My family and I had a wonderful time; it was better than we expected so peaceful and cozy. The home was just right for the 4 of us and our dog. The view from the deck is amazing even though it might be a little bit blocked by some trees but none the less great. All the rooms had their own climate setting, we had such a nice weather that we hardly used the heat. The house is well stocked with basic items you might need, beds were so comfy had no problems sleeping even though back pain is an issue. Everything is so close by, Moran state park is just a few minutes away with lots of trails and nature walks. The house was very clean and neat the owners provided a binder with all sorts of helpful information while you stay there. We are so pleased with how easy it was to set up the arrangement and the owners responded to our emails immediately. Overall we are extremely happy we found a little piece of heaven on earth! Thanks Rick, we hope to be back again soon! Brent and Ana Pedersen
Owner's reply:
Hello Brent and Ana,
We appreciate your talking the time to let us know about your visit to beautiful Orcas Island. We are glad you had a nice time and look forward to hearing from you again.
Thanks,

My family (2 adults, 9-year-old, and dog) spent 4 very happy days here in late December. For us, the house was perfect! The gorgeous view sets the tone - but in addition, a wonderful layout, generously-stocked kitchen, enclosed dog run, and fantastic selection of movies, puzzles etc made us all feel welcome, and enabled us to fully relax and recharge. The proximity to Moran State Park is also fantastic! We enjoyed several spectacular hikes, easily accessible from the house. The owners were wonderful to deal with, even following through to locate and return a small and seemingly-insignificant item we had left. The house is perfectly clean and well-maintained. Overall, this place is a gem!

This home was absolutely beautiful and a joy to stay at. Zero problems, stocked with every little detail possible, close to Moran State Park and Eastsound...we loved it! The area for the dogs was great to have, and when we forgot shampoo we found it provided in a cabinet with a nice little note. The owners have thought have thought of everything with this place....highly recommended!

Our stay in this home was comfortable, relaxing, and quiet - exactly what we had been looking for. The home is beautiful and very clean, with a view of the sound that's out of this world. Several deer and a bald eagle highlighted our visits to the yard and deck, and we loved watching the ferries, sailboats, and water planes come and go in the distance. The owners are extremely nice, and even granted us a special request that made our stay an even better experience. I would recommend a getaway to this home to anyone!

First off I have to agree with all the reviews that state "the pictures do not do this home justice". My wife and I rented this home with my brother and his wife for just a weekend get away. We were all so pleasantly surprised how spacious, cozy and beautiful this home is. The home has wi-fi, phone, and satellite tv, all amenities we chose not to use, but rather enjoy the quiet and the expansive views. Our Chow Chow Milo LOVED sitting on the porch and taking in the sounds of the wildlife and the feeling the cool breeze. The owners are completely down to earth and quite possibly the easiest and kindest I have dealt with in the many years of vacation rentals. I HIGHLY recommend taking advantage of this truly hidden gem on Orcas Island.

My husband and I rented this property with another couple and spent the Thanksgiving holiday there. It was an amazing home and I would recommend it to anyone. The photos of the home show it off well, although I must say that the views and the property are even more beautiful in person. We arrived there in the dark on Thursday evening so we were unsure what to expect in the morning, and woke up to a gorgeous sunrise over East Sound. Very beautiful. We had two dogs with us - a border collie and a German Shepherd - and they loved the home as well. The dog run is great if you have dogs and there are plenty of dog friendly hikes all over the island. We enjoyed exploring Moran State Park, which is practically right next door to this home, and the Turtleback Mountain trails. The home was very clean and had all the amenities you could need. Trust me....we made Thanksgiving dinner here and the kitchen is very well stocked! The little town of East Sound is close and had some nice restaurants and shops. We had the most wonderful time and would definitely consider renting this home again. Thank you for a great Thanksgiving vacation!!!!

Every bit as good as advertised. Well appointed, well managed, charming home. Numerous hiking opportunities right out the front door. Surprisingly good restaurants, cafe's, shops, and friendly locals. Privacy and serenity in spades!

