Ward Lake Tours

A gravel path leading through a forested area with a wooden structure on the right.
When it's time to take a rest from the rigors of sightseeing, unwind in the sun at Ward Lake. Pack a picnic or your favorite book ... This is the place to switch to relax mode!

You'll soon see why this Revillagigedo Island body of water is popular with travelers. If you're looking for other things to see here, Creek Street, Dolly's House Museum, and Totem Bight State Park are in this area as well. They won't take long to get to from Ward Lake.

The main issue wasnt the hotel or the staff, it was Expedia itself Didn't recognize my visa but was able to be pushed to the hotel itself

8.8/10 Excellent! (805 reviews)
I was greeted warmly. I had a lot of luggage because I was trying to get home, but flights were delayed. They locked my big bags in a storage area so I did not have to take them to my room. The courtesy van driver was very nice and helped with my luggage onto the cart to get back over to the airport.

8.4/10 Very Good! (233 reviews)
Perfect if you're not planning on spending time around or in the hotel. Just a place to sleep and eat if you bring in your own food. Just not a "resort" style property intended to be the center of your trip.
