Make the Most of Your Grand Island Stay

Cultural attractions and natural beauty

Grand Island sits in the Niagara River between Buffalo and Niagara Falls, connected to the mainland by twin steel truss bridges. This 28-square-mile river community offers a quieter alternative to its famous neighbors while providing direct access to both. Beaver Island State Park anchors the southern end with 950 acres of riverfront recreation, including an 18-hole golf course, marina, and the historic River Lea farmhouse where President Grover Cleveland once visited. The northern tip features Buckhorn Island State Park, an 895-acre ecological preserve where wetlands and meadows attract migratory waterfowl and offer peaceful trails.

Dining and local character

The island maintains a family-oriented atmosphere where life centers on outdoor activities. Dick and Jenny's brings New Orleans-inspired cuisine to the island, while Ellden's Grill at River Oaks Golf Club provides upscale dining with course views. Kelly's Country Store, operating for over 50 years in a traditional red barn, offers artisanal chocolates and regional gifts. The 8-mile West River Shoreline Trail transforms a former highway into a vehicle-free path along the Niagara River.

Strategic location

Grand Island's position makes it an excellent base for exploring Western New York and Southern Ontario. Niagara Falls State Park sits 15 minutes north, while Buffalo's revitalized waterfront lies 20 minutes south. The Canadian wine region of Niagara-on-the-Lake is 45 minutes away. Members can use miles to secure accommodations on this peaceful island while maintaining easy access to major attractions.
