Shore Thing Retreat



The Space:

Shore Thing Retreat is a beautiful waterfront escape on Orcas Island, designed for easy, restorative days by the sea—and yes, it’s dog-friendly. Tucked along a scenic stretch between the ferry landing and the charming village of Eastsound, the home feels private and peaceful while remaining close to restaurants, shops, and island adventures. Clean, modern finishes blend with cozy Pacific Northwest touches to create a calm, welcoming atmosphere. From the moment you arrive, the space feels open, restful, and made for unwinding.



Each of the three thoughtfully designed bedrooms features its own bathroom, offering flexible accommodations for families, couples, or small groups who want both comfort and privacy. Shared spaces invite connection—whether it’s movie nights, board games, or simply curling up with a good book.



Outside, a private hot tub and cabana turn evenings into a soak-and-stargaze ritual. Unwind after a day exploring Moran State Park or paddling the Salish Sea, surrounded by fresh ocean air and rustling trees. With minimal light pollution, the night sky becomes part of the experience. Prefer to stay dry? The expansive back deck offers loungers and a large outdoor sofa, perfect for relaxing afternoons. For a little friendly competition, enjoy ping pong on the front porch or set up a game of cornhole on the lawn.



Bring the whole crew—dogs included. From the off-leash dog park in town to scenic shoreline walks and pine-lined trails, Orcas Island offers plenty of ways to explore together. Then return to Shore Thing Retreat, where both people and pups can settle in and relax.
