The most perfect place to share with family

What a perfect place to gather with family who stayed all over the island. Large decks and dining area, well stocked kitchen, a grill, lots of seating. Could not have been better outfitted for a lovely weekend. Don't miss the Sculpture Park and Cattle Point. Beautiful! Thank you to our hosts for all the thoughtful touches.
Amazing view
Kayaks and water access for personal craft. Easy paddle to oyster farm.

Perfect for a family gathering— even better than description.

This home and location are in one of the most magical places in the world. We traveled with a family of four, a family of three, and a grandma. Three kids total ages 3-13. The setting was perfect and walkable to so much Roche Harbor has to offer, even through the Roche Harbor community trails right behind the home. Having watersport gear like the kayaks was so fun. Ping-pong table was wonderful. The kitchen/living/dining space made sweet family memories. The view was beautiful through all weather, and the condition of the overall place was impeccably maintained and cleaner than almost any place I’ve ever been in. The hosts were easy and understanding when we had questions. We’d happily stay here again. Feels like being in a (very neat and tidy!) friend’s home.

2nd Stay Just as Great as the 1st

This was our second time staying at this beautiful home. We enjoyed our stay so much last summer we brought my husband’s parents from the east coast back so we could show them the beauty of the San Juans and they fell in love too. The house has so many amenities and is so inviting. We enjoyed views and hanging out on the deck and at the fire pit the most! Looking forward to the next time we could return.

Roche Harbor Adventure

The property owners thought of everything. The kitchen was well appointed. The deck was just power washed and had comfortable deck furniture. The kayaks and paddle boards were easily assessed. Just 5 minutes from Roche Harbor resort pickleball courts which were just resurfaced in May 2025. There were just four adults and one canine kid. Thank you for sharing your retreat!

Pictures don't do it justice!

We booked late and I was worried about not having a great choice - this house is awesome!! Great sized rooms, convenient bathrooms that are updated; perfect layout for everyone to hang out. The location is the best! Right up the hill from the sculpture garden, we should have planned more time there! Roche Harbor is a 2 min drive, we ate there twice at both restaurants and picked up coffee in the morning. 15 min drive into Friday Harbor, 10 mins to Lime Kiln. We saw otters and baby fox!! My only comment - and it did not bother us at all; is the spiral staircase to two of the bedrooms. Well stocked, good beds! Thanks!

Second time at this property and it certainly lived up to our wonderful memories. Relaxing mornings drinking coffee while the sun comes up over the bay. Fun days exploring island adventures nearby. Delicious food at Westcott Bay Shellfish. And restful and relaxing evenings by the fire in this beautiful home. We’ll certainly be back!
