Quaint housekeeping cottages steps from the beach
Dear Guest Family,
Thank you for riding this Covid roller coaster with us!
We look forward to providing a restful and restorative getaway that so many of us need especially now. Moving into the fall, Covid strictures have been eased slightly by San Juan County. At present we require a 4-5 night minimum stay as long as Covid restrictions are in effect, through the end of November. We will be closed Dec 1 2020 until mid March 2021.
You may book directly online, or call to make a booking by phone.
Our office is staffed 10:30-2:30 daily (except Wednesdays). You are welcome to leave a voicemail or send an email any time!
Be safe and stay healthy – we hope to see you soon!
– RuthAnne, Andrew, Erik, Opal & Craig
North Beach Inn: Orcas Island Pet Friendly Lodging
Our thirteen housekeeping cottages are dotted along our expansive private beach on the north shore of Orcas Island, a perfect setting for romantic retreats or family gatherings; for kids or dogs; for playing or relaxing.
With their spacing and wooded setting our quaint beachfront cabins offer a sense of privacy and peace that’s hard to find elsewhere. Kids and dogs love to play on our beach (one-third mile of rare no-bank, pebble and sand), among the finest in the San Juan Islands, with sweeping views towards the Canadian gulf islands to the north-west, and dramatic sunsets.
The Lodge, once the resort dining room, is suitable for many types of events

Location:
North Beach Inn on Orcas Island is located just a couple of miles from the village of Eastsound (the island’s main commercial center) where you will find a relatively large, well-stocked grocery store, a number of restaurants, coffee shops, and unique artisan shops. There is also a liquor store, a movie theater, and an internet café. Being near Eastsound, WA means we are less than half-an-hour’s drive west to the ferry landing or east to Moran State Park.
The ever-changing ocean
Turning down our road you will venture through over half a mile of woods and fields before even reaching the cottages and beach. So although centrally located and close to most of the San Juan Islands’ many amenities, we are able to maintain a sense of isolation.
