    Bill G from Ashland, OR recommends this vacation rental

    A couple of changed would be helpful. The light switches and not at all clear as to which switch operates which light. Perhaps some of the switches could be labeled as to which light they operate. The lights above the "loft" bed don'd have a switch but have to be pluged in and out to oprate the light. A line switch would be helpful. Most improtantly an electrical outlet should be installed below the light switch at the top of the stairs to the loft room so that a night light could be pluggged in at the top of the stairs. The top step is very difficult to judge in the dark and is in fact rather unsafe.

      No, I had no problems with the service. I guess I just clicked the wrong answer. Sorry. We had a most enjoyable stay. The only disappointment was to learn that the folks who have "The Place" restaurant are selling it and retiring. It was one of our favorite eating places. Thanks for your response Hope to see you next year. Bill Gill P.S. Sorry for the typos! I pressed "send" too soon. From management: All of the lighting issues will be addressed.

    Needed more dishwasher & laundry detergent for length of rental. Should provide guests with a vacum so they can clean up as they stay. Trash compactor & dishwasher not empty when arrived. All pretty minor, but a bit distracting. Otherwise ... fantastic.

    Views-stunning
    Weather-great
    Home-great - except for: toilet on main floor wouldn't stop running. We had to use either of the other toilets; BBQ needs work/replaced; and, our last night there we wanted to have a pizza and couldn't open the oven. Tip, don't order from Paradise Lanes - worst pizza EVER!! Otherwise, everything was great. Nice to have washer/dryer, extra bathrooms and outside decks! We had a great time. Thank you for everything!

    The guest book reflects comments written by daughters 4 and 5 in 1998 with the hope that we would return. Mom, Dad, daughter 3 and husband returned in 2011 and enjoyed the stay as much as we had previously. Hopefully, we'll be back before another 13 years have passed!

    Gina T from Reno, NV recommends this vacation rental

    We really enjoyed this property and plan to visit again sometime in the future. One suggestion that I have is to add a couple of additional games to the game closet. Apples to Apples is a great vacation game for 3 or more people. Other games, even checkers or chess, are inexpensive and provide an alternative to watching TV after the sun goes down.

    Actually, we spent a lot of time sitting on the deck looking out over the water and that provided enormous entertainment for us, but our teenage daughter would have liked the games to play instead of just sitting on the deck. Teenages require a little more activity to make them happy, where adults are content just to sit for a change and relax.

    Otherwise, this was a great vacation place. We found that we did not want to leave...a sure sign that we're likely to return.

    Marlene H from Fountainhills, AZ recommends this vacation rental

    We couldn't have been more pleased with the accommodations, location for beautiful scenery, and overall more than satisfied with the entire experience. We had not been to the San Juan Island before and when we return (which we plan that it will be soon) we will again rent this particular property. Property management arranging for the rental was very helpful and gave us information regarding ferry schedules, etc., that we wouldn't have known otherwise. We were so pleased with everything and wished our time could have been extended.

    We loved this cabin's view!! The house was spotless and just 5 minutes from Friday Harbor. We appreciated the Satellite Dish TV so we could watch the UW Husky Football game. There are steep steps going down to the cabin which would be important to know if anyone has mobility issues. Not a problem for us and we had a great time here!

    a guest from Napa, CA recommends this vacation rental

    Stayed at this property 9/17 - 9/24, 2010. Views of the water and islands were great - when it wasn't raining. House was nicely appointed and provided most everthing we needed or expected in a vacation rental. A couple of very minor comments - never figured out how to get more than lukewarm water in the shower by the kitchen (though kitchen had very hot water), found the shower hard to turn off completely (to conserve water), and would have liked the option to unblock parental controls on Directv. All-in-all a good experience and we would recommend it to others.
