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.

First room had an inop TV. Broken window. Missing refrigerator and a leak in the bathroom ceiling that dripped water and had been there long enough for black mold to form. Second room was ok

8.8/10 Excellent! (740 reviews)
Great stay, right by the ferry terminal. Staff were very helpful. Drivers were great and helpful with pick up and drop offs. Restaurants were great, staff were wonderful with my 6 year old and his desires for plain food, they made fish especially for him with ā€œnone of the extrasā€, plus a side of ketchup.
