A cozy and cute cottage in a very quiet place for rest and recreations.

Everything was delightful and exceptional decor. Would recommend turning up the heat on very cold temperatures prior to guests arrival. The staff tried to be helpful but timing was difficult due to Friday night activities. Very cold for the first three hours.

A lovely quiet cabin, well-equip and lovingly decorated. We especially enjoyed the porch with so many birds joining our morning coffee. Also the mile walk to the beach is a treat--only the first part is on the road, it quickly connects with a lovely hike through cedars, firs and hemlocks. Don't miss it!

This cute little cottage was perfect for an extended NYE weekend. It was very cozy, clean and very chic and rustic. I also loved that it was so quiet and peaceful in the hidden forest. I only wish they would’ve had champagne flutes and perhaps a bit more comfortable bed and pillows and a dishwasher, but none of it was a deal breaker. It was a superb experience and we even got a complimentary early check-in! I very much recommend this place, and would go back in the summer!

We were here on a gorgeous Fall October weekend for a wedding on Cama beach. This was a lovely, clean cottage nearby and near the water ( for walks with the dog) with a loft bed and all amenities ( didn’t see a dishwasher or pods for laundry)

Nice cabin on the quaint Camano Island. State Parks and Preserves are great places to get out walking and enjoying fantastic views. All this without having to deal with the understaffed Washington State Ferry system!

We had a lovely week on Camano. The cabin was as advertised and well maintained. Check in was seamless and there isn’t a giant list of chores to do to check out, which was appreciated. The only slight quibble we had was with the somewhat ungenerous policy of giving a tiny bit of dish soap and precisely 2 rolls of toilet paper and 2 laundry soap pods. They make it clear that you have to stock household items yourself. And compared to most houses I’ve rented, they provide you very little in the way of household items. We had to buy everything from cooking oils to salt and pepper. Most places will usually have more of the basics available. And the house could use more board games and the like. Also confusing because the house instructions mentioned a dishwasher but this particular cabin doesn’t have one. But these are minor quibbles. Overall we had a great time. Saw rabbits and deer in the yard at dawn and dusk. Made cozy fires at night and had dinner on the deck. A very peaceful place.

This vacation home is surrounded by beautiful trees in a very quiet neighborhood. The are plenty of comfy places to sit inside and out with a book. We loved all the deck space around the house. Sadly, getting to the beach requires a car, and going for a walk isn't very relaxing, with no sidewalks and narrow shoulders. I recommend this place if you're looking for a place to stay in and chill.

We enjoyed our brief stay at this lovely cabin. Very quiet and private. Very close to the 2 state parks on the island, which were fun to explore.

picture doesn't justly represent the cabin
The picture makes the cabin look small and somewhat convoluted - it is not either. The projection with the separate roof is a charming dining area with windows on three sides. The cabin itself is very spacious for two people and well-appointed for extended stay. There was nothing that we were wanting throughout our stay.
The area around the cabin is beautiful with mature trees and abundant wildlife, we particularly appreciated the red fox and deer. Hikes from this location are extensive, particularly with a connector trail to Cama Beach State Park located a short distance down the road. The coffee shop at Cama Beach is worth the walk. We also found everything that we could possibly imagine needing foodwise at the Whole Foodsesque IGA, located ten minutes away at Camano Plaza.
Our compliments to the care-crew, the place was impeccable and the special holiday treats left for us and our two dogs were
thoughtful and much appreciated. Becca also texted us to make sure that everything was alright, we had unusual snowfall throughout our stay, and even offered to show up and shovel the one-hundred-yard driveway before our departure, something our four-wheel drive vehicle did not need, but the offer was above and beyond the call of duty.
Thumbs up all around!

The writers cottage had everything I'd expect - cozy setting, comfortable space, privacy, essentials stocked. There's not much in the way of activities in the property, but there's plenty close by and our purpose was to be intentionally inactive. It's a lovely place for a break.

My husband and I spent a couple quiet and enjoyable days at this cute and cozy cabin in the woods. It was a chance for us to have a restful getaway before the busy Holiday Season.
The place is clean, comfortable, charming, and just as described in the listing. The weather even cooperated! We are already hoping to return.

Lovely cabin, perfect for a couple. The weather had turned cold, so the cabin was chilly and took a while to heat up. We weren’t familiar with TV, so didn’t have much reception.

Came up for my sisters wedding. Was very happy to not have to stay at the venue. I did notice the sink in the bathroom leaked a bit. I also didn’t see the other channel changer. No big deal. Just didn’t want to get blamed.

This was a very comfortable place to stay. Everything was easy to find (light switches are labeled- that was the best) and it was well stocked with everything I needed. The only downfall was the bed- it really needs to be upgraded to a regular mattress and box spring. I wanted to recommend the place to my mom and her husband but the bed would not be good enough for them unfortunately. Everything else is amazing!
