About this property

Waterfront View Westside Home! (WVH)

Amazing Waterfront Home! Westside of San Juan Island!! Whale View Haven!

This remodeled home that sleeps 6, located on the Westside of San Juan Island, is the perfect getaway for groups or couples wanting to relax and enjoy what the island has to offer.

Enjoy watching wildlife off the water-view deck as the local birds enjoy the bird feeders, and maybe spot a harbor seal playing in the water below. The renovated gourmet kitchen boasts 2 ovens, stone counter tops, stainless steel appliances and fully stocked cookware. The kitchen is situated to enjoy the expansive views while preparing your meals. You may catch a glimpse of a passing Orca Whale while pouring your morning coffee!

The primary bedroom located on the main floor has a King size bed and a grand view of the water. The picture-window in the primary bedroom can be opened up to enjoy a cool breeze as you wake up. The main floor queen bedroom also has a view of the water. Between the two main-floor bedrooms in the hallway you will find the full bathroom.

The downstairs extra sleeping room feels like a separate wing of the home with a sitting area, an attached bathroom, and a Queen-Sized bed overlooking the water.

A perfect getaway for a few couples or small family with older children. Families with small children should use caution with this high bank waterfront.

Wish We Could Stay Longer

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: The rental was exactly as the pictures show. The views were stunning and the house was clean. Missed the mailbox number the first time so got a tiny bit turned around and these roads are steep and narrow, lol. Loved the telescope thing and the children's books. We had so much to do around the island we didn't get to spend nearly enough time in the home but we enjoyed every bit we did.

Absolute perfection

This property is gorgeous inside and out. The floorplan allows lots of space for the family to spread out, while still feeling cozy. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need and the view making cooking meals a dream. The hosts thought of every detail to make our stay an absolute dream. From toiletries to more than ample towels, staying here truly felt like being home. Even the bird feeders are well appointed! Access to the water's edge would be a challenge for little ones, but for our grown family, it provided hours of tide pool exploring. Island cellular service is spotty, but the internet at the house allowed a fast connection. The property is a very short drive to Roche and Friday Harbors, but is tucked away and feels very private and secluded. We spent hours researching to find the perfect house for our daughter's graduation celebration vacation, and this was definitely the one.

Beautiful views but dark inside

The view was outstanding, the kitchen was modern and unusually well-appointed, and the grill is in great condition. Location on the west side is perfect (20 minutes to Friday Harbor, 15 minutes to Roche Harbor, 6 minutes to where we met our kayak guide from Crystal Seas Kayaking) and we saw orcas hunting a seal while we were having our morning coffee, which was amazing! Each room has a pretty water view. And it was very clean. However, the place is overall much darker than it appears in the photos, even on a bright sunny day, because of too many overgrown trees around it and because of the dark wood paneling. The second bathroom is rough. The mattresses are old, soft, and saggy. I think the couches and lounge chairs are newer and are good! Keep working on refreshing this place -- it has incredible potential!

Million Dollar Views!!

Girls trip to San Juan Island was perfect with the lovely whale viewing house on the west side of the island. The relaxing views of the water, whales, sunsets, birds and ships going by kept us entertained for hours. The house is in a quiet neighborhood, well laid out and had everything we needed for our four day stay. I would highly recommend this property!

Absolutely Fantastic!

Super clean and comfortable property, amazing view, right up the Strait from Lime Kiln State Park. We saw two pods of orcas, J and L, a Minke whale, sea otters, porpoises, and lots of jumping salmon. We truly hope we get the opportunity to visit again next summer.

Whales!

Amazing sums up the trip. We saw orcas on two different days, once just a few hundred feet off shore. Plus otters, seals and birds all from the deck. Watching the cargo and cruise ships was also fun. Our boys loved the game closet. The house was well maintained and stocked--we've stayed in several VRBO homes and this one was great!

Excellent September Vacation

The house is located with an excellent view of Haro Strait and the deck is great for an evening meal. We've vacationed several times on San Juan, Orcas, and Lopez, and think this was one of the best places we've stayed. My only caution might be renting this house during warmer months. Almost none of the windows open, so towards the end of the day the west facing living room/bedrooms can get pretty warm.
