The bunkhouse was nice for the grandparents to find a quiet spot. The house was clean and well-maintained. Responsiveness by the property management to questions was excellent. Overall, this was a nice visit. ##### Karen A. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rebecca C. 4 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Tranquil Lovely view in a very peaceful location. Kitchen is fully stocked and all appliances are high end. Beds are comfortable and bathroom is nice. Home is updated but it is an older home, so those sensitive to humidity might not feel comfortable. Convenient to Doe Bay, Buck Bay and Moran and about 20 minutes drive to Eastsound. No beach access and aside from the gravel roads, no real walking area. Lots of deer! ##### Rebecca C.

Actually, there are two homes, and with 8 people, the extra space was nice (the guest home had a queen bed and full bath). All the beds were ultra comfortable, the house was very clean, and the kitchen well stocked.The folks at the management company were great and sent us everything we needed to know about the house ahead of time. The only downside to our stay was that the internet wasn’t working, but we were there to eacape, so we didn’t really need to call the property manager to get it working. ##### Dave H. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Laura B. 8 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy #### Problems Several blinds did not work. Lots of rules ,lots of donts. Main bath sink drain very slowly. ##### Laura B. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Irene K., Mercer Island 11 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location #### Quaint cabin Orcas Island is always wonderful and this past trip didn’t disappoint. Our ferry was delayed 5 hours so we arrived on Orcas late at night. The directions to the house were difficult for us to follow and GPS took us down the wrong road. When we finally located the house there were multiple lock boxes and we had a struggle getting the house key out. I think if we were checking in daylight this would have been easier. The house is partially remodeled and clean but by no means completely updated. The appliances are new but the bathrooms are older. All in all we had a fun time but probably would not choose this house again. ##### Irene K. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tony W. 11 Aug 2025 ##### Tony W.
