We absolutely love the location at Snug Harbor resort. The cabin was perfectly located within the bay, and the staff was extremely helpful and friendly.
Very clean rooms and overall the staff was friendly and helpful! Peaceful and very quiet and serene. We would love to come back with the rest of the family!!
Tucked in quiet secluded area, very peaceful. Loved that the cabin had big wide windows where you could see the water early morning and during dawn.
The staff was very friendly and helpfu too.
This is such a cute resort! We loved our time here. The cabins are very clean and well stocked. Very quiet, beautiful views. Free firewood provided for bonfires and no charge to rent their kayaks. We will be back for sure!
Convenient parking close to unit. We stayed in the lodge building rather than a cabin and felt more private. Roche Harbor nearest for fabulous shops and restaurants.
Our family was lucky enough to stay at Snug Harbor during April of 2026. We loved it so much we are planning on going back next year. The staff went out of their way to help us get checked in, made us feel comfortable and even made us coffee. Everything you need is right here on property. The cabins are very comfortable.
easy parking, reserved spots for your cabin, front desk was amazing and drew up a map of recommendations during our trip! not a price of dust in the cabin, so clean, love the fire pits and games they also offer. we will definitely be back!!
This is a first class resort, The staff was incredible and the cabins were pure luxury. The scenery of the bay and marina is incredible. Pure relaxation !!!!
We just stayed at Snug Harbor for 3 nights and absolutely LOVED our time at the resort. Our cabin was so clean, beautifully decorated with lots of wood to give it the rustic feel but with modern, very comfortable couch and chairs in the living room, and comfortable beds. It is about a 15-20 minute drive to Friday Harbor which has shops and restaurants, but then you come back to the piece and quiet of the resort.
We walked down the docks and saw beautiful sunsets while we there. They have kayaks, outdoor fire pits, games, puzzles, movies you can use while staying at the resort. a wonderful little shop and a little coffee shop. We were impressed by all the details and "little" things that really make your visit special. And the grounds were just stunning! There were even a couple of seals that were hanging around a rock island near the dock.
It's perfect for families, friends and couples! We would HIGHLY recommend staying at Snug Harbor and we can't wait to go back there!

check in after hours was super easy and clear, the lodging was very clean, had everything you would need, i honestly wish we stayed longer !
Modern clean cabins near the water. Immaculate grounds and marina. Quiet calming vibe at this wonderful resort. Full disclosure our stay just a Sunday and Monday night in April. I'm sure there is a bit more noise and activity during peak summertime visits at this beautiful resort. Good parking near beach front cabins. Bring provisions if you don't want to drive 20 minutes each way for eats. Cabins have a fully functional kitchen plus an outside gas grill. A beautiful spot. Can't wait to visit again.
We stayed in a harbor facing room with 2 bedrooms. And it was a great stay. Especially the heating of the room was excellent which created a very cozy stay. Really appreciate the view, the stay and the cleanliness.
Very clean, spacious and has everything you need to spend 2 or 3 days disconnecting from day to day life and connecting with nature. I’d love to come back again soon! Staff were very informative and friendly.
