Great view, comfy older home

The view was incredible. The home was comfortable but dated (low sink heights, etc.). We had an issue with the showers and Vacasa sent a very nice repair guy quickly and he took care of the issue prombtly. Nice and relaxing stay overall. Recommend the place.

Beautiful Cabin - 10/10

Stayed here for a few days during a stay on Orcas with some old friends from college. We absolutely loved the spot and can’t recommend it highly enough. Remote in the best possible way. Lovely accommodations, great view. We saw a seal and otters right in the backyard!

Secluded, peaceful, and stunning nature retreat

The location couldn't be better if you are looking for a quiet vacation and immerged in nature. A private beach and cove with emerald green water. The last .6 miles is a little challenging to drive due to the steep slope and uneven road but any SUV should do IMHO.

Beautiful Sunrise

This home has the most amazing view of the sunrise! It is located in a very quiet, secluded area. If you are looking for a place to just chill and enjoy the otters, raccoons, deer, harbor seals, and scenery then I recommend staying here.

Serenity indeed

I have been coming to the island for 12 years and never once have I been more surprised and love more a location and house like this one. The drive into the place was nothing short of magical (4wheel drive needed on rainy days but that was fine) the house was so quite and cozy. The water front rocks and little private beech made me feel like I was all alone and filled with peace during a crazy hectic family filled week. All and all I was overjoyed with my stay :)

Great quiet cabin with wonderful view.

The cabin is very cozy, with a really nice view of Eastsound. It is at the end of a very quiet private gravel road, so plenty of privacy. We loved all the old pictures and such, and appreciated the homey decor and all the books! We met the owner's son and he was very helpful, and the local Vacasa team were absolutely amazing! We look forward to visiting the island again soon!

Complete relaxation

Felt like we were staying in a home of one of our own relatives and everything made us feel as if we were part of their family. Wonderful seclusion with wildlife and sea life popping in for a visit every day. Beautiful sunrises and sipping coffee on the deck watching the waves made the days go by too fast and we would stay longer if we could. Thanks to the owner for providing this wonderful property!

Hidden Gem

Beautiful cabin with it’s own private beach, grill and balconies to take in the gorgeous views. Perfect landing spot at the end of a day of hiking and exploring Orcas Island. The cabin has everything you need to cook your own meals (if that’s your thing). Property managers are responsive if something comes up. Will definitely consider staying again for our next Orcas Island vacation.

Fabulous view

Sometimes the pictures are better than reality. This was even better than the pictures! Truly beautiful view from every window. The deck was amazing. An orca pod swam by. There were seals and otters at the beach every single day. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you so much!

Get away from it all!

If you’re looking for a place to get away from everything then this is the spot! Wake up and have your coffee overlooking an amazing view and hoping to see whales migrating through. Home was perfect for our friends and family and gave us ample room to enjoy each other and solitude. You have your choice of two private beaches to go and experience a true cold plunge! I would definitely recommend this home to anyone that wants to get away from the hustle and bustle to reconnect with nature, family, and self.

We love this wonderful house

Our family has rented this home most years since 2003, 19 years ago. We love the sense of peace we have there, whether we are sitting on the bluff watching the sunrise, walking the roads, or reading on the two decks or inside. The home is a 1960s Lindal cedar home, with big windows and the feel of a large and comfortable cabin. We never tire of watching the light change on the water and islands throughout the day and in all kinds of weather. We look forward every year to our return.

Orcas Island House

This was a great property to rent for the week. Getting to the house did involve driving down a fairly rough dirt road- but my rental sedan was more than capable of navigating the road. (Google Maps really wants to send you down Dolphin Bay Road- unless a ferry is arriving Orcas Rd is a much better option.) House looked like the pictures. You may want to bring some extra bit of firewood - several places in Eastsound sold it.

Magical

It was a wonderful week of quiet, pristine beauty! Our annual Gal-Pal trip from our Berkeley days circa 1970’s! We love nature… quiet… hiking… exploring… in comfort! This hit every mark! Yes the cabin is dated… some interesting access to the beach coves… but that just added to the feeling of remoteness. Of all our different adventures this one was pretty close to the top! Don’t change a thing!! Thank you for sharing your little slice of heaven!

We've loved this house for 20 years.

We love its setting at the edge of the forest on the waterfront of East Sound with views of six islands plus Mt. Baker if it's clear, its safe access beach, the bluff below the house for watching the sunrise, plus birds, seals, and occasionally otters. We love its overall peace, quiet and privacy. It is convenient to the ferry (15 minutes, tops) and the Orcas Village store, and about a half hour drive to Eastsound. We love that it is a family home, with family photos and mementos. We feel like honorary family members while we're there. We love how comfortable and un-fussy it is, a real country home. We're always thrilled to arrive and sad to leave.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, communication
The water knob on gust shower broke and we didn't received a reply until the evening and told us that they couldn't send anybody until they find a plumber. .( 6) adults shower on the main bathroom until we fixed the other one temporarily. Not enough pressure in main shower.. Horrible pillows. Very uncomfortable beds ( woke up with backaches). Dirty Window. No additional trash bags. Hated to see a deer head on the wall. Hated to see personal pictures all over the walls ( very add and creepy). Onlything we liked was the view.. .

Private home and beach

Very private, lovely house on the water. Stayed here with grandparents and kids. House was enjoyed by all. Great views from the deck. Saw a lot of wildlife: bald eagles, deer, seals, an otter family, and a pod of orca whales! Tips: *Ignore GPS navigation to turn right on "Pine Ridge Dr", stay on "White Beach Rd" and take right on "Evergreen Way". *Last half mile is on a narrow gravel/dirt road. *The trail to the house's bigger private beach is near the driveway. If you face the road, the trail is to the right of the electric meter. Trail is marked "Use at your own risk". We had no problems with the trail, it is about 150ft long with slight decline. *A raccoon comes by at night. Make sure your garbage is secured away from the house(by the electric meter) and don't leave any food out at night.

Rustic cabin with great views

We read the reviews before booking this cabin, so we were prepared for the rustic feel of the place. This is clearly a well-loved family home full of memories. It hasn't been updated much, but that's part of the charm. The house was stocked with all the necessities and was very clean. The grounds on which the house sits are beautiful. We had so much fun walking down to the clear water. Its a bit cold for swimming but my sons took a quick polar plunge. The paths down to the water could be a bit challenging for some, but the view from the back porch is equally as impressive. The house sits on a big plot of land off the beaten path, and is very secluded. The only downside was that the ferries were not running on time the day we arrived (no fault of ours or the owner). We were delayed hours at the dock in Anacortes, and it was dark when we arrived on the island. Getting to this rental in the dark is tricky!
