Another worthwhile idea for those not quite so motivated is the hike up to the lake
Too many unknown variables to answer this question - route (most direct is steepest - the elevation is 2,409 ft), physical ability, etc., but yes, probably 2-3 hours up. Patrice: Rosario Resort is located at the foot of Mount Constitution on Orcas Island. It is a 15-20 minute drive to the top.
It involves a ferry ride the nto Deer Pass from Friday Harbor (location of the Rosario) and then hiked across Orcas Island . friends of mine did Mt Constitution and said it alone was quite a vertical height
It woyld be a few hours your best bet would be to drive over to the lake and hike up to the top from there you can also drive up to the top if you want to
