    The only thing that would have been nice is an electric kettle. They have a bunch of Keurig machines, but I like to make my own pour overs and a kettle would have been nice. That said, I don't expect a kettle when I travel and had a perfectly pleasant stay.

    Great historical space in a great location. Just outside of the bustle of Friday Habor, but still very close and walkable. The only criticisms were the shower water pressure, which is understandable for an old home and a mildewy smelling shower curtain. Great stay overall!

    Everything was awesome. We love that they had blackberry briars all around the property. We ate so many delicious blackberries. The only true complaint I have, was that the eater pressure in the shower was not great. Other than that, everything was just as we where told. I would love to stay there again, next time we visit the magical townnof Friday Harbor. What is not said in the description that we found great, was it proximity to everything. You. An literally walk to everything within town.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay! The two rooms were bright, inviting, and impeccably clean. Property management was quick to respond, and the housekeeper was especially friendly. The location was ideal—just a short walk from the ferry and a perfect home base for exploring Friday Harbor.

    Adequate accommodations for our family of five. The only real bummer was the water pressure in the shower...it was basically a dribble. Other than dishes and flatware, the kitchen has no utensils/supplies, so plan on bringing your own if you’re like us and cook with an instant pot while traveling. Easy walk to town and a very friendly staff.

    Enjoyed my stay in this charming Craftsmen Style Home, which was conveniently located near downtown Friday Harbor. The location made it quick and easy drive to any of the beaches and walking distance to Friday Harbor's many restaurants, stores and bars.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Multi unit place. 5 different units. We had no issues with noise. We stayed in the Miners room, there are stairs to this room, again no issue for us. Room was clean and had everything we needed. Coffee pot, microwave and fridge. Room is perfect for two people. We loved the close proximity to town, it allowed us to explore the town. I would recommend.

Acanthus is very close to downtown. It's got great parking. We can all stay together and still have privacy. Nice place

    Loved the location and sleeping arrangements were adequate. Bed in Annex was very hard and that room was very hot even with windows open and fan going. We were so busy we didn't use the tiny TV. Only real sitting area is the dining table. Five of us stayed and it was a reasonable cost.

    The Acanthus Suites are just adorable. A historic little spot within walking distance of everything in Friday Harbor. The pictures in the hallway describing the history of the home and the area added to the quaint and homey vibe. Thanks for a lovely stay!
