Friday Harbor Grand - A hilltop bed and breakfast with gourmet breakfasts, private suites, and live piano music
Friday Harbor Grand operates as a 5-star bed and breakfast in a restored early 20th-century Bowman House, featuring spacious suites with kitchenettes, Keurig coffee makers, refrigerators, microwaves, and flat-screen TVs. Most suites offer private decks or porches with views of Friday Harbor, Mount Baker, or Orcas Island, while ground-floor units include private garden entrances. Gourmet breakfasts prepared by innkeeper Farhad Ghatan utilize ingredients from the property's organic vegetable garden, flock of hens, and fruit trees. The inn provides free Wi-Fi, concierge services, barbecue grills, a picnic area, and complimentary bicycle use. Friday Harbor Grand is situated within walking distance of the ferry terminal, San Juan Islands Museum of Art, and local restaurants like Coho Restaurant and Mike's Cafe and Wine Bar.
