The ferry trip itself is about the same, an hour and a half because there are a couple of stops at other islands.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner admin_label=&#8221;Row&#8221;][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;3_4&#8243;][et_pb_image admin_label=&#8221;Image&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/flynngraphics.ca\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/baker-from-the-ferry.jpg&#8221; show_in_lightbox=&#8221;on&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;off&#8221; animation=&#8221;left&#8221; sticky=&#8221;off&#8221; align=&#8221;left&#8221; force_fullwidth=&#8221;off&#8221; always_center_on_mobile=&#8221;on&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;] [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column_inner][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;3_4&#8243;][et_pb_image admin_label=&#8221;Image&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/flynngraphics.ca\/family\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/orcas-dock.jpg&#8221; show_in_lightbox=&#8221;on&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;off&#8221; animation=&#8221;left&#8221; sticky=&#8221;off&#8221; align=&#8221;left&#8221; force_fullwidth=&#8221;off&#8221; always_center_on_mobile=&#8221;on&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;] [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner admin_label=&#8221;Row&#8221;][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;3_4&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Text&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;light&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;left&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Our Suite<\/h2>\n<p>This was really nice. We had two bedrooms, a living room, big kitchen and a great view! I had made a reservation for a nice suite but this exceeded our expectations.<\/p>\n<p>The resort is built around a very large mansion, built as a private home by Robert Moran, an American industrialist, over 100 years ago. He built ships in Seattle and at one point was mayor of that city. He built this home as a holiday getaway.<\/p>\n<p>The resort is on 40 forested acres of waterfront property. Suites have been created in outlying buildings that occupy the slopes above the water. Most have balconies with wonderful views.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner admin_label=&#8221;Row&#8221;][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;3_4&#8243;][et_pb_image admin_label=&#8221;Image&#8221;
