Roslyn, Washington: Northern Exposure TV Town

Location for exteriors in the 1990s TV series "Northern Exposure," a more convenient substitute for the fictional Alaska setting. Some remnants of the feel-good quirkiness linger....

I have loved Northern Exposure from the very start. I made it at last! I stayed at the Huckleberry house (B&B). It's right at the top of the hill looking into town, the main shot for so many shows! Very easy to walk around town, and see all the TV sites, The Brick (good food,long wait), the KBHR radio station, Ruth Ann's store, and Roslyn Cafe, and Fleischman's office. The owner of the gift shop, Dr. Joel's office, was a cast member of the show. Ask him about that, he has many great stories to tell!

If you're a fan of the show, it's a must see. I wasn't expecting it to feel so much like the series, but it felt like I drove into an ongoing episode. Nothing has changed -- the radio station on Main Street, the cafe, The Brick, which has great food. Joel's office is a gift shop. I got lost in nostalgia for a couple hours. Friendly folks.
