The history is so rich at this place with the description boards that sprinkle throughout the site. I wish that they had a tour guide available if you had any questions or concerns during the visit because I was curious about the dark rooms used previously as oil rooms, but I was scared to go by myself in them ;-; so many ladders and stairs that you could take to change levels as you please to see what else the site has to offer. Even a little hiking trails around off to the side if you just want a mini getaway. It was a good time even though I was by myself. Some benches by the hiking trails if you want a rest stop.

We saw a bald eagle hunt something in the water and bring it to the beach, so it seems good for wildlife watching. The lighthouse is kind of underwhelming because of the size. There's multiple grassy fields and some picnic tables. Some people were flying kites when we were there because of the wind. There's also a dog bag station, which is nice to see at a state park. Regarding the fort, I didn't realize until later that there's an easy path up to the top without needing stairs and/or a steep route. Otherwise, I thought it was tricky going up if I could only use the thin metal ladders. Once at the top, there were multiple points that seemed iffy and unprotected from dropping down.

There are also trails along cliffs lined with meadows and forests, offering beautiful views of the water. There are public restrooms near the parking lot.

Little did we know, we would soon stumble across the most perfect hidden gem for our intimate event, Jenne Farm. The glory of this 150 acre property was celebrated by us in many ways. We held our rehearsal dinner in the historic farm house built in 1908, took photos in awe inspiring pastures, and shared our vows on a cold winter day in the most charming granary greeted by the most delightful farm animals. The best part of our weeklong stay there was our host, Fran. Talk about the most humble and hospitable person we had ever come across. He made us feel so comfortable and truly helped lay the foundation for one of the most memorable days of our lives. Jenne Farm will always hold the most special place in our hearts, and we are forever grateful for that! -Saba & Kaj

This ended up more of a pleasant boat ride than whale watching as we didn't get to see any orcas (such a bummer!) and only got to see one single, elusive Humpback whale name Victory. I can't fault the tour for that, but it definitely impacts the experience. It was still a nice boat ride, with friendly staff onboard and the fortunate luck of sitting at the back of the boat next to a conservationist-led tour group with a lot of knowledge shared. On the brighter side, the weather was beautiful and we got to see two kinds of puffin and some sea lions as well. Just wish we got to see whales, instead of just one.
