My father recently passed away and my mom, sister and I were in need of a "re-bonding/building" time. We were looking for a perfect getaway place to accomplish this and found it at the Bartwood Lodge. We searched for a place on the beach, room with a view, two beds and possibly a fireplace. We found it at the Bartwood!... more

We were at the Bartwood for only one night but that was one night too many. Extremely sub-standard mattresses on the two double beds made sleeping nearly impossible. Spring coils could be felt and heard! We received no satisfaction from proprietors when commenting on the condition of beds in room 27. I can look past the shabby exterior, the older... more

We had read the reviews of the Bartwood and noticed that although the older reviews were not that good, the more recent reviews were very good. We decided to book a weekend and were very happy with the facilites and managers. The room was very clean and comfortable. The location is central to everything on the island. We spent a... more

My wife and I made our fifth visit to Orcas Island just last week. Over the last few years, we have stayed in a lot of places on the island, but Bartwood was definately our best stay yet. The rooms were clean, the staff was friendly, and it wasn't like staying in Russia (stayed at Rosario last year and it... more

It has been a few years since we stayed at the Bartwood Lodge, but it remains one of my family's all time favorites. My kids, who are much older now and have been to 4 and 5 star resorts all over the world, still talk about our trip to Bartwood and the tidepools and wildlife that were right outside our... more

We stayed at Bartwood Lodge in April and although the weather was dismal we really enjoyed our stay. We had a second floor room with a king bed and a newly remodeled bathroom. The room was very clean, comfortable and nicely furnished. Since the weather was so cold and wet we spent lots of time in our room enjoying the... more

My husband, 11 year old daughter and I just returned from a 2 night stay on Orcas Island. We stayed in room 21 at the Bartwood Lodge after doing some research online. I noted that most of the other reviews of this property were hit and miss and were from a couple of years ago. Decided to give it a... more

The location is great. The beach and the view were all you could expect. The commercial area of East Sound is less than 10 minutes away. The condition of the facility shows considerable wear and aging. Poor door fit, carpets worn, light switch plate uncovered. Our room had a great view and good beds. The drapes needed replacing. There was... more

We are just back from a 4 night stay. Bartwood Lodge sits on a wonderful, peaceful beach (rocky, not sandy though). The kids had a wonderful time on the beach while I watched from the comfort of the deck. We saw a bald eagle everyday we were there. The rooms were clean and very nice. Especially for a beachfront property.... more
