Amazing sunset views. The bed was comfortable with a unique view out the windows. The kitchen was well stocked and blankets provided for deck sitting. The hot tub was nice after a day of hiking. This home was clean, welcoming, and peaceful.

Hi Ryan,
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed those sunset views — they really are something special. It’s great to know the bed, kitchen setup, and cozy deck blankets all added to your stay. After a full day of hiking, that hot tub can feel like pure magic, so I’m glad it hit the spot.
Most of all, we’re happy the home felt clean, welcoming, and peaceful for you. That’s exactly the atmosphere we aim to create. We’d love to host you again whenever you’re ready for another relaxing getaway.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the property and the beautiful views. It means a lot to know you had such a great stay. We’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime!
Karen P.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The hot tub was a wonderful treat and the view was outstanding in every weather. The bed is very high (i.e., you climb a step stool two steps to get in and out). so that took some getting used to, but it was very comfortable and the height allowed for a beautiful view to sea. We hope to return.

Absolutely delighted to hear you had such a lovely stay!
Thank you for sharing these thoughtful details — it’s wonderful to know the hot tub and those ever‑changing views made your time memorable. That elevated bed definitely has a bit of personality of its own, and I’m glad it ended up adding to the charm with that sweeping sea view once you got used to it.
We’d be thrilled to welcome you back whenever you’re ready for another getaway.

Hot tub was great! Lovely home. Good view and comfortable accommodations. We loved it!Just as a heads up, the bathroom sink is draining a little slow, and the upstairs roku remote needs 2 new AAs. Everything else was in 100% perfect order.The place was super clean upon arrival and I appreciate the cleaning/deposit system you have set up! Thank you for having us!

Absolutely wonderful to hear you had such a great stay — that makes my day. I’m glad the hot tub, the view, and the home itself all hit the mark for you, and I really appreciate you noticing the cleanliness and the deposit system. The team works hard on that.

Thank you as well for the helpful heads‑up about the slow‑draining bathroom sink and the Roku remote. I’ll have maintenance take care of both right away so everything stays in top shape for the next guests.
You were a pleasure to host, and we’d be happy to welcome you back anytime. Karen P
The host was very welcoming, and the place is beautiful. My wife and I accidentally locked ourselves out of the house, and contacted the host for help. She got us back in immediately. Would stay again!

Thank you so much for staying with us! I’m glad you enjoyed the home, and I’m happy we could get you back inside quickly. You were wonderful guests, and we’d be delighted to host you again anytime. Karen P
Quiet, serene, phenomenal view, well-stocked kitchen appliances and utensils that made cooking dinner easy, warm and well furnished, with a hot tub: what more can you ask? I hope to stay here again someday!
Warm, welcoming, and relaxing! The host was kind and communicative, and the property was beautiful and welcoming. Beautiful deck with a view, hot tub, and cozy interior with an ocean view, fire place, and multiple sleeping options. The house was comfortably furnished with a full functional kitchen, and we so appreciated that they allowed dogs, as well. Check-in was painless and the expectations for cleaning at check-out were clear and helpful. We had a lovely and relaxing weekend and definitely hope to stay again.
Such a wonderful place to stay! Everything that we needed (or could possibly want) was at the property. We had a wonderful stay and will definitely be coming back in the future.

Hi Shawna,
That’s so lovely to hear! Thank you for sharing such kind words. We’re thrilled you had everything you needed and enjoyed your stay—it means a lot to us. Knowing you plan to return is the best compliment we could receive, and we can’t wait to welcome you back again!

Great accommodations! Great views from many rooms; wrap around deck with easy to access hot tub. Comfortable beds & nice bathroom. Clean, well stocked kitchen.
Clean, well stocked, beautiful view, great hot tub, and wood stove is wonderful with plenty of wood. Bed upstairs difficult to get in and out of and kind of dangerous for short or older people.

Hi Kristin,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the cleanliness, the view, and the amenities like the hot tub and wood stove. I really appreciate you pointing out the challenge with the upstairs bed as well. Your safety and comfort matter, and this is helpful insight. I’ll be reviewing options to make that space easier and safer to use for all guests.
Thanks again for staying with us and for helping us improve.
Karen P.
Everything was perfect! Such a beautiful house by the water. The kitchen was well stocked for me and my partner to cook meals for the weekend. Amazing views of the sound, islands, and birds while we sipped our morning coffee. The hottub was so nice and relaxing in the evening. Couldn’t have asked for a better weekend getaway on beautiful San Juan Island

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful feedback. It truly means a lot to us. We’re thrilled to hear that the home, the views, and all the little details—from the kitchen setup to the hot tub—helped make your getaway special. San Juan Island has a way of slowing life down in the best possible way, and it sounds like you experienced exactly that.
You were a pleasure to host, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime for another peaceful escape by the water. Karen P.
We had so much fun, the view was amazing, we all loved it my wife sure wants to come back, everything was so clean, and thank you Karen for letting us have our dog with us, we don’t go anywhere without him, thank you once again!

This wasca fantastic stay on San Juan Island. The cabin was clean and we had no issues. Host available and responded quickly for any questions. The view from balcony was amazing, we saw whales and seals right from the balcony. We had an awesome time here.

The place is nice. It’s tucked away in a good part of the island if you want to get away from the busy areas. It was just two of us so there was plenty of room. Everything was clean and well stocked
We really enjoyed our stay here. The kitchen was very well stocked, which made it easy to cook meals without needing to bring much along. The space was perfect for a couple—cozy but comfortable. The view is absolutely fantastic, and our favorite part of the trip was spending time out on the deck just relaxing and taking it all in. Saw Orcas from the deck. Would definitely recommend for a peaceful getaway.
