About this property

Waterfront! Near Roche Harbor! Hot Tub! (SSH)

Waterfront home with a hot tub and views of Spieden Island. Sunrise and Sunset House. Your quiet home away from home, located just one mile northeast of Roche Harbor village, is waiting! The perfect spot to escape from the mainland, away from traffic noise and crowds and ease into 'island time'.

1 dog per reservation. The dog is not to be left unattended. If a dog is left unattended and a neighbor calls to complain, renter will be charged a $200 fee. House trained. Weight must be less than 60 lbs. No pets on furniture. The renter assumes responsibility for all extra cleaning needed such as emergency carpet cleaning, furniture replacement, and or emergency laundromat use for bulky items like comforters and pillows. The dog must be house trained and on-leash while outside.

This home is comfortably appointed throughout. The kitchen has been stocked with ample cookware! The entertainment has also undergone an upgrade and now offers DISH for PAC-12 network and local channels.

This home is perfect for a quiet and relaxing family getaway (not suitable for parties or large gatherings as it is located in a quiet neighborhood)

The house sleeps 8 comfortably, with two large living areas. There is a fully equipped kitchen with separate dining room, three bedrooms, and three bathrooms. The upstairs of the home offers a large bedroom, but is split to allow privacy between the 3 twin beds on one end and the Queen bed on the other. Television and internet via satellite. The entire back of the house faces Spieden Channel and there is a wraparound deck complete with a hot tub that can accommodate six.

All you need to bring is your clothes and your food - everything else is at the house: linens, cookware, utensils, towels, etc.

Bird watching will result in seeing bald eagles, Oregon juncos, American crows, gold finch, northern flickers and a variety of seagulls.

Deer drop by often on the property and there have been many sightings of otters, Dall's porpoises, harbor seals, and yes, sometimes the resident orcas pay us a visit.

Our home is only 12 miles from Friday Harbor, where the ferry lands. There are plenty of opportunities on San Juan Island to visit historic landmarks, go shopping, stroll around museums, attend a live theater performance, listen to music, hike grasslands or mountains, go fishing in fresh water or salt, walk on a beach, ride a horse, participate in a zip line, attend a farmers' market, learn about the island, explore thrift stores, lose yourself in a bookstore, chat with the friendly locals, sail into the sunset, eat like royalty, commune with nature, and sleep like a baby.

Great For A Family With Kids/Teens

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall we were very satisfied with the home. It was ridiculously large for our family of 5 (parents + 3 adult "kids" because we all wanted to hang out in the same living space and we literally never went into the HUGE family room on the back side of the house. The house furnishings and finishes were pretty outdated but the stunning view made up for that! And be aware that the fourth bedroom is actually a loft at the top of the back staircase and does not have a door. That worked out fine for us, especially since no one used the family room, but it might be disconcerting to some.

Perfection

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful girls get away on SJI and the house was absolutely perfect for our needs. It was clean, well appointed and incredible views. There was soooo much space, especially with the back room, although we never found ourselves there because we couldn’t pass up the view in the front. We were lucky with incredible weather and the only thing that would have been nice would be some nicer, more comfortable seating on the deck. But otherwise, just perfect.

Dreamy Getaway

A much needed break away from the hustle and bustle of life. We were able to see wildlife, enjoy coffee on the deck, and soak in the hot tub while peacefully enjoying each other’s company. The home is very private and quiet with all of the amenities needed. A quick trip from Dan Juan to Orcas was totally doable too. Thank you for a great memory.

Family getaway

We traveled to the Roach Harbor area and rented this house for a three day weekend ending on Presidents’ Day. It was the perfect place for our family of 6 adults and two children ages 9 and 12. The house had lots of room for us to spread out but the terrific views kept us in the kitchen and living room watching the eagles, deer, porpoise, and seals. The house was supplied with everything we needed for a great getaway!

Beautiful View!

Ww had a great stay here. The home was very spacious and comfortable for our all adult family of 7. We really enjoyed sitting on the deck and enjoying the view. Kitchen was well equipped too. The two main negatives we observed were firstly the amount of boat and plane traffic (right near to airport) that you get at this place. It wasn't a huge deal, but did take away from the peacefulness and remoteness you may have expected on the back deck. Secondly was just the sheer volume of rule postings and signs throughout the entire home. There were rules everywhere you looked. Even in the showers. We didn't even have a pet with us, but the pet rules were posted through the house at least 5 times and even in the bedrooms. They ranged from small one-rule signs to full page lists of rules. We get that they want to protect the home and want guests to treat everything as though it were their own home, but it was just over the top and made the home feel almost unwelcoming. It would be nice if they could simplify and/or condense the rules so they aren't so pervasive. Overall a wonderful stay, would just love to see the rule postings modified.

Beautiful view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This beautiful home has a gorgeous view of the water. It is close to Roche Harbor & about 25 minutes from Friday Harbor. You definitely need a car to get around the island. The home is not exactly as pictured & does need some updating (i.e. Painting & touch ups. Kitchen needs updating as well) Loved the layout. The beds were comfortable. I was disappointed that they did not provide any coffee (1 pkg would have been nice to have for our 1st morning stay, before going out) Also they did not provide any body wash or shampoo (most rentals do include this) Please note that water is limited & you are asked to limit showers to 1 daily & only fill the washer 1/4 full. The washer needs to be updated to a water saving model to help w/ water issue & accommodate larger loads; especially since you request that renters start a wash of towels prior to leaving (we could only wash a few at a time, so I did 2 loads). The living room & dining areas have the most beautiful view. The only thing missing was a gas or electric fireplace that was useable. Overall the home is very comfortable, peaceful & relaxing & we enjoyed our stay.

Perfect for Three Couples

We loved it! Large kitchen with lighted pantry was well appointed. Only issue with kitchen was lack large coffee mugs, so we bought 4 on sale at the drugstore. The house is gorgeous, but...the dusty fake plants have got to go. The downstairs bathroom was smelling funky... perhaps septic system related. The throws, books and DVDs were great. We used the fireplace 2 nights and loved it. The hot tube was great. Saw eagles every day (perched on a tree in the yard) and humpback whales one morning. The dining room table was perfect for jig saw puzzle work...with room for 6 to eat dinner. Beds were super...we all slept very well. New pillows would be welcomed. Large spacious home was near perfect. Thank you for letting us stay!

Peaceful Stay on San Juan

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at the Sunrise and Sunset House for a long weekend and wish we could have stayed longer. The house has a great layout for our group of five. The location near Roche Harbor was magnificent. We saw all kinds of wildlife from the deck. The home was clean upon arrival and the decor is warm and inviting. The mattresses on the main level beds are very firm. Great for those that prefer that, although I prefer a somewhat softer mattress myself. We ate most of our meals out since our visit was so quick, so we didn't use any of the kitchen appliances, other than the fridge and coffee maker. We would definitely stay here again.
