The Funhouse: Engaging Activities For All Ages
For an unforgettable vacation experience minutes away from most Eastsound cottages, check out the Funhouse. The Funhouse is a non-profit community center for children ages seven to eighteen. Sporting such high-tech features as a music recording studio with instruments to play, a computer lab, a thermal wall screen, a video production room and a rock climbing wall, the Funhouse is a very popular place for kids and teens to spend their time while on Orcas Island.

Unplug and Play Outside
Like all San Juan Islands vacation rentals, you'll get the most out of the location by going out and enjoying the atmosphere. If your family wants to truly experience the San Juan Islands, step out of the Eastsound cottages and head to the water. Try Orcas Island Sailing to learn how to sail a day boat or take a 3-hour guided kayak tour. Visit Crescent Beach for a stroll and maybe do some beachcombing for shells or treasures in the surf. For fun on land, try hiking up Mt. Constitution in Moran State Park, taking a horseback ride on the trails, fishing, or even going camping. This is the Northwest in all its splendor--once you have a taste of it you'll want to return soon!