This house is wonderful! The house does not come off as a rental house. It comes across as a home lived in by friends who have let you use their home for a week. The kitchen is well stocked with just about anything you could possibly want in order to cook. We typically ate two meals a day at "home" and never needed anything in order to cook that wasn't in the kitchen. The house is nicely furnished, and it's stocked with books, movies, and games. The deck overlooking East Sound has a table and chairs and a gas grill. The view is gorgeous (as is witnessed by the number of pictures I have of ferries crossing East Sound in the sun, fog, rain, and all times of day)! The master suite has a wonderful whirlpool-style tub that easily fits two people. This was a wonderful way to finish a day of hiking and kayaking. The house is ideal for dogs. Out the side door, down a flight of stairs, and they're in a side yard that is fully fenced. There are even spare dog dishes in case you forgot to bring yours. The house is located just up the road from the Rosario Beach Resort, about a mile from the entrance to Moran State Park, and approximately a mile from hikes around Cascade Lake. I highly recommend staying in this house for a vacation, and I look forward to staying there again.

My wife and I have been planning to go to the San Juans for the longest time. Finally we went and it was incredible. The views are fantastic. This home was so well decorated, very warm and friendly. My kids couldn't believe the deer would come right up to the front door to eat! Very clean and comfortable inside. The island even in Feb. offered hikes, sightseeing, but overall just a great place to relax and unwind. And if we wanted to stay connected to the "outside world" there was always high speed WIFI and Directv.

My husband and I decided to take a small break from the hectic Christmas holidays with a trip to Orcas Island with our furkids. The home and view were absolutly lovely, breathtaking really. We happened to arrive during a very snowy time for the Pacific Northwest and the beauty of the homes' surroundings were awesome. I was walking past the front door one evening and there standing on the front walkway was Bambi! My husband hand fed her two apples, one banana, two granola bars, and a half pack of wheat crackers. Boy was she hungry! Good Times!
Amazing House!

We had such a great time at this house. We were traveling as 2 families and this house was perfect. The view was amazing and the house was perfectly set up. We were traveling with two small children, 7 months and 14 months old, so we needed a comfortable house to hang out in when they were napping and off to their early bedtimes. There were games and toys in on of the bedrooms for entertainment, which was great because we forgot to bring them. We were close to a great trail and hiked around the lake. The town was only about 15 minutes away and had lots of great little shops. The owner was very friendly and even provided us with a great list of shops, entertainment and restaurants. I would highly recommend this property to anyone and hope to go back one day.
Owner response: Hello Amanda- THANK YOU for your kind and thoughtful comments!! We try our best to make our house a wonderful place for our valued guests. We look forward to hearing from you again!!

We just got home this evening from Orcas but I wanted to take a minute to send a very sincere thank you for allowing us to rent your house on Orcas Island. WOW - what beautiful home - it is truly a 5 star home in every aspect - from the outstanding detail to attention - to the large and functional rooms to the amazing view. We totally enjoyed our stay and had a great and very relaxing time. Your home is nicer than most 5 star hotels and was warm and inviting. You have done a great job in decorating and giving it that very warm - "homey" feel. We were very fortunate to have nice sunny weather for our stay and enjoyed touring the island. Our dogs loved the great dog run - what a nice way to have it enclosed and attached to the deck. I took them on two large walks every day and they just loved the island. Hopefully - we can rent your place again in the future. Once again - you have a beautiful home and our sincere thanks in letting us rent and enjoy it. Sincerely Earl & Jan Kosty Surrey, BC Canada
Owner response: Hello Earl & Jan- Your thoughful comments meant the world to us!! Thank you!!

We could not have been more thrilled when we walked in the front door. The home is beautiful and extremely comfortable. You can't begin to prepare yourself for the amazing view that awaits you from the living room, dining room and back deck. We just loved hanging out in the home, playing games & watching movies (it was spring break & the weather was cool & overcast but that didn't deter us one bit....we still loved it!) Everything you could possibly need was there....games, movies, books, soft linens, dishes, cookware. Truly, what a wonderful place to spend a vacation. We can't wait to come back!
Owner response: Your thoughtful comments are MUCH APPRECIATED!! We look forward to your return.

We will definitely make a trip back to this hidden treasure. The home is beautifully decorated - we felt as if we were in a hotel. Very clean and well kept. The view was spectacular from the living room and deck. Quiet is an understatement. Eagles, deer, rabbits - lots of wildlife right outside the door. Great selection of movies and books. We celebrated our 30th anniversary here and we can't think of anywhere else we would have rather been.
Owner response: Thanks for taking the time to add your comments. That means alot!!
