Covid 19 information - Helpful Travel Tips
What to Expect at the Inn
Be assured that we, a licensed/inspected/insured/permitted bed and breakfast lodging provider are committed to your health and safety!
Lodging is deemed an essential business in the state of Washington. People choose to travel for various reasons - work, caring for loved ones, recreation and more. Balancing travel needs with safety, we are taking a very precautionary approach to the situation. We closed our doors for a couple months to do our part to limit exposure as the state and nation determined the best path to healing. When the Governor of Washington communicated a phased approach to recovery and with that announcement we opened our doors with precautions and recommendations from our hotel/lodging association, science, and local, county and state guidelines. With this approach we are happy to say things are getting back towards a level of normalcy. Yay! A few highlights of our local Covid 19 information follows of what you’ll see here at the inn when you arrive:
- We follow recommended and mandated practices for lodging facilities in our state.
- Personal Protection. Masks are available if desired or needed and you will see hand sanitizer at points of entry/exit. You have your own bathroom with plenty of soap for hand washing. Common areas and surfaces (doorknobs, light switches, etc.) are sanitized routinely.
- Common space / fellow guests. We encourage vaccinations for the virus, and, we ask you to respect other guests' decisions on how they address their needs with masks and other practices. This is for your and your fellow guest's protection.
- Dining. We continue to serve our multi-course breakfasts with what we have from the greenhouse and what we find at our local farm/grocery suppliers! You will have a couple seating times and locations available as necessary to allow for personal space as needed. Please arrive at your chosen time to allow for proper seating and spacing.
- Restaurants. Our local establishments are open and all follow the state guidelines and mandates for dine-in, takeout and delivery options.
- Most, if not all county, state and national parks are open for your enjoyment (weather dependent as always). Beach and trail hikes, biking, bird watching, sunsets and more are available for you – just respect your fellow explorer’s personal space. Some of the area tribal lands have remained closed to the public - you may want to verify access prior to a visit.
Our geographic location, low population density, vaccination rate and compliant residents here on the Olympic Peninsula have resulted in very low cases of the virus. Every few weeks the community moves to more normal levels of activity.
