Back: Phil, Carter and Thatcher
Front: Barbara, Monica, Joanna and Carol.
Scout is front and center, as always.

Barbara Bailey (co-owner) sold the landmark Bailey-Coy Books in Seattle in January of 2003 after a 30-year career as an independent bookseller to live full time in Port Townsend. When she's not playing golf, she can almost always be found maintaining the beautiful gardens, riding the John Deere or knee deep in a major renovation project.

Thatcher Bailey (co-owner) is the director of Centrum, a center for arts and education at Fort Worden State Park. He urges you to read your copy of Experience Magazine and ask him about upcoming performances and workshops.

Phil Kovacevich (co-owner) is a graphic designer with a thriving practice in Seattle. Phil used to live at Chevy Chase. Phil is a delightful host and superb cook. We look forward to his visits.

Joanna Moogk will most likely answer the phone when you call, respond to your emails, and greet you when you arrive to the property. She takes care of the reservations, marketing, website updates, bills and the countless other things that come up around here. She has a background in event planning and culinary arts.

Carter Camp is our onsite garden guru, handy-man, lawn mower, leaf raker and problem solver. He is in charge of the spectacular vegetable and cutting flower gardens and works side-by-side with Barbara keeping the grounds beautiful. Before making the move to Port Townsend, Carter was a brewer of fine beers in Seattle.

Carol Buendia is the newest member of the Chevy Chase family, and we don't know how we ever survived without her. She keeps the cabins sparkling clean, tackles the massive piles of laundry and does it all with a smile on her face. We love Carol.

Monica Gerstel is vice president in charge of weed wacking. She always lends a hand when we need help with the never-ending list of projects, massive cabin turnovers, and of course - weed wacking. Monica's sunny personality keeps us all smiling.

Chevy Chase Beach Cabins is proudly gay-owned (and straight operated). Everyone is welcome here. We expect that our guests are open-minded and tolerant of others.
