Northwest bed-and-breakfasts

We asked readers to tell us about their favorite B-and-Bs:

• "Heceta Head Lighthouse Bed and Breakfast [92072 Hwy. 101 S., Yachats, Ore., 866-547-3696, www.hecetalighthouse.com]. The seven-course breakfast featuring Northwest foods is only rivaled by the views of the lighthouse and Oregon's coast."

— Connie Allen, Carson City, Nev.

• "My sister, daughter and I went to Friday Harbor for our annual 'girls weekend' and kayak trip. After finding and reading about Harrison House Suites Bed and Breakfast [235 C St., 800-407-7933, www.harrisonhousesuites.com], I decided that was the place for us. We stayed in the Orcas Suite, and it was very nice. The breakfasts, which you could have served in your room, were so special and delicious."

— Shelly Christensen, Enumclaw

• "The Anchorage Inn on Orcas Island [249 Bronson Way, Eastsound area, 360-376-8282, www.anchorageonorcas.com] is a charming and private bed & breakfast. The friendly owners provide suites with cozy, comfortable beds. The rooms have kitchenettes, fireplaces and spectacular views of Eastsound. It is a very romantic location with a private beach. Not only do they offer a great home-cooked breakfast in your suite, each guest arrives to find port waiting in their room."
