About this property

A Charming And Artistic Cottage Set In a Beautiful Garden

Come enjoy a relaxing retreat set in a beautiful garden conveniently located halfway between Friday Harbor and Roche Harbor.
Foxglove cottage is a charming cottage surrounded by a lovely garden situated on 20 acres of majestic fir and cedar forest.There is a small swimming pond with a dock and my artists studio ..The house is completely remodeled and almost brand new. There are slate floors in the kitchen, dining room and entry way and bamboo floors thru out the rest of the house. The original structure was built with beach logs and field stones and lots of creativity . This is truly a craftsman's creation.
The master bedroom is large and spacious . The guest bedroom feels like a tree house. The upstairs bathroom has slate floors, a stone sink , tile shower and small Jacuzzi tub. The master bedroom has a queen size bed and flat screen HDTV. The guest bedroom also has a queen size bed. Both bedrooms have lots of windows viewing the surrounding garden.
The living room has a double door onto a small patio overlooking the pond. There is a large flat screen T.V. and DVD player. The house has access to Dish television.
The kitchen is completely equipped for you to do your own meals . There is a large window seat for lounging . Right outside the kitchen is a patio with table and chairs for outside dining.
The owners live on the property and will be available for any questions you may have. Interaction can be as much or as little as you like. Fresh fruit and veggies will often be available from the garden. Just ask me what might be ripe for the picking. The property is deer fenced so we ask our guests to please remember to close the gates. It is truly amazing how much one deer can eat in an evening stroll thru the garden.
We have a young cream retriever who may wander down for a visit. We try to keep her away from the guests but she is very friendly and loves people above all things. She tends to bark a bit on your arrival which is a greeting of hooray finally someone has come to see me. We are working on this. If you have an issue with dogs please let me know.
There are many wonderful and exciting places to visit on San Juan Island. There are numerous beaches and parks close by. You can hike , bike, swim, whale watch, kayak, or just relax. It is truly a vacationers paradise.

Really a beautiful garden setting in which the commitment and love of the host family to the land really permeates. The host was very quietly available and generous. And the property is very close to everything. We had a wonderful stay.

This was like staying in a fairy house. It was so unique and magical. My husband and I were there with our two adult daughters, and we all enjoyed the house -- and grounds -- so much. Our host, Becky, was available and lovely to talk with (great history), but she was also very respectful of our privacy. The grounds are special and beautiful, and unique from most other vacation homes.The location is basically mid-island, so it's easy to get anywhere on the island quickly. Friday Harbor, Roche Harbor, English Camp, Lime Kiln State Park, The Mausoleum are all within a few minutes of the house. You do need a car, so be aware of that.One more thing to be aware of: The two bedrooms are upstairs (and wonderful!), but only one of the bathrooms is up there. The other one is downstairs, and the stairs are a little tricky. So just be aware of it, if it is of concern to you. We managed just fine.And the best part of the stay? Becky's dog, Lulu! So sweet and fun. You can choose to interact with her or not, but if you like dogs, don't miss out.We'll definitely stay here again.

Probably one of the most unique and lovely rentals we've ever stayed in. The house was just stunning but also cozy with lots of nice spaces to be together inside and out. The grounds are amazing including gardens and an orchard. The owner put a bunch of freshly picked apples in our fridge, and they were delicious. Wish we could have stayed longer!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 5 night stay at Foxglove Cottage. Becky was such a welcoming host and the roomy, comfortable cottage is decorated beautifully with her paintings. The setting is idyllic with a lovely garden and pond surrounded by tall fir and cedar trees, but, at the same time, easily accessible to town and Roche Harbor. We hope to return soon and highly recommend this vacation rental.

Cozy, green, comfortable. The home was close enough to town but very private. The gardens are amazing. Our host was present but not intrusive. The kitchen had all the things we needed, and the Propane fireplace was extremely useful on the chilly mornings in the sunken living room which had a sweet view of the pond and was a great way to welcome in the day.
