The view was breathtaking. It was cozy and felt like home. Perfect space for a group of people to be together but still have privacy. We could not have imagined a better set up for seven adults (two from the Midwest) who wanted to be together, catch up, relax, and surround ourselves with the beauty of the NW. Extremely well appointed.

First time I have ever had trouble with a rental in ten years - we received a note that we had extra cleaning fees, unstated pet fee ( I did state the dog ), and extra person fees ( could only book six despite 7 beds and their “ video review showed we had 7”. ). We stripped beds and started laundry , swept all floors and were above and beyond clean. Apparently extra cleaning was for an “oyster smell outside” - we did not leave any oysters anywhere . Make sure you contact AND get a reply from host if you bring a pet or person over 6. Also one of the kayaks takes on water.

About the host

Hosted by Kristie and Emre Kucur

Host profile image
We are a Seattle based family of 4 who dreamed of having waterfront property in the islands. In 2015 our dream was realized and we spent 18 months renovating, island style. Now it is fully upgraded and ready to share with your family!

Why they chose this property

This property, perched on the hillside, gives you the best of both worlds; peace and tranquility to unplug, enjoy the views and wild life, while being close to the the activities at Roche Harbor, just a 5 minute walk, and Friday Harbor, a 15 minute drive. We love all the island has to offer in kayaking, hiking, beach combing, crabbing, digging for clams, eating fresh seafood, including fresh oysters from just across the bay!

What makes this property unique

We offer 3 sea kayaks (single person) and 1 double, 2 paddle boards, 1 canoe, 4 adult bicycles, 2 kids bikes (6 - 11 yo), 1 kids Burley trailer, 1 kid bike attachment, and 1 razor scooter for your use. Boards, ping pong, games, puzzles, soccer balls
