Meet the Business Owner

Dave P.

Business Owner

«I came from San Luis Obispo, California to Orcas Island on a lark in the Summer 1985. Summer turned to Fall and before I knew it I was too broke to leave. Now I can’t imagine living anywhere else. Some of the gigs I’ve had: bartender, waiter, realtor, property manager, turf mowing contractor, log house builder. But the thing I do best is host. I’m a people person; my greatest reward is a satisfied guest. The Lodge is my baby and I give it all I’ve got. I see to it that everything works and is in good repair, and that the linens are always clean and crisp, and all rooms spic and span. I’ve had the Lodge since 2000 and it is a work in progress. My passion is to keep making it better. Come and enjoy the fruits of my labor!»
