Weekend Escape to La Conner, Washington

By Emily Molina

Plan a getaway to La Conner, WA, a charming little town that is nothing short of enchanting. Situated along the scenic Swinomish Channel, La Conner boasts a treasure trove of attractions, from vibrant galleries and unique boutique shops to inviting eateries, and breathtaking waterfront views. Strolling through its main streets feels like stepping into a living postcard.

Stay

Book a stay at the quaint La Conner Inn, just a short walk from downtown. Relax in inviting rooms with gas fireplaces and plush bedding. Each morning, savor a delightful Continental breakfast served amid the beautiful stone hearth in the Inn’s welcoming library.  

Let PNW Exploration, the on-site hub for e-bike rentals, tours, retreats, and more, help you plan exciting activities to enhance your visit.   

Shop, Play, Discover

With so many unique shops and galleries to explore, La Conner is a destination where art, culture, and local craftsmanship come to life at every turn.

Stop by Caravan Gallery for an immense collection of globally curated art, jewelry, handcrafted goods and textiles. A tranquil outdoor garden and waterfall awaits for perfect photo ops. 

Find treasures of all shapes and sizes at Vintage La Conner Nonprofit Thrift Shop. Proceeds go toward initiatives that enhance the lives of women and girls, providing them with the tools and opportunities for greater social and economic empowerment.

Visit the Museum of Northwest Art to explore contemporary art exhibits showcasing the diverse talent of the Northwest, extending from Alaska, British Columbia, California, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington. 

Dine

Raven’s Cup Coffee and Art Gallery is a true gem for coffee lovers and art enthusiasts alike. Indulge in gourmet coffees, teas, and sweet treats. While you sip, browse the space for stunning works by regional artists and beyond, all available for purchase. You’ll also discover one-of-the-kind souvenirs and gifts to take home. 

Head to Calico Cupboard Café and Bakery for all-day breakfast, hearty lunch options, and freshly baked goods made from scratch. The soup and sandwich combo really hits the spot. 

Try the Firehall Kitchen and Taphouse for an elevated take on comfort food, paired with craft brews and creative cocktails. Savor your meal in a welcoming, family- and dog-friendly atmosphere, with both indoor and outdoor seating options ideal for any occasion. 

For a more peaceful experience, consider visiting off-peak, outside of the bustling tulip season to enjoy the charm without the crowds.
