About this property

Water View, Impeccable Studio Cottage overlooking East Sound, Walk to Town, Close to Everything!

With beautiful views of the Salish Sea, our charming cottage is perfect for a solo retreat or a couple's getaway. Just a short walk to restaurants, shops, and a waterfront park, you can enjoy the convenience of town while waking each morning to sunrises from the deck, or the comfy queen-size bed in this perfectly designed studio.
Our studio cottage features:
☀️ All-new appliances
☀️ Quartz countertops
☀️ Custom-tiled bathroom
☀️ Luxury linens and amenities

Your island escape is ready for you ✨

Though we enjoy meeting our guests in person, we offer a contactless checkin with a keypad code for the front door. Please reach out with any questions or concerns. We are available each day during normal business hours of 8 am- 6 pm, and 24/7 for emergencies.

Perched on a hillside overlooking Eastsound, our charming cottage offers the perfect balance of privacy and convenience.

🌊 Scenic Setting – Enjoy picturesque water views, tall trees, and a friendly neighborhood.
🏡 Best of Both Worlds – An “in-town” feel with a peaceful, rural atmosphere.
🚗 Convenient Location – The main road below provides easy access to town, with some traffic noise during peak seasons.

A charming island escape, just minutes from shops, dining, and outdoor adventures!

Distance from popular spots:
📍Orcas Island Ferry Terminal - 8.6 miles or 16-min drive
📍Eastsound - 0.6 miles or 3-min drive
📍Moran State Park - 4.7 miles or 9-min drive
📍Island Market - 0.6 miles or 3-min drive
📍Turtleback Preserve - 3.2 miles or 7-min drive

We highly recommend bringing your own vehicle or renting a car once you arrive via ferry. While Orcas Island is walkable in some areas, many of the island’s most scenic spots—like Moran State Park, Cascade Lake, and Turtleback Mountain—are best reached by car.

Car Rental Options:

📍 Located near the ferry landing

📍 Eastsound area
M&W Car Rental
📍 Eastsound area (based on San Juan Island but offer cars on Orcas Island)

Additional Tip: Be sure to book your rental in advance, especially during peak travel seasons, as availability can be limited on the island.

We say our cottage is impeccable because in only 300 sq ft you have all you need in a spacious and elegant interior. Designed and renovated by an amazing local boat builder, every space was consciously created.

Our cottage kitchen is the shining example of how to blend efficiency and functionality. Featuring a full-sized electric Avanti stovetop and oven with a microwave mounted above, and a large stainless steel, modern sink, you can effortlessly make any meal. We've hosted guests for Thanksgiving that boasted how they did a full course meal with ease!
You’ll find plenty of kitchen gadgets, including a blender, hand mixer, cookware, and bakeware to create your favorite meals. Enjoy our coffee bar stocked with Pete's coffee, teas, stevia, sugar, and creamer, along with both a drip coffeemaker and French press, and a coffee grinder. We even have spices and oil in the cabinets! Plus, there’s a full-sized refrigerator with a freezer, and a stackable Blomberg washer and dryer—just note that there’s no dishwasher, so hand washing is required.

In the living room, relax on the comfy loveseat or swivel chair while enjoying views through the French doors to the deck and water beyond. Curl up with a throw blanket to stream your favorite movies on the Smart TV or play some board games. The sofa also has a pull-out twin bed with linens for an extra guest.

The queen bed is tucked into its own private nook, featuring a sturdy Captain's bed frame for extra storage and a small closet for hanging clothes. We even provide a small iron and board!

The custom-tiled bathroom offers a large shower and vanity with all the amenities you need, plus plenty of towels.

Outside, enjoy dining alfresco at the bistro table and chairs, and fire up the gas BBQ—we provide a full tank and tools, so just bring your secret sauce recipe! 🍔

With fast, reliable WiFi speeds up to 50 Mbps, this is a fantastic 'work-cation' cottage for digital nomads!

Come dream with us at Wild Currant Cottage! 🌿✨
