This is a secluded and woodsy cabin, perfect for getting away from it all. The nearby bath house is a lovely way to start your day with a soak in the tub. Be prepared to not have cell service (screen shot the directions or you will get lost like I did), also bring a flashlight to get to / from the outhouse at night. If you like being out in the woods and away from it all this place is perfect for you! The wood stove makes for some great ambience. Bring games and puzzles and you'll have a lovely time.

Ravensong is quaint, quiet and affordable; just the right size for two wanting remoteness and quiet. The hosts are welcoming, attentive and helpful; their garden produce is delicious and plentiful. The bathhouse is clean and tidy. The outhouse is tidy but, it's an outhouse; you'll leave with a greater appreciation for flushing toilets. We appreciated Erin sharing some camp chairs with us for the deck. We do suggest bringing your own reclining camp chairs as the furniture in the cabin does not accommodate reclining.

Exactly what we were looking for on our trip in the PNW. Cozy, secluded, and fun!

Most peaceful place we have ever stayed--simply perfect. Plan to return in the future!

Erin was incredibly kind and available. He also provided us with eggs from his chickens free of charge. We had a wonderful stay and hope to return in the future.

Great little artist-style cottage tucked away off the main road, though not far from the main ferry terminal. Kitchen amenities were useful and bed upstairs was nice size (though I gave that to my mom; I slept downstairs with sleeping bag). Hoped for a peaceful getaway for my mother, but unfortunately this property wasn't her preference--and the rowdy neighbors partying all night long, hooting/shouting, and subwoofers clashed with our expectations (recognize this is out of their control; but worth nothing). Contacted host who also reported the noise complaint, but 11-11:30pm wasn't soon enough when we had an early rise planned. I would consider staying here again, but not with family.

This place was exactly what we were looking for! Erin was prompt getting back to us when we did have a couple questions. The cabin is not easy to find but that was part of the adventure. I would recommend this cabin for sure!!

We enjoyed the forest cabin, and our weekend on Orcas Island. The cabin is cozy inside, warming up quickly on a March evening with either the plug in heater or, the tiniest woodstove we have ever seen! Be prepared for a ladder climb to the comfortable bed up in the loft.

The cottage was exactly as described and very convenient to Deer Harbor and the west side of the island. It was very clean and comfortable. We had trouble communicating with Kathleen as her internet was down and there is no cell service at the house. We did not know the lack of internet in advance and this was problematic for us giving our work. That was our only complaint.

Great colorful cabin at Deer Harbor. We love the location next to the harbor and close to East Sound too. Would recommend to anyone looking for a nice stay at Orcas Island. Thanks!

The cottage is adorable and great for a couple, with a little peek-a-boo view of Deer Harbor. I found the location to be super convenient, about a 15/20 minute drive to Eastsound, where many of the island's shops and restaurants are. Friendly, helpful host. Recommended.

Kathleen's cottage was wonderful! Just a stone throw to Deer Harbor and a great view of the marina. We had a wonderful time!

Casa Crayola was very comfortable and the perfect size for two people wanting to escape to Orcas Island for a few days. The listing was pretty much what we anticipated and our host, Kathleen, was gracious, welcoming, and helpful in choosing what to do on our vacation. Thanks for that. I really enjoyed spending some time on the west side of the island and seeing sites (Deer Harbor, Orcas Island Pottery, the whole Crow Valley scene, etc.) that we had missed on our previous visits to the island. There is a good chance that we'll be back.

Nice neighborhood.

Very unique cottage with everything that you'd need for a pleasant stay. Nice location with a very scenic drive to Eastsound.

Kate was very friendly and informed us of the things we needed to know about our stay at her cottage. It was a very cute and private cottage setting and was a great place to stay in Deer Harbor. It was nice having a kitchen area to fix some of our own food and Kate gave us great recommendations for restaurants. It was a very relaxing stay!

The Resort us lovely, and Judy has done a wonderful job making the accommodations welcoming and homey. I appreciated the little touches...fresh flowers, snack bars, fresh fruit. This is a wonderful spot.

Judy was a great host and had a lovely peaceful room.

Wonderful place to stay! We had our own private bathroom and bedroom. The view was amazing and restaurant within walk distance was the awesome as well. Judy made it feel like a home we never wanted to leave thank you so much.

Judy was an amazing host. Her description of the place was spot on, she met us at the door and everything she describe was there and more. Hands down the best BNB experience we have ever had. Will do it again and again at this rate. The Rosario resort is right down the path and was an great place to secure a night cap. We saw the island in 2 days and enjoyed all of the exploration! Book a ferry early....don't wait.

