About this property

Spectacular West side views of Strait, Olympics, Victoria, south to Mt Rainier.

HARO HAIKU is a licensed San Juan County Vacation Rental (#05CU11) located on the West side of beautiful San Juan Island. NEW INTERNET!

The house is nestled just below the ridge line - with 180 degree views of the Olympic mountains, the Strait of Juan de Fuca beyond, and Haro Straits immediately below.

Inside Haro Haiku you'll find a contemporary blend of furnishings. The interior lets the outside in through widow placements and large sliding doors out to a full length deck.

The views are spectacular!!
Across the straits to the Olympic Mountains, Pt Townsend, Mt Rainier, and Whidbey Island it never fails to inspire and delight. Sunrises, sunsets, ship and boat traffic, the lights of Victoria, and the Olympic Peninsula, clear starry nights, cloud formations, combined with the sound of Orca whales and surf below. Truly awesome!!!

Serenity and repose on San Juan Island

Our guest's comments say a lot more about our unique home and property.

HIGH SEASON: If we have a 1 or 2 night opening between reservations we are happy to accept a reservation.

Beautiful view and property. Saw foxes, deer and eagles right from the deck. Close enough to Lime Kiln State Park to stop by every day where we saw foxes, eagles, whales, porpoises and a sea lion. The rental was perfect size for a couple, very clean, nicely decorated and in a quiet, secluded private neighborhood. Kitchen was well appointed so we could eat dinner every night with a spectacular view of the Haro Strait and Olympic mountains.

Great home base for an SJI getaway! Just up the hill from Lime Kiln and West Side Preserve, and an easy drive to all other sights. The views are incredible, so nice to wake up and have coffee or come home at sunset and watch the water. Easy to whip up meals in the well appointed kitchen. Bathroom is nice and clean. Bed is super comfy. Host is very communicative and check in/out directions were easy to follow. We will definitely be back!

This a nice tiny home overlooking the strait of Juan de fuca and the Haro strait. About 15 minutes from Friday Harbor and just a few minutes to Lime Kiln Park makes this a great location. Very quiet, a great place to get away and relax.
