Stanwood Real Estate and Camano Island Real Estate communities offer the best of North West living.

The unique appeal of Camano Island is that it offers visitors a real-life island experience -- without the hype. Don't expect trendy tourist traps. There are a few restaurants, a handful of country-style grocery stores, bed and breakfast facilities, and intriguing fine art galleries to serve the elite few who have discovered Camano Island.

It is not surprising that Camano's population swells by several thousand in the summer when one considers the protected location offered by Saratoga Passage to the west, Skagit Bay to the north, and Port Susan to the east. There are about seven thousand permanent residents living on Camano Island Real Estate with the Island County seat located in Coupeville on Whidbey Island. Schools are located in the nearby town of Stanwood in Snohomish County, and two are currently under construction on Camano itself.

Camano Island has a colorful history, first with the Native Americans who fished, clammed, and picked berries on the hillsides. The island takes its name from an early Spanish explorer, and in the 1700s Europeans mapped and named many places in the area. The Douglas firs became very desirable for shipbuilding, and by the 1800`s Camano Island was a bustling community with mills, homes, and schools, and with tall ships taking cargo from the deep waters at the north end of the island.

Seattle and Vancouver, B.C. are a pleasant ferry ride away or there is quick access to Interstate 5 North and South. Whale watching, Eagle watching or just enjoying the natural views make this area a real treasure for those considering a move.