Judy's place is fantastic! Very quiet, clean and has the perfect size for two people. And the view from the balcony is phenomenal! Her description how to find the place was great. Judy lives next door and when we got to the apartment she introduced herself and offered her help if we need anything. Before we got their we asked her about good places to rent kayaks on the island and instantly her daughter gave us a list of trips we can book. VERY HELPFUL! We loved the place and the island. Hopefully you too :-) Suzanne and Arne

My friend and I really enjoyed our stay at Judy's condo. The room was cute and comfortable and has a beautiful view of the pine trees and water. Judy provided a lot of nice extra touches like a coffee maker, fridge and microwave as well as snacks and drinks in the room. Orcas is a beautiful island and we found this to be a great home base during our short visit. It's close to Moran State Park, which is a must see, and the very nice town of East Sound. Also, the rest of our group who were sailing were able to dock at the Rosario Harbor right next to the condo which was a big plus for the two of us who did not want to sleep on the boat but wanted to be nearby our friend's and the boat.

Judy was very accommodating to the ferry schedule and our coming and going. The condo was just like it was described - the bed was comfortable, the view was fantastic and the whole vibe at the Rosario complex was fun & relaxing. The condo was well stocked with great attention paid to guest needs. We look forward to staying there again, and would definitely recommend it to friends.

Quiet location with a beautiful view. Great bed with a memory foam topper - very comfortable. Microwave was broken which was a disappointment.

Cozy cabana, beautiful grounds, and delightful hosts! The pool was fantastic with the perfect view of the water. We will definitely be back!

John and Chris are great hosts and made us feel completely welcome on this sprawling property. John showed us everything about the room we stayed in and even went as far as to run a hardwired internet line into the unit so that we could complete some work that needed a very steady internet connection. The pool and the hot tub were well maintained and we used both of them. We also enjoyed the plum and apple trees that had abundant fruits on them. John brought us some cut up pineapple when we were enjoying the patio and had some fruits picked and ready in the outdoor kitchen area - there was also an indoor kitchen area as well. We enjoyed our privacy at this more secluded part of the island with views of the marina and sound. Wildlife was abundant on the island and on our whale watching tour! I would definitely recommend this beautiful place and the hosts for there warm welcome.

Amazing hosts and location with an incredible view! Absolutely love this place ! One of the best spots on Orcas!

The Cabana is super cute! Small but perfect for a couple. The property is gorgeous, and very secluded. The cons for our stay were that the wifi signal was VERY weak, it was basically unusable when inside the cabana. Also, the hot tub was more of a warm tub - we couldn't get it to heat over 90 degrees, which wasn't warm enough in October. Chris and John weren't there which was kind of a bummer, but overall our stay was pleasant, and the accommodations were nice for the price.

The whole thing went above and beyond our expectations, really excellent. The grounds are beautiful, with a large garden, fruit trees, and a lawn with a wide-open view of the sound. The hot tub and the heated pool were great. They also have a rec room with a huge collection of random funny/interesting objects that John has collected over the years, as well as a high-end pool table. The cabana itself was spotless, the bed was quite comfortable, and the internet was working fine. Next to the cabana there is a beautiful outdoor kitchen with a gas grill and a fridge. One night we grilled a couple of sockeye fillets and ate next to the pool underneath a patio umbrella. This place has a pleasant tropical vibe, relaxing without coming off as cheesy. Location-wise, there is a very good restaurant a couple of blocks away, and the main town of Eastsound is a 10-minute drive. Chris & John were very friendly and happy to help out with recommendations for things to do and places to eat. They have three small, friendly dogs who mostly stayed inside the main house, though we received the occasional visit. The photos on Airbnb don't really do it justice, this is a fantastic rental. I'll be recommending it to friends and family.

We enjoyed our stay at the poolside cabana. The hot tub and pool with a spectacular view of the bay are amazing. The cabana is cozy with a comfortable bed. Chris and John were great hosts.

Wonderful accommodations, amazing view, hot tub and pool, fun and easy to use poolside kitchen. Perfect vacation spot. John and Chris were knowledgeable, welcoming and great hosts. Walk to the beach and kayak or hike Turtleback Mt, so easy and relaxing. Highly recommend!

