All guests will need a pass to board the ferry. Contact the owners for this pass prior to your arrival. The round trip cost for the ferry is $25.00 for 20 feet and under vehicle and driver and $5.00 per passenger.

A quick 11 minute ride will take you to the island where you will meet the resident deer (which are so tame you can feed them by hand). Look for bald eagles and osprey as they soar around the island, pods of killer whales as well as seal pups as they soak up the warm summer sun.

The cabin Is located on one of the quietest roads on the island, across from the Nature Park, a wildlife refuge. At the cabin you will find two large decks, one facing west, the other facing east for relaxing, outdoor dining etc... two hammocks in a grove of alder trees make a comfortable place to pass away an afternoon... two beaches, one with a swimming area and marina, one undeveloped, are both within 1/2 mile walking distance of the cabin.

All bedding and towels, cooking utensils and appliances provided (sorry, no microwave or cable but the TV is great for watching DVD blu-ray movies). No Smoking, please.
