Rosario Resort and Spa, Orcas Island

Over a hundred years ago Seattle shipbuilder Robert Moran built Rosario. Now it is a resort and spa.

The Moran Mansion is open to the public and contains a museum. One can also have a very nice meal in the restaurant.













The grounds are beautiful and youare free to wander around. There was some construction going on when I was recently there.









There is an outdoor pool and this one in the basement.

You can find out more about the resort at

This photo was taken from the top of Mount Constitution on Orcas Island, Washington State. Mt. Baker is in the distance with the historic town of Fairhaven on the shore. A bit of Bellingham can be seen to the left. Lummi Island is in the foreground.
