Waterfront home on Guemes, the San Juan’s quietest island

Enjoy a 3-bedroom, 2-bath low bank waterfront home on the San Juan's quietest island - Guemes! A 5-minute ferry ride from the mainland, Guemes offers the serene, unhurried life of the San Juans without the hassle of hours-long ferry waits and crowded tourist towns. Adults and kids can bike in the street, enjoy a beach with a 180-degree view of the Puget Sound and the Cypress Island Nature preserve or cozy up by the fireplace. Plenty of room to spread out in a home that has all the amenities plus a full kitchen and laundry! The home is full stocked so all you need to bring are your clothes, groceries and your favorite outdoor toys.

We had a great stay in this lovely home. Three generations were on this vacation and everyone had plenty of options to keep busy or just relax. The view was outstanding, right on the water. The house was well stocked with all we needed. There were plenty of games that everyone enjoyed. Our host, Rob, was very good about answering any questions we had and gave good suggestions on travel, shopping, and ferry tips. I highly recommend this home!
The kids loved looking for interesting rocks on the beach.
Every night had a pretty sunset.
The kayakers in the family went out every day.

We had a wonderful weekend on Guemes Island and this home was the perfect place, beautiful view-- all the things one would need for a cozy weekend. Coffee and book while sitting by the water-- perfect. The two bedrooms are across the house from each other so it would be great for couples as well.

Perfect location on the beach

The property is beautiful with a location that can’t be beat. Many yard toys and board games to play, plenty of blankets to snuggle. Everything you need is here, with a well equipped kitchen. The house was more than large enough for our family of four, and our kids loved the bunks. Thank you, will be back!

We had a group of 7 adults that wanted a "fancy" home base for our annual kayak trip and this home was PERFECT! The beach was literally steps away and we were able to get out on the water whenever we wanted. (I actuallly spent most of my time just sitting on the back deck in the sun listening to the waves and watching the boats and wildlife). The views were spectacular. I took way too many photos of the blue herons and eagles fishing right in front of the house. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed and there was plenty of comfy seating on the deck and in the living room for everyone to have their own space. The dining table was easily extended for all our meals and to spread out the puzzles/games available in the living room. We all loved the long built in along the entire back wall for reading and napping. The beds all had good mattresses and the entire place was spotless. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We are already planning next year's trip.
