We recommend that you plan ahead; if you’re staying overnight you will want to make reservations at one of La Conner’s lodging establishments. You’ll be centrally located and within a few minutes of all of the fun – you’ll also find it easy to shop in La Conner’s many specialty stores and dine at one of their amazing restaurants.
