A blissful slice of heaven!

This was truly the perfect vacation spot! Gorgeous fixtures and decor inside paired with the idyllic, countryside feel outside made for such a relaxing time. We saw a buck right when we arrived, and took our time out on the patio just enjoying the scenery. Lots of places to relax, including a very nice hot tub and fire pit for s'mores. It was pretty close to town, so we were able to look around and shop very easily. We recommend this getaway to anyone who might want some time relaxing in nature!

Working out the kinks of a new listing

This property has tons of promise, great location and personal touches in the decor. Well stocked kitchen, great yard for the dogs. The cleaners were there after check in time and let in bugs and some cleaning to be desired but the property owners were quite responsive to problems that arose.

Quiet, spacious property with birds for neighbors

As an outdoor lover, I really enjoyed staying in this property that's at the end of a dirt road, wooded, and quiet. The house was clean, and as a foody, I must say, this was the best-stocked kitchen I've ever seen in a rent. We wanted for nothing. I would have liked to know the jaccuzzi would need 3 days to heat up fully, and central heating would be great (since in winter the house is cold and room heaters or the gas fireplace heat the house), but the firepit and ameneties were fantastic. Would visit again with a big group.

Great for families & groups

Lovely house about 3 miles from Friday Harbor. Six of us were on bicycles and had a car to carry our luggage. The house was very comfortable, the spacious kitchen worked well and the hot tub was a welcome feature after our rides. There were plenty of towels, blankets & pillows for everyone. The house sits at the end of the road so it is very private & quiet. We had to ride some gravel to the main road but is was hard packed which made it easy. The host was quick to respond to all our questions. I definitely recommend it!

Property was quiet and private. Kitchen was stocked beyond our expectations. We had some very hot days so the single, portable AC unit had difficulty keeping up, but nights were cool for sleeping. Comfortable beds.

We came for the 4th of July. Enjoyed the property’s location - close to Friday Harbor but away from the crowds. Easy drive to Roche. Very safe. Accommodated 4 adults and 4 kids easily. Would certainly stay again!

Great seclusion with safety

Husband and I took 2 sons with their fanilies and sister in law. The kids and our 2 dogs were able to romp around freely without worry for their safety or about them bothering neighbors. Spa was a great touch for ending busy days of actvities. Had a couple of fires in the nice sized pit, and played some cornhole too. The inside of the house was well kept, well stocked kitchen including drip, french press, and keurig coffee makers. Nice stock of pans, baking tools and sharp knives. Great grill and outside dining set. Bedrooms clean and plenty of linens. Great place to stay for family gathering. Board games to play, and plenty of spaces inside and out for some alone time too. Highly recommend.

Stressful and disappointing

Host let me check in an hour and half early and stay 2 hours later at check out which I appreciated Nice house, very clean except for hot tub When the lights went out do old wiring in house we I used the microwave there was no flashlight to find the fuse box the house was not prepared for guests No manual to explain where things like the kitchen garbage can and the hot tub was dirty and not warm on my arrival the day before the retreat The host was responsive telling me where to find things and get cleaners to go get supplies but things continued to cease to work such as the kitchen sink It I should not have had to spend my retreat time calling her and Fixing and finding things Heat in one bedroom and the fireplace stopped working The other women complained about fireplace, kitchen sink, no useable microwave and dirty hot tub The host said she was too busy to write a manual which seemed uncaring of her guests One thing after another didn’t work or quit working and took away from our retreat time At the retreat we spent way to much time trying to fix things or figure them out and contacting the host I told her I thought she should compensate me for a less than relaxing stay and I expected she’d refund a day but it was 150 refunded which is decidedly not reasonable

Great place to stay, close to town but not right in it.

Our construction crew stayed at the house while working on a street project. They enjoyed the hot tub, board games and all the other stuff available. Plenty of hot water, towels and blankets! Enough room for everyone to have their own space.

Great secluded stay close to Friday Harbor

We love Friday Harbor and this was a great place for our family who was in town for graduation. The space worked great for three adults and three kids (and it could hold more)- we felt very spread out and really enjoyed how nice the home is. The property is at the end of a gravel road that is well-maintained (but a bit narrow so drive slowly) so you really do feel out in the country (yet you are back in Friday Harbor in 10 minutes). It is extremely peaceful, with nice relaxing mornings with deer roaming around in the morning. Such a great setting. The upstairs is relaxing with a nice kitchen and living room/sitting area, with nice views of the property out the upstairs windows. There is a little game room space downstairs before heading down the hall to the downstairs bedrooms. It is a great layout. There are also some fun things to see/do on the property - hot tub, garden, nice tent, firepit with sitting area, etc. Highly recommend. Well maintained and very relaxing. I do recommend trying to arrive during the daylight as the gravel road could be confusing that leads there at night (but you will get there, don't worry and after you navigate it once, it is a breeze).

Hidden Gem

Spacious hidden gem in the middle of the island in Friday Harbor. House is cute, nicely remodeled and fit 6 adults and a toddler easily. The owner had some issues with the check in process, but once that was cleared up it was a great experience. Hot tub and campfire outside in the middle of the woods is exactly what we wanted!
