Great View
The house was super comfortable and we really appreciated that it was well stocked with all those things that are annoying to have to go out and find… toilet paper, paper towels, spices etc. We especially appreciated the coffee bar!Bed was comfortable, plenty of towels, soap, etc and communication with property manager excellent. And of course, the view was the best!

Fantastic Weekend Getaway
We were on Orcas for the weekend to visit friends. The property was perfect for our stay. Close to amenities, but not too close to the majority of visitors. The view from the balcony was beautiful, and the house was clean and had a fully stocked kitchen. I'd gladly visit the home again!

Ok - Not great
Gorgeous location and nice view
Deck is actually more of a balcony - too narrow to group four people into a circle
Nice tv and fireplace, nice appliances, rest of upstairs is pleasant. a minor remodel had been done recently.
Downstairs and especially the staircase not pleasant
Outside grounds uncared for.
Broken blinds in second bedroom, Key box finicky and most importantly NO COFFEE, fortunatlely we checked upon arrival and bought some in town.
Communication with property manager poor. I discovered with 5 days till arrival that we had not been billed for second half of payment. Reached out and got response late the following day, only by text - I called the phone number and was told unable to pick up phone.
Three stars is fair

Wonderful spring weekend
This house exceeded all our expectations. There was plenty of space for the four of us. The kids had plenty of open space in the living room. The kitchen was well stocked and everything was clean. Sherri was responsive and helpful with our questions.

Great location and comfortable home
The location was great, within minutes of town and Moran State Park. Quiet neighborhood and beautiful views of the water from the deck. The floor was a bit dirty upon check-in and we noticed quite a few ants roaming around, although there was at least one trap set out, but it wasn’t a big deal. Kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfortable and we really enjoyed our stay. Would stay here again.
House is beautiful and surrounding areas are quiet and gorgeous, nestled in a lovely woody area. Great view of the sound from the rooms as well as the deck. Host was great communicator.
