About this property
Peaceful waterfront cottage, close to town!
Beautiful, brand new two person studio cottage, with a full kitchen, inspiring picture window views of Griffin bay and beyond. Comfortable queen bed. Sitting area has gorgeous water view. The lagoon at the bottom of our yard has marvelous bird activity. This property is on the water; you can step onto the shore. Private garden, entrance and parking. This location is close to town, yet peaceful and surrounded by nature. The lagoon provides wonderful bird watching opportunities and the sunny south facing site is truly enjoyable.

We had a family wedding on San Juan Island and this cottage was the perfect spot for our stay. Close driving distance from Friday Harbor and the ferry landing, and walking distance to several beach spots. I appreciated the craftsmanship and charm of the cottage and it came equipped with everything we needed for our extended weekend get-away.
What a beautiful property. We loved staying here and will absolutely return. Had everything we needed and then some. Comfortable bed and a short 15 min. walk to the waterfront.
Exceptional location with incredible views. Appreciate the quiet, comfortable setting with everything one might need. Jim was a superb communicator with helpful recommendations.
This was the best sanctuary I could have asked for while staying on the island and the perfect refuge at the end of a day of exploring. I've finally found my place to stay on San Juan for all future adventures. James was the perfect host and so friendly.
The Shaqteau was a gem! All the amenities I needed for my get-away, so close to town yet quiet and peaceful. I slept wonderfully and got to watch the sunrise from a perfect picture window. Even made it down to the private shore! I look forward to visiting again!

About the host
Hosted by Jim and Peg LeBlanc
Jim and Peg LeBlanc are fun loving artists and thoroughly enjoy living in the San Juan islands. We love to garden, kayak and bird watch. We have collaborated on making this property a simple and beautiful place to spend time.
Why they chose this property
For many years when we were living elsewhere (our former fast-paced, urban, busy , fun, and noisy ) the San Juan Islands were a beacon for us, shaping our goals for a new chapter of living a little slower, a little simpler, with more natural beauty. We have tried to keep to that vision in making our little cottage a place where you might experience what we love about his part of the world.
What makes this property unique
We really think this is the best of both worlds for out of town visitors. You are surrounded by the beauty of this unique environment, the water of Griffin Bay, the clean air that blows over these islands, the quiet of being distance from major traffic ways... and yet we are walking distance to the town's restaurants, theaters, museums, the harbor and music venues. We love living where we do on this fantastic island. Beautiful and convenient!
