Wonderful

The original Xbox has a game jammed in it. is unusable and it was that way when we arrived.The house’s kitchen was well appointed, thanks.Up stairs it should be noted in the house description that the upstairs sleeping space has no beds just mattresses in the floor.Also the up stairs gets very hot.
We all had the most delightful time at this darling place.

Great quiet location, beautiful view, open floorpan. Hot tub under the stars very relaxing. Outdoor seating area comfortable. Large well-stocked kitchen.Overall clean spaces in the kitchen, bedrooms and bathroom. Somewhat skeptical seeing dust bunnies and debris (pieces of popped balloon?) under the media cabinet.It was not clear from the listing that access to the second bathroom is from outside only (same for the loft / extra sleeping area). Also, the bathroom in the main part of the house has a large opening at the upper most part of the entrance wall, which inhibited a sense of privacy.
Really loved this place, we would definitely stay again! You cannot beat the beautiful view and private house, hot tub was working just fine and we cooked some great meals while here.
The house, the property and the location were all wonderful. It comfortably fit our family of 4 couples. We loved the home's outdoor spaces, view of the bay, the hot tub and the quiet (except for the geese who also loved the yard), spacious property as well as the easy access to nearby trails. We would rent this house again.
The location and beautiful view of Westcott Bay is outstanding. The home has a very nice open layout. The kitchen is very well stocked for all kinds of cooking. All the bedrooms served my party of 4 very comfortably. The outdoor covered patio we enjoyed very much. It has a large seating area and outdoor kitchen w/TV. Both bathrooms are well equipped with large walk in showers.Please note: the entrance to the second bath is off of the covered patio on the ground floor. This came in very handy when we were enjoying the outdoor seating area. We saw deer, geese, and a fox while we visited. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
The area is wonderful. For small children it wasnt so great to stay. The loft is only accessible from the outside, same with the 2nd bathroom. No tubs juat showers which isn't the easiest with small kids. Felt cramped for 10 of us. Love love love the covered deck. The view is spectacular.

Perfect summer family vacation
This home and property are ideal for a family summer vacation. There is room for quiet, cozy summer reading, and plenty of adventure to be found on the shore just outside. We cooked many of our meals in the fully furnished gourmet kitchen, and also enjoyed fabulous restaurants at nearby Roche harbor. We loved using the kayaks on site, barbecued oysters and made s'mores on the beachside firepit. We zip-lined and whale watched, hiked, and visited the winery and distillery on San Juan island. It was wonderful to come back each day to this perfect home and it's breathtaking views. It really is a dream home in an ideal location. Everyone in our group, ranging ages 2 - 70, loved our stay here and we hope to return.

We are happy you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately Kayaks are no longer an added amenity to the estate.
The property surrounding this house is outstanding—perfect for family yard games (our 3 teenage boys had a blast), gorgeous views and relaxing on the covered porch. Kitchen was well stocked and spacious enough for all 8 members of our party to easily stand around the center island; plus there was plenty of indoor and outdoor eating space.Check-in was very easy with the lock box code, and check-out instructions were clear. Owner was quick to reply to questions pre-trip.Bathroom situation was a little strange with one bathroom accessed from the outside porch and the interior bathroom featuring a large cutout window near the high ceiling. But both bathrooms very clean with modern fixtures.The outdoor experience added a whole other element to our stay—definitely one of our favorite rental homes over the last 15 years.
This is an absolutely stunning property! Absolutely perfect for our large group. Deer wandering through yard. Gorgeous water views.
Our only issue was finding and accessing the property. We were sent the incorrect address and the incorrect door access code. We spent over an hour driving around trying to find the house based on google maps and comparison with photos. We did get a call later explaning that it was a glitch in their computer system, but it was still quite frustrating after a long day travelling.

