*** This home is people friendly, and not pet friendly. ***
Tucked into over two acres of waterfront property, The Peapod Cottages are the quintessential Orcas Island retreat. Situated half a mile from Obstruction Pass State Park, this property boasts spectacular views of Buoy Bay and Mt. Baker. Take the staircase down to the beach to find the perfect skipping stones, watch the eagles swoop by from the front yard, and wake up to one of the most beautiful sunrise views on Orcas. With two separate craftsman living spaces and a small orchard, The Peapod Cottages offer ample accommodations for extended families or groups of friends looking for the perfect combination of comfort and community.
Peapod I is a 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath contemporary farmhouse with an open floor plan. Peapod I serves at the heart of the estate, providing the only full kitchen on the property. With two ovens and a large pantry, the well-appointed, updated kitchen lends itself easily to preparing and enjoying large meals. The first floor living space is filled with light and accented with modern touches and a wood stove. Open the sliding glass doors and watch the wildlife from the porch or relax in the fenced yard. On the second floor, each of the two bedrooms has its own balcony and view of the bay. The two spacious bathrooms both have deep, oversized bathtubs and separate showers. The cozy second floor sitting room is the perfect place to curl up with a novel and watch the clouds roll by without the distraction of a television.
A few steps from the main house is Peapod II. This 700 square foot one-bedroom cottage has water views from both the living room and the comfortable queen sized bedroom. The comfortable sitting area has a large screen TV with Roku, a dining table, and a delightful alcove overlooking the water. The back door leads to a small covered porch and just beyond are the stairs to the beach. The bathroom is complete with shower and tub.

A gorgeous spot - the beach access was great, the house was spacious, comfortable, and well-appointed. The only hiccup for us was difficulty with the access when we checked in, and a couple of small things (door, oven hood) broken inside the house. Still, a memorably beautiful spot, with breathtaking sunrises, and really nice place to stay. I'd be happy to go back.
