Unfortunately I didn't do as much research of the island as I should of. If you want to completely get out of dodge then you should stay here, there is nothing and it's very very quiet. When we got to the place we kinda wondered around looking for a person, when we found the office no one was there just... More

Thank you for the valuable comments about the Deer Harbor Inn. It is true that the Deer Harbor Inn is in a small hamlet without much of a town but we feel the is the charm of the Inn. Our rural location is close to whale watching,kayaking and sailing. We try to be in the office when ferries arrive and... More

With 'inn' in the name, I expected a little more. The rooms in lodge are what you see. No complaints there. I was disappointed with the lack of hospitality. I am a visitor that likes to see the owner and be greeted with a face. The person to person interaction really makes a place what it is. I adored the... More

We used a Travelzoo deal to visit Deer Harbor Inn during April. The overall experience was very relaxing. On first approach to the property it seemed a little more rustic than I expected. But the Pond cottage, where we were staying, is very well furnished with modern amenities and made the stay very comfortable. The place is not run like... More

We had a trip planned to the Deer Harbor Inn for our anniversary. Unfortunately, our son ended up in the hospital and we had to cancel. I understand we were too close to the arrival date to get any sort of refund and I am cool with that. What I was not cool with was the completed lack of sympathy... More

When we arrived at the Inn, we went to the office and it had a note on the door to either open the sliding glass door to get your key off the table or to ring the doorbell for help. The door was locked so I rang the bell four times with no answer. We decided to go explore the... More

I was pleased with my stay. The lodge has an old cabin charm. Old decor and log cabin feel. But it was very clean and had more amenities than I needed. We missed the 6pm ferry so had to take the 8pm boat. Because of this we were late checking. No worries, our welcome package was in the office waiting... More

I was so very excited to come to Orcas Island. I had bought a Groupon for a 2 night stay and couldn't wait. The web site for the cabins said "Built on a knoll overlooking the tranquil Harbor and majestic Mountains on the Olympic Peninsula". I invisioned a great cabin with a view of the harbor. On the groupon they... More

My best friend and I stayed here for 3 days/2 nights to celebrate our "20-year anniversary". We got what we wanted - a nice, quiet place away from schedules and commitments. W enjoyed the fireplace, COMFY bed, coffee, dvd player and hot tub. We didn't see a single person the entire time we were there (besides the owner who restocked... More

The Pond Cabin was lovely and clean; a nice location. Since we were traveling from quite a distance (not locals), we did not bring groceries and were looking forward to breakfast every morning, as was advertised. A basic breakfast was provided the first day and nothing the second. When inquiring about this afterwards (never saw the owners during our weekend... More
