Family & Pets Stay at the Loring House

We traveled to Friday Harbor with our Son, daughter-in-law and our dogs. The house could have accommodated many more that 4 people and their dogs. It was clean and comfortable and very accessible to town. Wish we could have stayed longer . . . next time for sure!!

Good “old” property which made it fun and unique. Beds could use an upgrade. Cleaning service was lacking, cobwebs, some dishes in cupboard were dirty, bathroom mirrors full of toothpaste

Love it...but

The location is great but the lack of cleanliness was noticable. For the price I was expecting more. Wood floor dusty, socks were fifthly after an evening of cards the first night. Two used towels hanging on the back of the bathroom door. Found a large metal water bottle on back porch. Glass table top in nook wasn't washed (lots of cup rings) Wooden Stair case needed washing, duck tape holding window together in Living room was an eye sore, the area around door knobs weren't clean, couple of coffee mugs found dirty in cabinet, towels upstairs smelt musty, (we appreciate when owners provide them, but not if I have to wash them first) toaster released crumbs constantly. The bedroom off kitchen has no air ventalation it got so stuffy and hot. It was nice to have puzzles but they were all miixed up together and when we finally separated them and put them together they all had missing pieces. The closet.provided in one room was from the 30's and left your clothes smelling old. We ended up hanging them from a shelf in the room. The ceiling fan light in the bathroom was so dirty. Cobwebs are always a sign that the cleaning crew is sleeping while working. Beds were comfortable except the one in the kitchenette room. The backyard had knee high weeds. So we just stayed on the porch. One bulb working in main bathroom but if you want to be in walking distance of everything in Friday Harbor then this is a great place.

Girls trip to Friday Harbor

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely old house. There were only four of us and we each had our own room. This house would be great for a family reunion, it is huge! Very close to town, food, coffee etc. Will definitely return.
