Discover an island vacation that you can experience in the off season. 
The beautiful San Juan Island of Washington state presents a getaway where you can unwind in style and comfort, away from the hustle-bustle of the cities and the distractions of daily life. Resting beside quiet Mitchell Bay, Snug Harbor Marina Resort is the answer to your next island retreat.
Snug Harbor is a popular summer destination but the fun doesn’t end when the weather gets cooler. Plan your trip during their off season, anytime between October and May, and experience plenty of exciting opportunities that will keep you entertained every second of your stay. The resort is located on five acres beside the bay and offers its own 63-slip marina! They’re one of only two marinas on the west side of the island, making it an ideal setting for your outdoor adventure. Take out your boat and explore the calm waters on a fishing or crabbing trip, or just bask in the views and keep your eyes open for the occasional whale! Snug Harbor actually hosts the Center for Whale Research Vessels and the Whale Museum’s Soundwatch Program, so you’re sure to catch some incredible sights. If you’d rather watch from the land, head over to Whale Watch Park, located just a few miles south of the resort.
Of course, that’s just the beginning! For a little more excitement, join Crystal Seas for sea kayaking tours that take you through the snowcapped Cascade and Olympic Mountain Ranges. You can choose from three-hour, sunset and full-day tours with small group sizes of up to eight people. And if that’s not enough to raise your spirits, take a break from the water to explore the beautiful San Juan Vineyards where all their wines are produced and bottled at their winery on Roche Harbor Road. You can also spend an afternoon at the San Juan Country Club which features a 9-hole links-style course that’s open to the public!
When you’re ready to relax after a long day, Snug Harbor has you covered. 
Their 17 cabins and three suites each offer plenty of space, beautiful interiors with vaulted ceilings and breathtaking views of the island and water. Named #1 for San Juan accommodations by TripAdvisor, you’re guaranteed to feel right at home throughout your stay.
“We worked very hard to have our guests experience a ‘wow moment’ when they open the door to their cabin,” said resort owner Erik Nelson. With expansive windows that bring in tons of natural light, fully equipped kitchens, flat-screen televisions and gas grills in each unit, you’re likely to say more than just “wow.” Their waterfront cabins are less than 50 feet from their spacious pebble beach, while waterview cabins are located right behind those on a slight rise in the meadow, offering you easy access out to the shore.
This kind of spectacular waterfront experience can’t be found anywhere else on San Juan Island. That’s what makes Snug Harbor the perfect destination not only for your family vacation, but for a romantic couple’s retreat or even as the venue for your corporate meeting, wedding, or reunion. Their charming Event Room can host up to 60 guests for an intimate and inspiring affair that everyone will remember for years to come. No matter if you’re planning a group retreat or time away with the family, Snug Harbor offers the best accommodations in the best location on stunning San Juan Island.
