Great views and location
Great view of the water and the Mt Baker. Got lucky enough to see 3 orca swim by. Also saw seals and herons. Patio space is nice. House was comfortable with a large living area and master suite. There are neighboring houses but we never saw anyone else. Definitely would stay again.

Gorgeous view, fabulous family time!
The photos do not do justice to both the absolutely beautiful view or the gorgeous house. Recent updates to the floors and the furnishing made it even more comfortable for our group. The kitchen was well appointed, the rooms spacious, the access to the water easy. Every sunrise was spectacular and different from the day before. One note, while the house was a zero threshold entry, the shower in the primary is about a foot off the ground. Beds were on the firm side, and the King size bed in the primary had two big body indentations and should be replaced. But even with that, we all slept well and had a fabulous time!

Our best vacation home yet! Beautiful memories!
This home was beautiful, peaceful, and very well appointed. The huge windows with views of the Salish sea, Mt. Baker, Vancouver, and mainland Washington were truly the best feature. Watching marine otters, bald eagles, sailboats, hummingbirds, whales, and mountain views from the patio every day was our favorite activity! Great, easy access to the private beach where our 10 year old son played (his favorite feature of the property!). The home was comfortable, clean, had a great layout for my parents who are in their 80s. We enjoyed cooking; even cooked a feast of local seafood from Buck Bay shellfish and had all needed cooking vessels! I’m already dreaming of our return to this gorgeous home! The location was perfect-5 minutes to Eastsound for the market and restaurants, minutes to Moran State Park & Obstruction Pass state park for tidal pools. Located in the best part of Orcas in my opinion. The neighborhood was peaceful with nice neighbors, permanent residents that shared information about Orcas with us. Bonus: pet friendly! Was wonderful that my parents could bring their dog. We had the most amazing week ever-3 generations of family sharing beautiful experiences of a lifetime together! We never turned the tv on- only soaked in what nature gifted us with and truly lived in each moment with gratitude. Thank you, wonderful hosts! We are grateful for your generosity in offering this special home. Your home was my favorite of all of my travel experiences.

Great place off the beaten path
We thoroughly enjoyed the solitude that this place provides, even though there are neighbors (everyone is so quiet and respectful, except for the house at the end of the drive that throws their yard waste off their deck). It provides comfortable gathering/seating to enjoy storms from within, and the fireplace works great! The beds were comfortable, the master was cavernouse and the closet provided a great space for our little one to be isolated for his sleep. The kitchen is functional, but lacks staples, so if it's more than salt or pepper, bring your own. The grounds are well kept, and while we didn't sit in the adirondack chairs on this stormy weekend, we know them to be comfortable. Really, everything went smoothly, which is exactly what you want. We did have to drive to get anywhere, but it really wasn't an inconvenience. The beach is quite rocky making for difficult walking, but it was easily accessed and really enjoyable to be so close, regardless. They were so kind to include binoculars, but they don't focus, so maybe there's some room for improvement there :) All in all, we would come back.

Can’t beat the view!
A wonderful home to sit and watch the clouds go by! We had a lovely stay at the beach house which was warm and cozy this cool week in March. The fully stocked kitchen had everything we needed for some home cooked meals. The beds were comfortable and the layout of the house was perfect for tucking in our two year old granddaughter at night. No stairs were an added bonus for the grandparents!

Christmas at Mt Baker Beach House
This is a beautiful property, and lived up to the listing. We gathered for Christmas with our two adult sons and their SOs. Pet friendly was wonderful; right on the beach was wonderful, plenty of space for 6 adults and two mid-size pups. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking & beverage making. The woodstove kept us cozy during the Christmas Day blizzard. And a family of Orcas showed up to entertain us during Christmas Day breakfast! Couldn't ask for more. Thanks!! Would definitely rent this property again.

Perfect family together time
This is the perfect family vacation home in the San Juan Islands. Our (grown) son and his dog joined me and my husband. We roamed the Island and relaxed. The home has everything you need for cooking, reading or just sitting outside looking at the awesome view.

Better than the photos!
We stayed at this beautiful home at the end of October this year. It was our first trip since the COVID situation started, so we were interested in how it would feel to be staying in someone else's property during this weird time. It was great though! Everything was clean, organized, and well thought out. We felt right at home! The photos are good, but don't do the place justice. The view is just spectacular and can be seen from all the main rooms and the master bedroom. Easy access to the beach made our morning walks so nice. It's a quiet neighborhood, and on a dead end street, which we loved. We also brought our dogs, and they had a blast! It was wonderful to be able to vacation with them in such a beautiful place. The fireplace was fun, and we enjoyed having the warmth and feeling it gave at night. Beds and furniture were all comfortable and well cared for. The kitchen is in a great spot, and you never feel away from what's going on in the house. We'd love to go back, and are thankful for the time we got to spend in this gem!

We had such a nice time at this property. Everything we needed was included in the kitchen and having access to a mooring ball allowed our friends to stop by with their sailboat. We look forward to using the property again in the future!

Beautiful View
This is a spectacular setting. We saw all sorts of waterfowl, seals, eagles, and dolphins. No whales. The view is incredible. We met the owner of the property and they made sure we were taken care of. The property manager was very responsive to our issues with the door lock. We hope to be back when the Coronavirus is gone and the weather is better.
