Wife and I NEED to get away for awhile.(stressed out).Need some peace and quiet and some ocean view. Thinking about going down in that area for a few days. Only a 1 1/2 hours away. Chevelle will stay home,(too wet out, and one broken ex.valve,so far).
Haven't be there for years. Any suggestions where to stay, good meals,drives,etc. Good prices would help. Thanks for any help

Hey Don,

Are you on vancouver island or the mainland? If you are on the island you could take the Black Ball ferry and this would be even closer. If you are in Vancouver its a little further to drive.

Here's the link to an awesome B&B that my wife and I stayed at on our honeymoon. It's located between Port Angeles and Port Townsend on a bluff overlooking the strait.

We stayed in the "Cedar" which is a private cabin. The breakfast included was incredible and the owners were very friendly and helpful with recomendations for local restaurants, etc.

We will definitely be going back.:thumbsup:

If You want to get off the "beaten" path, head over to La Conner. Same as Anacaortes, just smaller, and more laid back. Plus if You need to get to the "Big" city of Anacortes, it's only 20 mins away.

Thanks guys. Definetely stopping at La Conner,Deception Pass State park, Taking the scenic Chuckanut Dr. down from Bellingham. Got a great deal in Oak Habour for lodging.
Maybe on the way home I'll pick a little somethin' up just for me. Like anew set of heads, 383 stroker kit?
