Cottage vacation rentals in San Juan County

My friends and I had a very pleasant stay. We were within driving distance of many fun activities and shops on the island. The house was clean and there was lots of seating. We took advantage of the hot tub, kitchen, and tv. I liked the big ottoman for playing games. Would stay again!

This Eastsound home on Cascade Bay, adjacent to Rosario Resort, is a perfect San Juan Island getaway. Despite the resort's proximity, it's extremely quiet and private. The view of the bay and marina from the deck is wonderful, offering a picturesque backdrop. The home is comfortable, spacious yet cozy, and well-appointed with thoughtful details. The bathrooms are stocked with soaps and lotions, and the kitchen is fully equipped with herbs, spices, and cooking oils. High-quality linens, including towels, sheets, and comforters, add a touch of luxury. The location is ideal for walks and hikes, with Moran State Park nearby. We enjoyed hiking around the beautiful Cascade Lake. A minor downside was the 4 pm check-in and the lack of response to our request for an earlier check-in. However, the 10 am checkout was convenient for our ferry schedule. Travel Tip: Plan your trip to Orcas Island in advance. Secure ferry reservations through the Washington State Dept of Transportation website

its a nice cottage with a decent view clean and compfy in a quiet area not far away from some of the islands most beautiful places

Beautiful view of the north side of the island. Well stocked kitchen, fun private beach, lots of fun extra touches around the house. A lot bigger than the listing, was a great place for a home base and we can't wait to stay again. Responsive host.

It was lovely to wake up to beautiful views that only the San Juan islands can offer. We spent our 25th anniversary here and couldn’t have asked for a better place!

The North Beach Inn was the perfect stay for our trip to Orcas Island. Waking up to the beach in the morning and watching the wildlife like the seals and bald eagles was a nice way to start the day. We played the board games provided and had a wonderful fire on the beach. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this spot to my friends!

We went for a weekend getaway for my birthday and did not want to leave! Such a cute little cottage, exactly as advertised. The beach area was lovely to sit and watch the wildlife, and take walks and we found some beautiful pebbles and shells. I loved that it also had a yard area with a picnic table and could see having a beautiful meal out there in warmer weather. We arrived earlier than expected but the host allowed us to check in early so we could get settled, and the bed was a very comfortable respite after long days of travel/ exploring the island. We will definitely be staying again someday!

exactly what we needed and expected - private, rustic cabin with everything we needed. we will definitely be back!

What a wonderful spot to have a weekend getaway. The house was perfect,a cozy fireplace,big kitchen for cooking and an incredible view. The grounds are also wonderful. Right on the water with a private area for each cabin. We’d love to come visit again.

The location of these two cottages right in Lopez Village enabled us to leave the car behind. We literally coasted down one block to the start of the Tour de Lopez bike ride. In the Village there are at least three great restaurants (these are the ones we were able to sample). All within a short stroll - one just half a block away and none more than 2 blocks away from the cottages. The garden with many Rhody’s in bloom and multiple seating areas to choose from were so welcoming.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. The cottage is steps away from the beach where we spent most of our time. Friendly neighbors and wildlife share the beach but felt pretty private our whole stay. The PNW is a magical place and this stay was a wonderful way to take in all the beauty.

Amazing!! Just needed a quick getaway for the weekend, so finding NB was not only a pleasant surprise, it was incredible! We will absolutely be back every time we come to Orcas!

Fantastic stay in Eastsound. Lydia’s place has an amazing location close to all amenities yet away from noise. Rooms were clean and comfortable. We loved that our dog Neve was able to join. Lydia was also kind to let us visit her farm on the other side of the island. Our girls had a blast with the goats, pigs, chickens and organic garden. Thank you Lydia!

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.

Lynna and Dennis’s cottage was the single best airbnb experience we’ve had. The space is beautiful and cozy, and our hosts were infinitely kind and welcoming. There is so much to do on this property—it was a true “choose your own adventure” experience. It seemed like every day we discovered a new nook or cranny that Lynna and Dennis have put there to surprise and delight guests. We kayaked, explored the tide pools, lit the wood stove when it got chilly out, and had an all around wonderful time. Their recommendations for things to try around the island were spot on. (Check out the whale watch they suggest—we had a blast, and learned a lot about the region!) There is so much more to be done and enjoyed on this property and on Orcas than we could fit into four days, and we sincerely hope we’ll have the chance to return soon!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay with Lynna and Dennis. The cottage was just as described, just steps from the waterfront and we enjoyed the private beaches and daily kayaking excursions from the dock. What a peaceful, beautiful and relaxing spot. My only regret is that we could not stay longer.... but we will, next time. Lynna provided very helpful instructions ahead of time about the ferry and reservations. The cottages are both charming and fully-equipped, very clean and everything was as-written. There are plenty of restaurants to choose from, both in Westsound (a few) and more options in Eastsound and beyond. I'd highly recommend, and we're already planning our next trip back.

What a magical place! Only wished we could have stayed longer. Absolutely stunning home nestled in the forest on the edge of the sea. Had a great time

We were so happy when we drove up to Autumn's place. The surroundings are beautiful, and the location quiet and private. The home was spacious, the rooms perfect for our stay, the furniture comfortable (we loved the rocking chair!), the bedding was comfy, and the kitchen had everything we needed. We loved watching the deer every morning and enjoyed all of the birds. We also loved being close to Moran State Park and Obstruction Pass Park. We didn't mind driving to town for supplemental grocery shopping - the Coop and town market are both very nice. We would love to stay here again and will certainly recommend it!

We loved our stay at Willow Cottage. The house was cozy and warm, the location was fantastic and Jennifer was incredibly friendly. Our family of four visited in late December and had a wonderful time reading by the fire, watching movies, hiking Turtleback Mountain, cooking and doing all the fun local activities. It was also a great place for our dog. We wondered whether the wifi would be strong enough to watch movies, but aside from a little pixelation, it was totally fine. We'd return in a heartbeat!

10/10 place to stay on Orcas! The views are phenomenal and there’s a front yard beach! Great for a family of 3, amazing location, great amenities. Thank you, will be back!!
