Amazing

My family and I loved staying in this location. It was tucked away from everything, but had easy access to all the great parts of the island. The house was very well equipped and very well planned out. We can’t wait to come back and visit again soon!!!

quiet with a lot of wildlife

Nice place to stay very secluded and quiet. close enough to town that everything is in reach. Very nice furnishings and very accommodating. My 4 year old had smores for the first time in the back yard fire pit and loved his special chocolate sandwich.

Perfectionism

Rob and Kim were great hosts and shared their beautiful home in Doe Bay with our family. It was the perfect location for us to gather as we spent time with local family and enjoyed the wonders of Orcas island. The views and gardens are wonderful at this happy place.

Anniversary getaway

We had a lovely stay in Doe Bay. Rob was a fantastic host, communicated diligently, and ensured that we had everything we needed. Orca's has some incredible restaurants, hiking, kayaking, and views. It's an easy place to get around and it was an ideal time of year to visit. The location is fairly remote, which was exactly what we wanted. Night bring many deer onto the road so it was necessary to go slow and be very cautious driving to and from the house.

Beautiful home

This is a lovely home with a beautiful view. The owner was easy to reach and helpful. The outside lounge area is fabulous and heated/covered so can use anytime. It is very peaceful on this side of the island but a bit farther from town if you want easy access to restaurants and groceries. We had a very relaxing getaway.

Fantastic!

I cannot say enough about Orcas Island, this home, and the owners/hosts. Wonderful all the way around. While the property is a bit out of town, it is not that far and is in a lovely spot. Great views. The amenities are nice, with great beds and bathrooms, a wonderful deck to relax on, and a well supplied kitchen. Also, there is a beautiful garden to enjoy. The hosts are generous and very easy to work with. If you are going to Orcas, this is the place to stay.

Very special place!

We stayed here 4 nights. I wish we had longer! The house has everything you need. The beds and furnishings are comfortable, nice kitchen with everything you need, surrounded by trees, birds, flowers, and the beautiful Doe Bay! We started and ended each day on the lovely patio - a definite happy place! Thank you Rob and Kim.

Beautiful views, peaceful surrounding, and well-appointed house

This was a wonderful experience. Our family enjoyed coffee and talks on the large deck, a well-appointed kitchen with everything we needed, lunch (fried halibut, fries, and cherries) at the local Buck Bay Restaurant, boating tour, and a 1000 piece puzzle at the house. We also had cool nights, great weather, and a fun hammock to boot. The hosts are outstanding; a lot like family.

We had a great time

We had a wonderful stay and felt right at home. The beds were very all comfortable (we used both beds and the pull out couch) with luxurious linens. The kitchen was well equipped and the views were outstanding. We had 6 people at the house (one age 5) and felt that there was plenty of room. While we didn't get to see any Orcas, we saw plenty of deer, birds, and a porpoise.

We are already looking forward to a trip back!

The location is perfect (my daughter and I experienced a beautiful humpback right at the bottom of the hill), it is secluded without being too far from town and the views are breathtaking, day and night! I can’t say enough good things about Rob and Kim either, they are amazing hosts! We had a pretty rough trip coming in and they were more than accommodating through it all. You will not be disappointed in your stay in this precious little home, I can promise you! -The Amy Family

Lovely Home and Hosts on Orcas Island

The house was perfect for our stay on Orcas Island. The size and layout of the house was perfect for 3 adults, each having our own sleeping area. The home is perfectly clean with every upgrade and amenity you need in all rooms. You have a wonderful view of the water from the front patio and many windows. We also thought the location was great as it gave us lots of opportunity to explore the East side of the island and park, but with an easy drive to both Eastsound and the ferry. Rob and Kim are perfect and lovely hosts and I would highly recommend staying at their home on Orcas!

Relaxing spot

Located adjacent to Doe Bay Resort on the far side of Orcas Island with peekaboo water views (no direct access). Good sized house with amenities including large heated deck, laundry, wifi and streaming, full-size fridge and freezer, and fireplace. Owners live on their boat and offer trips as an add-on via text msg. They addressed a surprise maintenance issue quickly. Detailed checkout requirements make the value for money and 10am checkout a little tricky, but a nice spot overall. Our family of four had a pleasant stay.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful home!

We spent three wonderful nights at Robert and Kim's home at Doe Bay. This beautifully decorated and very comfortable home had everything we needed for a fabulous stay on Orca's Island. The views of the ocean from the bedroom, kitchen, and deck were beautiful,and we enjoyed the local wildlife, too. The fully-upgraded home had plenty of room for all six members of my family. Robert and Kim also kept us updated on information regarding ferry schedules, traffic, and local excursions before we arrived. (We highly recommend Shearwater Kayak Tours!). Thank you, Robert and Kim, for everything!

Magical

We had such a wonderful stay here! The house is clean, comfortable and has such beautiful and unique decor. The view from the porch is breathtaking. The beds are super comfortable and we loved the heat lamps on the porch in the evenings. We had a lot of fun with our kids using the telescope to look for whales, seals and otters. Doe Bay is a perfect location- not too far from everything but also very remote. Rob and Kim were always available to answer any questions and were very kind! We will definitely be back someday! Thank you for sharing your magical place with is. - -The Long's

Lovely Island Retreat

Rob and Kim's place was the ideal location to celebrate my 50th birthday. My family joined me for the first couple nights, and our teens were entertained with the games and TV options. There is a kayaking outfit (Shearwater) that runs a tour out of Doe Bay resort - highly recommend and so convenient! Hiking, lakes, and shops/restaurtants are within a 20-30 minute drive. After my family left, I enjoyed days of long days of hiking book-ended by lazy mornings in bed with a cup of coffee and evenings on the deck with a glass of wine while taking in the amazing view. The cabin has everything you need to be comfortable, including a well stocked kitchen and lots of extra towels and blankets. Hosts are responsive and very helpful. If you have time for a massage/bodywork while in town, Iona at the Healing Arts Center is a miracle-worker!
