San Juan Islands pet-friendly rentals

The house and property were stunning and so much better than we expected.

We love The Lookout. It was our fourth time staying here, and we hope to keep coming back!

My family had a great stay at West Beach resort. Cabin was great with all we need, right on the beach. It was amazing to spend evenings around fire place and to hear t waves. Very relaxing. It was nice to have convince store at resort to buy coffee or other basics. Everyone was very friendly. We loved it.

This is the second time with have stayed at this beautiful location. The wildlife we saw right from our bedroom windows was amazing!!! Eagles, great blue herons, a couple of loons, kingfishers, numerous water birds, deer, and a couple of foxes too! We brought our kayaks and had a lot of fun paddling right from this property. Highly recommend!!!

In our many decades of travel we have never stayed in a vacation rental home as wonderful as this! The hosts have thought of every detail to make you feel welcome. From large fluffy towels to cabinets labeled with contents everything is just right. The bay in front of the home is 100 yards wide and about 1 mile long…well protected from the weather. This makes it ideal for paddleboarding and kayaking. The beach provides a great place to pull water toys up and out of the water. 50 steps takes you up to the home with a well built wrap around deck. The main room is comfortable and the dining area easily seats 6. The kitchen is stocked with everything you could want and a step through an entry room takes you outside to the circular driveway. The bedrooms are spacious and the comforters thick and warm. There is plenty of hot water for the jetted tub or shower. The walls are covered with beautiful art and decorations enhance every counter. The hosts even set out a small container of dog treats…! If you are looking for a place that feels more like the home of an old friend, and less like a typical vacation rental then this is the one for you. We would rate this home 10 stars if that were possible.

Great experience. Our first time to San Juan Island and this was a great place to stay for our fam.

In this challenging time, we were so excited to get out of the house and spend some quiet time on Orcas Island. The Cottage-in-the-Barn did not disappoint! The cottage was clean and had all of the amenities we needed to keep our family of four (kids are aged 5 and 7) happy for four nights. The kids loved climbing up and down the ladder to their loft, the chickens (and plentiful eggs), the garden, Sammy the dog's visit, the board games, and riding their bikes on a dirt path right next to the cottage when we weren't out exploring the island. One key detail is that this cottage has blackout shades on almost every window! This is something we rarely see in rental properties. The shades (and comfy beds) made for nice long nights of sleep for all of us. Thank you!!
