Stop in for a cup of coffee

50 miles of gravel road driving will get you alongside some remote, quiet lakes. Or book with a guide and going up river into some nice territory makes a good day adventure. Eagle Nest lodge is another good spot.
Mostly for me, join up with my buddy and a 5 minute boat ride to our fishing spot, good enough. Now that tourist season is done, river is not busy at all.

I know what you mean by tourist season as we have to drive across Deception Pass Bridge onto the island anytime we go to mainland (like yesterday turning in my work truck for front end work). Anyway it's usually pretty chaotic getting thru there in the summertime, quieter now
