A Cozy Escape Just North Of Seattle

It can be easy to get caught up in the relentless rhythm of your daily life.  Finding a quiet moment alone together can sometimes take a back seat to a busy schedule. And, while the Pacific Northwest is full of beautiful weekend spots, crossing the border might be exactly what you need to truly unplug and reset.

Just a short drive from you — in the quiet village of Yarrow, British Columbia — we built the Hazelnut Inn as a peaceful, adults-only sanctuary where couples like you can slow down, take a deep breath, and focus entirely on one another.

No Flights, No Ferries, Just A Quick Drive

And, as a bonus, getting here is pretty painless. A straightforward drive north on Interstate 5 swaps the crowded city highways for open, mountain-framed views of the Fraser Valley in just about two and a half hours. You completely skip the hassle of airport security lines and ferry timetables, making it an easy choice for a spontaneous weekend away or a quiet anniversary celebration.

Trading your familiar city streets for a scenic cross-border road trip gives you a total change of scenery without the exhaustion of a long travel day.

Handcrafted Details & Storybook Charm

We poured our hearts into handcrafting every corner of our magical little hotel, shaping the timbers, bricks, and custom sculptures to feel like a storybook come to life. The moment you close your private garden gates, the outside world just fades away, replaced by the gentle sound of courtyard waterfalls.

Inside your suite, you’ll find a blend of old-world charm and modern comfort, complete with deep soaking tubs built for two. You’ll love the small, playful touches we’ve added to make your stay memorable, like board games, yummy treats, and private ponds where you can spend a quiet afternoon feeding the fish.

Choose Your Own Fairy-Tale Sanctuary

Every couple relaxes differently, so we designed three distinct spaces to match your ideal getaway style.

If you love the romance of the sea, you can unwind under the star-mapped ceilings of our North Star Suite.

If you prefer the idea of a cozy, hidden hideaway, you can curl up next to a glowing hearth in our rustic Under Hill Suite.

And, for those of you who want to feel a bit like royalty, the soaring stonework of our Copper Crown Suite offers a majestic space to relax.

Whichever you choose, each suite is a completely private world built just for two.

We’re Ready When You Are

Escaping your daily routine is simple when your destination is built around rest and creativity. Whether you are celebrating a special milestone or simply need a few days to reconnect, we would love to welcome you across the border for your next getaway.

Whenever you are ready to pack your bags, you can find our current availability right here on our website.
