We had a great time. The properly is located near Moran State Park close to beautiful forests and hiking trails. The house is beautifully decorated and very comfortable and clean. Fantastic hotsts! We’d love to come back.
My mother and husband and I stayed for a week to explore the island at our own pace. The house was exactly as advertised and we found it to be perfectly cozy, safe and sanitary. The private little house had everything we needed for our dinners "in", (we made spaghetti) and lots of good breakfasts including eggs and pancakes. End of season restaurants were difficult to find for reliable meals, so having a well stocked kitchen (we brought our own ingredients) was a godsend. Delightful location, pristine private beach, and all the good island air we were hoping for. Looking forward to coming back someday.
Restful stay in a lovely home with great beach access
This spacious house in a very quiet part of Orcas Island met our family's needs very well. The multiple baths were very welcome with so many adults. Beds were comfy, linens nice and plentiful. Beach access is very close, and it's a nice spot. Too cool for us to really use the decks much, but they are nice. Great location for people like us who like to hike- the park is right next door
