Beautiful manicured setting overlooking a magnificent lagoon and beyond the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Protection Island National Wildlife Refuge, and the San Juan Islands and Mt Baker are visible.Everything about this house makes you want to spend time there. It’s a multiple year vacation choice for us and we’ve booked 2026 already. There is no nicer place to stay on VRBO if you like quiet, an incomparable setting and a well designed, very comfortable house. The Best.

Wonderful stay. True peace and quiet. Fun watching the bald eagles on the property fishing in the evening, and finishing my book. Mac my golden retriever loved rolling in the grass. Just what we needed!

Lovely Lagoon

Very nice cottage on an exceptional property. The lagoon view is magnificent and full of life with birds coming and going by the hour. Our dog loved walking the grassy lawn by the shore. The kitchen amenities were exceptional, we wanted for nothing. We look forward to another stay!
