If you are a golfer, Nanticoke, Canada is the place for you. Nanticoke lies in the Ontario province of Canada on the northern edge of Lake Erie about 50 miles west of Buffalo, New York. Several great courses in the Nanticoke area offering stunning views of the lake while challenging the golfer with the wind blowing off it. These courses include the Sandusk Golf Club, Lynn Meadows Golf and Country Club and Coral Creek Golf Club. No hotels are available in Nanticoke proper, but several nice establishments are less than 15 minutes away in Port Dover.
Erie Beach Hotel
The small Erie Beach Hotel is nestled one block from the public Lake Erie beach, making it an ideal place to stay when not on the nearby links. The hotel has 18 rooms with two different options. The visitor can choose either a two-double guest room or a single queen guest room. The room size and rate is the same for either option. All rooms come equipped with a private bath, color TV, telephone and air-conditioning.
Located so close to the beach, the hotel does not indulge in luxury or further amenities. However, after a day at the beach or the links the patron can be hungry and The Erie Beach hotel has you covered. Two restaurants reside on site. The Terrace Lounge and the Cove Room are both attached to the hotel. The hotel does not offer room service, but the Terrace Lounge provides a take-out menu.
