WHALE WATCHING WATERFRONT VACATION HOME ON SAN JUAN ISLAND. HOT TUB, TOO!

You’ll experience the San Juan Islands vacation of your dreams in this absolutely beautiful waterfront rental home built right at the edge of the sea. This premium west-side San Juan Island location features fantastic views over the De Haro Straits. You’ll spend many hours mesmerized by the sound of the waves, panoramic vistas, glorious sunsets, and the seasonal joy of watching Orca whales pass right by your windows. Almost every room offers a spectacular view of deep blue water, snow-capped mountains, and Vancouver Island where the lights of Victoria BC twinkle at dusk.

There's a special niche for all in this gorgeous home. You can worship the sun and dine on an expansive deck twenty feet from the water. On the main level, comfy sofas and chairs will beckon you to converse in the cozy living room by the wood burning fireplace. Around the corner, you'll find a small wet bar and den with overstuffed leather seating and Plasma TV with satellite and DVD. There's a well equipped kitchen so you can prepare an excellent meal - a portion of which might be prepared on the new BBQ on the adjacent deck.

The three bedrooms are all on the main floor and feature soft linens and very comfortable beds. The master has a walk in closet, en-suite bath with jetted tub, and a gorgeous view (of course) as well as a private sunroom. A second bath is shared by a guest bedroom with a queen bed and the third bedroom that offers two twin beds and a trundle bed. A powder room and laundry room are also on the main level. Overflow guests can be accommodated on a sleeper sofa and window seat bed on the upper level, where there is also a TV, fooseball table, and bath with steam shower & dry sauna. There is access to a private viewing deck on this level as well.

Within a five minute stroll, you'll find a secluded pocket cove designated for local neighborhood use only - it's a beautiful and private place to picnic. Seas the Day is also near San Juan County state park (a great place to launch kayaks), as well as Lime Kiln Park and conservation lands that are woven with hiking trails. When you come home after a good day of exploring all the Island has to offer, there’s also a hot tub waiting where you can soak on star-lit nights and watch the cruise ships go by (and likely you will be the envy of everyone on board…)

The home is dog friendly and great for families, but, due to the high bank & deep water exposure, children and pets require very vigilant supervision.

Guests are required to provide a $1,000 security deposit as a condition of rental; names and ages of all guests are required at booking confirmation.

    a guest from St. Cloud, MN recommends this vacation rental

    We were thrilled with the house and the amenities. The large deck with afternoon sun was wonderful, especially with all the whales we saw! A couple times the hot tub was not hot, but a call to a caretaker quickly resolved the problem. We would definitely recommend the house to others!

    a guest from Lake Oswego, OR recommends this vacation rental

    We enjoyed our stay, especially sitting on the deck in the evening. The views were spectacular. We also enjoyed the orca visits. The orcas visited us twice. Once they were so close we could see them swimming in the water. We also enjoyed San Juan Island. This property is roughly equi-distant between Friday Harbor and Roche Harbor.

    Our only complaints were that the electronics were difficult to use. We could not play DVDs for the kids, which would have been helpful on a couple of occasions. The instruction were not helpful. Also, the master bath was clean, but seemed a bit below the standard set by the rest of the property, especially the master bath shower.

    Nevertheless, it was a very nice property and we enjoyed our stay. We would do it again!

    Mary Ann E from Encinitas, CA recommends this vacation rental

    We were thrilled with everything about our vacation rental! The remote location,orcas whales going by everyday/sometimes twice, deer and eagles galore. It was magical for all of us! Grandchildren especially. The home was beautifully furnished, more than enough towels than we expected, and everything we needed in the kitchen! We want to come back next year! Thank you so much!

    The perfect environment to just be content to exist. Great house for a group holiday while still allowing each person to feel like they had their own space. HIGHLY recommended!

    a guest from Redmond, WA recommends this vacation rental

    We had a fabulous week in this lovely house. We saw Orcas (25!) swim past the deck one morning and watched them frolic further out a few other times.

    Its a bit of a drive to town, but not bad and the house is so well equipped that we had everything we needed for a wonderful week. Our only difficulty was with the TV, which had a new service and was a bit confusing. We kept losing signal. Some directions on use would be a great help for renters. But who need TV, when you've got whales??

    We'd recommend this home to anyone and everyone that wants a memorable San Juan Island gettaway.

    Awesome!
