Romantic Getaways Friday Harbor, Washington

We love taking care of special requests for guests. Last week, we received this email. We are so honored to help them celebrate their honeymoon.

"Greetings, We both lost our spouses 10 days apart in 2007. We were both married for almost 50 years. We met Christmas Eve 2007 at church and we had our first date Fall of 2008. Things heated up by the first of the year and I asked her to marry me in late January. We will be staying at your B&B the second night of our honeymoon. I have been in the habit of bringing her one rose when I judge the last one is through blooming. I would be very happy to pay you for placing one red rose with a card expressing my love in our room prior to our arrival."

We had the pleasure of assisting one of our guests with a proposal. He asked us to decorate the room upon their return. After we received the text message saying 'success', Shaylynn quickly went to work preparing their room. Here is what they returned to:

We have certainly been busy this summer - putting the finishing touches on our projects as the season is approaching. We painted Evening Star's bath a lovely warm strawberry color.

Four Winds got a new comforter and some fun new pillows!

This is the living room in Four Winds. While we were taking pictures we gave this one a try. While the sunshine is fabulous it plays havoc with the exposure.

Log Cabin - one of our big winter projects. We painted and put in a new floor. The steps lead to a private fenced deck that is shaded by a giant redwood tree.

The kitchen in log got a new granite countertop. We took down the old wallpaper and gave the walls a soft faux finish.

Dove in the Window got new bedding.

And Castle Wall's bathroom got a fresh coat of new paint. A historic Jamestown blue.

Here is the living room in Victoria's Flower Garden. There is a wood burning stove and the couch is a sleeper sofa. The Suite can sleep up to 6.

This is the new gas fireplace just installed in the Goose in the Pond Cottage.

Dear Anna Maria and David,

Just a quick note in response to your email. Our stay in the log cabin at The Tucker House Bed and Breakfast was amazing. I have given your name and number to several friends and family members already.

We loved and appreciated everything. I believe I experienced withdrawal symptoms my first few days away from The Tucker House Inn, going without your marvelous breakfast and afternoon cookies was a challenge.

Thank you for everything.

Jennie's Cottage has been another one of our winter projects. We just finished a major renovation with new floors, bed and color scheme. It is a stand alone cottage right off the main deck.

It is a cozy studio with a queen bed, mini kitchen and private bath with a tub. There is also a large walk in closet. It is perfect for a couple or a a single traveler.

The kitchen has a 2 burner stove top, microwave and small refrigerator. There is also a guest barbecue on the main deck outside the cottage's front door. The table and chair inside the suite can be used for enjoying a meal or playing a round of cards. Many guests use the main deck as an extension of the cottage's living area.

The bathroom in the same earthtone color scheme has a vanity with single bowl sink and tub/shower combination.
