Studio with Bath and Kitchenette

JosieRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Hannah's studio was a wonderful place to stay. The surroundings are peaceful and beautiful. The studio has its own patio and I spent most of my time sitting there enjoying the views. Everything about the place exceeded my expectations. Hannah even gave me a review on how to use a drop spindle in her little spinning/weaving studio. I plan to come back with my husband this summer!

Twin Palms at Forbidden Island Motor Lodge

GinaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
The Twin Palms at Forbidden Island Motor Lodge is beyond cool. The mid century mod vibes were so rad, from the decor to the layout. The location is easily walkable to the local restaurants and the ferry. Comfy bed, private soaking tub outside and the fire pit were great after a long day of exploring the island. Like a private groovy sanctuary. It was like being transported to the 60s in the best possible way. I was only sorry I didn’t bring a caftan. Can’t wait to come back and see how the entire property develops. Jason has a vision and it’s got fabulous potential for an entire resort.

Sea Forever Guest House (#PPRPVO-12-0033)

JustinRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We very much enjoyed our stay at Linda and Brad’s cottage. It was the perfect place for a weekend get-away. The directions to get to the cabin were wonderfully specific and it was so nice of Linda to send us a reminder to book ferry reservations well before our stay (seriously, don’t wait!). While the cottage was next to the house, the huge windows overlook the water and you have complete privacy. The kitchen is very well-stocked and we particularly enjoyed the local coffee beans that were available. We also very much enjoyed sating “hi” to Toby (their dog) every time we left and returned to the cottage. Orcas island was great for a relaxing weekend away! We were able to enjoy a few hikes, and some good food. Cannot recommend the breakfast burrito from Cafe Aurora in Eastsound enough - one of the top five best things I have ever eaten. We may have to plan a trip back just to get that burrito again! Big thanks to Linda, Brad, Blue, and Toby for hosting us.

Ship Supply Cottage Lopez Village

LillianaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We visited Lopez Island for a quick weekend away and are so happy we chose Linnea’s place. The house was very charming and included everything we need while there. Its location was perfect (right in the heart of the village so we could easily walk to restaurants and shops). Also, the bed upstairs that we slept in was VERY comfy. Highly recommend. Thank you, Linnea!

Romantic Waterfront Escape with Private Beach

AjoyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We liked the condo and location very much. Very peaceful, quiet and private, the unit is well maintained, and everything we used worked. Kitchen was great, we used it for breakfast everyday. Hardly anyone walking the beach during our stay, and it was relaxing watching the tide come in and out, with the lights from Canada at the distance. A place to stay if you're after a quiet, relaxing vacation. The restaurant at the nearby resort is a very short walk away, and pretty good even with the short menu, as their main kitchen is closed for renovation.

Cabin in Cultus Lake

Rustic Cultus Lake 3 Bedroom & Loft Family Cabin

BenRating, 5 stars3 days ago
The place was exactly as described. Because the hosts regularly use the place for themselves, there was a lot of additional comforts that made it very livable. For example, the kitchen is very well stocked, the knives are sharp, there are lots of towels to use, and the backyard is a great extension of the living space. The location is central and private and everything is simple and easy to use (fireplaces, BBQ, hot tub, tv, music etc). Beds are comfortable enough and the outdoor space is great! There is a big outdoor dining table, outdoor lounge chairs for the firepit, and an awesome little covered outdoor living room with an additional firepit and TV. The shower and bathroom is really nice too! The communication with the hosts was not the most welcoming. They were concerned about the purpose of our trip and even went as far as to say that it is "not normal" for a group of 7 long-term friends to stay at Cultus lake. Hopefully they can show guests more trust in the future.

Cedar Cabin, Hot Tub, BBQ, WiFi, Deck

JuliaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We had a great time at Scott’s place. It was the perfect accommodation for a weekend of snowboarding at Mt. Baker. Some highlights were; the hot tub after a day on the mountain, the game cube which had Mario cart to keep us entertained, and how close the cabin was to some yummy restaurants (Chair 9- great pizza). Scott was also going to allow us to stay an extra night since the weather going back to Vancouver wasn’t great for driving which was very kind. Would recommend his place to anyone and would love to come back in the summer to explore.

A Celebration in View condo 2 K 1 Q with Hot Tub

MeganRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We really enjoyed our stay! Loved that from one balcony we had a river view and the other a view of the bay. The home was comfortable and cozy for our family. Beds had nice, soft (and clean!) sheets, comfortable mattresses as well. Short walk to beach access and coffee shop which was a plus as well.

Waterfront Luxury | The Perch at Birch Bay

KimRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Absolutely beautiful area!! If you're looking for a relaxing place on the water with an absolutely beautiful view...look no further! We (family of 4) visited from the East Coast...we checked out Vancouver and Seattle - both areas well within driving distance. But, once you arrive here....you won't want to leave or venture out too far away. We enjoyed all of the different animals we saw...felt like we had our own private viewing of the bald eagles. We definitely will consider visiting PNW in the future. We had a fantastic time!!

Sunset house beachfront bungalow

JessRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Words cannot describe how special this place is. We were lucky enough to stay for almost a month, and the house and beach just kept on giving. The space has an incredible view out to the Salish sea, and we watched a parade of herons, bald eagles, and numerous other seabirds from the front deck. The house is equipped with everything you need and more, full of whimsy and fun art supplies, games, the best blankets and comforters ever, and two cozy fireplaces. The photos do not do the house justice; it's huge and modern, open plan, but with lots of private sitting spaces. Dawn and Zach are the kindest, most wonderful hosts. There's a reason the Sunset house has hundreds of rave reviews. If you have a chance to book it, don't hesitate.
