The Farmhouse offers 3 bedrooms with queen beds, private decks, a walk-in double steam shower, with a gourmet kitchen, a wood stove in the great room, perfect for parties. There is a gas grill, charcoal grill and a Bertello Pizza Oven, as well as a fire pit and live fire cooking tools. Each suite can sleep at least 6, and has its own kitchen garden. Minimum stay 2 nights, unless approved. There is a wood-fired sauna available.

Nettles is situated on more than 5 acres of west-facing woodland, with more than 3 acres in cultivation. While once covered with row crops for the Willows Inn, now there are perennials such as grapes, berries, and fruit trees. The greenhouse is planted with tomatoes and other vegetables, for you to enjoy. We are just a few minutes' walk from our own public beach, called Sunset Beach for the startlingly colorful sunsets we often see. One little recognized fact is that most afternoons, all year, no matter the weather of the day, clouds part to the west and we are showered with glorious sunshine to end the day. This is the time to sit in the garden, facing the sun, and lift a glass of wine to celebrate the day.

Nettles Farm is a place to cook and enjoy good food, amid good air, and good water. Our eggs will make your breakfasts memorable. Arrange a visit to the reefnet fishing gears, and check for workshops.

We had the absolute BEST stay at Nettles and I wish we could have stayed longer!
The space is truly beautiful and well thought out. The bed was comfortable, the kitchen had everything you could need or want to cook, there were fresh eggs and bacon in the fridge. It was a truly magical stay and we will absolutely be back! Riley was responsive and lovely to interact with.

Charming, authentic farm stay
We discovered Nettles Farm many years ago. Riley is a great host and his approach to guests and the quality of provisions for meals, outstanding. He's also very resourceful and can connect you to the best of what Lummi has on offer. The farm is such a lovely place to relax and use as a base for a stay. The kitchen is well equipped and I love that Riley and team understand that travellers who like to cook don't really want to haul all the basics like salt, pepper, spices and such. Thank you.

Magical
The Nettle farmhouse was meticulously clean, beautifully architected, and was well stocked with kitchen tools. The beach was walking distance away. Riley has a great appreciation for art and has an amazing collection of work inside the farmhouse. We were able to pick fresh spinach, enjoy fresh organic eggs from the chickens on the farm, and Riley even smoked us a salmon. Fresh coffee that Riley had roasted and Nettle farmhouse jam were incredible.

Great stay at Nettles Farm!
Out stay at Nettles Farm was very convenient and comfortable. The rooms were big and spacious and we enjoyed the steam bath. All the ingredients for a good breakfast, including eggs from the farm, were available. A 2 min drive from Willow's Inn it was a special treat to find out if that Riley was the one who first put it on the map! He was such an interesting and inspiring host to chat with given his work on sustainable fishing. We also really enjoyed our visit to the reefnet fishing center.

About the host

Hosted by Host

Host profile image
I have been a commercial fisherman all of my adult life, graduating from WWU in 1972 and buying my first boat 6 months later.

I've owned many boats, from San Francisco Bay to Bristol Bay, but my favorite fishery came to me when I landed on Lummi Island in 1992. Reefnetting was the main island culture in those days, and I wanted to join in.
At the same time, Judy and I built a commercial kitchen attached to the house I had built, and proceeded to build a farm-to-pasta kitchen business. We added a USDA abattoir, and greenhouses, and chicken coops, and created a healthy business that served all of the Puget Sound area.

Not content to see our products in stores and restaurants, we decided in 2001 to buy the shuttered Willows Inn to make a farm-to-table restaurant, an idea still then in its infancy.

With the combination of the reefnet salmon, halibut and spot prawns just off the Willows deck, the produce from Nettles, and now our seaweed farm in Legoe Bay, we had an entire world that spoke specifically of Lummi Island. Continuing that vision with Nettles Farm, we have an authentic San Juan Island agritourismo, but you don't need to travel to italy to enjoy it.
