Things To Do
Snow Goose Produce
Quite possibly Zoe's favorite place in the Northwest!
La Conner Pub & Eatery
Fish and Chips.....and beer on the water! What more do you need?
La Conner Calico Cupboard Café & Bakery
Lovely breakfasts and pastries! (Also mimosas)
Taylor Shellfish Farms
Amazing Shellfish grown onsite! They do not take reservations. Just like the sea, show up and enjoy the waves!
Cama Beach Historical State Park
Quiet public beach access. Lots of short hiking trails though cedar and fir forests. Steep trails in spots. Day use only and $10 for WA State Park Access.
Mexico Cafe
Combination #8 Taco patty Best chips and salsa!
Ale Spike Camano Island Brewery
Tucked away amongst the airplane hangers of a small airport. Good drinks!
Canopy Tours NW - Zipline Tour, Team Building Challenge Course
Iverson Trail Preserve
Sadly, this spit is named after a different set of Iversons. Do not despair, the beach and views are still top notch!
Freedom Park Camano Island
Want to take the kiddos to a park with views of the water....this is your option. Also, there is a bar and a bakery within walking distance.
Deception Pass State Park
Nels used to go crabbing with his uncle Gail here around his August birthday. Nels' mom, Jean, wants nothing to do with the high and narrow bridge but the views and beaches are unbeatable. Beware of the water! Fast and dangerous currents.
Fort Casey State Park
One of three forts built in the 1890's to protect access to Seattle. The Iverson family used to stay in the officer's quarters during Christmas.
Moose Creek Barbeque
The BBQ restaurant catering the wedding. Owned and operated by Nels' uncle Howard and several of Nels' cousins. This restaurant is a delicious family joint.
Anacortes
Amazing coastal town with plenty to do. This is the launching point to the San Juan Islands
The Whale Museum
San Juan Island Brewing Co
Good beer and walk-able from the ferry dock and downtown Friday Harbor
Duck Soup Restaurant
Visiting San Juan Island (and have a car)? This is a lovely upscale yet rustic little restuarant in the woods just 10 min drive from Friday Harbor. Zoe and her mom, Janice, visited for Zoe's 29th birthday this past spring and had a wonderful time. Reservations recommended.
North Cascades National Park
~1 hour and 20 minutes from the venue is one of the most beautiful places in the lower 48 states. North Cascades National Park is one of the least visited NP in the US with amazing opportunities to enjoy nature on your own terms without distraction.
Olympic National Park
Have you ever wondered if Washington could get any rainier?! Here is the wettest place on the west coast. Walk through old growth temperate rain forests, and who knows, there is always a chance it won't rain.
