Best getaway stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our time at Garrison Bay. It was more than we expected as far as coziness and comfort. Close enough to town but hidden so you feel like your are truly escaping. We saw so much wildlife from the cabin too. Would highly recommend and will definitely book here again.

Cozy Cabin for Two!

My wife and I greatly enjoyed our stay at this cute little hideaway on San Juan Island. It was such a treat with great views, a very functional kitchen, and a great use of such a small space. The only thing I would change is I wish the windowed doors had curtains over them for privacy (especially the back door). It is also a little far from Friday Harbor, but that just made for some fun driving around the island every day.

A Pearl on the Oyster Bed Shores of Garrison Bay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: From the minute I crowned the hill and saw the beautiful cottage on the shore, I knew I was in for a lovely. long weekend. With darling shingled exterior and only 20 feet from the shore - the place was a quintessential island getaway. Inside I found a nice galley kitchen which provided everything I needed. I did buy some sea salt in a grinder which I hope is still there for others to use. The kitchen overlooks the living area with comfy sofa. good sized screen to cast your various streaming apps to, and a lovely gas fireplace. (Know that you need to get down on your hands and knees to toggle the switch up to turn the fireplace on... a bit cumbersome.) Sitting on the sofa, you look out over beautiful Garrison Bay and feel as though you are on a float over the water. Sooooo wonderful. The bedroom had open shelving an a few hooks to hang things on. As you're in the islands, no need to bring clothes that require hangers! Outside there are two paver patios, the one on the water side sporting two Adirondack chairs and cute portable fire pit. (BYOW... bring your own wood.) Wishing it had been a bit better weather so I could have enjoyed the patio - but that just means I'll need to come back again during warmer months. Side note - I met the owner on one of my trips back from town. He was delightful with such an interesting story of how he and his wife wound up with the property. (They live next door to the cottage.) If you are searching for a tranquil, waterfront place in the islands, search no further! You'll be glad you booked the Garrison Bay Hideaway.

Amazing Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We wanted to get away for a quiet weekend and we could not have been happier with our stay here. The location is unmatched. There were some TV/Internet issues; however, it was a blessing to be able to unplug and unwind. When we reached out to the property management company, they were professional and took care of any issues immediately. The owner of the property even stopped by to ensure everything was working well. He was a delight and getting to connect with him was a bonus.We will definitely come back again. Trip of a lifetime. Thank you!
