This was a perfect getaway for our family. The house was spotlessly clean, very-well supplied, with great shared spaces and guest rooms. The location was excellent, near English Camp, Roche Harbor, and Lime Kiln Park.

Great place to stay for your vacation

Our family stayed here for our niece’s wedding along with all the festivities included. We took family pictures in front of the water, enjoyed our coffee on the deck and burgers at the picnic table. The house was clean, comfortable and well stocked. Owner was available and she left a notebook full of information about the Island.

August Getaway

This house on San Juan Island was a great choice for our family vacation. The house was large enough to comfortably accommodate 4 adults and 3 children, and the yard was big enough for the kids to run around outside. We enjoyed watching the nightly visits by the deer through the large picture windows. I enjoyed coffee on the back balcony/porch in the morning. We plan to come back again.

San Juan stay

We had a great stay at this location. Very nice house and a great location. Believe listing should be changed because first amenity listed is a hot tub and there is not one! All there is is a soaking tub in the master bath. Also would recommend better coordination with lawn care personnel. Two nights in a row, they came late (6-7pm) to do the lawn. Very noisy when we were trying to enjoy a quiet evening. They need to come during the day when most people are probably out enjoying the island.

Nice property for a family stay

We had a lovely time in this home - the location is great and the yard and access to water is even better. Given the price point, however, there were some things that could be improved. Examples include no sponge to wash pots/pans in the kitchen, no shampoo in the guest shower, no regular salt for cooking (only large crystals of sea salt), and an uncomfortably firm mattress in the master bedroom. All small things.

Good Experience with need for improvements

We came with a boat but had no buoy or dock to keep it. We would have liked to check the house if it met our needs. This was not possible. We would have discovered that the access to our boat would have been through dinghy and thus a problem. The overall stay was good

Our experience

The house is comfortable and in a beautiful location. We had a great time. We have some recommendations to improve the experience for guests. The alarm outside went off during the night and early morning, waking us up. Needs to be attended to, bathroom hand towels and wash rags soiled and worn thin, toilet in one bathroom broken. Although it was fixed the problem continued and toilet kept running which triggered the alarm. The refrigerator does not close tightly.Think these are minor improvements, but if attended to would enhance the experience of your guest so they would not have to be inconvenienced. Thank you

Good location, fun fire pit. Needs update! No key/code upon check-in.

The location of this property was nice and quiet. The yard was large and had a nice view of the bay with a fun fire pit. Our check in process was poor without a working code and no key left inside. The welcome binder was very disorganized and the wifi password was crossed out multiple times. The pillows were very flat and uncomfortable for our family/friends. And the multiple signs (everywhere) regarding the drought and water usage was a bit excessive. We can be mindful and responsible with just a simple statement in the listing regarding the issue of drought and water consumption. Overall the home and binder need an update!

Great Neighborhood - not great property

Overall left somewhat disappointed with this stay - we have visited the San Juan Islands with our family for several years, and this property was not on par with others that our family has stayed at. The neighborhood and location are nice, peaceful, and very pretty. There is plenty of wildlife (deer every morning/evening, and seals/otters in the inlet). However, the house was a disappointment. The outdoor andirondack chairs in the backyard are in really poor condition, and two of them are not even usable. The water well has clear signs of pretty significant salt intrusion - there was salt grime on all of the glasses and plateware, and the tap water is completely undrinkable, so you need to pack your own bottled water for the trip (we did not know this in advance, and ended up having to buy a bunch on the island). There were also a ton of yellow jackets while we were there; the owner seems to be remediating (there are traps set up next to the house), but our kids were uncomfortable playing outside during the peak of the day because of the amount of yellow jackets near the back deck. Lastly, after cleaning the property before we left, the owner charged an additional cleaning fee without any substantiation (said carpets needed additional cleaning, but they were left in the same condition as found when we arrived). Overall, enjoyed the island and the neighborhood, but would recommend picking a different property. This house was not worth the price.
