We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful and welcoming home near Roche Harbor.
This place is a true gem, and it has an impressive number of qualities that really make it stand out. First is the location. It is off a quiet road, and you feel like you are in the woods. It is a beachfront house with all the great things beaches in the San Juans have to offer. Some of us saw a family of seals on “our” beach in the early morning hours and we saw osprey and herons and a lot other wildlife, as well as wonderful sunsets.
The house is lovely, meticulously cared-for, and has every amenity. The property has been in the family for more than one generation and they share the history of the home from back when there was only a platform on the beach, so it has a feeling of authenticity and depth. The two main bedrooms are surprisingly secluded from each other allowing privacy as well as shared spaces. There are many windows and a quiet sunroom. The two largest rooms have their own direct access to the outdoors.
The kitchen is really nice, and it has a lot of storage for pots, pans, and dinnerware. The place is outfitted with just about everything you could wish for.
The bathrooms need special mention. There are three (well, I guess 2 ½ ) bathrooms that have a total of one luxurious spa tub, 1 shower, 3 toilets.
Did I mention this is a gem? This is the kind of find you want to keep to yourself, it is so good. We highly recommend it
