Why the Owner Chose Bainbridge Island
The vacation rental is a converted and extensively remodeled artist's studio, once home to the manufacture of lines of neo-ethnic personal and household accessories in fiber, clay and metal. We converted the space for ourselves during an extensive remodel to the main residence, and decided to share its comfortable ambiance with others.
The Unique Benefits of this Two-Story Apartment
Relaxing, quiet, natural location with filtered view of Eagle Harbor. Watch kayakers and rowers on the harbor, the interplay of osprey and eagle, light and shadow as the sun dapples through the gardens. Sip an exceptional glass of wine on the deck, add a day to your memoirs in the garden patio, write the first chapter of your best-seller in the study, create your own favorite cuisine in the full kitchen, or tuck into a good book on the comfy sofa in the living room of Harbor View Guesthouse. Close to two local parks, water access, bus lines, and just a seven-minute drive from the ferry and downtown Winslow, Harbor View Guesthouse has room for you to spread your wings, yet surrounds you with an intimate gracious ambience.
