Our Go To Spot on Orcas
3rd time staying here and it was great, as usual. The kitchen is pretty well stocked with the essentials, the yard is great for relaxing and playing with the kids and proximity to the beach down the street is always a plus.

Lovely Spot on Orcas Island!
My family (5 adults) 1 dog stayed here for a long weekend during our first visit to Orcas Island. The location was perfect for exploring different parts of the island and close to stores & restaurants in Eastsound. We loved walking to the private beach area each morning and evening to spot wildlife and enjoy the mountain & sunset views. The property itself was very clean with comfortable beds, ample supplies, and nice personal touches. The outdoor garden was beautiful and my brother's dog loved laying in the fenced in yard. We would definitely stay here again!

Quiet Weekend
The property is very clean and well stock. It has everything we need. I LOVE the garden!The neighborhood is really quiet. I like the early morning walk to the dock.I gave 4 stars for 2 reasons.- I really thought the property is by the beach. It's about a block down.- And the bed in the smaller room made noises with slight movements and we could hear it in the main bedroom in the middle of the night.Overall, this is one of the best houses that we have stayed in.

Spring Break Getaway
Our family had a perfect spring break getaway. Kristen was a wonderful and attentive host, the information on the online guide book was so helpful and appreciated and the house was amazing. There was everything we could need and more and it was so cozy. Our teenage son made the big great room his domain, the BBQ was so nice to do some grilling, and the view from the living room was so peaceful. We also enjoyed relaxing in the rocking chairs in the garden. We saw otters, seals, dear and the birds were always chirping. We enjoyed the beach and loved that we were in the middle of the island and everything was so easy to get to.

Christmas break
A great house and location to get away. We appreciated the games indoor and out, with a well appointed house with thoughtful touches.
