On my way into Head Bay yesterday I spotted a massive lodge,
extensive docks, and a half dozen (or more) yurts on shore. Curious, I stopped
by this morning and found the almost-new Moutcha Bay Resort.

A dockhand helped me tie up and I started asking questions
about the facility. Yes, it’s public, they have fuel, water, power, etc. The
girl at the dock sent me up to talk with the manager so I could get information
about this new facility for the Waggoner.
The manager filled in some more details, and I got
acquainted with the facility. It’s really stunning; first class in every way.
The docks are new and beautiful; the lodge is huge, perfectly clean, and
tastefully decorated.
After talking with the manager I met the owner, a very
wealthy Seattle apartment developer. He’s obviously sunk a ton of money into
this place, and seems to enjoy it. Many of the visitors trailer their boats in
and either stay at the lodge, in a yurt, or at one of the campsites. I was the
only one staying on my boat, but they have plenty of room for cruisers and all
the amenities one could want.

Without a doubt, this is the most luxurious facility I’ve
come across on the west coast. It’s also the most expensive, but a little
luxury is nice after weeks of wilderness.
