“Hillside House struck me as a particularly welcoming B&B, the kind of place where the hosts anticipate every need. Nick's breakfasts alone, crafted from local ingredients, would be reason enough to book a stay; add in the comfortable rooms, beautiful garden views, and its proximity to Friday Harbor, and you have a place that feels both special and convenient.”
