Eastsound, Washington
We live on beautiful Orcas Island, the gem of the San Juan Islands, off the coast of Washington State. Our cabin is at the foot of Buck Mtn. facing southwest. Our location is private and peaceful. We are minutes from all the amenities of the main village- Eastsound - where one finds the grocery store, organic food coop, restaurants, movie theatre, retail shops, Community Arts Center and more! The property is one of the original homesteads of the island. Our orchard is one of the few surviving from 1895 - most of the apple and pear trees (30+) are still robust producers! The original foundation is just behind the cabin. The family (Langells) abandoned the house when electric power became available. Our new cabin was built by Orcas locals using local wood. We heat with in-floor radiant, as we enjoy the quiet and comfort of it - its wonderful in winter! We also took care to provide all the amenities, such as full size refrigerator, washer dryer, and dishwasher. The beds are very comfy. There is a picnic table for you to enjoy eating in the orchard, a porch to hang out on with outdoor rockers and lounging chairs, and a bbq is available. If your cellphone service is spotty, we have a land line with unlimited long distance. Wireless internet is also available along with a television and free streaming of Netflix, Hulu, HBO and You Tube tv etc. We have lived on Orcas for over 30 years (my husband, Jim, even longer) and raised our two kids here. We look forward to hosting you at The Cottage in the Orchard! We have an active vr permit with San Juan County.
We enjoyed our stay.
Our stay at Jim & Cathy’s place was wonderful. The cabin is located in one of the most tranquil parts of the island. It is a very relaxing place that will surround you with nothing but nature and beautiful scenery. The cabin is spacious and the kitchen is well-equipped, great for cooking. Jim & Cathy made us feel welcome and were kind enough to offer us apples and pears from their orchard. We Highly recommend and would book this place again.
The cabin has everything we need. The bed is very comfortable. Very quiet and secluded and yet is not far from Moran State Park, north beach and the town. The only thing I would make suggestion is perhaps to change out the towels as they seem to be old.
We enjoyed our stay. The comfortable king bed, the porch and the deer watching were the highlights for us.
We had the most delightful and relaxing stay at Cathy and Jim’s cottage. Their property is secluded, quiet, and a perfect spot for solitude. It’s minutes away from the heart of Eastsound. We traveled there with our toddler and were pleasantly surprised at all the kid friendly additions - pack n play, kids’ books, toys, etc. Cathy and Jim were so lovely and generous. They checked in on us and provided some kitchen items when we realized we didn’t have what we needed. We felt so welcomed and taken care of while there. This was our first trip to Orcas and whenever we come back, we will definitely be staying here!
We really enjoyed our stay on Orcas Island! Perfect spot for us and our two kids (4-years and 10-months). It had everything we needed for the kids (high chair, travel crib, toys, etc.) and they loved seeing the deer and owl that came to visit in the evenings!
LOVED our stay at the orchard. The cabin is totally dialed-in for toddlers, which made our stay so much easier. Cathy and Jim are gems.
The property is isolated and peaceful, yet very close to town, restaurants, and Lake Moran. Ideal for our family!
Absolutely loved every bit of this property and hospitality of the owners. Nothing like being in middle of beautifully groomed grounds, wildlife, games under the tree on table..then making meals inside. I only pray I can enjoy this place again!
We loved our stay at Jim and Cathy's place. It was perfect. 1. You are close to town. You can walk there. 2. The house and space feel quiet and private. It is like an oasis on the property. 3. The house itself its lovely. Its very peaceful. The upstairs bed is really nice and comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need. 4. Jim and Cathy are great hosts. 5. I would recommend this spot to anyone.
Everything was as described. Small but comfortable space. The grounds were pleasant- porch for watching birds and deer. Very close to Eastsound.
