    We needed a place to stay in Anacortes so we could catch the ferry the next morning and decided to splurge a little. The hostess has done a wonderful job of making this a comfortable place to stay. And the setting, just up the hill from the Guemes ferry landing and with its views out over the water (filtered views, but views nonetheless), it was worth it. The neighborhood is quiet, too. So we slept like babies.

    This is the third or fourth time my daughter and I stayed in this adorable studio in Anacortes. It has every little thing that you might need and such host. I love being able to walk to town or walk the neighborhood in the evening and watch the sunset. I highly recommend this location.

    The stay at this Vrbo was excellent. Loved the location and the amenities were fabulous. The host was excellent and very nice. We loved it. The website was very confusing for us. We couldn't get into it to get our code. Luckily the host was around to help us out...Thanks and will do this again.Sandra

    This Anacortes studio was a wonderful, well appointed and clean accommodation. Host is very communicative and positive. Convenient parking with walking access to the Guernes ferry. A short drive to San Juan ferry or downtown Anacortes gives this studio the perfect location. Highly reccommend!

    Comfortable furniture, well-equipped apartment (with surprising amenities), quiet neighborhood close to water, shopping/restaurant area. Works well if you use a walker providing you can navigate 3 steps with a handrail.

    Beautiful studio, well equipped and comfy. Close to Commercial ave and all it has to offer from burgers to italian pastry. Friendly hosts went the extra mile for us and we really appreciated that. If your here on a clear night you can sit out on the porch and watch stars and satellites for hours, and it's soooo quiet.

    Pamela has thought of everything (and then some!) that a guest might need or want. The converted garage space, in a quiet historic residential neighborhood was the most pristine rental we’ve experienced. Comfy bed, filtered water in the fridge, coffee (no milk), even eggs (probably from the chickens on the opposite end of their house next door.,

    Thank you so much for a very comfortable three nights. This little rental is very big on detail and impeccably clean. To our surprise the hosts kindly left us the most beautiful blue speckled eggs in the refrigerator. There are countless thoughtful extras you just can’t imagine. The hosts are very warm and welcoming. We wish them all the best and hope to stay again.

    I love this property and stayed here again this year while my teen daughter attended a day camp for the week. The host, Pam is so kind and the cottage so well appointed and organized. It makes me want to go declutter and organize my own house!! Love how close we are to town, the water for peaceful evening walks and will definitely come back if the opportunity presents itself!!

    We had a wonderful stay at Pamela’s cottage. The bed and pillows were so comfortable! She had it well stocked with many things to make our stay enjoyable. All communication with Pamela was very prompt. One day we cycled to the ferry that took us to Lopez island where we enjoyed the sights by bike. Another day we went to Tulalip outlet mall, just an hour away. We enjoyed walks around the quiet and beautiful neighborhood. Sunsets were stunning. We would happily return!

    Can't say enough about how responsive and nice Pam was to work with. She reach out to me hours before check-in letting me know that if I arrived early the place was ready. the amenities were top shop shelf. And I mean every little detail . Kitchen was well stocked. Even fresh eggs and butter in the fridge. I stay at places like this often when I travel. It sure is a delight when you stumble upon a place done as nicely as this one.

    The house was perfect, the host was perfect. The wife and i loved this cozy studio, Pam made it feel even cozier with the decor and everything that was provided for us, which was honestly just about everything you would need for a relaxing stay. Its about a block away from the Guemes island ferry you can literally look out the door to see it depart theres a beautiful little beach a walk away from the house. If your thinking of going to Anacortes or anywhere near you need to stay here. I wish i could rate higher cause i would. Thank you so much for the beautiful weekend stay Pam!!