Wow! Right out of the gate, let’s just say I can’t wait to go back. This was the first stop for my husband and I on our honeymoon and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The cabana is everything that’s advertised and more. It’s cozy, comfortable, and the view from the pool deck of the bay is beautiful. The clubhouse is super cool too, although we didn’t get much time to hang out there since we were exploring the island most of our stay. It’s a wonderful “home-away-from-home” to come back to after bouncing around Orcas all day, and Chris and John are excellent hosts. John met us as soon as we arrived, showed us around the grounds, and was more than accommodating with advice on local must-sees. They even left us some helpful maps and fliers in the cabana so we’d be able to find our way around without staring out our phones all day. We chatted with them a bit more on our second night and they are genuinely nice people with great energy. An extra bonus: they left us fresh, local coffee ground for a French press (provided), as well as oatmeal and tea. We thoroughly enjoyed the apples we picked right off their property's many apple trees. Sitting and watching the gorgeous sunset with a glass of wine, cheese, and fresh fruit was just bliss. We loved cooking in the outdoor kitchen (and wish we had our own). The one and only downside is that the shower IN the cabana is very small (tall people will have to crouch a bit) and there was not enough hot water for two showers back-to-back. There is another shower around the corner in the room that has the pool pump, etc., but, admittedly, there was a spider that disappeared quickly when I opened the curtain, and I was too chicken to shower in there. Most people without silly, irrational fears of spiders will be fine in this shower, which is a normal size! So, the small shower in the cabana is not an issue if you don't mind using the other shower. John did make sure to tell us about the other shower when we got there. The property is super close to Deer Harbor and the ferry, so in addition to being a lovely spot, it’s also convenient. Looking forward to booking our next trip to paradise at the poolside cabana!

The Walrus Room is very small. There isn't much room for suit cases/bags. There is a skylight directly above the bed without a shade, so if you like to sleep in you may want to inquire about one of the other two rooms. The bathroom is across the public hall. You will receive a key for it so you can keep your toiletries in there. The bathroom has a nice shower and pedistal sink. The host supplied earplugs . . . the walls are thin. The other guests were pretty quiet while we were there. The accommodations are pet friendly. The house has a great view of the water, is close to the ferry, and is clean. The host supplies a simple breakfast, which is more than other Airbnb places we stayed.

Great location with a beautiful view. Abe and Kate's place was clean and organized. Although we had leave early, everything Abbott the stay was designed to be amenable to guests, with even motion - sensing lights of you had to get up to use the bathroom in the night.

We feel lucky to have found this incredible gem! Kate and Abe are the best hosts and we would definitely stay there again. The area was absolutely stunning! We couldn't have asked for a better time on Orcas.

Their place is one of the most beautiful, clean, spacious, lovely places you'll visit. Cate and Abe are respectful sweet hosts that have a great system going, very chill and accommodating and they make the best breakfasts for their guests! The view is breathtaking from their house porch. I highly recommend you stay here. Very dog and family friendly!

Simple and just wright for 1-2 people. Breakfast was good and everything was nice.

We loved our stay at Abe and Kate's place! It was beautiful, clean, comfortable, right on the water,... everything that we wanted and more! We would definitely stay again and wish we could have stayed longer this visit. Abe and Kate were also so kind as to provide us with an early breakfast before the 7:15am ferry. Thank you so much for that great surprise!

Great stay in the quiet bnb. The light breakfast and coffee was lovely.

Kate & Abe were terrific hosts. This spot is about a 10-12 min drive from East Sound town. Continental breakfast was very nice. Loved the smoothie Kate made and the banana loaf! Yogurt and fixings were nice too. Dog friendly spot which was perfect for us. Clean and cosy!!

Enjoyed our stay. Very cozy cabin with plenty of space for two adults.

My sister and her 14 year old daughter and I went up to the Gnome House this weekend! After a long drive/ferry ride, it was so nice to walk into the house and feel instantly at home. They had beautiful music playing and the instructions were laid out for everything along with things to do for the weekend (big bird/wildlife festival). So Meg and Bob made us feel at home nearly instantly. The house is amazing - so incredibly cute!!! As described, it is a gnome house and is so intricately built. Everything about it is cute! The kitchen is well stocked, the fireplace worked magically and the beds were very comfortable. We did tell each other ghost stories that (URL HIDDEN) we may have all slept in the same room upstairs :). We used the hot tub once, but really we were so busy with things on Orcas we didn't have much time to use the fire pit. Hot tub was easy to use. Kids love this place too - the alcove where the table in was amazing. Finally - the sunlight coming in the bedroom on Sunday was so beautiful. I didn't want to leave.

