Roche Harbor Resort , San Juan Island
Once a lime kiln factory , Roche Harbor Resort is nestled beside a protected marina on the Northern end of San Juan Island . The breathtaking grounds feature manicured gardens , a picturesque chapel and hotel , and multiple dining options . There ’ s a plethora of accommodations from which to choose , some with fireplaces and some without . But as long as you make it to Lime Kiln Café for a freshly made donut , it really doesn ’ t matter where you stay .
