Shore Thing Retreat is a beautiful waterfront escape on Orcas Island, designed for easy, restorative days by the sea—and yes, it’s dog-friendly. Tucked along a scenic stretch between the ferry landing and the charming village of Eastsound, the home feels private and peaceful while remaining close to restaurants, shops, and island adventures. Clean, modern finishes blend with cozy Pacific Northwest touches to create a calm, welcoming atmosphere. From the moment you arrive, the space feels open, restful, and made for unwinding.

Each of the three thoughtfully designed bedrooms features its own bathroom, offering flexible accommodations for families, couples, or small groups who want both comfort and privacy. Shared spaces invite connection—whether it’s movie nights, board games, or simply curling up with a good book.

Outside, a private hot tub and cabana turn evenings into a soak-and-stargaze ritual. Unwind after a day exploring Moran State Park or paddling the Salish Sea, surrounded by fresh ocean air and rustling trees. With minimal light pollution, the night sky becomes part of the experience. Prefer to stay dry The expansive back deck offers loungers and a large outdoor sofa, perfect for relaxing afternoons. For a little friendly competition, enjoy ping pong on the front porch or set up a game of cornhole on the lawn.

Bring the whole crew—dogs included. From the off-leash dog park in town to scenic shoreline walks and pine-lined trails, Orcas Island offers plenty of ways to explore together. Then return to Shore Thing Retreat, where both people and pups can settle in and relax.

    My family and I had an interesting trip to Orcas Island, but the one place we had no complaints was the vacation home. It was beautiful. It was quiet and peaceful. It all had all the amenities. The kitchen had everything we needed. There were plenty of games and movies to watch. The wifi worked great. After we hit the grocery store, there was no reason to leave. That may be the one downside, once we got there no one wanted to leave, and we saw very little of the island. Maybe next time we visit we will see some of the island since my children are already bugging me to go back.

    The WiFi - we let the property manager know and they fixed it when they could. The house was nice. No water access. Just trees with water distant views. I would stay here again- especially if I do not need fast internet.

    The back deck overlooking the trees and water was the perfect place for a group of 6 to relax and enjoy the scenery. The house was comfortable and nicely furnished. We found the house clean with plenty of extra linens. Great bathtub. Quiet and fairly secluded location. We would definitely rent this house again.

    Our small group of four adults and one pup greatly enjoyed Shore Thing Retreat. We were easily able to spread out into our own spaces, gathering in the kitchen, living room, and outside deck with exceptional eastsound views. We were a short drive into town and enjoyed all of the amenities, smart TV, well stocked kitchen with coffee maker and teapot, and fenced pet relief area.

    Terrific views of the sound, boats, eagles, etc. we were six people, two in each bedroom, and very comfortable. There is no direct access to the beach, but that seems to be an issue all over Orcas, unless you stay at a place that has its own beach.

    Lovely home in a quiet setting with a view between the trees of the water. The house was well furnished, easily accommodated our family group of 3 couples. Loved the deck, and the side yard perfect for our small dog. Located centrally on the island--easy to visit any location. would love to return in future.
