The Jewel of the San Juans....
Lopez Island is located in the Puget Sound off the NW corner of Washington State. It is known for it's pristine beauty, great beaches, and friendly inhabitants. Lopez is referred to as "the crown jewel" of the San Juan Islands. Most of the island's businesses are located in Lopez Village, a hamlet on Fisherman Bay. On Saturday morning in the summer, you'll find shoppers milling around the farmers market, locals chatting in the coffee shops , and children and adults alike beach walking and bicycling. Spencer Spit State Park, Shark Reef, Ice Berg Point and MacKaye Harbor are just a few of the must see places on the Island.

Another lovely stay in McBarron Cottage
We have stayed in this property several times now. It has all the necessities for living comfortably, plus a lot of fascinating art works! And we love the south end location, which is close to my daughter and her family. It was lovely to be able to spend Christmas with my family. Thank you!

Very quiet house
Beautiful home, well-appointed, friendly and easy-to-communicate-with host. Perfect little outdoor grill, too! We walked all around, over to McKay Harbor and Agate Beach, lovely views and very quiet area. Having puzzles or a deck of cards would be a nice touch.

Great atmosphere, great hosts
The house is on a farm, in a very quiet private road. We love the quietness and the openness of the farm. Fun to stroll around the farm and look at the trees. Short distance to Iceberg and Watmough bay. Took about 10 minutes for us to e-bike to either places. Place is very clean. Water pressure is very low in 1 of the bathrooms, but was fine in the other one. We talked to James and Steve. They were super nice gentlemen. The place doesn’t allow bikes inside the house, but there’s a covered front porch that you can park your bikes. There’s also an outdoor electrical outlet to charge your e-bikes.

Serenity with a view
We have stayed at this South Lopez VRBO several times and enjoy the beautiful distant view of McKay Harbor with its glorious sunsets. Last time we saw a large owl on top of the umbrella pole about 15 ft. from the sliding glass doors, and this time we saw a great blue heron high-stepping along the close fence line. Two magnificent birds! These sightings have added to the charm of our visits to this cozy, comfortable, well-appointed rental.

Wonderful Island Getaway
Somehow my original rating and review didn’t go through I guess. My husband and I always enjoy our stays at this property near our daughter and her family. The first morning a large female Banded Owl came to hunt from the top of the patio umbrella which is very close to the glass doors. She was there for a good ten minutes, so we got a very good look at our magnificent feathered visitor. Delightful!

The Epitome of Peace
Our friends and my husband and I could not have asked for a more relaxing peaceful environment that was a much needed break from the fast pace of our city life and work. A highlight was meeting two of the owners, one who delightfully left a carton of the most delicious freshly picked strawberries on our front porch. We will be back!

Peaceful retreat with sunset views
This property was very comfortable for two couples as it had two bathrooms and two bedrooms. The view from the deck was lovely. It's not on the water but you can see the water in the distance and it's facing west so we saw some beautiful sunsets. The beds were comfortable and the property manager went out of his way to answer all questions.

Excellent location but non functional showers
This property is very well located in a quiet area with lovely views of water and sunset. It is cozy. Just right for 2 adults. The kitchen tools need some upgrading especially knives for cooking so you don’t bludgeon everything you try to cut or slice. Most disappointing was that neither shower was functional. We managed but won’t stay here again unless these issues are remedied. Too bad because southern part of island is terrific for kayaking and the cottage itself was very comfortable.

Beautiful
A beautiful property. Lovely views. Private and serene. Great location. Cozy with great art pieces in each room as well as outside to enjoy. Great out door deck areas! Really enjoyed listening to the birds in the morning, saw a baby fawn , and several bald eagles and seals swimming in the harbour. Everything you need! We hope to stay here anytime we plan to come to the island. Highly recommend.

Bird song and quiet beauty
I came to Lopez, my happy place, to press the reset button and quietly celebrate my retirement. I enjoyed the quiet and explored parts of the island I had not known before. In addition to a well-appointed pretty home and friendly hosts, I also recommend the binder for the suggested hikes!

Comfortable and pleasant house on the south end of Lopez Island
Besides being comfortable and beautifully located with a distant view of water featuring lovely sunsets, the house has many beautiful glass and other artworks. The manager promptly and effectively took care of one problem we had. Once again we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this property. We have now spent 5 weeks in it!

South Island retreat
The South end of the island has a special feel. We came to the island for a memorial. It was great to come back to a homey, comfortable, and quiet place. The kitchen has everything one might need. It looks deceiving from the outside but is very roomy inside. I would have loved a little more water pressure in the shower but realize living on an island has its advantages and disadvantages. The view and privacy made up for it.
