Orcas Island, Aurora House #295

*** This home is people friendly, and not pet friendly. ***

Aurora House provides guests with the perfect blend of coziness and spaciousness - an indoor and outdoor retreat set on a waterfront bluff with sprawling views off Orcas Island’s coveted north shore. Sit by the fire in the sizeable living room, with vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, watching the excitement of weather, boats, birds, marine mammals, and outer-island escapes. Or spend your days down the relaxing trail right next door where a private beach accessible only to neighborhood residents awaits – this beach is known by the lucky few to be one of the most beautiful and private beaches on the island.

Back at the house, the waterfront hot tub, open kitchen and expansive deck ensure a relaxing getaway in every way possible. Inside, in addition to the first floor living room, this home provides two downstairs bedrooms, one with outside direct deck access and a comfortable queen size bed. The other room has a bunk bed arrangement with a full bed on the bottom and twin on top. These bedrooms share a downstairs bathroom that also serves as the guest bathroom.

A cozy and well-lit family room at the back of the house provides the perfect den for watching movies, soaking up the sun under the solarium-style windows, and getting away from it all with your favorite book. The laundry room is conveniently tucked away in a closet on the first floor near the kitchen.

Speaking of the kitchen, this easy-to-use space has all the amenities to entertain and cook for a large family gathering. Serve your family and friends at the kitchen bar, dining table, or the lounging deck with plentiful furniture that is just steps away from the cooking area.

Upstairs is the master bedroom loft with a queen size bed, master bathroom and more views of neighboring islands and even Canada. The warm, woody feeling throughout this house, coupled with the peace of the surrounding forest and sea, provide ultimate tranquility. Aurora House provides excellent privacy from neighbors and such a gracious environment to enjoy wonderful Orcas Island.
