Nestled in the quiet community of Doe Bay lies a charming craftsman 2bd, 2ba cottage you can effortlessly retreat into. The tasteful updating is done with propane fireplace, new king sized REM bed with adjustable base in the master bedroom, one side of the bed has a softer mattress while the other side is firm-take your pick. All brand new living room furniture, tasteful decorating , cozy dining area with bench seats and surround windows and the spacious master bedroom has vaulted ceilings displaying vintage SE Asian oars. Andrew Gath design of Seattle helped us with the interior, it is warm. comfortable and classic. Enjoy dining or morning coffee on the New large south facing deck with beautiful water views. High speed internet and Rocu Direct TV in both bedrooms. Wake up to a sunrise over the Salish Sea. Your Island home is part of a small close knit "homestead" community-originally a fishing camp at the turn of the century. Their are 3 full time neighbors and 3 ocassional weekenders-thus are home is more of place to go to savor the peace of the Islands. If having a good ole fashioned whoopee party on the deck until midnight is your idea of a vacation (and who doesn't like that occasionally) than this location is probably not for you. Sound carries and this home has neighbors. I have mult bird feeders around the yard and when one gets quite and still, birds of all sorts will fly right up to you, along with our resident Doug Fir squirrels, Island deer and raccoon although we ask that you not feed the deer or raccoons. River Otters frequently swim by the house!
Peace & quiet was here. Clean, comfortable, lovely view. I'd book again if we ever visit the island again. Thank you for sharing your home.
This is a lovely home with a beautiful view. The owner was easy to reach and helpful. The outside lounge area is fabulous and heated/covered so can use anytime. It is very peaceful on this side of the island but a bit farther from town if you want easy access to restaurants and groceries. We had a very relaxing getaway.
We loved our stay! It was quiet, beautifully decorated, well organized, with all of the anmenities we needed and Rob was great to communicate with.
We stayed here 4 nights. I wish we had longer! The house has everything you need. The beds and furnishings are comfortable, nice kitchen with everything you need, surrounded by trees, birds, flowers, and the beautiful Doe Bay! We started and ended each day on the lovely patio - a definite happy place! Thank you Rob and Kim.
Our family loved this private, quiet escape with a smashing view! Beds were incredibly comfortable. Porch facing the water is a perfect lounge with heaters & comfy couches. We enjiyed just watching the water each day.
Beautiful view, close to East Sound, great hosts! House has everything you need and porch is a delight!
Rob and Kim were great hosts and shared their beautiful home in Doe Bay with our family. It was the perfect location for us to gather as we spent time with local family and enjoyed the wonders of Orcas island. The views and gardens are wonderful at this happy place.
If you are looking for peace and quiet in an incredibly beautiful setting, this is the place. Nothing could be more relaxing than sitting on the deck and watching the view. The hosts were extremely kind and helpful.
Wonderful hideaway in Doe Bay. Property was comfortable and very quiet. View off of the front deck is spectacular. Owners were very friendly and helpful.
If you're looking for a great place to relax then this is the place for you! The house is perfect and the hosts are very gracious.
Rob and Kim are excellent hosts - they communicated clearly and effectively about everything related to the house and were helpful resources recommending local restaurants and spots of interest. The house is in terrific condition and probably best suited for small parties of 2-5. The kitchen is well outfitted with everything you will need to cook and clean. The location is remote and quiet - maybe a 30m drive from the main town with restaurants and shops, but only 10-15m from the state park and Buck Bay shellfish farm for delicious fresh seafood. The photos of the listing simply don’t do the house justice - the views are terrific and it feels fairly private. Highly recommend! We would absolutely stay at this place again.
Was a wonderful place to stay. Quiet, serene and calm surroundings. We had a wonderful stay with easy access to hiking, dining, and touring. Definitely would go back
We rented this perfect little treasure for two weeks and it was exactly what we needed and were hoping for. The house is perfectly arranged for a little family or two couples. The master bedroom is huge, the back bedroom is adorable, and both bathrooms are great. The beds are very comfortable and linens are top notch. The kitchen is also awesome and fully stocked - making pancakes for breakfast and seafood pasta for dinner while looking at the water was a dream. We also ate just about every meal, played games, read, and all the things on the huge new wrap around deck with an awesome view. Rob and Kim were also wonderful to work with. We will definitely be back!
Nice roomy property. For a family of 6 overlooking scenic Doe Bay. Fairly priced. 35-40 minutes from ferry. 20 minutes from Eastsound.
This was a wonderful experience. Our family enjoyed coffee and talks on the large deck, a well-appointed kitchen with everything we needed, lunch (fried halibut, fries, and cherries) at the local Buck Bay Restaurant, boating tour, and a 1000 piece puzzle at the house. We also had cool nights, great weather, and a fun hammock to boot. The hosts are outstanding; a lot like family.
We had such a wonderful stay here! The house is clean, comfortable and has such beautiful and unique decor. The view from the porch is breathtaking. The beds are super comfortable and we loved the heat lamps on the porch in the evenings. We had a lot of fun with our kids using the telescope to look for whales, seals and otters. Doe Bay is a perfect location- not too far from everything but also very remote. Rob and Kim were always available to answer any questions and were very kind! We will definitely be back someday! Thank you for sharing your magical place with is. - -The Long's
