Tranquil Bayfront Home with Covered Deck & Large Lawn - Close to Beach
Fisherman Bay Beach House
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Quiet and private, this spacious three bedroom with room for eight is poised - like an island on an island - on a tiny peninsula jutting out from peaceful Lopez Island. Just 10 minutes from the shops, cafes and galleries in Lopez Village, this lovely home on scenic and tranquil Fisherman Bay is your ticket to a total Lopez Island experience!
Stylish, roomy, and comfortable, this bi-level, chalet-style home sits on a sea of green right next to the bay. After cycling up to the village or exploring the nearby beach, park the bikes and unwind in the spacious living area under a wood-lined, vaulted ceiling.
Have a seat on the plush couch or kick off your shoes and put your feet up on the ottoman. You could catch a cable show on the flat-screen smart TV or bring up the laptop and check on local events and sites... but chances are, the view of the bay through the window-studded wall will distract you. Why resist? Slip out onto the huge, covered deck and sip your drink as you watch the activity out on the bay.
If you're traveling with a larger group, you'll find the home has plenty of cozy spots for everyone to slip off and enjoy a little peace and quiet. While everyone else is catching up in the living room by the fireplace, there's a relaxing den with pull-out sofa and another smart TV, perfect for an afternoon nap.
There are two bedrooms upstairs, each with a full bed, and a third bedroom with a queen bed downstairs. Along with the sofabed, up to eight guests can comfortably share the space. The home also has two full bathrooms and a washer and dryer, so you can pack light!
Though there are some pretty nice places to eat about 10 minutes away in the village, you may want to prepare some meals yourself. No problem! You'll have everything you'll need to fix a great meal - morning, noon, or night - in this fully equipped kitchen with a big refrigerator, microwave, and plenty of cabinet space to hold the supplies you brought. And remember, you're in seafood country, so how about some surf and turf? Just click on the gas grill and enjoy a barbecue out in the beautiful outdoors.
And speaking of the outdoors... this special waterfront property sits right on Fisherman Bay, with a wide grassy lawn leading to a low-bank rocky beach. This is a great place for kayakers. If you decide to venture beyond your own front yard, you'll find that Lopez Island is 15 miles long, eight miles wide, and is mostly rolling hills and flat pastureland. This makes it a perfect environment for cyclists who can test their mettle (without battling hills) on the 30-mile loop around the island that will take you through Spencer Spit Park, Odlin Park, and MacKaye Harbor.
Or, lace up the hiking boots and take on one of the parks with trails to explore in Shark Reef Sanctuary that will take you through old growth woods and along scenic coastal vistas. For your taste of tourism, head up to Lopez Village where you can purchase souvenirs in the shops and galleries, have a great meal in one of six eateries, or just have a picnic among the beautiful island environment.
Whether you choose to just hang out at this beautiful home or go out and explore the rugged coastal beauty of Lopez Island, you'll come away with lots of memories and, very likely, an urge to return soon!

Property was in a nice location. However the house is creepy at night. There’s ants everywhere. There was a chair already broken on arrival and when I tried getting in contact with the owners. They wouldn’t answer. Overall the house is nice but still has a lot of flaws.

Great location
The space in the house is great for 6-8 people because of the great deck. Floors were not swept but bathrooms were clean and nice linens. Bee hive or hornet's nest above deck. We needed to buy toilet paper. We'd go back!
We had a wonderful stay! Linens, paper towels, toilet paper cups, bowls, silverware and bath towels were plentiful. Bedrooms were good size and comfortable. We saw bald eagles from the deck and got to see sea planes taking off and landing. Kitchen is small and there is not a dishwasher. We would stay here again.

Lopez GetAway
The wall of windows and covered porch make the place!! Private and quiet dead end road with access to beaches, walking& biking right out the door. Only a few minutes drive to Lopez Village for bike & kayak rentals, restaurants and shops.
The kitchen is simply equipped, missing a few basics, with an awkward configuration if you are planning to cook.

Great place for two families!
Stayed here with my sister's family and mine, we had 3 kids and 4 adults, but really could have squeezed a few more in. Beds were plentiful and having 4 separate rooms was fantastic.
The location was fabulous with great views and an awesome big backyard to play in.
Only issue we had was a severe lack of cups! There were far too view drinking glasses and mugs for a large group. An extra cutting board would have been nice also.

Tranquil setting on the water
Quiet place on the water close to village. Great value! Bring some glassware as they are a little short.
The home had black mold in the bedrooms. The downstairs bedroom had horrible smell and the laundry room next to it was full of chemicals and rat traps. The bath towels were dirty. The home was not clean. The home manager was great with communication and we asked to leave the property and he refunsed us and apologized.

A nice base for a weekend on Lopez.
This was a nice place to stay and use as a home base for the weekend on Lopez. We came for the "Tour de Lopez" and especially enjoyed hanging out on the back porch after the ride. Due to conflicts that came up for some of the family, there was a lot more space than we needed, but it would be nice for a larger group, too, and the price was still very reasonable. It's a quiet location, a little out of the way, but very peaceful!

We all enjoy the house. Everything was pretty clean, but the kitchen needs an upgrade. Also all the pans and cooking utensils. The windows were pretty dirty on the living room but other than that everything was perfect.

Great Location
Great location, great space and clean! The price is very fair and if there was a need, once it was able to be communicated the need was met immediately.
Great open space in back, lawn games were entertaining! Use the space!
Concerns included need for more basic amenities like kitchen towels, toilet paper, and we needed to call for kitchen garbage bags. The kitchen could use an upgrade in cookware, and the grill needs an upgrade or to be maintained. Concerns that are easily addressed and should not make the determination of booking the house or not!
Thank you for the great vacation! We will be back given the chance!

