We had a wonderful stay & highly recommend, quiet part of the island with private beach access. In August we experienced all types of weather - rain / sun / cold / hot so pack for a typical PNW trip!

Lovely house that is a very short walk to the beach and overlook. We enjoyed coffee out on the deck and waking to seeing the sunrise over the ocean from the master bedroom. Extremely peaceful and relaxing setting.

The quiet forest and nearby beach access make this a really lovely location. We appreciated Vacasa allowing us to amend our original reservation to add an additional night. The cabin has a lot of shared spaces, which make it very suitable for a family or group. However, we did wish for non-plasticked windows that could be freely opened, which would have improved air circulation and mitigated the musty smell inside the cabin.

It was a great stay, was easy to check-in and check-out. we didn't attempt to go to the beach so I cannot speak to the proximity or quality of the beach. Otherwise the drive to the home was beautiful and it is only 15 minutes to anything we need including amazing restaurants. We will be coming back!

The property is very well maintained in a remote location close to a private beach. The ocean view from the upper room is delightful. A bit cold in the winter despite the numerous small electric heaters, but this adds to the rusticity of the place. The kids loved it too!

We loved our stay at this nicely renovated house in the woods! It made me want to move to the island and live in that peaceful spot all the time! There was a fairly well equipped kitchen but there was only one small cutting board which made cooking meals a little tough.

This house is in a quiet and wooded area with a view of the water. We had a nice relaxing time. It's about 10-15 minutes from Eastsound.

Most of the time the only sounds we could hear were the birds and the water down at the nearby beach. The home was comfortable and seemed plenty spacious enough for us despite the pictures making it look a little cramped.

Comfortable, well maintained property. It's a great place to decompress with a peaceful location toward the end of the road. There is a nice small community beach to wander and take in the sea, Mt Baker, and comb for shells, etc. Wifi was strong. Check in and check out were easy. One word of caution is that the place could become unreachable or nearly so if there is significant snow or ice in winter.

The house is fine for a rental, a little musty unless you keep the air on. No AC on the upstairs although you don’t need it during the night. Cozy and secluded easy walk to the water beautiful scenery.

We loved our stay at this lovely property. The location of the house was wonderful, with a private beach nearby. We had one major issue which was that the primary bedroom upstairs had huge windows (lovely) with no blinds or curtains at the top. The room was entirely too bright to sleep in. Especially with the sun pattern there at that time of year. My husband and I had to sleep downstairs with our kids as a result. We hope the property manager fixes this issue because during the summer months it is truly a deterrent, I'd think. Otherwise, we loved our stay!

My husband and I were looking for a cosy relaxing vacation away from the city for 3 nights, but unfortunately this property was freezing cold and damp when we arrived. The property manager who did call me before arrival to let me know it would be a little cold, had lit the fire, but as the wood was also wet, it couldnt stay lit. The property manager had also brought in multiple space heaters to warm the house (which of course was a good temporary solution), but when you turned on the light in the kitchen or bathroom - it blew the fusebox, so it was either HEAT or LIGHT. This property should not have been rented in February - its a summer rental. I was offered other properties, but I felt If this was considered ok to rent, I was not willing to try another property and have yet another sleepless night of an already shortened vacation. We canceled our stay and am awaiting a full refund.

Can't say enough nice things about the folks at Vacas who arranged our stay. We originally rented a smaller house in the same area but the day of check in they let us know there were some issues. For the same cost they offered us a bigger house and $100 for dinner to check in a bit later. When the main road connecting our place to town was closed for a day, they gave me 10% off my next stay. The process was smooth and proactive and didn't affect our enjoyment at all!

Beautiful spot. We went all over the island and all agreed the private beach by the house was the best. We were the only ones on the beach each day that we went. There is a little walk down to the beach, it is steep, but short. Well worth the price. Four stars as the driveway light was burned out and we arrived on a late ferry. The directions were very challenging to follow at night and we drove in circles for quite a while. The house was not readily visible with no lights on or street lights. The cleaning was ok, but not great. I probably would not have noticed if I wasn't playing on the floor with my baby.

Location is great if you want a remote getaway with private beach, everything else is a (short) drive away.
Great socialising areas in & out of the house. Good shower in the main bathroom. Could do with closer attention to cleaning & maintenance (replacing blown bulbs) as well as having a house instruction/guide book.
If you’re a sleeper affected by light the epic main bedroom windows without curtains might mean you need to bring a sleeping mask in the summer unless you want to get up at 04:30am.

The cabin was clean and tidy, had everything we needed. The location was in one of the most remote spots on Orcas Island, with some outstanding natural amenities right nearby. Worth a little extra drive, and it’s honestly not far from anything. Also, don’t miss dinner at Maria while you’re on Orcas!
