About This Business

Beach Haven Resort, nestled on the picturesque Orcas Island, has been a tranquil retreat for guests seeking rustic beauty and serenity since 1939. This waterfront resort is uniquely bordered by one of the last remaining old-growth forests on the island, providing a habitat for a variety of wildlife, including bald eagles, deer, otters, and seals. The resort's traditional log cabins, each equipped with a wood-burning stove and waterfront deck, offer a cozy and distraction-free escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, thanks to the absence of televisions, telephones, and internet access. Guests can indulge in numerous activities just steps from their cabin, including walking on the private beach, rowing a boat, paddling a kayak or canoe, playing horseshoes, or simply relaxing by one of the two fire pits. The resort's proximity to Eastsound means that while guests can unwind in a peaceful environment, they are also just minutes away from shopping, dining, and recreational activities. Beach Haven Resort caters to a wide range of visitors, from couples looking for a romantic getaway to families, corporate groups, and solo travelers. The resort operates year-round, with varying hours from October to March and April to September, and can be reached at 360 376 2288 or through email at [email protected]. For those planning to visit, especially during the peak summer season, it's worth noting that the resort is fully booked with returning guests from June to mid-September, making it advisable to plan visits during other times of the year. With its unique blend of natural beauty, tranquility, and accessibility to amenities, Beach Haven Resort on Orcas Island is an ideal destination for anyone seeking a genuine escape and connection with nature.

Disillusioned by the Lack of Modernity

I must admit, the idea of a tranquil retreat surrounded by old-growth forests and diverse wildlife at Beach Haven Resort sounded like the perfect escape. However, my experience was marred by the very aspects that were supposed to be its selling points. The absence of televisions, telephones, and internet access, which I initially thought would be a welcome respite, quickly became a source of frustration. In today's digital age, being completely cut off from the world is not just inconvenient, but for someone like me who works remotely, it was a significant drawback. The traditional log cabins, while quaint, felt more like a step back in time than a cozy retreat, especially with the wood-burning stove being the only source of heat and the lack of modern amenities. The activities provided, such as rowing a boat or playing horseshoes, seemed more suited to a summer camp than a resort catering to a wide range of visitors, including those seeking a romantic getaway or corporate retreats. The private beach was indeed beautiful, but the overall experience felt like it was lacking the refinement and modern comforts that one would expect from a resort, especially considering its reputation and the prices charged. Perhaps the most disappointing aspect was the realization that the resort seems to cater more to its returning clientele, with newcomers feeling like outsiders, especially during the peak summer season when it's fully booked. For those seeking a genuine escape and connection with nature, Beach Haven Resort might still offer something unique, but for me, it was a reminder that sometimes, a little bit of modernity can go a long way in enhancing, rather than detracting from, the natural experience.
