Wonderful stay at Echo Bay Retreat!

We had a fantastic time staying at Echo Bay Retreat on Orcas Island. The house was comfy and well equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. It’s located in a wonderfully quiet neighborhood, just steps from a private beach, with beautiful views of the water. The fenced yard was a lovely bonus, perfect for enjoying the outdoors in privacy. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful escape on Orcas Island. We’d happily stay here again!

We enjoyed the view, beach access, and the tennis/pickleball court. Kitchen was very well stocked. The place could use some more cleaning and one of the mattresses sinks in/needs replacement.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful view, beach access, pickleball court, and well-stocked kitchen. We take cleanliness very seriously, so we were disappointed to see this concern. We reached out twice following your stay hoping to learn specifically what areas you felt needed additional attention, but unfortunately didn’t receive a response. Without those details it’s difficult for us to investigate or address a concern with our cleaning team, but we will certainly continue to maintain the high standards we expect for the home. We also appreciate the feedback regarding the mattress and will make sure it is evaluated for comfort and condition. We’re glad you enjoyed so many of the amenities Echo Bay Retreat has to offer and appreciate you choosing to stay with us.

This pristine property is in an excellent location on the island and offers comfortable amenities for a relaxing vacation. The water view is wonderful, the deck is awesome, and the private beach offers peaceful exploration time. We loved exploring the tidepools! Kristen was always responsive and lovely to work with. There was an issue with the hottub, and she had the tech come out in what seemed like 5 minutes! I’m very particular about VRBOs, and this property is top notch!

We loved our stay! The house was clean and comfortable with a well-equipped kitchen, products in bathroom, comfortable beds. The views are incredible - sitting on the deck or in the hot tub you have beautiful views over the ocean. And the neighborhood is quiet and pretty, and the private beach perfect for watching the sunset or, as we did also, paddle boarding from what feels like almost home. Kristen was super communicative on any questions we had. 10/10 stay and will return.

Ideal home for two couples with a dog. Private, but open setting with a fenced yard. We loved hanging out on the deck looking at the view, while listening to a variety of birds. Excellent, landscaping! The outside of the house was beautiful. The inside was clean and had everything we needed. The only negative is that the third bedroom is quite small. It’s okay for one adult, but too small if you have three adult couples. It’s a very nice rental for the right number of guests.

Exceptional property. Everything you could need in the kitchen, laundry, living areas and bedrooms. Wonderful views from the expansive deck and a large fenced yard great for kids or dogs. The home is located in a very quiet neighborhood with a nearby rocky beach, but still just a few minutes to town. Communication with the host was always prompt and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.
