We loved our lovely Parsian hosts who came here 12 years ago to be near a daughter. It's a lovely, quiet and supremely comfortable in, surrounded by an animal refuge, organic kitchen garden, and the sea smells of Orcas Island. We hope to book Thanksgiving there!

The grounds are fantastic. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The Breakfasts are absolutely delicious. A great place to stay.

Highly Recommend: During our first trip to Orcas Island, my husband and I had the pleasure of staying at Henri & Nicole's B&B - we were delightfully surprised!

We received AMAZING service (we are pretty sure Henri is a mind reader), delicious breakfast in our suite, and... More

Hosts Nicole and Henri had a wonderful dinner waiting for me (a special order) and my perfectly quiet room overlooking the pond and grounds was lovely. For background music during dinner... More