Had an absolutely lovely stay at the Gnome House! Bob and Meg have a created a really unique experience that oozes charm and comfort. Massive ceilings, delightful wood burning stove, a sleigh bed and a nook bed as well! The house was well stocked with everything you could need. Clean and well appointed. We took a walk up the hill behind the house for a marvelous view and the resident cat followed us! Made for a great little hike. If you get the chance stay at the Gnome House for a one of a kind experience.

Our stay at the Gnome House was amazing. The house is incredible and a testament to Bob's talent. We had some friends vacationing in the area and our hosts very graciously let us have them over for a night. We'd love to come back! Highly recommended for anyone staying on Orcas Island.

Lovely little cottage tucked away. Not much in the way of shopping, but it is pretty near the DH marina if you come in by float plane.

We arrived in the evening and the home was a bit chilly, so we had to start a fire, which would normally not be a big deal but we were exhausted from traveling all day and there was no paper or kindling. We later found out there was a thermostat but the home instructions only mentioned the fireplace. The place was very charming as the pictures showed, but also very rustic. When I say rustic, I mean I think the place has the same bedding, furniture etc that it had in 1986 when it was built. We had an overall good experience, our son loved the place. You are staying on someones farm, which sounds charming and is to a degree, but you are also walking around junk piles accumulated over 40 years. It feels like a long drive to town (Eastsound). We are not overly picky people but we felt a little disappointed with the overall experience. The surprise $40 tax bill on arrival was rude, that should be disclosed with the rates. Next time we will likely just stay in town.

The Gnome House was wonderful and ready for us when we arrived. It was exactly what we expected and a little more. We didn't realized the second bedroom was in a cute cubby hole. We almost fought over who would stay in it because it was so adorable w/ a full bed! Lots of special touches in the gnome house that make it feel like you're a gnome or hobbit! We hope to visit it again! The hosts were great and weren't intrusive at all. We just met Meg when we were leaving and she was very sweet.

Orcas Island was of the most beautiful places I have ever been, and the Gnome House was the perfect place to stay. Bob and Meg were very helpful and accommodating. Absolutely magical experience!

Had a lovely stay again in the yurt!

Awesome place!!!!

The host canceled this reservation 16 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Beautiful location and everyone onsite was delightful and welcoming. Host was agreeable to requests and provided more bedding to be kind. Garden was beautiful! If looking for a quiet, peaceful and serene location it is sure to be found here.

The yurt is brand new, beautifully crafted, and wonderfully spacious. A palace among yurts! Ashley was there to greet us at her bustling collective farm, very warm and gracious. The locale is only 10 minutes or so from Eastsound, close to hikes on Turtleback Mt. and Orcas Winery, and across the road from an alpaca farm--a great place to stay on Orcas.

What a sweet little set up! A warm, cozy shelter to return to at the end of a couple of rainy days on the island. Ashley & Eric were very welcoming and accommodating and made everything just right. The yurt and the farm are beautiful. Thank you for your hospitality!

The yurt is comfortable and simply and tastefully appointed. Loved being less than 10 minutes from the main town and the ferry in either direction. The farm was a wonderful place to just be and read. Be sure you clarify with the host whether you are allowed to use the Summer Kitchen since we were not.

Cool place! Nice hosts and peaceful!

Bob & Kandis welcomed us when we arrived and gave us a tour of their property and were very generous w/ their fruit from their orchard. We found the cottage comfortable and cozy and when we lost electricity in part of the cottage, Bob & Kandis had it fixed the next day and all was good!

Very peaceful and serene setting, we had a great time. And thanks so much for the plums!

Bob & Kandis were wonderful hosts. The grounds surrounding the place were filled with apples, plums and pear trees. And there's a quaint and serene pond at the rear of the property with a picnic table that my parents took advantage of for breakfast one morning.

The hosts were very welcoming. They have a beautiful property. I enjoyed walking around and picking fruit trees every morning. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. It was safe and comfortable for us.

Bob and Kandis were wonderful hosts. They were welcoming and attentive to our questions about activities offered in the area. Their hospitality was exceptional.

What a lovely spot and such gracious, friendly hosts! The cottage was exactly as described and was a perfect launching spot for all of our island jaunts. What was especially unique was the orchard and the gentle grassy knoll behind the cabin. We spent the days near the water then came home to a farm-like feeling each night to watch the stars from the porch. Both Bob and Kandis reached out to us over the weekend to ensure that we were comfortable and the added bonus of the fresh picked fruit Bob offered to us made our stay very special. Any guest staying here will feel cozy and comfortable and well taken care of!

