Being a destination restaurant has its advantages.  Our customers will take the time to get to places they value.  Places like the Manor.  And events in the surrounding area.

Do you have an event you think our customers would like to attend?  Give us information and a website to check out, and we'll make sure they are posted to our website. 

 

Be sure to take a look at our Things to Do page for lots of everyday options.  We do live in a bit of paradise.  Enjoy it!

Have you ever taken the Studio Tour on Camano Island?  Originally held over Mother's Day weekend, it expands in 2010 to include an encore weekend!  The guide features over 35 stops and 61 local artists. 

This is a self-guided tour, meaning you can design your own experience as you meet with local artists to not only appreciate their work, but learn how it was made, where it was inspired and what it means to the artist. The story behind the art, together with your experience with it on this tour, is what turns something that is simply beautiful, into something meaningful.

The perfect ending to a great day trip is dinner at the Manor - relaxing with a glass of wine and enjoying the sunset. 

Millions of visitors enjoy the Tulip Festival each year.  Now's the time!  The fields are turning into a rainbow of color.  Be sure to check out the Bloom Map to select your route.  Irises begin when the tulips end.

 

The best time to drive the Skagit fields is during the week. Plan a morning outing with friends, then stop by the Manor for lunch.  Or spend the night in our 2 bedroom suite B & B and make it an adventure!
