"We cater to fishermen"

Let us tell you about ourselves and what you will find on your visit:

• Lewiston NY is bordered on the west by the mighty and world famous Niagara River, known for the mightiest of all King Salmon and Washington Strain Steelhead Trout. The river divides the United States Border and Canada. Our historic Village welcomes fishermen from all over the world that come here to not only fish the Mighty Niagara but to take in the sights of the surrounding area and to visit our quaint Village shops and other attractions.
   
• Of course there are many other species of game fish waiting for you. The Niagara holds abundant amounts of Lake Trout, Atlantic Salmon, Brown Trout, Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, Muskellunge, Yellow Perch and even more. It doesn't matter what season you arrive, there is always fishing going on.
   
• Lake Ontario is only minutes away and you can travel by boat or you can trailer to the Old Fort Niagara State Park boat launch and find some of the finest river & lake drift fishing found anywhere. On the road trailering your boat, you will drive along the scenic route of the Lower Niagara along River Road [18F] and take in some spectacular views of the Lower Niagara as it winds it's way to the lake. There is a boat launch there waiting for you.
   
• The Lewiston public boat launch is located just a few blocks at the end of our main street which is Center Street and that has many fine & world class eating & dining establishments, bakeries, banks, churches, supermarket, gas, antiques, bait & tackle shops and anything else you might need during your visit. The Portage House Motel is only 2 blocks from Center Street where you can walk to many of these establishments.
   
• There is a new public state-of-the-art fish cleaning station located right near the launch ramp and oodles of car & trailer parking right next to it. [Free use of cleaning station and free parking]
   
• If you need to charter a boat, we can help you with that too. We have several licensed Charter Captain friends that will be eager to accommodate you. "We cater and we care" 

Our rooms are bright, clean, modern and comfortable and each room features cable TV, wireless internet access, refrigerators, air conditioning, of course, showers, plus we have a lounge area with a public phone where you can sit and relax, read, or even chat with other visitors. [Or tell fish stories]
