Outside you will find a new built-in barbecue, separate outside sitting area, a spacious hot tub (could be unavailable in late fall and/ or winter if we have a significant freeze.). Enjoy 240 feet of private beach while gathering around an evening fire by the fire pit surrounded by natural log benches.

The large master bedroom has a separate deck looking Northwest to the ferry terminal and Spencer’s Landing Marina.

Downstairs is a guest bedroom and a separate office area with a Murphy bed. (Wireless High Speed internet throughout).

Great beach house!

We loved our stay at the Lopez Beach House- we used it as home base for a week with extended family and it was perfect! We enjoyed finding shells on the beach, cooking s’mores in the fire pit, and sat in the sun room in cooler days. The bedrooms were comfy and we made good use of the kitchen for family meals and dined alfresco. Thankyou!!

We had a lovely first visit to the San Juan Islands and chose Lopez Island because of this beautiful home. The views were amazing. As many wrote, the kitchen was well-stocked, including Reynolds Wrap and plenty of herbs. Along with the views, which really are beautiful, this home offers several cozy places to curl up by the gas fireplace and read. We spent lots of time in the great room. Gayle is an excellent communicator. We came during the 'off-season' and there was still plenty to enjoy — hiking, farm visits, and art venues. We plan to return to Lopez and this beautiful home.

Incredible Family Stay

Absolutely loved our time on the spot, it was the perfect location for a 'chose your own adventure' stay with the family. We got to bike around the island, hang out by the beach, enjoy the hot tub, and play board games and cook inside. The sunrises were incredible, lots of the natural world putting on a show for us! It was a real dream, everything was comfortable with enough space for all of us, and we hope to stay again soon!

This is a great property!

This Lopez property is excellent. Off the back deck: beachfront with views to the east of the shipping channel towards Blakely across Swifts Bay. From the front: views west over Shoals Bay to the ferry dock and beautiful sunsets. The host was friendly, helpful and easy to work with. The house is well victualled for guests.

Perfect Getaway

The Bronson's place is a beautiful home situated on an incredibly scenic shoreline on Lopez Island. We very much enjoyed our stay here. The kitchen had absolutely everything we needed for cooking, and there are plenty of spaces to lounge about and read by a warm fireplace! We felt very spoiled spending the evenings around the fire pit and relaxing in the hot tub. John was very kind and communicative to make sure we had the best stay possible.
