Very good location on main street. Clean and well kept. Room was tiny, couldn't watch TV from the one chair, had to watch from the bed. TV was very poor and kept loosing signal. Bed very comfortable but too high for my short wife. Our view was nice out the street facing windows. Location close to the ferry dock is convenient.Didn't think it was a good value for the enormous price. Staff very nice and very helpful.

Would recommend Mission Point over the Grand Hotel without a doubt. Right on the lake, pleasant walk to downtown, fairly private but next to biking path. Just a wonderful experience all around. Check out the Paul McCartney show on-site if you have time. And do yourself a favor by sitting in the chairs that overlook the lake for a nice, relaxing pause from life!
