A short two and a half minute trail walk with two sets of stairs (see photos) brings you to this little gazebo nestled high at the water’s edge. Secluded in nature, it provides a quiet escape with sweeping views of Mt. Baker, Portage Island and Bellingham Bay. It's the perfect backdrop for deep breathing, quiet reflection, and slowing down. Welcome to Lummi Island. Lummi Island is one of many islands that make up the San Juans. Home of a little under 1000 permanent residents, it is one of the easiest assessable islands as it has a regular ferry that runs daily, on the hour every hour from roughly 6am-midnight. On the Island there is a restaurant, a convenience store, farmers markets in the summer months, farm stands, artist tours and a delicious coffee cart most Thursday-Sundays. There are multiple public beaches, and this particular spot is part of the "Scenic Estates" which offers additional amenities including a swimming lake, playground, marina and boat launch all assessable within a 3 minute drive. The gazebo is a truly unique camping experience. There is a potty tent with a portable toilet. Please pack in and out all things. There is an option to rent a propane tank with a fire pit for an additional charge, but we ask no recreational fires as there is no water access at the gazebo. This property does have neighbors, but is pretty private. Please be respectful of them as well as Mother Nature. The outdoors await!There are multiple places to pitch your tent on the deck, or hang a hammock from some nearby trees. It is vegetated and uneven so you might struggle to find a place in the dirt. The gazebo does add great protection from the wind and rain so even on a typical rainy day in the PNW, it's easy to be outdoors. There are neighbors that also own property parallel to the gazebo, although there are no other structures surrounding it, you still need to be respectful of their space. Boundaries are indicated by the blue rocks and marked blue trees. There is a public beach at the marina less than a mile up the road, as well as a boat launch. Farther up the road is a swimming lake, playground, and cabana with seasonal showers and bathroom on a first come first serve basis. Alternatively there is another public restroom at the ferry landing with soap and warm running water. There are multiple hikes around the Island. The Baker Preserve trail is closet, it is a 1.6 mile out-and-back trail with 1,060-foot elevation gain with breathtaking views of Rosario Straight and the San Juan Islands. This trail does not allow dogs and starts pretty steep, but don't be discouraged, it gets easier. The Aiston Preserve is 225 acres of woods that take you down through the old rock quarry and Smuggler's Cove. The Otto Preserve is wooded and fairly flat, and the Curry Preserve has a more open field feel. Both are roughly 1-2 miles depending on how much you want to walk. Otto, Curry and Aiston Preservers are dog friendly, but they must be kept on a leash at all times and don't forget to clean up after them. There are multiple public beaches around the island, one by the ferry landing, one at the marina, and one at the church. For more information check out Lummi-island.com.
