We are two seniors never been to Washington State.  Flying into Seattle, will rent a car.  Want to see Whidbey Island and at least two others: Orcas, San Juan or Lopez Island.   Like B&B accommodations.  How many days would be comfortable each place without feeling rushed?  Please recommend an itinerary.  Thanks for assistance.

Sorry for the delay... it has been a busy week. I'm thinking two nights on San Juan Island and three nights on Orcas Island. I'm not familiar with Whidbey Island however I imagine two nights would be enough to see the highlights. Check with your innkeepers to see how busy they are during your time.... if your here during the shoulder seasons there is a good chance that reservations would not be necessary and you could easily add or subtract days at destinations depending on how you like it. Your innkeepers will definitely be able to provide you with the best exact itineraries as they will be informed about current events, latest restaurant reviews, park hours, and gallery exhibits. Here are some helpful links to explore:

Places of interest on Orcas Island:
Moran State Park
Turtleback mountain
Mount Constitution
Olga Village
Eastsound Village
Doe Bay
Historical Museum
History of Robert Moran and Rosario Resort

Places of interest on San Juan Island :
San Juan Island's West Side
Mount Finlayson
Roche Harbor mausoleum
Lime Kiln State Park
San Juan County Park
Roche Harbor Resort
Downtown Friday Harbor
