The picutres used by VBRO were a little misleading and out of date. It was disappointing to discover the property was on a busy narrow road rather than on the shore as the picture suggested.The home was super clean and well appointed, shed in light from the many windows. The deck and fire pit provided great lounging area. Communication with the host was always considerate, positive and welcoming.

Fantastic

I highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Orcas Island. It was spotless, well appointed, convenient to our activities and exceeded our expectations. The owner went over and beyond to accommodate and make our stay enjoyable. Our evening meals were amazing on the porch overlooking the water.

Perfect Island Bungalow

The bungalow was perfect for 4 adults and 2 children. It was clean and matched the description. Ruth was the most responsive and helpful host I've had with any short term rental and I'd recommend staying here to anyone.

Exceeded expectations!

The bungalow is a magical property and was the perfect place for our island stay. The house is comfortable, tastefully designed, clean, and stocked with everything you may need. The big open room upstairs is perfect for kids. The outside grounds are great for running around or relaxing in the hammock or by the fire pit, all while taking in the beautiful view of the water. We would definitely come back and stay.

Beautiful spot!

The house was perfect for us! Very beautiful place and perfect location. West Sound is very peaceful. The beach is amazing and very close. Make your reservations at Kingfish for dinner right now! Fills up fast. We would have loved a few more Adirondack chairs, but otherwise great comfortable furnishings. The house was spotless when we arrived. Truly one of the nicest properties ever.

Fantastic experience!

We loved this house. We come to orcas yearly and this was one of our favorite experiences ever. All is as advertised. Well stocked. Enough room for two families with 4 beds for kids upstairs. Access to waterfront and beach through fun lagoon down a steep but walkable path or else by crossing the street in front of the house.

Perfect proximity to West Sound Marina

This was the perfect rental for our group of 6 adults and 2 kids. We chose it as it was within walking distance to the West Sound Marina were our boat was docked. Also is a short drive to the ferry terminal and main town. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out, kitchen was fully stocked with all pots/pans/utensils, and the upstairs room was fun for the kids. Those sleeping upstairs did say it was tough to sleep in as the windows had no blinds or curtains. Property was neat and tidy, tastefully decorated, and very comfortable. Listing pictures accurately reflected the property and it's offerings.

Perfect spot on Orcas Island

This was a great place to stay when we visited our adult son and his fiance who live in the Seattle area. The house was very clean and even better than the pictures. Wonderful spot on the deck for morning coffee with a view of the marina. The weather while we were there was spectacular with clear sunny skies every day. It was great to have 2 first floor bedrooms with lots more room on the second floor. The master bath with walk-in shower was beautiful. Eastsound is about a 10 minute drive and 20-30 minutes to more great hiking and views on Mt. Constitution and Moran state park. Lots of great restaurants nearby. Ruth was very responsive to any questions and had a lot of great suggestions for activities and dining.

Great place for groups

This is a beautiful home and property. There are just a few minor things that could be improved. Bathroom rugs are old/stained, we went to play several games and cards but there were missing pieces in most so those could be updated. And providing instructions on how to use the thermostat would have been really helpful! It was still a lovely place. Peaceful!

Beautiful home and property, well appointed kitchen and it was a plus that paper products and soaps are provided since you have to travel to get here and everything is at a premium on the island. My oldest son loved the hammock and anytime we were home and not visiting our friends he was out there. The only reason for 4 out of 5 starts was the master bedroom mattress is super hard and the dressers in both rooms had sticky drawers, were older, and the antique of the two, were afraid of damaging the mirror on top the drawers were so hard to pull out. Minor things and would highly recommend anyone to stay here. Very homey/nice place to stay and excellent view!

Great house for family

We had a wonderful stay at The Bungalow! The house was as described with many thoughtful touches for a great stay! Ruth gave us wonderful suggestions on activities to do on Orcas as well. The house was clean and well decorated. We loved the design and the space. Small touches like including soap, kitchen items, laundry detergent were appreciated. The notebook gave area info and clear instructions on the house. We also loved the location. We enjoyed watching boats in the bay and it was a quick drive to town and activities. The deck was a great place to relax. We were visited by deer and a peacock! Thanks for a great family getaway!
