It is a beautiful property, and it was comfortable for two families with kids. House was clean and the amenities are good. The response from host was immediate and welcoming.

I’m so glad your families enjoyed your stay. I hope you can come again.
An awesome get away for our growing family. The listing is accurate. A beautiful house located in a serene bay. Very spacious with great gathering spaces to play games, eat or just hang out. The host is very responsive and accommodating. I highly recommend.
We have actually stayed at this property before and enjoyed it so booked again. The layout is really great for a group with plenty of eating and sitting spaces. This house was also well equipped which is really nice because sometimes properties can be sparse with cooking basics and equipment. Beds were super comfy and the primary bedroom has a big bathroom and lovely balcony. Hosts were super helpful and responsive. I would definitely recommend this house and location.

Thank you Aimee! We’re glad you found everything you needed. It’s important to us! Please come again.
Very clean, well appointed home with bay views and plenty of options for gatherings inside and outside the home. Quiet setting with beautiful gardens and plenty of wildlife on land and in the bay. Close to Roche Harbor and its amenities without being in Roche. Excellent communication with host. Thank you!

Thanks for the great review! We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay.
The property was easy to find and the setting is beautiful! If I was to suggest anything it would be to let renters know to make ferry reservations early, we looked two weeks prior and could not get a reservation. We still made it to the island but about 3 hours later than we would have liked. With that being said all of us would highly recommend this home! Thank you.
We arrived driving through a beautiful (felt like) secluded forest. This house was perfect for us three couples. Very comfortable with lots of room. Perfect location and perfect and beautiful views of Garrison Bay. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the back patio listening to the birds and the water ripples. VERY QUIET! If we had any questions the hosts provided an answer very quickly before our visit and during. The house is equipped with whatever you would need for your visit. If we came back to the island I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for making us feel welcome on your island!

About the host
Hosted by Jeannie
I moved to the island in the early 1970s! I'm still awed by the beauty of this place and love to share it with others.
Why they chose this property
Garrison Bay is one of the calmest bays in the San Juan Islands. The views across the bay are to British Camp, a National Park. It's close to Roche Harbor and Westcott Shellfish Farm. The property feels very private.
What makes this property unique
The views! The wildlife! The cooks kitchen!
