Amazing sunsets!! Water view, hot tub, close to town, fire pit.
LAST MINUTE AVAILABILITY July 20-27, 2024 (ferry reservations can also still be made as spaces open up for booking 2 weeks and 2 days in advance)
Orcas Sunset Retreat is a beautifully curated house that comfortably accommodates up to 9 guests. Whether it be two families traveling together, a large extended family, a group of couples, or a Girl's Getaway, the layout and inviting common spaces will sure to make your stay relaxing. There is enough space for everyone to keep busy indoors and out.
Bedrooms There are 3 bedrooms, all on the main floor (1 King, 2 Queens) + an upstairs sleeping loft (2 twins + fold-out couch) . We are permitted to sleep 9 guests. The Master and one of the Queen bedrooms boast ocean views. There are no shared walls between bedrooms, allowing for maximal privacy. The King and Queen bedrooms are all outfitted with high thread count, 100% cotton linens and brand new Casper memory foam mattresses. Each bedroom is tastefully designed to provide guests with a peaceful and luxurious refuge.
Bathrooms: The house has 4 bathrooms. The en-suite master includes his/her sinks, a large soaking tub and walk-in shower. The three other bathrooms are all adjacent to each of the bedrooms (every bedroom can have its own bathroom!). All bathrooms are stocked with plush towels and all-natural shampoo/conditioner/body wash.
Kitchen: We love cooking on vacation, so have made sure the kitchen is well stocked with quality cookware, chef's knives, and a plentitude of dishes and serving pieces. Appliances include a Viking stove, Bosch refrigerator and TWO dishwashers. We have covered all the basic appliances including coffee pot, french press, coffee grinder, toaster, blender, microwave, hand mixer, griddle, and crock pot. We also try to keep a supply of spices, oil, flour/sugar on hand as well, along with foil and saran wrap.
Living Room: The living room is a large open concept living room with gas fireplace, ocean views, and plenty of comfy space for everyone to gather. There is a Smart TV ready for you to login to your Netflix, Disney+, Amazon, etc.. accounts, as well as a Bluetooth speaker. Or, you can spin a record on the Popsky turnable!
Dining area: The dining room features a farmstyle, live-edge solid teak dining table brought in from Indonesia. It seats 8+ with 6 chairs and one long bench. It is perfect for family meals and/or board games. There are also 4 stools at the kitchen island for additional seating, as well as an outdoor dining table for summer meals al fresco.
Loft: The upstairs loft has two twin beds with memory foam toppers and one fold-out sofa. This is a fun hang out for the kids with the couch, large bean bag chair, and TV (with Amazon fire stick) & DVD player. We have a ton of books, games, dress up clothes, and DVDs to keep kids busy when not out exploring the island and outdoors. Further, the loft has its own air conditioner (sometimes needed in the summer) and sky lights, keeping the room light & bright. Fortunately, this space is comfortable and cute enough that adults won't mind sleeping there if needed.
Study: The main floor study provides a desk and leather chair if work is calling. This is also where you'll find find a selection of books, games, and puzzles.
Outdoor space: The Orcas Sunset Retreat is situated on 3 private acres boasting magnificent ocean views, an expansive lawn, forested areas on the perimeter, and even a small sping-fed pond. Spotting wildlife such as deer, ducks, and bald eagles are everyday experiences. In the ocean view backyard, you will be spoiled with a large outdoor deck with dining table, gas grill, patio with fire pit & adirondack chairs, and hot tub. In the front, enjoy relaxing on the front porch swing or spending time relaxing by the spring-fed pond. ** The pond is located in the front of the property approximately 100 ft from the house. It is not appropriate for swimming and does not have a fence surrounding it. Please exercise caution around the pond, especially if you have young children.**

Loved this welcoming slice of heaven! We were prepared to relax and take in the peace and tranquility of this space. All the comforts of home. The weather was wonderful. We stopped at the Island Market and brought our favorite munchies for our stay for BBQs and morning coffees. Lots to do around the island depending on what you want to do even if it's just reclining outside reading a book and seeing the local visiting deer. Plenty of hiking, biking, boating...adventures await!
Location was amazing! House was very well equipped and beautiful. Bed linens were great. Host was very quick to respond to texts. We had a wonderful time.
The home and location were simply perfect. Well stocked kitchen, comfy beds, very clean, beautiful sunsets. A perfect getaway for four best friends of 40 years!
An absolutely lovely house with an incredible sunset view every night. The location is fantastic, and the house has everything you need for a trip with a baby and a toddler. Highly recommend this place!!
Fantastic home filled with great amenities and great location. Close to town but far away from the hustle and bustle, down a private lane. Perfect for families and the kitchen is fantastic. The sunsets are outstanding! We will be back.
Loved this place. Gorgeous views. Great layout for two families. Kids loved making smores outside, playing pickleball, and exploring the property. While we had a couple of small issues, the property manager & owner responded immediately & helpfully. We hope we are able to visit again at some point!
We had such an incredible stay. The location is perfect. Close enough for easy access to the town but also tucked away in a tranquil forest that is very calm and serene with stunning views of the water. The fire pit, hot tub, pickle ball court and board games were fun touches! This was a wonderful trip, I really hope to come back!
We loved staying in this Orcas home. Great, clear communication from the host, a gorgeous, comfortable house, and I really appreciated the labeling on the light switches.
This was our first visit to Orcas Island, and it won't be our last. This home was everything we needed it to be. The view, the comfort, the wonderful things that kept a family of 7 (all adults) entertained. If you're wondering if this is a perfect place to stay, IT IS!!!!
I don't always rate my stays after some pressure/blowback from former owners, but I do jump in here to say that this property was wonderful. Sunset view was amazing and loved the outdoor games. House was perfect for our family group complete with toys, books and dress-ups!
My husband grew up vacationing in the San Juan Islands with his family and we have continued the tradition with our kids. After renting several houses, we wanted to make one our own. Having a lot of experience renting vacation homes, we feel like we know what makes one great! Building on this knowledge, we have brought our dream to life with the Orcas Sunset Retreat. We hope you are able to enjoy the hou\se as much as we do!
