back place to get your North Sound resort experience, catering largely to boaters who want
a reasonably priced night off their vessel. It's nothing fancy, but nice touches include the
free breakfast, free wi-fi and private balconies. A free water shuttle ferries guests here from
Gun Creek or Bitter End (call Saba to arrange a pickup).
