Overall a positive experience, the staff was great, the grounds are beautiful. I do not feel like the room was worth the value paid. I stayed in the main lodge and you can hear everything around you. You can clearly hear conversations next door, outside, and below.

Such a beautiful old historic lodge. It was super great for nostalgic purposes. Beautiful view of Penn Cove from our room, superb cocktails and dessert from the bar, roaring fireplace in the lounge, clean and spacious shared bathrooms. Slow bar and dessert service from the lounge but to be fair there were only 3 women serving the entire very busy restaurant. Front desk was very efficient. It was fun to explore the well maintained grounds. We will always stay here anytime we visit anywhere on Whidbey Island and will definitely recommend it to friends.

Beautiful property and location. All of the jet noise was a bit unexpected. Interesting side note, it’s cheaper to reserve a room on-line than it is in person. We reserved a room while we were in line.

We stayed in a lagoon room. Our room did not have any bolsters on the daybed, so the only place to sit in the room was effectively on the kingbed, which is wierldly low to the ground. There is a wooden bench, which is fine for putting your luggage on it but would be cruel to expect someone to relax upon it. I would suggest they change out the daybeds for a sofabed. There was no fridge in the room despite the nor throw blanket on the bed,altho the pretty pictures indicated there might be. I can't speak to the quality of the food, we were unable to eat dinner saturday or sunday brunch as we had no reservation, and a full breakfast was not available on monday morning, although they did have a small takeout coffee bar with limited number of items. The setting is wonderful and want to relax with a book in the outdoor chairs this is the perfect spot.
