We had a lovely stay at the Braes room. It was ensuite with a set of chairs and coffee table, in addition to the dresser and a good sized walk in closet. The views were phenomenal. We just sat there and watched the water, otters swimming and the ferry coming to and fro. Our hosts were helpful and kind.
