Two important birthday cards (with…read morenothing but cardboard, paper, and a sticker in them) were mailed from here and took weeks to arrive, getting there after the occasion. We came early, gave no special instructions, and offered to answer any questions or use any service needed. Told both were fine and would arrive early. One card was even returned to us for unclear reasons and we then had to pay a $30 express fee to try and get it there within the time remaining. Leaving two stars out of consideration that it was a unique mistake, but won't be using them again.

He said begrudgenly, "fine but it will be awhile because i have to fill the mail boxes first". I waited for 10 or so minutes and then realized he had driven away without informing me he had left and without delivering said package. I called Canada Post to inquire and was told rudely that the mail carrier is not obligated to go more than 7 steps. What kind of policy is this!? Canada Post that is the most ridiculous policy I have ever heard. You are to deliver mail. That is your one and only job. Not impressed with this customer service.

This is the worst Canada Post office I have been to.

A few years ago I was asked to leave after waiting in line for 15 minutes because it was then 5pm and they were closing (even though I had showed up well before 5). The stock on their shelfs is dated and the displays are unprofessional. The overall appearance of the store is poor. This is not a good representation in CP. some of the employees are nice and friendly to deal with, but most are very unprofessiona

There's something very special about a post office in a faraway place. It's a link to someone else;…read morean unseen string that connects you to them with nothing more than a few strokes of the pen, and a stamp. It also seems like a connection to a different time; a bygone era when we chose paper over pixels, cute cards over keyboards, and real connection over virtual reality. Perhaps today, as our society currently sits in isolation, a post office feels a little less distant in the past. Yes, a post office is a place where you send and pick up greetings from afar, and for a just a moment, that stamp connects your minds and hearts. Maybe you send a postcard from a trip. Maybe it's a letter from an overseas assignment. Or maybe it's a birthday card, painted with beautiful daffodils, or daisies, or dahlias; just to tell someone that you're thinking of them, you're glad they're doing well, and to wish them the very happiest of everythings. Yes, this post office has all of that charm. Located on "20 Jack and Jill Place," you couldn't ask for a more picturesque place. Perched on the incline headed out of Deer Harbor on Orcas Island, it houses just a few PO Boxes for this tiny community. There are three post offices on the island, actually, and it says something about my affinity for snail mail that I've been into two of them, and been by the third. I actually use the one right up the road from the ferry most often, as I sometimes send cards to friends on my way off the island. Especially today, I'm thinking about this post office and that connection it makes between two people.

After a slow and winding drive through the hills and valleys, I ended up at the post office. This office sits up on a hill overlooking the street below. It is across the street from which appeared to be a market or maybe a tavern. There really isn't any parking here and the hill is quite steep. The post office itself is really cute and well maintained and the workers are really friendly. They kind if give off a small town feel but it's to be expected from the people that live on the island. Really friendly.

Of course there is no one to complain to and the USPS has zero interest in service their customers. This has happened many times, and it's unacceptable.

It's got like an old 1950/60's décor feel. It's a beautiful large structure that basically takes up most of the corner block. It kind of reminds me of a New York style police station, which might be a bad or good comparison however you may look at it. There are quite a few steps to get inside and I don't remember a wheel chair ramp being available. Don't quote me on this because it's a post office so there is probably handicapped accessibility on the other side of the building. A wonderfully built building. The people inside are just a nice. Probably the nicest I've seen in a post office but I don't hate on post offices. They provide such a service especially since so many people don't really use paper mail anymore if they don't have to due to technology. Oh! There is parking galore as well.

Well, there are still thousands of adorable little buildings that dot the landscape and remind us of a simpler time when the mail was such a form of entertainment and interest. And one of them is right here on Orcas Island. Have a card to send? A postcard to make people jealous? This is your stop. I wanted to send some cards from the island and so I popped them in the box here before boarding the ferry. You can walk while you're waiting for the ferry to dock; it's just outside the normal Orcas Village development. This building was also the first one I saw when I arrived. It was dark, and as I exited the dock my headlights registered Post Office. It seems a lovely sentinel to a simpler way of life and a slower time--the things that island life represent. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to go into the building, but I they drive up box is convenient. They have a few parking places there as well, if you're driving in. Cute, and perfect.
