Great location-the wildlife was just amazing.You can see Herring Cove from the patio. We saw a mama deer and her fawn in the yard and watched the bears catch salmon in the cove. Would definitely stay again. Recommend!

We had an amazing stay! Every evening we watched the bears eat a salmon dinner across the way, it is busy in that area with tourist during the day but that is okay we were out most of the day and who can blame them, the hatchery is so beautiful what an experience so we did mind at all.
