We love the James Bay Inn...and especially their superb restaurant and staff. Recent renovations were well executed with the possible exception of the kiddy-sized toilet?!!!!!🤔. Not, unfortunately, wheelchair friendly. Even those not handicapped find the steep entry staircase and lack of interior elevator a challenge when manhandling luggage.