Bob and Kandis were kind and gracious hosts. They took the time to show us all of the amenities of the cottage, as well as their beautiful property, where their fruit trees were in full bloom. The cottage is in a great location, close to the ferry, Eastsound, and Deer Harbor. The beds were comfy, and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals, which we enjoyed on the front porch. I look forward to returning this summer, to try the fruit and see these lovely folks again. You should do the same!

What a beautiful place and nice hosts. The cottage is very cute and extremely good equipped with everything you need (and even more). If you are searching for a quiet and peaceful place without cell phone service, but still very close to the sea, hiking trails, grocery stores and downtown Eastsound, this is the perfect place to stay on Orcas.

My boyfriend and I had such a wonderful weekend staying at cozy cottage! It was perfect - everything we needed and so much charm. It was very easy to communicate with our hosts prior to our trip, and once we arrived Jeannie and Arthur made us feel so welcomed. I felt perfectly set-up for a relaxing, beautiful weekend on Orcas Island!

Jeannie was great! Very knowledgeable about the island and happy to help us out planning a few activities. Her home was clean and very comfortable. My sister and I would love to stay here again!

Our stay on Orcas Island was great and this cabin was a large part of it. It is in a wonderfully wooded and quiet part of the island (though that probably describes most of the island). Arthur was there when we arrived to explain everything about the cabin and the island, and brought us apples from the garden. After that, we didn't run into Jeannie and Arthur, but we didn't need anything. The cabin is beautiful and well maintained - clean and stocked with essentials. It was very cozy and warm to stay in the morning it poured rain. Without a stove and oven, the cooking options are limited, but there were plenty of great restaurants and the food co-op. The only issue we had with being on Orcas Island was getting off of it. One of the main ferries was out of service the day we were leaving, which meant the ferry schedule was off and no one knew when the next boat would come. I let Jeannie know and she showed concern and offered help. Luckily, we got home that day and didn't need the help. But it was really comforting that she had our back.

Amazing little cottage. New construction with vintage cabin charm. Super cute details and extremely comfortable. A perfect bed to land on after a day of exploring the island. Set in a pristine and quiet area with only deer and occasional bunnies running around. Hospitable hosts ready to help when needed but non-intrusive. Plan on driving to town for great shopping, food and sight seeing. Would definitely come back to this spot!

Jeannie and Arthur were lovely hosts. They made us feel so at home and welcome in the cozy cottage. We never wanted to leave. They were there for anything we may have needed and were always there for information, suggestions, or just great conversation. We would love to go back and I would recommend everyone stay at this cozy cottage. It is a slice of heaven on Orcas Island.

Great little cabin with lots of hospitality from Jeannie and her husband. I highly recommend the cabin and would stay there again.

I cannot say how much I enjoyed my visit to Jeannie and Arthur's cosy cottage! The space itself was wonderful, and the surroundings were just lovely, as an outdoors enthusiast. Both Jeannie and Arthur were accommodating around my early arrival, and offered great suggestions for making the most of my visit to the island. This is a wonderful spot to getaway from the noise, and experience the beauty of Orcas.

The stay at Orcas Island with Jeannine and Arthur was fantastic. The cabin was clean, comfortable and had everything that was needed. They even had apples from their orchard, which was so nice. They were extremely helpful and shared places to see and restaurants to eat at. We will definitely be back!

Everything from start to finish was smooth and easy. Rebecca was more than welcoming and was always quick to respond for whatever we needed. The cottage is BEAUTIFUL! It is literally right next to the ferry port and it is a couple minutes walk. The location is literally perfect. You have a restaurant, cafe, grocery store, and gift shop right next door. But the best part of it was the view! This cottage has the number one perfect view of the sound. Rebecca provides a lot of things for you in the cottage and lots of information about the island and activities. I highly recommend staying her if she's not booked. We had an amazing time here and enjoyed the relaxation and serenity (hence the name) that this offers. If we come back to visit the islands we are staying here.

A great spot to watch the ferries come and go!

The Cottages on Orcas Island are amazing! We were greeted by Rebecca with a sign with our names on it and taken right into our cottage. Rebecca is so knowledgable about the island and the best places to go and see. She gave us lots of really helpful information that really helped us maximize our time on the island. The cottage itself was great. Fully stocked with everything you could need (I always forget to bring a wine opener, bang it was already there) for a weekend. I highly recommend this place and will absolutely be returning.

The view was incredible! Rebecca was very thorough in explaining every little detail about our cottage and the amenities around Orcas Island. Thank you Rebecca for making our 22nd anniversary a memorable one! We will be back!

