Saturn's Return is a regenerative organic farm, boutique inn and bed & breakfast, and weddings and events venue with campus of 42 acres of pasture, forest, and walking trails to explore, rest, and gather in abundance. The rush of the mainland melts away here. Space to return back into yourself. Saturn’s Return is nestled in San Juan Island’s West Valley at the head of the Garrison Bay watershed, where forest, wetland, and pasture converge. Our stream is home to the island’s only native population of trout, just 10 feet from the Inn. Bald eagles, great horned owls, red foxes, fawns, and adorable little green frogs. These 42 acres are buzzing with life and all yours to explore. Walk the meandering trails through forest and meadow. Gather eggs or join us for our morning harvest. Lend a hand in the flower garden or help us plant new fruit trees. Browse our food, agriculture, and philosophy library. Read by the babbling stream. Join a seasonal workshop (like spring foraging or autumn preservation). Catch a community dinner or guest chef residency. 42 acres: Flower, vegetable, and herb gardens. Young orchard and acres of pasture. Wetland, creek, and pond. 2 miles of walking trails through 22 acres of forest and meadow. Campus: Inn with bedrooms, living room, dining room, and sunroom.

We believe in intertwining purpose and pleasure and source organically, regeneratively grown ingredients that burst with flavor: Eggs and vegetables (and flowers) from our land. Produce, mushrooms, meats, and cheeses from our farmer friends. Remarkable local yoghurt and granolas. Citrus, avocados, and olive oil from our favorite California farms. Sourdough breads and bagels from island-grown grains. Locally roasted coffee and herbal teas. Residencies: Beyond staying for a few nights, we also welcome month-long residencies. For those who want to really let the natural arts and patience of this place sink into their bones. At a reduced nightly rate. Whether your aim is to finish a writing project, get your hands dirty on the farm, or work from a new setting with our fast fiber internet and co-working office, there’s space for it here. Plus, you'll get to participate in four weekly cycles of farm festivities — community dinners, workshops, and other events.
