Looking for a peaceful and private getaway? We have two ideal waterfront accommodations here on Shaw Island. Our charming 1900's vintage cottage, which sleeps 4-6, is newly refurbished and provides a cozy and inviting atmosphere with stunning views of Harney Channel from the glassed-in "wheelhouse." Our other property, "Captain's Quarters," is perched high above the water and affords superb views of Orcas Island, Harney Channel and the ferry landing.

The Silver Bay Cafe in the back of the store is a great place to enjoy a latte or Americano made from coffee beans roasted on site. We also offer several varieties of delicious deli sandwiches and made-to-order wraps. Feeling a bit chilly? A piping hot bowl of soup or chowder will warm you up in no time!

Welcome to the Shaw General Store online!

We have a new deli and bakery this year: The Silver Bay Cafe!

A walk through the door of the Shaw General Store is like a walk back in time. If ever a store had character, this is the one. Started in 1898, the store is one of the oldest businesses in the San Juan Islands and indeed in Washington State. Situated right on the water, it offers breathtaking views.

The staff at Shaw General Store

Original island fir floors, antiques, and island memorabilia welcome you as you dream of the good old days. Sit and drink an espresso or enjoy a fresh deli sandwich and ice cream cone in the former post office in back as you watch the ferry go by.

The Shaw General Store carries everything from nails to gourmet groceries and specializes in local and organic products. We encourage local producers - locally made groceries, produce, wine, clothing and gifts are featured here.

Located right at the Shaw Island ferry landing, with a small marina, it has been called the best store for boaters in the San Juan Islands. Easy access and friendly, personal service await your boating or ferry visit to the Shaw General Store.
