DRIVING DIRECTIONS TO CHEVY CHASE BEACH CABINS

The Seattle/Bainbridge and Edmonds/Kingston ferries leave about every 45-60 minutes. The Keystone/Port Townsend ferry leaves about every 90 minutes and is occasionally subject to tide closures [Note! This is currently a passenger only ferry]. You do not need reservations, but do be prepared to wait during peak travel times (3pm-7pm on Friday is the busiest). Visit http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/ferries/schedules/current for a current schedule.

Via the Downtown Seattle/Bainbridge Island Ferry:
Take the Bainbridge Island ferry from the downtown Seattle waterfront on Pier 52 (801 Alaskan Way). Follow Hwy 305 straight through Winslow and Poulsbo. Merge on to Hwy 3 North towards the Hood Canal Bridge. Cross the Hood Canal Bridge and follow the directions below*.

Via the Edmonds/Kingston Ferry:
From I-5, follow signs for the Edmonds/Kingston Ferry, exit 177. Follow Hwy 104 to the ferry terminal, and once off the ferry continue on Hwy 104 through Kingston and Port Gamble and follow the signs to Hood Canal Bridge. Cross the Hood Canal Bridge and follow the directions below*.

From Sea-Tac Airport and Tacoma:
You have a number of options when traveling from the airport and the Tacoma area to the Olympic Peninsula, and traffic is a major variable. You can either travel North on I-5 towards Seattle and follow the directions for the Downtown/Bainbridge Ferry or the Edmonds/Kingston Ferry. The other option is to head through Tacoma and travel across the Kitsap Peninsula. The Tacoma route could be fastest if you would be battling peak ferry hours (3pm to 7pm) and commuter traffic, but the ferries could prove faster if the Tacoma Narrows Bridge is backed up. Either way, you should be able to get to Port Townsend in about 2.5 hours if traffic and ferries cooperate. Driving Around: Take I-5 South towards Portland. Merge on to Hwy 16 West via exit 132 (towards Gig Harbor/Bermerton/Sprague Ave.) and cross the Tacoma Narrows Bridge. Hwy 16 West becomes Hwy 3 North. Turn left on Hwy 104 West and cross the Hood Canal Bridge. Follow the directions below*.

*From the Hood Canal Bridge:
About 5 miles after crossing the Hood Canal Bridge you will see a sign for Chimacum/Port Townsend, Hwy 19. Take that right. Follow that road 10 miles and pass straight through Chimacum (not much to see-a cafe, school, etc) and Port Hadlock. When you are just out of Port Hadlock you will see a Napa Auto Parts store and Carpet One on the right. Take the left immediately after Carpet One (Four Corners Road), and follow that road for a mile. If you reach the airport you have missed the Four Corners Road turn. Continue straight at the stop sign where you will see Four Corners Grocery and Gas (beer, bait, etc) and the intersection of Hwy 20. At this point, the road turns in to South Discovery Road. Follow the road for about another mile and you will see a large white Victorian home on your left--3710 South Discovery Road. If you reach the golf course you've gone too far. The office is located on the side of the house with the large, mossy elm trees.

From the WA Coast, Victoria BC, Port Angeles and Sequim:
Follow US-101 East to Hwy 20. Take a left on Hwy 20 and continue straight for about 6 miles. Follow directions below.**

From Olympia and Portland, OR:
From I-5 North, merge onto US-101 North via exit 104 (towards Aberdeen/Port Angeles). Turn right on Hwy 20 and continue straight for about 6 miles. **Take a left at South Discovery Road (you will see the Four Corners Grocery and gas station on your right). Follow the road for about a mile and you will see a large white Victorian home on your left--3710 South Discovery Road. If you reach the golf course you've gone too far. The office is located on the side of the house with the large, mossy elm trees.

From British Columbia, Bellingham and Whidbey Island:
NOTE!! As of February 9, 2008 there is just one car ferry running on this route - it is subject to tide and weather cancellations and will run every 90 minutes (even in the summer). At peak travel time expect long lines and possible cancellations/delays. If you are not already on Whidbey Island: from 1-5 South take exit 230 toward Hwy 20 (Anacortes/San Juan Ferry). Continue on Hwy 20 across Deception Pass and across Whidbey Island. Follow signage to the Keystone ferry at the South end of Whidbey Island. Follow directions from Downtown Port Townsend***.

***From Downtown Port Townsend:
If you are arriving on the Keystone Ferry, take a left from the ferry dock (downtown Port Townsend is to the right), and follow the main road (Hwy 20/Sims Way) out of town for approximately 2 miles until you reach a stoplight at Mill Road/Discovery Road. Take a right at the light (you will be at the "Welcome to Port Townsend" sign) and an immediate left on to Discovery Road. Follow Discovery Road for about 3.5 miles. Turn in to the driveway of the large white Victorian home on your right, just past the Discovery Bay Golf Course--3710 South Discovery Road. The office is located on the side of the house with the large, mossy elm trees.
