About this property

Lopez Island Beachfront Sanctuary - Hot-tub - Amenities

This one-of-a-kind private beachfront property has been in the family for many years. Our family's history on Lopez dates back to 1905.

The signature property features Native American themed artwork, including original paintings by Pacific NW artist Gray Shepard. Inspired by Native American longhouses where tribal members gathered, the basement entertainment area serves as a family gathering place outfitted with modern day amenities including HDTV, Blu-Ray player, foosball, and air hockey tables.

The home sleeps up to 8 with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, game room, gas fireplace, gazebo with hot tub overlooking the water and islands, and patio with 180° sweeping views of neighboring islands, passing marine traffic, gas BBQ, and firebowl table and chairs. The ferry landing is just 5 minutes away. There's a private mooring buoy and a boat launch within walking distance at Odlin County Park. Stairs lead to a private beach.

Lopez Island is the gateway to B.C. and Vancouver Island. Enjoy spectacular 180° views of neighboring islands. The surrounding area is filled with unlimited recreational opportunities.

Whether you come for a few nights in the off-season or a week or more in summer, this will be a perfect location to enjoy water and land recreation and the natural beauty of the San Juan Islands and Salish Sea, explore the history and culture of the area, or just relax and whale watch from the deck.

Awesome View!

This waterfront location can't be beat. The view is spectacular from inside and outside the home. Great access to the beach. The home is clean and well equipped. Having a hot tub is a real bonus.

Fantastic spot

Seven of us stayed in this house and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. The view onto Shoal Harbor is gorgeous, the hot tub was great, and the house is comfortable and cozy. We cooked most of our meals there and had everything we needed. Angie (local contact) was really quick to respond and helpful when we had a few questions. It was hard to leave!

Wonderful stay on Lopez

We had a group of seven family members across three generations, and just loved staying in this beautiful home on Lopez. The view is spectacular, and we all enjoyed watching the light and the water change constantly throughout the day, including watching the ferries come and go and sightings of seals and seabirds. We also enjoyed the beachfront, the deck, and the grassy lawn. The house is very well located, near the ferry and the village, and the hosts were very helpful and responsive.

Amazing View and Location

Wow what a great house with a lower floor perfect for our two cavefish teenagers and the rest of the house for us. We kayaked from here to Obstruction Park (Orcas) and did some fantastic biking around Lopez. Also easy day trip to Friday Harbor. Sad we HAD to leave.... Thanks to Sarah and John for being great hosts!

Perfect anniversary weekend

The view is magic. The property managers were extremely helpful and quick to reply. We biked on the ferry and were able to drop all of our stuff off at the house before checking in later. The hot tub was critical after our huge bike rides. Perfect vacation home.

Excellent views

We loved our stay here. The views were amazing. Even being that close to the neighbors, we never saw or heard them. It was very private. If you want to get away and relax, this is the place to do it. We would stay here again.

Window house with amazing views

We loved our two weeks at this house on Lopez. My 4 year old referred to it as the “window house”, which seems apt as the living room features big windows facing out to such a beautiful view of the bay. We loved watching the ferries come and go, the seals and otters playing in the bay, and various birds including an eagle. The front lawn was fun to play on and the beach access was great. We also loved the location - we rode bikes to Spencer Spit and went for runs on the road that runs along the water. It’s near town which is also convenient. The house worked well for our two families. The kids spent a lot of time playing downstairs while the grownups relaxed on the deck or in the living room. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is functional and nice.

Family Fun for all ages

We had a family celebration of a 50th Wedding anniversary and 40th birthday. The house worked well for our multi generational group. The house was well equipped and the view spectacular. We had a poor experience with the Washington ferry system and would have appreciated a heads up on the need to be in line an hour early to return to Anacortes. We actually missed the ferries quota twice!

Loved the view.

We loved the view and we loved seeing all the birds and animals. The L shaped couches facing the water were always occupied. We. Would visit again in a heartbeat if we could bring our daughters dog/child but alas, dogs are not allowed. The house rules notebook talked about dogs being at the house and people in the guest book said their dogs loved the place and there is a great fenced in area that would be perfect for Fideo...its too bad dogs are no longer allowed. I was also never able to find a specific list of things to do at check out so we made our best guess and did the dishes and put towels in the laundry room and covered the bbq, locked windows ect ect. The beds were comfy and we enjoyed the original 70's retro decor, especially the hanging grape bunches light fixtures in the basement bathroom, they were spectular. Over all we loved our time at the house and our time on the island. Thanks for sharing your home.

Don't Go to Lopez Island Because I Want to Save it for Myself

If you are looking for relaxation & quiet...then this is the place. The house has everything you need for an amazing vacation: amazing view, bikes, game room, hot tub, location. Lopez Island is just the island to look for in the San Juans - beautiful, secluded, quiet with just enough restaurants to break up the week of cooking at home. There are more bikes than cars on the road. Deer grazed in the yard every night. The house is perfect to the island ambiance.

Great place for a mellow get away.

Big house. Lovely access to the beach. WIFI was a little spotty but its like that everywhere on Lopez. Only complaint was the big game room/ double bedroom area in the basement after day two was really musty smelling and towards the end of the week nobody wanted to stay downstairs because it was very pungent down there.

Super spot on Lopez

This spacious house was an excellent spot for a family getaway with our adult children. We found it to be comfortable for 7 (two couples and 3 singles), and a perfect and quiet location for ferry watching; cycling to town and beyond; nature viewing (eagles, otters, deer); walking on the beach, or simply relaxing on the deck and in the hot tub overlooking the water. Well stocked for cooking. We would definitely visit again!

A nice surprise with a beautiful view

Looking at the pictures on vrbo I knew this house was slightly dated, however upon arrival I was pleasantly surprised to learn that the house was thoughtfully designed and extremely clean. Yes, dated but very functional and comfortable. The multidimenstional view Orcas island can not be beat! 2 families with 5 children stayed here as a home base as we day tripped around the San Juans by sailboat which we anchored in front of house. (the mooring ball assigned to house did not look well maintained to support our boat). All in all, a great week!
