About the host
Hosted by Kristen
Hello,
My name is Kristen. I've been managing this home since the beginning of 2024 and have recently decided to launch my own private business. Whether you've rented this home previously or it's your first time, I'm delighted to host you.
Originally from Canada, I've lived in Nebraska and near Seattle before planting my roots and starting a family on Orcas Island. I absolutely adore it here and consider myself fortunate to raise my daughter in such a beautiful place. My hobbies include spending time at the beach, enjoying the lake, and engaging in cooking and canning.
Should you have any questions or need to tailor your stay to your preferences, I'm always here to assist. How may I be of service?

Why they chose this property
Established in 1888, Rosario offers a rich history within its walls and allows you to appreciate the beauty shaped by generations. A short walk to the marina enables you to fly in from Lake Union, Seattle, or engage in whale watching or kayaking without the need for a long trek. The views and natural surroundings are a must-experience. By night, the barking of sea lions and the singing of toads fill the air, while during the day, you're likely to feed a deer (they have a fondness for apples!). The water views are breathtaking, and in the spring, rainbows following a gentle rain may make you a believer in leprechauns.
For those seeking relaxation, unwind in the private hot tub overlooking the water or grab a book and enjoy it by the fireplace and rest on the window seat. If you up for adventure close to home, gather your family or friends for some yard games on the mansion's well-kept lawn after grabbing a bite from the Harbor Bar & Grill or taking a dip in the pool.
