Water View Retreat with Private Hot Tub, Deck, and Grill

  • Summary:

    The Wilker House



    The Space:

    Indulge in pure, Orcas Island serenity at this enchanting two-bedroom home. Just minutes from Eastsound Village, enjoy sweeping views of the sound, with Madrona Point and Crescent Beach visible across the water. Sitting on over an acre at the end of a road, you'll feel world's away from everything while having the advantage of easy access to island attractions. Lucky guests enjoying the July 4th holiday festivities at the home will be in awe of the epic, unparalleled views of the Eastsound Firework Show!



    From morning coffee to sunset cocktails, you won't want to miss a moment out on the stunning, water view deck. Soak in the bubbling, in-ground hot tub or fire up the gas grill for an unforgettable backyard barbecue experience.



    The lux interior features cathedral ceilings, skylights, and ample windows creating a breezy, bright atmosphere professionally designed with bespoke art and high-end furniture from Noir and Palacek, among others. The full kitchen showcases custom counters and updated, stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher and five-burner gas grill. Full meals can be enjoyed together at the dining table set for six. At the end of the day, sink into the sectional sofa and unwind with your favorite shows and movies on the living room smart TV.



    As an added bonus, the sunny garden shed has been converted to an intimate studio/writing cabin complete with a twin sofabed and dedicated desk area - perfect for a quick video call or to work on that novel.

Perfect basecamp for exploring Orcas

Situated a couple minutes' drive from Eastsound, the Wilker House was a perfect spot from which to check out the rest of the island. The hot tub and gas fireplace inside were particular highlights. Would stay again. Thanks yall!

Cozy, peaceful getaway

Spent a long weekend exploring Orcas Island during the day and relaxing in the evenings. Between the stores on the island and the well-stocked kitchen, we had everything we needed to cook delicious meals. The house itself was beautiful and full of light. Would definitely stay again!

Fabulous sunsets over East Sound

My gal pals and I enjoyed every moment in this well-equipped home overlooking the waters of East Sound. Just a few minutes (by car) from the village of East Sound, the home was easy to find and filled with extras like a washer/dryer, hot tub, streaming services, deck with outdoor dining & grill, plenty of towels, all necessary cleaning supplies, and a bonus writer's retreat. We enjoyed being here so much that we canceled one of our dinner reservations and ate at home, overlooking the gorgeous sunset. We wish every vacation home was as welcoming!

Beautiful view

We really enjoyed the location of this property- private, great view, easy access to Eastsound and the state park. Spending time out on the deck was a highlight. House was stocked with detergents, toiletries, etc. The house could use a little TLC though (bathtub doesn’t drain well, dust bunnies flying everywhere when the fan was turned on, etc.). The bunk bed is super rickety, probably meant for kids but we had adults on it. Overall a good stay for the price!

Peaceful and Relaxing Getaway

Stayed in late October 2024. Wonderful home away from home that has everything for a true relaxing retreat. It is secluded in the woods with a beautiful view of trees and the sound from up on the hillside. Very quiet and peaceful location. Just slight intermitent road noise from highway down over the hill that can only be heard from the deck. Bonus is the hot tub in the deck. We enjoyed sunset views from the hot tub every evening. The living areas are comfortable, Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, utensils, and pots and pans. Drip coffee maker, but no coffee grinder. King bed is very comforrable.

Good, potential to be great

Location, stunning view, clean, amenities great, amazing property totally 5. Communication not great. Notified us right away of a hot tub leak that could have been dangerous and we are so very grateful. Leak fixed next day while we were out and never communicated until a day later. Also, no instructions about how to use the fireplace. Need towel bars and robe hooks! Loved this property and would return but needs better communication and some easy additions to support guests.

Serene stay close to town

Private lodging with a beautiful view, especially great for sunsets. We loved being able to cook at home and enjoy dinner on the deck. However, stove top skillets could use an update. We had an issue with there being no extra toilet paper stocked for 5 adults. But after notifying of our issue it was resolved in a few hours. There was also a slice of old pizza found in the oven when we went to preheat it and residue in the coffee pot. Otherwise the house was very clean, bedding was nice and comfortable. It was a great place for a family or close friends. We were close to town but felt removed from it for a nice weekend escape. The birdhouse off the deck was adorable to watch while we enjoyed coffee or drinks on the deck. We also saw a family of deer one morning. Overall, we loved our stay and the island.
