    Fantastic Vrbo. Lots of wildlife comes to visit you throughout your stay. We saw several eagles and hawks, many Deer (up to 8 at one time) come to visit in the mornings and evenings— there was also a stunning red fox who came around each evening. The view is fantastic and the property is magical.

    We stayed 2 nights, arriving very late at night the place was easy to find. Wonderful place had everything we needed besides tea kettle, I noticed the description before I booked didn’t mentioned one so we brought our own from home but other then that had everything we needed was very cozy and comfortable . The property and home was very clean, well stocked with towels, kitchen essentials to feel at home. Definitely will come back in the future . I wish kids were welcomed to bring them here.

Cabin was clean, comfortable and incredibly well located. Awesome views from a side of Lime Kiln that most people never get to experience.

    This is a very special place on San Juan Island! The views and sunsets are lovely, the cottage is clean and comfortable, and it is easy to get to other parts of the island. Communication with the agent was seamless! Highly recommended!!

    We stayed here for our 10-year anniversary, and it was absolutely magical! We got in after dark, so finding our way took a minute (where exactly to go, where to park), but once we stepped inside and out onto the deck — wow. The view took my breath away! You can see Lime Kiln Lighthouse right from the balcony, which was the main reason I booked this place, and it did not disappoint.The house was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The couch was a bit broken in which made us sink into it. There are a few chairs, but nothing super comforrsble for relaxing. One bed was really soft, and the other was firm - so, something for everyone. But the best part? The view and the wildlife. Sitting on the balcony, listening to the birds and watching everything around us was just incredible. We saw deer wandering through the property, heard great horned owls calling to each other at night, and even spotted a couple of foxes! At least one adult fox, and a younger one that was very interested in us! No whales this time, but it was still such a peaceful, beautiful, unforgettable place. There were a few annoyances that I said above, but I'd be happy to stay here again! (I said multiple times that I felt like a Disney princess because of all the wildlife!)

    We, unfortunately, did not stay at this property due to a burst pipe. We were given a stay at another property which was beautiful. The comminication was a bit all over the place. However, overall the place we ended up in was nice.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our time here was wonderful! It was so secluded and private and it had all the essential to have a lazy, do-nothing vacation. My husband and I came here for our honeymoon and it was the perfect place to relax after the stress of our wedding. Several mornings we sat on the deck with our coffee and watched baby deer walk by. If we had gone during whale watching season it would have been perfect then too!

    This is my second time at this property. It’s remote and quiet with a beautiful view of the water and lighthouse. Very clean and comfortable and perfect for a single or couple. Deer and foxes roam the property and are very tame. Highly recommended for an extended stay on San Juan island.

    Incredible location, great water views from the living room and deck, and wildlife surrounding the remote private location. We brought a few items from home (some kitchen utensils, a room fan, a night light), however, the cabin had all those items including everything else we would need. We brought clothes, food, and toiletries and extra binoculars, and we were all set. The hosts' house is nearby, but with the boulders and trees, the cabin is very private. This was our first VRBO experience and the bar has been set high for our next VRBO trip.

We were not able to see whales, but did see more eagles soaring and fishing than we have ever seen before. Sitting on the porch and taking in the view was just incredible. Would recommend and definitely would stay here again.

    Very remote cabin located on the shore. The cabin is clean and comfortable. Great views of the sunset (unfortunately no whale sightings). Convenient to the parks on the west and south side of the island. The cabin is set up for a long stay but bring your groceries and everything you need to cook-the stores are not close by. Recommended for a peaceful vacation

    Things we loved: The wildlife on property; fox, deer, lots of birds and raccoons. (Unfortunately the whales are not frequenting this area as much as they have in the past because of lower food supply, so we didn’t see whales from this space) The view of deck, although partially obstructed with trees was lovely. Things that need improvements; For this being one of the most expensive smaller attached adus on the island. The ADU comes with discarded and broken household furniture and appliances, dishes. There are no wine glasses but only plastic stemware from the dollar store. There is a broken grandfather clock in bedroom. The kitchen was lacking baking dishes, a mixer, updated appliances. The reason why this is so disappointing to me is this issue has been mentioned several times in reviews dating back ten years but nothing has been done. There are lots of Farms on the island and not that great restaurants and not having the tools to be able to cook was disappointing. Also, considering how much it costs not being greeted with at least coffee for the morning was -a shock. The owners live next door on property. I felt like the owners don’t really take very much pride into having guests on their property. They do not act as if we are guests , but rather we should feel privileged to be there and felt subhuman. To top it all off, the parking for the unit is a bit designated away unlike owner if you don’t park there they will Be woken up at 7 am!!

    Such a special and unique place to stay. The cottage has everything you need, and you can watch for whales from your deck as well as other vantage points on the property. And if you're not whale-watching it's fun to watch all the deer, raccoons and foxes that live on the property.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I cannot say enough good things about this property. It really made our whole trip so much better. The owners of the property are next door and are so nice! The property is very private and is located on what has to be the best spot on the island for wildlife experiences and views. Where else can you possibly see bald eagles, whales, ravens, deer, foxes, and raccoons all in the same place? It truly is a little piece of heaven and I plan on returning next year. As far as amenities, the house had everything you could possibly need. The beds were very comfortable. The property was clean and well-maintained.

    Photos don’t do this place justice. The view of lime kiln lighthouse is truly stunning. The tranquility and wildness of the location is amazing. Waking up and coming home to an array of wild deer, raccoons and foxes is like a Disney paradise. Would highly recommend
