About this property
Newly Listed! Cozy Historic Cottage near town!
Newly Listed! This quiet and cozy historic cabin, close to town, is the perfect respite for relaxation. Enjoy bird watching while sitting next to Argyle Lagoon. (SCC)
Step out of the hustle and bustle, and step back in time to true island living. Sawmill Creek Cottage is comfortable and private, but still only one mile from downtown Friday Harbor on San Juan Island. The cottage has Wi-Fi and a Smart TV for those who are so inclined.
The cabin is nestled in its own private yard just feet away from a small bay, with a stream and pond as a boundary. The shared low bank beach on Jackson’s lagoon is a small saltwater bay where you can see blue herons, kingfishers, eagles, the occasional deer or fox, and watch the moon rise bigger than life over the bay at dusk. The tidal water fluctuates, and this property has a partial water view.
The queen bedroom is cozy and comfortable, and the full bathroom is just off of the bedroom. NOTE: if a guest is sleeping on the couch, they will have to walk through the bedroom to access the bathroom.
The secluded yard offers a patio table and barbeque for the summer months. Blackberries are ripe for the picking in early autumn. In the quiet winter months, create a second honeymoon or holiday turkey memories in the snug warm cottage.
Visit Sawmill Creek Cottage and find yourself “on island time”.
1 bed and 1 pullout sofa; 1 bathroom. Sleeps 2 comfortably but can accommodate 4.
**Fireplace seen in pictures is no longer there.
**You do have to walk through the bedroom to get to the bathroom
**Non Smoking
