So cozy, & so beautiful! Wonderful amenities, like toiletries, coffee/tea, makeup towel. Lots of outlets, comfortable bed, soft pillows, & warm blankets! Great view, gorgeous property. The room & buildings are stylish— traditional, but elegant. Perfect islands style look & feel. Booking & checking in was easy, & simple! Had a great bath, & was particularly thankful for the fan, as i enjoy the circulating air, & white noise. Would very happily come back to stay here again. Thanks so much for having me!

Everything was great except that we did not receive clear instructions on accessing our room, and our GPS led us to one of the cottages rather than the main lodge

Unfortunately, we woke up after the first night to ants all over the table, sink and windowsills where they were coming in. They continued throughout our visit.

We had a lovely stay @ Deer Harbor Inn. Debbie was the perfect host, making us feel comfortable and welcome. The property is lovely, and the location is great. I would highly recommend Deer Harbor Inn, and we would definitely return should we have the luck to return to Orcas.

Late notification of how important it is to reserve ferry ride several days in advance, hard to find room if you arrive at night as it is poorly lit and lacking in lit up signage. Room was very clean but it is old and small but it was quite clean. We passed on the restaurant on the propert after seeing the sweaty chef in the kitchen. The property has potential even though it’s old but we are accustomed to places a bit better maintained. Orcas Island is about enjoying the great Northwest and we still had a good time.

We were lucky to score a lodge room in the busy month of August. The property is older but feels homey. We enjoyed our stay, dinner at Matthew’s BBQ, daily walks to the marina and kayaking. We made use of the fridge and coffee maker in the room and there’s plenty of parking. It felt very safe and there are some nice views of the water. There is no AC so we kept the windows open and could hear some road traffic but it’s not constant. The upstairs plumbing and floors are louder if you’re on the 1st floor. They provide a # to call and we did have to call once about a problem in our room and the lady on the phone made it clear she was annoyed which was weird, kind of funny but also a little uncomfortable. However, a nice older gentleman came over right away and took care of things. All in all, you’re mostly on your own, but should have all you need. It’s great to have Matthew’s BBQ on site for a great meal (but it’s closed some weekdays) and the lawn area with toys feels like you’re at a family picnic. Some toys (ping pong table and rubber axe throw) are warped and need to be replaced. Would be nice if the Inn made more info available about the foot path to the marina, tidepooling, breakfast options, distances/directions to other key attractions because Wi-Fi is spotty once you leave the lodge. But maybe half the fun is figuring it all out on your own. Overall we had a beautiful trip. Thank you Deer Harbor Inn!

Would love to stay there again.

I am very pleased with my stay at Deer Harbor Inn. It’s charming, rustic, and very peaceful. I stayed in the main lodge, room 1 with 2 two twin beds. Here’s what I appreciated about the place. • The room is well appointed with coffee maker, fridge, hair dryer and plenty of towels. Nice toiletries too! • WiFi is also good. • Check in was easy as they send you a code in an email 24 hrs beforehand • Foyer has microwave and icemaker with cups and extras for your coffee bar. • Matthew’s Smokehouse and Island Pie Pizza are just a stroll away. • Super comfortable mattresses • While not the fanciest place it was extremely clean

At check-in we never gmet a human being or got a response to our text message asking whether we could check in. The room was pleasant and had a nice view of the water. Based on the listing we thought the restaurant next door offered breakfast, but it does not, so we had to drive a ways to eat breakfast.
