Perfect Relaxing Waterfront Getaway!! Near Roche Harbor.

This 2 bedroom island getaway is the perfect spot to relax, read a book and enjoy the north end of San Juan Island. The open floor plan of this home is perfect for a couple's getaway or family adventure. Each of the two bedrooms has a Queen sized bed, plus there is a Queen sized sleeper sofa located in the open space between the living room and kitchen. The house sleeps 6 people. The large kitchen and living room are lined with windows to maximize the beautiful and diverse, sunny views of Neil Bay. There is a mooring buoy for guest use.

Spend your day exploring the scenic surroundings in the bay or the many attractions in this area. Evenings can be enjoyed watching sunsets at the isthmus, or, with a board game around the dining room table. The wraparound deck makes wildlife spotting an easy activity at this home. River otters and seals can often be seen in the bay. Eagles, hawks, and many other northwest birds are known to frequent the tall trees of Davison Head as well.

Stayed here for 3 nights as a family of four and had plenty of room. What a gorgeous property with amazing views of the bay and many places to sit and relax and take in the sights. Extremely clean and comfortable and everything you need in a home. They even include small details like extra batteries and binoculars to check out the harbor seals!

Pros:Communication with the rental company was very quick and efficient. The property and the view of the water was beautiful. The shower is hot. The laundry room was great. There was a lot of extra linens, pillows, and blanket blankets.Very clean house and there was ample cutlery, dishes and serving plates.Cons:If you like to cook and need a sharp knife, bring your own. There was a knife sharpener, but it was dull.The towels provided or thin and small the type that you get in a motel. I would suggest the rental company provide full-size bath towels, and more of them. We would appreciate that or bring your own. There needs to be more fans in the house during the summer. There are no overhead ceiling fans. The ones that were provided were to the ground. There are only two small screened in windows in the kitchen and living room.

Response from VrboOwner on Oct 13, 2023
We are glad you enjoyed your time at this lovely waterfront home. It would be good to note that a 4 pm check in time is standard for homes of this size, however, we were able to accommodate a 2:30 PM check-in time on this check-in date. We try our very best to allow guests to check-in to homes as soon as they are deemed ‘renter-ready’, after our cleaning staff has completed and the property manager performs a final walk-through.

Relaxing get away

My husband, son, and I had a wonderful time while staying in your beautiful home. I had coffee at the metal table and chairs every morning and took many sun rise pictures. We had difficulty with the WiFi to connect to our home town football game (Go Steelers!) until we switched to the 5G and he was finally able to watch the game without losing connection on my IPad. Then we lost the game. Thank you again and I hope to stay again soon!

2 day family stay

Great experience in a comfortable, clean home. All was expected with an abundance for conveniences . As a rare VRBO user we didn’t know to bring our own shampoo / conditioner. Perhaps something to add to the precheck in instructions? Otherwise a really great stay - complete with ? sea lions / seals ? playing in the harbor outside our window!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property and location were perfect for our family. It was about a 25 min drive to Friday Harbor, where most things are located, but the drive was peaceful and easy. Roche Harbor is a relatively close though. Regardless, We all loved returning to the house in the afternoon to just chill in the peaceful surroundings. The views from the living area and kitchen were beautiful.
