Buckhorn vacation rentals

Pictures hardly do this place justice - the view and location of the property were priceless. Sitting out on the wraparound deck each night was a dream. We were a multi-generational family of 8 including 3 kids under 3 and the house had everything we could have needed and more than enough space to accommodate us all comfortably. Fully stocked kitchen, clean and modern bedroom and bathrooms, and the little outdoor playhouse was icing on the cake. Anyone would be lucky to spend a week at Anneli’s while on Orcas and we hope to be back one day!

This is a really fantastic vacation rental. The listing is super accurate - it’s an older place, with lots renovated. Bathrooms are great, and the living/dining/kitchen all being open to each other is fantastic. The real star however is the views, deck, and hot tub. You would be really hard pushed to find a better view in a vacation property. Really clear view of mount baker. Sit and watch fishermen and otters go by. Walk down to the water and take a dip in the ocean. It’s idyllic. Easy access to Eastsound and Moran State Park.

We love The Lookout. It was our fourth time staying here, and we hope to keep coming back!

This was our first visit to Orcas Island, and it won't be our last. This home was everything we needed it to be. The view, the comfort, the wonderful things that kept a family of 7 (all adults) entertained. If you're wondering if this is a perfect place to stay, IT IS!!!!

This is a wonderful spot for watching the sunrise, sea birds, and the fabulous Whatcom Chief ferry. The rocky shore is just steps away and there are many fine island adventures to be had nearby when you can pry yourself away from the view.

Out of all of the places that I rented this is the one where the pictures just do not do it justice! The place is amazing and so cool!! It’s much bigger than I thought and more breath taking than we can imagine! All amenities are included , wifi was awesome and such a private stay! If I could give a 10 star I would !! We only stayed a couple of days but you could stay much longer and be happy! The experience and pictures make it so worth it!!

Very clean, comfortable, centrally located accom. Nice view of East Sound. Close to town (walkable). Good for 2 people. Gets noisy when day gets busy (cars, trucks, aircraft) but, you are close to things. Good value for $$.

The property was accurately listed and presented. Our family had a great week and spent 90% of our time outdoors on the island, in the backyard, and along the water. I was really impressed with all the little things that are there and well stocked for your use during the week.....everything from bikes to tin foil. There were only 2 things that were off putting but they were minor and did not effect our week. 1. I, personally, would not hang family photos. It’s a beautiful family but if I am renting the place for a week, I at least want the illusion that it is mine :). Maybe take them off wall when you are not there. 2. The language in the packet about being quiet and behaving is condescending and off putting. Also raising possibility of being arrested if not following the rules is a bit extreme and overdone. I do not own a rental, however, and I assume something has happened in the past to necessitate that which is unfortunate. 3. I would have the trash guys give a heads up to the renters before he arrives. Walking into the kitchen and seeing some stranger in the entryway was surprising. All in all though...a great week and a spectacular location to be for our vacation. We would gladly rent here again
