Waterfront Home - Watch a Sunset from the Hot Tub, Private Beach, Mooring Buoy

Kick off your island adventure in style — whether you hop on a scenic Kenmore Air seaplane or enjoy the breathtaking views from the Washington State Ferry, your getaway begins with unforgettable views. Once you arrive in Friday Harbor, you’re just 10 miles from your private waterfront cabin retreat.

This isn’t just a cabin — it’s your cozy, adventure-ready basecamp with all the comforts of home and fun extras you didn’t know you needed. The fully updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a wine cooler, and everything you need to cook, sip, and savor — whether you’re whipping up a pancake breakfast or a seafood feast with the day’s local catch. The dining table seats the whole crew for meals, games, or late-night chats.

Step outside and let the magic of the island surround you. Stroll down to the beach where seals, otters, and bald eagles are regular guests. Play yard games with the kids, fire up the grill for a sunset BBQ, or soak in the hot tub while watching boats drift past and the sun set over Henry Island.

Rainy day? No problem. Cozy up inside with a good book, start a movie night with your favorite DVDs (TV is DVD-only), or gather around the large table for games, puzzles and laughter. Big windows wrap the space in natural light and frame unforgettable views of the bay — so you never miss a moment of island beauty.

When you’re ready to explore, San Juan Island is packed with things to do! Zip through the treetops at San Juan Zip Tour, stroll the fragrant fields at Pelindaba Lavender Farm, or dive into local history at the Whale Museum or English Camp. Sip craft spirits at the San Juan Island Distillery, spot orcas from Lime Kiln Point State Park, or saddle up at Horseshu Guest Ranch. Want more? Try whale watching, sailing, kayaking, bocce ball, or just wandering the charming shops and cafes in Friday Harbor.

Whether you’re here to unplug and unwind, explore and adventure, or a little of both — this is your place to do it all.

Please note: The TV is for DVD use only — bring your favorite flicks!

Dreamy!

Upon pulling into the property, you are immediately hit with a sense of peace and tranquility! Nothing could beat sitting in that hot tub over looking the ocean. Except when magical sunsets, fox visitors, and a warm cozy bed are included as well! We loved our stay so much, our kids were very sad to leave!

A Gem

We enjoyed this place. My husband brought his portable kayak and had a great time on the water. I loved the swing! We enjoyed cooking in the well stocked kitchen. The sun room area made you feel like you were outside among the trees. A memorable time.

Great home base for island adventures

The property is beautiful and just what we were looking for in a vacation spot. Close to trails and an amazing sculpture park we explored over 2 days, a close drive to the ferry terminal and whale watching expeditions. We hit a snag with the property being ready, but the owner was very easy to communicate with and fixed the issue quickly and to our satisfaction. We would not hesitate to stay here again and hope to do so again. We would highly recommend this property as a serene island location to enjoy time in nature!

Super private and dreamy!

Wow, the house and views were even better than the photos. It’s so private and beautiful, and all the big windows allowed us to bird watch all day long. The hot tub was excellent. Our *only* constructive feedback would be to bring in more nonstick pans for cooking.
