Samish Island is part of the San Juan islands "Banana Belt", which means we get substantially less rainfall and more sunshine than inland. This allows for year round outdoor activities including Beachcombing, Bicycling, Kayaking, and Hiking. Enjoy Island living without the expense of a ferry!

The island is half way between the exciting cities of Seattle and Vancouver. It's also just a short distance from beautiful Chuckanut drive and the coastal towns of Anacortes, Edison, Fairhaven and La Conner. Wonderful dining and shopping experiences await you at each stop.

 Every season offers something new to see and do. Winter is here and it's a great time to enjoy the island. Come watch the storms on the bay and the eagles soaring overhead from this cozy retreat. There are still dates available on our calendar. Reserve your weekend or week now!
