We had a great stay here. Sooo quiet and spacious. Plenty of room for our group of 7. Enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen and great location. Plus…the hosts were super responsive when we had a question and very helpful. We rented e-bikes from the ferry terminal and the house was easy to find. We were also very close to Eastsound if you need anything. We will be back and recommend to our friends.
We had a great stay here with our group of six! The house was the perfect home base for exploring Orcas Island. It was only a few minutes from the ferry and town, but it still felt like you were tucked away in the middle of the forest. The setting was absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. We loved sitting outside, enjoying the trees, and just taking in how quiet everything was. The house had plenty of room for all of us to spread out and was comfortable and well-equipped for our stay. We really enjoyed our time here and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
We stayed in July 2026 for 4 nights and the home is beautiful and fit our family of 7 very well. The beds, pillows and bedding are very comfortable, the home is virtually brand new and very clean. The kitchen had everything we needed for making most of our meals during our stay. The manager Kristen was very responsive to the one question we had. It's a very peacedul place, quiet with the sounds of birds and wind and a short drive to Eastsound and other spots on the island. We would love to visit again.

Perfect island stay: comfy home, great location, wonderful memories made.
The house is beautifully tucked away in the woods(yet only a short drive to Eastsound) - brand new, spacious, and very comfortable. The deck is the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee while listening to the birds, or to unwind in the evening with a cocktail or dinner. Kristen was an excellent property manager; she stepped in at the last minute after my original rental was double-booked, just as my family was already on the ferry to the island. Thanks to her quick response and support, our week together turned into a wonderful success.
