西海灘假日公園(West Beach Resort)

Such a quaint resort. Loved our little cabin on the beach. We had a bonfire one night on the beach in front of our cabin. A memory that will be one of our best memories ever. Staff is helpful and friendly. Cabin was very clean and comfy.

The property is huge and many options, cabins, glamping tents, rv, and tent camping. There is a general store, the rooms come furnished with dishes, pans, glassware and flatware. There is a stove/oven, refrig, micro and coffee maker.

The service and friendly atmosphere is what brings me back every year. We've stayed in the tent cabins and this year we are staying in a cabin. My grandson finds friends to play with every year. We just love the icecream. We explore all over from swimming, fishing and kayaking at the lake to hiking and biking all over. Oh, and the most amazing skate park in Eastsound. Orcas island and West Beach Resort is one of our favorite places.

Our cabin on the bay was lovely, clean, peaceful, and offered a very comfortable place to stay for a couple days. Bedrooms are small with few places to put luggage but we were one couple in a two bedroom cabin so were free to use the second room. The small kitchen was well equipped and the bathroom was large and warm. The electric fireplace added extra ambiance to the cabin.

Stunning, well kept property. Office staff was unfriendly and unhelpful. So much so that we left early and lost money. I tried to upgrade to a cabin to make our stay more pleasant but when I asked if any were open, the office manager told me she wasn’t sure if any were available. And that was it. Didn’t want to check. Didn’t care or ask why we were checking out early. Nothing. This was just one example of the “customer service” received. Would return if under new management. So much potential here.

Right on the water, close to town, everything was great with the exception of the stove. It had the heat output to the equivalent of a warming pad.

The location of this small resort is wonderful. It used to be our favorite place on Orcas. However, it has become over priced for the small and modest accommodations offered. Cabins are tidy but not fully equipped for much cooking or comfort. The cost per night for a one bedroom cabin was more than staying at Rosario or other higher quality hotels with comfortable beds. Cigarette butts around the cabin are indicative of high occupancy and quick turnover without attention given the to areas surrounding the cabin. While the people working there were nice, they seemed rather dismissive of the needs of their guests. Their terms for rental are not made clear, so ask questions before booking and be sure to know all added costs. Definitely make sure you get your confirmations if you book. Cute place, but can’t see the value.

I have always loved West Beach, and my love for this place prompted my entire family to come here for an entire week during busy season for the last 4 years. This year it has been one nightmare after another. First off, we made an in person reservation for our cabin at the end of our trip last year and didn’t get saved in their system so we lost our coveted cabin for this year. We managed to secure a different cabin, at an exhorbitantly high cost (literally more than what we spend on an ocean front luxury condo in Hawaii for 10 days) and then they failed to send the booking confirmation. We ended up arriving a week early because that was what we originally had planned, only to discover after 6 hours of travel that the cabin we booked was for a different week, all because they never sent a confirmation and failed to book as requested for the second time. We even called about our reservation before we arrived to make sure all was in order, and the front desk person never even checked the reservation as we found out later. When we arrived on site at 10pm and complained about never being sent a confirmation, they sent the confirmation, and not before. Management was smug, uncompassionate and rude. My 85 year old Mother was struggling with a door for several minutes while management looked on and NEVER offered to help with the locked door. We finally had to ask her to step over to assist after she gawked at us. This after being turned away with no accommodations for the night. Then we arrived back the following week for our reservation … more problems. The last 4 years I have always stayed in a tent outside of our rented cabin. I’m fact we have had 2 tents to accommodate myself and my friend. We had our tents set up every week for the full time and never once was it an issue in plain view of management and maintenance. This year I show up, and surprise tents aren’t allowed due to fire code. So for the second time in two weeks I show up at West Beach without a place to sleep. They are charging us for 3 people that can’t even fit in a one bedroom cabin and now my friend and I have no place to stay because of their “surprise” policy change. We are SO done with West Beach. I’m sorry that my favorite place was soured by horrible management and price gouging.

Stayed here for a few nights in an RV hook up. Lovely place. Quiet and family friendly. Helpful staff. Fire pits and BBQ facilities next to each site. Shower block clean but need to pay for showers - 1 quarter per minute. No hot water at washing up station.
