Colette's Garden

a stone path through a tunnel of small treesOur destination on the Olympic Peninsula was Colette's Bed and Breakfast. We found this charming retreat online and were not disappointed. In fact, it is not often one can say this, but it was even better than expected. Every detail was seen to for our comfort and enjoyment. The gourmet breakfast sustained us until dinner and the afternoon wine and cheese was delightful. But my favorite moments were the ones spent leisurely wandering the gardens with wine glass in one hand and my sweetheart's hand in my other. Come along and let Colette's Garden rest your mind and delight your senses.

  2. Wow, this is gorgeous. I like that view of the vertical photo at the top. I can easily see strolling through on a leisurely afternoon with wine glass in hand. What a beautiful garden and home for a B&B.

  10. Colette's is definitely on my next trip to the Olympic Peninsula. It not only is a fabulous place to stay but close to everything, yet very private. I highly recommend this B&B!

  15. Ola, estava sem computador.
    Sl. 112 Louvai, ó servos do Senhor. Louvai o nome do Senhor. Bendito seja o nome do Senhor, agora e pelos séculos eternos, desde o nascer ao por do sol, seja louvado o nome do Senhor.Na magia da natureza Deus se manifesta.
    Lindas fotos, enebriantes contempla-las. Felicidades.
