This property is lovely, location excellent, communication excellent , stocked perfectly everything you could want. Will absolutely stay again when on island. Highly recommend! Just an absolutely beautiful property!
This house is adorable, historic, and unique to the area. It was very clean and beautifully decorated. It is out in the woods, so just know that nothing is in the immediate area; but it is easy enough to get around the island. Great location near Roche Harbor. We loved our stay and hope to rent here again in the future!
Thank you for letting us stay in your place. This house has so much charm! It is clean, has all the cooking supplies you will need and the details taken in the set up of this place are adorable! Walkable to downtown Roche Harbor, a perfect place to stay! Highly recommend!
Loved our stay. The house is very nice and clean. We loved the larger property and privacy from the surrounding woods. We would definitely come back.

This cottage was very cozy and clean, with a very welcoming atmosphere. The beds were good and the a\c helped maintain a good temperature in the home. Though there is a 15-18 minute drive to Friday harbor, the drive is very visualistic. My only recommendation for those who plan to stay is to bring additional flashlights or an led lantern as it can get quite dark outside with no road lights, or lights around the open space beyond the home leading to complete darkness at night.

We were attending a wedding at the nearby resort (roche harbor) and found this house after seeing the resort prices - it was perfect for our family of four plus a visiting family member for three nights and calm and much more our style than the resort. Very cozy and well remodeled, a classy interior. The home mentions the fire pit but a burn ban is on all summer, would be helpful to mention that. The home absolutely requires a car it is, to note.

Pearlie Cottage was the perfect place to stay with kids and grandparents for our 4 days on San Juan Island. The house was immaculate and very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies and there were plenty of towels and linens. We would definitely stay at Pearlie cottage again. Also the property management company was very organized and prompt to respond to emails.

This rental was very clean, updated, and comfortable. The location was perfect for access to Roche Harbor. The space upstairs was more than expected and the beds were glorious! We would definitely stay here again!
This was such a great place! We were a group of 7 and from 2-71 years old. We all enjoyed our stay very much! Everything we needed was there and the beds were all very comfortable. We were lucky enough to have deer come through and also a few fox! We would definitely stay here again!
This is the 2nd time my family and I have stayed at this beautiful home!

This property is beautiful, clean, and thoughtfully decorated. It had everything we needed and more. There were some basics in the pantry and some quick options too. The month of May is cold in the Pacific Northwest, so we didn't plan to sit out at night. The Tv has Netflix and prime and there is free wifi. There is a winery nearby and a resort with spa options. We will definitely return!

We loved Pearlie Lane Cottage. We stayed with our adult kids and spouses. The description was accurate and there were no surprises. The home and yard were very clean and maintained. We received good communication from management. The only item not specified (but we called) was they don't provide wood for the fire pit. It didn't take long to get to and from downtown Friday Harbor and it's a beautiful drive. They had outdoor lighting on the deck. Unfortunately, we couldn't see where they turned on. It was the most well-appointed kitchen I have experienced. Lots of extras!! We loved the privacy and quiet surroundings. It was easy to feel at home. One disappointment is the check-out time. It seems quite early to have to be out of the home (10am)

Reviewer Comments:
This property is one of the most charming vacation rentals I’ve ever stayed in! Not only was it extremely clean and very well kept, the house itself was shipped over on a barge from Victoria, BC and plopped on a foundation on this beautiful property (I learned this from a wonderful book they have on the house inside the rental)! It is completely surrounded by trees with a great deck and feels very private without being too secluded. There is so much character to this home and it has been so well preserved and my family and I couldn’t get over how much we loved it. Everything was spotless, fresh towels were provided for the number of guests staying in the home, and the check out instructions were very clear and easy to follow.I think it’s important to note that the upstairs space that has two beds does not have air conditioning. We happen to be visiting during a very hot weekend for the island (80+ degrees), but they did include two fans, that when placed in the windows, really cooled the space down. I would absolutely recommend this property to anybody looking to stay in the Friday Harbor/Roche Harbor area!