Your place was absolutely awesome Rebecca! Thanks for all you did for us and helping with the Ferry on Friday night as well. We so enjoyed your little hideaway right in village. Everything was so cozy. The corner store had great sandwiches and carrot cake ! Got coffee from the hotel before leaving on Ferry. Wished we could stay all week.

It was very cute! Rebecca was friendly and accommodating. The restaurants and store nearby closed a bit early, but they were great to visit when they were open. Watching the ferry come and go from the window seat was awesome.

喜欢能够在凉亭坐下来,在渡轮和夕阳看出来!

丽贝卡是如此的热情和乐于助人!这间小屋是如此可爱,舒适和所有她的个人风格的让我们感到如此的欢迎。她回答我们所有的问题,并给了我们远足和吃饭的地方大的建议。我们肯定会再回来,并会极力推荐这间小屋为寻找留在逆戟鲸的地方!

The host canceled this reservation 2 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

An incredible location with great views and a great host. Ellen showed us around and gave a guided tour around the area, with Farley (her dog). She had a hand drawn map of the location, since the roads are not on (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN). The place is a lovely house, was well stocked and comfortable. My only regret is that I stayed just 1 night.

Beautiful craft built house deep in the woods with lots of private trails to hike. So glad Ellen let my parents and I stay in her home for the weekend.

Communication and directions to the cottage we're excellent before hand. The place was as described and Ellen and her dog were there to greet us upon arrival. Everything one could need seemed to be in the house and Ellen was kind a laid back and would have surely been happy to help if we needed anything additionally. The location on the end of a private dirt road is phenomenal with a beautiful garden that ellen invited us to glean from if we wished and direct access to turtleback mtn. literally out the front door: We enjoyed a short (~3miles round trip) but at times vigorous hike with fantastic views. The house was very cozy with a woodstove and ample space for everyone. The loft has a real nice bed. The 2nd bedroom is a pullout full or queen sofa bed with a nice mattress and in the living room there is a very sleepable couch for an individual. Had we been staying for longer than a couple days we would have seeked to clarify with Ellen which of the pantry items were up for grabs. There was some debate within our party about this as many properties like this are strictly Airbnb and anything in them is up for grabs whereas this property is clearly Ellen's home that she graciously vacates for her guests. The positive side of this was that we really weren't wanting for anything and actually ended up over-provisioned. I would stay here again. Orcas island is a special place. Definitely hope to return one day for more than a couple days. Thank you Ellen for sharing your little slice of paradise.

Ellen was absolutely fantastic....great communication, windfall place and shared her awesome dog (Farley) with us. Hard to find a more relaxing and comfortable place than this.

Ellen was there to greet us when we arrived to her beautiful home in the forest. Her place is comfortable, clean, and has everything you need. It also is so quiet and beautiful, we felt very fortunate to be there. It was lovely to take walks around Ellen's home and she provided us a map of area so we could find our way back. Our dog, Charlie, was so happy to roam around with us. Her garden is amazing. We will be back!

Ellen was a great host. The home is warm and inviting. The location is quiet and peaceful. We would be happy to return for a stay the next time we visit Orcas Islands.

Ellen was a wonderful host, very friendly and helpful. We loved our stay on Orcas in the cabin in the woods. It was perfectly quiet and peaceful. The cabin was just as described and was very comfortable for us. We would definitely stay there again if we re-visit Orcas.

This adorable waterfront cottage was exactly what we were looking for over the 4th of July weekend! It was a peaceful, unplugged experience and the cottage is full of the family's history. We felt so lucky to be allowed to enjoy this charming getaway. The home is full of plenty of books to read and puzzles for a rainy day or a lazy afternoon. The kitchen is well-stocked for any summer cooking you may want to do, and having to bring your own potable water was not an issue. Highly recommend the cottage and we hope to be back in the future!

We had such a nice time at Caitlin's cabin on Orcas. Caitlin was very communicative and was happy to answer all of our questions. The beds are so comfortable, the kitchen is very well stocked and the views are amazing! Our favorite parts were looking out the windows from the comfy beds in the sun-room and sitting out on the deck. The cabin is not too far of a drive from the ferry or from Eastsound. I would definitely recommend this cabin to anyone interested in heading out to Orcas for a relaxing weekend.

We loved every minute of our stay and truly look forward to making plans to return. Thank you for sharing this lovely place with us for three tranquil days. We will return!

