At Captain Whidbey, the guest rooms have been meticulously created to combine modern beauty with rustic charm. You'll discover a place that seems like a comfortable refuge whether you choose a room in the historic lodge, which has original log walls and vintage furnishings, or a more modern cabin tucked away among the trees. Every accommodation is different and has something to offer everyone, from cozy, private areas that are great for a romantic retreat to roomy cabins that are perfect for gatherings of family or friends. Many of the rooms provide breathtaking views of the lagoon or the beautiful, forested environs. The rooms are nicely furnished with a combination of antique and contemporary furniture. Each window's natural beauty provides a soothing environment for rest.
