Getting to Kiana Lodge

Kiana Lodge is located at 14976 Sandy Hook Rd NE, Poulsbo, WA. The most common way to get to Kiana Lodge is via the Bainbridge Island ferry from the Seattle waterfront. It is a 35 minute crossing time. Please allow extra time for ferries. Plan to arrive at least an hour prior to departure times. Driving and ferry directions from Seattle, Edmonds, Tacoma, Bremerton, and Silverdale can be found via the link below. Uber, Lyft and cabs are available on the island, but there will likely not be a critical mass of available cars. There is a shuttle from Clearwater Casino Resort to the wedding venue. Aside from that, please prepare travel arrangements in advance.