It is located at the tip and on a private road on a dead end, it was perfect! We loved the cottage, it was quaint. The history was great and the view was beautiful.

This cottage was beautiful! We had a great time and the only problem we had was that we were so happy there we didn't want to explore the rest of the island. We even saw seals, otters and a dolphin in the waters out the front. If you're visiting in summer, take note that there's no curtains on the windows of the sunroom, so you might be woken early by the sun.

This property is a dream. Wonderfully private with stunning views in every direction. The house itself is adorable and totally stocked with whatever you might need. We had a lovely and relaxing time and will definitely be visiting again.

I'm relatively well-traveled and this is, without exaggeration my favorite place I've ever been. Small cozy family cottage right on the water. From the cottage itself we could see bald eagles, hummingbirds, otters, seals, and more. Not too far of a drive to Eastsound, where there are ample groceries available to cook in the well-stoked kitchen. Incredibly grateful that this family home has been made available to guests.

Our visit to the 1940's Orca's Waterfront Cottage was spectacular! From the time we arrived to the time we left we didn't want to leave. The house is in well order, had every amenity one would need, the house was comfortable and inviting and the view was amazing on the porch and every window had it's own different view! It was quite and very relaxing and could be a romantic getaway for a honeymoon couple, Anniversary, or whatever the occasion! We enjoyed the restaurants in town and the shopping was great too. We will diffidently be back and if you're looking for less people, quite time and a beautiful island getaway...this is the place for you! Thank you again for a lovely vacation! It definitely left a special place in my heart!

Suzanne nous a très bien accueillis. Elle a eu la gentillesse de nous prévenir dès que la chambre fût prête. La description du logement correspondait à ce qui a été décrit avec de nombreuses attentions comme entre autres les fruits, le granola, le chocolat. Suzanne nous a aussi donné de nombreux conseils sur les activités dans l'île et plus paticulièrement dans le parc. Un séjour donc réussi sur Orcas.

Our stay at the Harper House was perfect for our short anniversary trip! The hosts were very generous in sharing their home and treats like cider, jerky, and smoked salmon (which was out of this world.) The suite was private, clean, and quiet! Everything that could have been thought of was provided for us! Tillamook yogurt with homemade granola, coffee and milk, shampoo and conditioner, clean towels, etc. We wanted to spend as much time as we could exploring the island and the location of the house was perfectly situated in the middle of the island. After a long day of hiking, the outdoor shower really hit the spot! The only complaint for us was that we wish our stay was longer. We hope to return to the Harper House in the near future!

We loved our stay at Harper House! The space is really comfortable and private, and John and Suzanne's location is super convenient for exploring Orcas and enjoying the amenities of East Sound. Arne was skeptical of the outdoor shower, but we both LOVED it - so refreshing on a warm Saturday afternoon! We would love to return, and will take time next visit to enjoy the fire pit!

Our trip was lovely. I really didn't want to leave. The house was cozy and cute with an amazing bath and lovely outdoor shower. My parents were visiting from Minnesota and I brought them here and they thought it was beautiful and felt more relaxed than they had in years. Suzanne was a great host and a lovely person. I would highly recommend staying here.

The location was terrific, just five minutes outside of Eastsound, making it easy to get back and forth. Suzanne was welcoming even before we arrived offering advice about what hikes to take. The room itself was comfortable and it was nice having both the bedroom and sitting room. As advertised, the outside shower, was really terrific. We were very pleased with Harper house.

Our Orcas Island trip was a delight from start to finish. Suzanne provided a wealth of information before we left about practical things like the hill approaching the property (we were on bikes) to Island events we should check out, including a Burlesque show. The Harper House Suite was just what we needed. Cozy and comfortable with games to play and coffee to drink. The weekend was capped off with fresh dungeness crab for our ferry ride home. Crab has never tasted so good! Thanks Suzanne

I had a fabulous time at Harper House. The space was even better than I expected. We loved the fire pit and the outdoor shower. Suzanne was a gracious host and so helpful. We can't wait to come back!

We arrived just perfect. The stays were very relaxing and my daughter love it. Susanne & John are most welcome host, we were so lucky to stay with them.

Todd was very nice and it is a great studio place to stay while on Orcas Island. Will recommend to our friends and family!

Todd has a great little guest house on a gorgeous property. The guest house has everything you need including a big slow cooker that works as a replacement for an oven. Todd and his puppy were very welcoming and made us fee at home. The bed was comfortable and the place was warm. Thanks again!

