Pluses of this property: It is clean, well-cared for, smells good, and The Location! Waking up to that view of the water was incredible. The queen beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well-stocked, and the barbecue works well. It's bright and beautiful, and I think it would be a beautiful place to stay as the leaves are turning in the Fall or during a Winter storm. We enjoyed the kayaks - it's a gentle area of the Sound to paddle. We saw Orcas from the patio! A mama and three babies swam and played their way past us twice! It's quiet, with an exception... Minuses: Big hidden fees. My 3 day stay cost more than 50% over the rental cost. The bunk beds are very noisy, and the bedrooms are small, so the bunk room is a very tight squeeze. There is a live outdoor music venue next door (they stopped playing about 9:30). There are no window coverings for the big east-facing windows, and there's no A/C, so the sun heats the house up early in the day. It was hot and stuffy in the bedrooms (it was only in the low 80's outside) but the fans helped and there are enough for each bedroom. I personally wouldn't stay here during a hot stretch - I grew up in Western Washington visiting various parts of Puget Sound and lived in Seattle, and this is the least windy spot I've ever been to. The lack of wind is mostly a plus, but not when it comes to cooling down the house. With all of that said, I would definitely stay here again - it's a breath of fresh air!