Location is beautiful-House is very nice
I would give the location a 10 and the house an 8. We were given the address of the farm house 8493 Roche Harbor Rd not the venue. The property had some issues with cleanliness. There were flies in the windows and the brick patio had weeds , shells and Canadian thistle growing in it. The hot tub was half full and didn’t have any chlorine tablets in it also the barbecue had two empty gas tanks and one almost empty.One of the bathrooms and the upstairs bedroom s you have to enter from outside the main residence.The view of the ocean is stunning and the island is a great place to vacation.With just a few tweaks it would be perfect.Also the host was not responsive when we had questions or requests.I took some pictures if you would like substantiation of our concerns.

A dream weekend
We rented Chad's place for 3 days to celebrate our wedding with family and friends. It was a risk since we never saw the place in person, just the pictures. We lucked out in ways we did not imagine. Of course the weather which was incredibly beautiful did help. But the house is awesome and the location is fantastic. The house is located right on the beach surrounded by an orchard. It is totally quiet (apart from the odd plane taking off from the airport strip about a mile away). The house is beautifully designed (and I am a real stickler when it comes to design). It is equipped with everything you can ever want, top end appliances, great bathrooms, etc. You basically spend a life of luxury in this house and don't have to worry about anything other than cooking. We took out the kayaks, made a huge fire in the fire pit and our celebration could not have been any better. Our friends and family were all blown away by the place. I can highly recommend this house.

1.Arrived at house, all flower pots dead and trash around garbage can.
2.Deck and patio were filthy, bird poop and broken shells everywhere, on deck, patio and outdoor furniture.
3. Grill was filthy, grease trap over flowing. We had to clean it to grill that night, also barely any propane in tank.
4. Hot tub had not been serviced, no chemicals in floater and water level was low.
5. Outside TV is not connected, does not work.
6. Outside propane fire pit does not work.
7. Main bathroom hot water handle is broken off.
8. The sliding door, from the covered deck, to the house has no handle and can not lock. We found a stick to keep the door secure for security reasons while we where out or sleeping.

Expensive lovely property with sub standard amenities
The location, property, and water views that enticed us to rent this home were well represented in the advertisement, but the inadequacies we experienced are the reason for this poor review.
Without getting into the drama that the owners are having with all their neighbors, I will list the things that were very disappointing considering the price point for this rental.
There are no window coverings for the living area of the house. The house has a western exposure so from noon to sunset there is nowhere to go to get out of the blazing sun. The air conditioner is undersized for the home so the temperature in the house never got below 78 degrees during the day!! The furniture is worn out and needs to be replaced, and the beds are awful. The hinge on the refrigerator door was badly damaged and the seal didn't work, so the temperature hovered around 50 degrees or higher. We used coolers we had to keep things cold. The kitchen facet was almost falling off. The bare walls in the living area were littered with nails and picture hanging brackets where pictures and/or other art used to be. The two flimsy plastic home depot garbage cans in the front of the house were furnished with bungee cords to keep the critters out. This setup failed miserably so we were picking up garbage almost every day during our week long stay!! A final point, but one that speaks to the substandard amenities I am pointing out is the toilet paper that was furnished was the cheapest they could possible find and not as good as what is in most public bathrooms!!
The house is well sited and a short distance from Roche Harbor and the Westcott oyster farm. Very scenic and peaceful looking out over Westcott bay. It’s well set up for families with the separate bunkhouse unit walled off from the rest of the house. Some of the plumbing fixtures, and supplies were in need of repair and the main bathroom vaulted window is open to the living area so one hears others bathroom business but nothing significant. Note the beach is not suitable for swimming as it is a mudflat with shells and restricted access.
It was exactly what we expected and would recommend to others that want to explore the island and take in the beauty of nature.
Beautiful view of Wescott Bay. The house and property were clean on comfortable. Very well stocked kitchen. The fire pit was a plus. Short walk to Roche Harbor where we were keeping our boat. We will be back!

Nice, but not without issues
The location was excellent, but the managers were slow to answer questions before arrival, particularly about the hot tub, which turned out to be unavailable until the end of the week. There were also some COVID restrictions on the neighborhood which were not detailed ahead of time.
