Exclusive 10 acres atop Cady Mnt. View of Ocean & Vancouver Island

Exclusive 10 acres atop Cady Mnt. View of Ocean & Vancouver Island.

This is a special Northwest home. We know you'll relax and decompress in this unique and serene location and enjoy the very special place that is San Juan Island. The home is outfitted to suit the vacationer with walls of windows and skylights to let the warm Pacific Northwest Sun flow throughout the home. MB-King Bed, BR2-Queen Bed, BR3-Trundle (2) Twins or convertible to King size Bed.
As you step into this contemporary vacation home perched atop Cady mountain, you are drawn to the wall of windows and stunning forested ocean views encompassing Canada's Vancouver Island and Haro Strait ocean view. Step out to the wrap around decks. This newly custom built home is a warm and friendly environment and allows you to participate in all that nature has to offer. Orcas, deer, fox, eagle and a myriad of birds. Watch international shipping traffic, whale watching boats and sailboats. Track the maritime traffic with your laptop from any room in the house with high-speed Wi-Fi. Make good use of the telescope and binoculars! Cook your gourmet meals at home in the fully equipped kitchen.
The house is filled with light - windows surround the 'Great Room' = living and dining with kitchen bar seating separating the kitchen. Drift off to sleep in luxurious memory foam beds to the sight of stars overhead and ships passing in the night as you lift your head from bed.
If you're able to pull yourself away from the views and activites, the living room includes a 43" HD TV with Dish network programming. High-speed Wi-Fi internet access and free long-distance domestic calls.
San Juan Island is the best location in all of the Pacific Northwest for viewing the resident Orca pods. These magnificent animals provide exuberant displays as they feed on salmon, traveling back and forth in the waters surrounding San Juan Island. San Juan waters have been identified by Whale Museum biologists as a prime feeding area for the "J", "K", and "L" pods during the summer months.
Come see why the New York Times listed the San Juan Islands as #2 in their "Where to Go in 2011" guide - a list of 40 not-to-be-missed places around the world. Welcome to Paradise!

NYE on San Juan Island

Great home a wee bit off the beaten path (which is exactly what we were looking for). Everything on San Juan Island is pretty close and we had a great time. We wanted a place with no fire works (for my dog). Dog friendly and we enjoyed our stay.

Great getaway with my family

Wanted to get away with my brother and parents for my mom's 80th birthday and Karen's place was great. San Juan Island is small enough to easily get to Friday Harbor, Roche Harbor and all the great parks but staying at Karen's place you feel like it's just you and nature when you're there. If I decide to stay on San Juan Island again with a larger group, I would definitely come back.

Wonderful Property on Cady Mountain

This mountain house was absolutely beautiful, just as advertised. We had a wonderful stay. Communication with the property manager/owner was easy and she quickly responded before and during our stay. Would definitely stay at this house again, should the opportunity present itself.

San Juan Islands

First time to the San Juan Islands and didn’t really know what to expect other than photos. Well the pictures do not do justice on how beautiful this place is on the side of a mountain. Location is perfect since it’s only 20 - 15 minutes away from almost everything on the island. It was a great family vacation.