A lovely peaceful retreat tucked away from the tourist areas but close enough to be easily accessible to everything. Well equipped kitchen and cosy studio surrounded by woods. Really enjoyed our stay and would visit again. The bed was very comfortable. Todd was a lovely host, but we were out a lot so did not see much of him.

We arrived on the late ferry and first approached the studio in the dark. It was a cozy relief to this tired mama and her two young children. The beds were comfy and we fell right to sleep only to wake to a forest wonderland. The studio is in a beautiful setting. Quiet with a lovely shady spot perfect for our picnic lunch on our first full day. My kids loved Cash and asked for him every morning. Todd was informative and very, very nice making sure we had what we needed and pointing us in the proper direction for the wedding events we were attending over the weekend. It's about five minutes from the ferry landing and twenty from Eastsound. We can't wait to visit again!

I couldn't have been happier with my visit to Orcas. The studio is truly lovely--cozy, warm and beautifully furnished, with natural light, art, and a shelf full of interesting books. Todd warmly welcomed me and my dog, took us on a walk in the "neighborhood," provided hiking recommendations, and even shared some homemade chicken soup on a rainy evening. Also, the bed is incredibly comfortable! I hope to return.

This was booked on my husband's account. I came to Orcas with a dear friend and we wanted to reconnect. The setting was tranquil (just what we wanted) and although a bit small (but as described) , the accommodations were perfect for what we wanted. We enjoyed our visit to the island and learning about Todd's creative art passion as a sculptor. What a great sculpture garden to enjoy evening wine and cheese in the Adirondack chairs! Very much Recommended. Fredia

Todd's studio was a welcome stay after a long adventure filled week. Both Todd and his canine cohost made us feel most welcome. His cohost, Cash stayed until he was certain that we were all settled in. Loved the tranquil setting in the forest. Studio was comfortable and had everything we needed had we been able to stay longer. Freshly ground coffee beans a real treat!

Todd's studio / guesthouse was a great place to stay on Orcas Island. The place was clean and stocked with all the necessities for an overnight stop. Also, Todd (and his dog) were very friendly and inviting. My only caution is there is limited-to-no mobile reception on much of Orcas Island so make sure you pre-load a map and read Todd's directions very carefully!

We had a wonderful stay at Miriam's place. Her house is big, comfortable, immaculate, very well equipped and inviting. She waited for us with fresh flowers and home made goodies. So kind. We were delighted by the nature around us and the peacefulness. We picked the perfect home and place to spend Mother's day. Orcas is magical. Looking forward to our next visit! Thank you Miriam!

We loved staying here! Beautiful location and the perfect space to enjoy some relaxing time on the island. Miriam is a wonderful host and communicator and the space is so clean and cozy.

If you've been using Airbnb for a while, you've inevitably encountered those places where noone actually lives—sparse furnishings, bare-bones Ikea kitchen, the lot. La Maisonette is the absolute antithesis of such "homes"! Miriam is such a kind and thoughtful host, & that's reflected in little ways all over this beautiful cottage: There are plenty of dishes, kitchen equipment, & sundries; there are more than enough linens; there are even tissue boxes in nearly every room (if you, too, have year-round allergies, you know what a difference that makes). Add all this to an absolutely beautiful setting—views, wildlife, seclusion—& you have a really wonderful place to stay. We were sorry to leave!

What a beautiful space! Miriam and Tom were wonderful hosts, and have a very well-equipped kitchen that had everything we needed for cooking daily. We travelled with our 11 month old son, and this space was fairly child-proof for a crawling/standing kiddo. We spent lots of time watching the hummingbirds and the mountains on the deck. Communication before and during our stay was kind and thoughtful, including Miriam sharing ideas for where our son could sleep and have his diaper changed. I sincerely hope we find our way back here someday.

The cottage was picture perfect, maybe even more so than what we saw online. It was a perfect place and to stay and perfect size for our family of 3. Having a kitchen and a washer/dryer, especially with 4 year old was terrific. Miriam was incredibly welcoming and we would recommend this place to anyone and everyone.

We had the most lovely stay here. The cabin is clean, quiet, well equipped, and has a great deck with views of the Puget Sound and Olympic mountains. Miriam accommodated a late check in and greeted us warmly. She even left us fresh flowers, banana bread, and cookies. We had a great weekend!

Miriam was great. Accommodations were as described. A great little getaway.

Miriam's place is amazing. The cottage is perfect for a small family or couple. The view of the olympics is great! The place is very clean and well stocked. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a great meal! Miriam and her husband are excellent hosts, they are a wealth of information and give space when you want it!