Do Not Rent
Do not rent this house unless you plan to spend most of your stay cleaning it. The house is in horrible condition and customer service is nonexistent.
Having stayed in many VRBOs and other rentals in multiple countries, I can safely say this is the worst rental I have ever encountered. The sheets were stained and dirty, the floors covered in dirt, stains on the walls, every dish in the kitchen was filthy, as were the pots and pans. We spent the entirety of our first night in the property washing sheets and towels (including towels in the pantry, which were also disgusting), and scrubbing the kitchen to make it usable.
The "cleaning fee" the company charges is a scam, since it has very clearly not been cleaned in years.
We notified the corporate owner/renter of the property of these issues by e-mail and text; but the company never replied.
Other low-lights:
* The roof leaks, so bring buckets. If it rains, it drips in the living room.
* The back door was open and unlocked when we arrived, so there are clear safety concerns.
* The kitchen appliances are ancient and barely functional.
* The stove is so dirty that anytime you turn it on, it burns the residue from the past dozen occupants that the company never cleaned up after.
* The barbecue grates are broken.
* The lounges on the front deck are also broken.
* In addition to the surface-level filth, the house needs a very, very deep clean. The stains on the walls and ceilings are obviously not new.
It's tempting to give the house another star because of the location (excellent), how great Lopez Island is, and the ease of getting into Lopez village, but the reality is that the house itself is an embarrassment.
You will have problems renting it, and the rental company is unresponsive.

Great location
We enjoyed our stay on Lopez Island. The only comment for improvement is we had to call three times during our stay for garbage bags, gas for the grill ( both tanks were empty) and only given 4 small rolls of TP and it was a special trailer kind that was very small. Not enough for 5 people for 7 days. I called each time we needed something and they were quick to bring it to us.

This was a cute and clean house. Very comfortable and relaxing. Close to town. Only suggestion two suggestions cut the lower grass for easier access to water and better garbage holders, wildlife got into the trash all weekend. Other then that it was peaceful!

Mouse poop on bottom level
There was mouse poop everywhere on the bottom level. The bedroom, and extra tv room, behind the couch, in the closets, under the bed and dressers. More and more accumulated over the week. No one has done anything about it, just a "sorry". We were unable to use the bottom level because of the mouse poop. It was a very frustrating experience. There was no where else to stay and we planned to go to the on a vacation with our family.
The house is in a great location for biking places with littles. The upper level was cozy but too small for our family since we were planning on using the lower level too.
Another thing that was disappointing was there was no dvd player even though it said there was. The property manager brought one over and left it on the table. No cords and he didn't even hook it up. It wasn't even the right kind. It didn't connect to the newer tvs. We were planning on watching our old family favorites before bed.
The beach infront of the house was muddy and the trail down had old wood with some nails sticking out.
I would not recommend this house to anyone unless the mouse issue has been taken care of.
The experience with the house was very frustrating and disappointing. We love Lopez Island, but not this house!

Wonderful Accomodations
The home was wonderful - a quiet getaway in one of the most beautiful places on earth. We planned our stay over perhaps the worst (best!) weather circumstances possible (>12inches of snow)!
The host went out of their way to ensure we knew exactly what weather conditions were present and made certain we would have the proper vehicle to access the property (gravel road without snow removal). The host found a snow shovel and cleared a parking area as well as a path to the front door - ensuring a safe and smooth arrival.
The home itself was fantastic. Perfectly clean with everything we needed for a quiet get-away. The kitchen was perfectly equipped to prepare any food required, we were able to make breakfast, lunch and dinner, dessert and sugar cookies. We were warm and cozy with plenty of room in multiple gathering areas. The deck is large, the main TV/game/sitting area is very large. Additional TV/office area downstairs. It felt like it was our own little home away from home. I wish we could have stayed much longer!
Ensure to keep everything clean, and food put away in the refrigerator. We did see a few ants in the kitchen, but it was not an issue. Certainly nothing to detract from staying there again.

Great location, amenities could use some work.
Great location for viewing the water. Amenities were minimal - had to improvise to make meals in the kitchen. Outside grill wasn't working properly. Bedrooms were okay but could use a few more night stands. Trash cans were not marked for recycling. It would have been nice to have the cable TV included. The note in the kitchen said we were "guest in the house" didn't make us feel at home.

Nice location on Lopez
Nice deck and excellent location. Close to nature preserve with nice hiking. Not far from town. Nice views, saw lots of bunnies and deer. Very quiet and peaceful. Beds overall comfortable but the pull out was not. Overall clean but carpet could use some cleaning/TLC. TV did not tune local channels or cable but you could watch a DVD. Grill needed cleaning and the auto lighter did not work. It would have been nice if there were more amenities like wood for fireplace, basic condiments like black pepper, tea bags or coffee. Need enough table settings for six adults. Need enough drinking glasses for six adults. There were only two wine glasses. Would stay again for a lower price. Price point was too high for the amenities even given the holiday weekend.

Perfect island retreat!
We stayed with our three children for a few days in the off season. The weather was perfect, the views from the deck ore incredible, and the trip was perfect! We brought breakfast and lunch stuff with us and found everything we needed in the kitchen. Dinner out at The Galley was delicious! We enjoyed our trip so much and can’t wait to return soon!
