Rachel has created the perfect getaway especially for couples in need of quiet relaxation. Our host was very attentive to our needs and beyond, such as loaning us folding chairs to attend the local summer outdoor concert. The grounds are spectacular with a sea view and the inside is practically full of more than everything needed and had lovely furnishings that make it comfortable and refreshing. We hope to return someday and recommend Etoile Bleu highly.

We absolutely loved this gem of a place. Rodney the massage therapist set the stage for relaxation for our girls’ getaway. The cottage is beautiful, the setting is serene, the view is gorgeous, and the island is so much fun. Rachel has created the perfect cozy oasis. We’ll be back.

What an incredible vacation! This little cottage was the perfect spot for our PNW vacation and it’s so clear Rachel has taken incredible care to appoint it well. I think this is the nicest VRBO we’ve ever stayed in! Coming back to defrost in the sauna after spending time exploring in rainy Seattle was the icing on the cake. The space was way bigger than I expected it to be. We didn’t get to cook this time but we could have with ease. Easy access to all that the island had to offer, just a short drive to Winslow and the ferry. We loved coming back to the quiet of the neighborhood each night and wished we could have stayed a lot longer!
