The Island of Windward, Washington: Where was The Baker's Son filmed?

The lovely town by the sea of Windward in Washington State, established in 1830, is actually an amalgam of several locations filmed in Vancouver Island (British Columbia).

The establishing shot pictured is from Portside Marina and the ferry terminal area in Brentwood Bay. Here in the blue and green cabin is also located Mayor's Walter Rasmussen office and the pier where Nicole arrives.

Situated on the Saanich Peninsula, Brentwood Bay is a tourist destination, home to various cool wineries and restaurants.

Annie's local diner, McBride’s, is the Willow Street Cafe located in the heart of Chemainus.

Several scenes were filmed on the colorful Willow Street, including the Pioneer Day festival, which required many extras. The filmmakers took over the block for five days.

Chemainus is a 3,000 souls community on the east coast of southern Vancouver Island, now famous for hosting up to 53 outdoor murals.

Located just across the street from McBride’s, the front of Owl's Nest Bakery and Bistro doubled as the legendary Duval Boulangerie.

However, according to Victoria News, the interior scenes from the bakery were recorded at True Grain Bread in Cowichan Bay.

This is an Old World-inspired European bakery -a French thing- opened in 2004 by Jonathan Knight. The success of True Grain Bread inspired many more small sustainable businesses to open in the bay.

The magnificent waterfront house where the company of ballet is staying, called Little-Oaks, is a historic mansion located at 3165 Tarn Place in Oak Bay, the municipality bordered to the east by the city of Victoria.

Built in 1929, the house is a fine example of British Arts and Crafts architecture with Tudor style.

Several locations where the Netflix series Maid was filmed are also situated in Oak Bay.

The local hang-out bar, Bartholomew's Public House, is a real pub located at 777 Douglas Street in the city of Victoria.

Oliver Rice (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Altered Carbon) plays the director of the ballet company, Philip Chandler.

The final scene at Windward's harbor was filmed at the picturesque Cowichan Bay located near the city of Duncan. The house on the dock is the Fishermen's Wharf Assn.

This gorgeous bay is known for its fishing industry and the scenic value of the area.

Eloise Mumford played Dakota Johnson’s best friend in all three Fifty Shades of Grey installments.

She also has starred in the 2019 movie with Billy Crystal Standing Up, Falling Down, and has appeared in the Fox series Lone Star and NBC's Chicago Fire.

Brant Daugherty was also featured in the last Fifty Shades of Grey film, but he is better known for his role as Noel Kahn on the ABC show Pretty Little Liars and Netflix's Dear White People.

Brant Daugherty explained in a behind-the-scenes video that whenever he'll watch The Baker's Son, he will recall that the day that they filmed the scene on the dock he was waiting for his son to be born! So is the title of the movie actually referring to this?
