The property was very private and you could see the stars at night. No light pollution. The hosts were friendly.

This was exactly as described! Close to everything but peaceful and private. Our hosts were charming and helpful. I can’t think of a better place to have stayed while visiting this amazing island. My extensive research paid off because this place was perfect! Incredibly clean, comfy bed and great space to come to at the end of the day!

We can't say enough nice things about this place and our hosts Marcy and Ralph. The guest house itself was clean, spacious, and luxurious. We felt at home from the moment we stepped in the door. The property is in the middle of the woods, so it was wonderfully quiet. I enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen, and my husband and I enjoyed eating outside on the deck overlooking the woods and peek-a-boo views of the ocean. The guest house is only a couple of miles from Friday Harbor, so it was easy to drive into town and dine at a restaurant or get on a whale watching tour. The island is small enough that we could drive anywhere in less than half an hour. Our hosts Marcy and Ralph were respectful of our privacy, but, by the time we left, we felt like they had become wonderful friends. We found out that the guest house was decorated with furniture and furnishings from Marcy's mother, which gave the home an especially warm, personal feel. My husband and I did not want to leave when the week was over, and we are already dreaming of taking another vacation here!

It was exactly as listed. Very comfortable with great amenities.

A beautiful, impeccably kept guesthouse located in a lovely forest overlooking a small lake and the ocean beyond. The house is surrounded by a beautiful garden kept by two very gracious hosts (and their small terrier, Sophie). Every day, as I looked out the large picture windows or walking on the deck outside, I felt that I was living in a picture postcard or travel brochure.
My only suggestion for improvement would be for the property managers to improve the timeliness and consistency of their arrival and departure instructions. I had to call them to get the information. They also need to update the property description: e.g., availability of A/C and washer/dryer (both are present).

Our hosts were amazing and the time and TLC put into creating this amazing listing was clearly evident. Location was perfect, close to town nestled in the tall trees overlooking the water. Very private fully functional cottage just like home made it easy to cook in after visiting the local farmers market for fresh vegetables, pastries and the local catch of the day or close proximity to several five star restaurants with well stocked regional wines. We definitely fell in love with the San Juan islands and will be back.

Even better than advertised. The owners made us feel welcome and gave us complete privacy.

For being relatively close to Friday Harbor (just a 7 minute drive) this place was peaceful and quiet. We'd stay here again:)
5.0
My husband and I wanted to be a bit out of Friday Harbor - and this home exceeded our expectations. The home is nestled among pines with a gorgeous view to the bay. It is quiet and comfortable. The home is a mother-in-law suite immediately next door to the owners, who are both very welcoming and nice. It is maybe a 1 mile walk (or less) to the water’s edge.
The home itself is very clean, with a large master bedroom, cozy living room, and good size kitchen/dining room. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and cookware, but you will need to make sure you bring the basics (like oil, tea, maybe some extra coffee). Our favorite spot was the deck overlooking the water and our second favorite was the living room with the two large, comfy loveseats.
We very much enjoyed our time here and would recommend.

Fantastic cottage. Perfect for two. Outside of Friday Harbor but not too far away from everything. Great location. We’ll equipped. Better kitchen than mine at home! Wonderful experience.
