About this property
Beach and Dock Access! (NBWR)
Cozy Waterfront Cabins with Dock Access - Pet Friendly.
Neil Bay Waterfront Retreat is a peaceful sanctuary - perfect for couples' getaways and small family vacations. The retreat features two cozy cabins nestled amidst lush forest greenery and has a private beach, large decks, waterfront views, outdoor grill, wildlife viewing, fully equipped and stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and high-speed internet. The retreat is pet friendly.
Neil Bay Waterfront Retreat is secluded without being isolated: a 20-minute drive gets you to the Friday Harbor ferry terminal, and a 10-minute walk gets you to Roche Harbor Resort’s dining, shops, and sculpture garden.
Main Cabin Amenities:
- Cozy studio layout with a reading loft accessible via a ship’s ladder.
- Fully equipped kitchen with granite countertops, custom-made fir cabinetry, and modern appliances.
- Queen size bed.
- Gas fireplace.
- Ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower and a stacked washer-dryer.
- Expansive wrap-around decks with a south-facing main area, perfect for enjoying views of Neil Bay.
Second Cabin Features:
- Private bedroom with a queen-size bed and an ensuite bathroom.
- South-facing deck overlooking the bay.
- Foyer containing a compact kitchenette with a mini-refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker.
Exclusive Perks:
- Private beach access and over 100 feet of private shoreline
- Floating dock for launching kayaks, canoes, or stand-up paddleboards (equipment not provided)
- Situated on a half-acre with over 100 feet of private shoreline and amidst a dense, towering forest canopy for privacy.
Wake up each morning to the sounds of nature - birds chirping, the lapping of waves, and the rustling of evergreen trees. Spend your days exploring the island's hiking trails, beachcombing, or simply relaxing on the decks and taking in the tranquil surroundings.
Please note:
- Fire pits are not for guest use from May 1st-September 30th due to dry season and fire danger on San Juan Island. Ban is usually lifted October 1st if/when conditions and weather are favorable. Firewood not provided.
- This property does not have a TV.
- This is a Non-Smoking property.
- This home does not have Air Conditioning. The proximity to the Bay and a few open windows cools down this waterfront cabin on a warm day.
- We allow one dog per reservation with a pet fee. The dog must be attended at all times. We impose a $200 fee If a dog is left unattended and a neighbor complains. Weight must be 60 lbs. or less. Dog is not allowed on furniture. Renter assumes responsibility for all extra cleaning needed such as emergency carpet cleaning, furniture replacement, and or emergency laundromat use for bulky items like comforters and pillows. Dog must be house trained and on-leash while outside.
- No watercraft are provided but can be rented from a local boat rental company.
- Tides in Neil Bay can be extreme and during low tide, the water can get low enough for the dock to be beached. Please contact the office for special instructions regarding dock usage. The dock is only suitable for kayaks, standup boards and small boats 16 ft. and under or just loading and unloading at high tide.
- Internet Speed Test Results show a download speed of 25.4 Mbps and an upload speed of 35Mbps, Ping: 10.6 ms (Average of three tests that were conducted October 2024)
San Juan Island is a remote location, and it is good to keep in mind that intermittent, short, Wi-Fi disruptions are very normal for this area.
-Please be advised, yard maintenance may occur during your stay.
