Things to do
Top hotels in Happy Valley
Swinomish Casino & Lodge
Attractive and clean, room and bathroom were great. Great value. They are currently remodeling some restaurant kitchens which limited the menu and service when we stopped in for breakfast. Casino was bright and pleasant but we were more into the lodging side of things.
