This remodeled home that sleeps 6, located on the Westside of San Juan Island, is the perfect getaway for groups or couples wanting to relax and enjoy what the island has to offer.

Enjoy watching wildlife off the water-view deck as the local birds enjoy the bird feeders, and maybe spot a harbor seal playing in the water below.

The kitchen is situated to enjoy the expansive views while preparing your meals. You may catch a glimpse of a passing Orca Whale while pouring your morning coffee!

    It’s difficult to imagine a more perfect spot from which to enjoy nature. We saw orcas and bald eagles from the dining room and sea lions in nearby Kiln Park. If you keep the bird feeder on the rear deck full with the supplied wild bird food, you’ll be rewarded with a steady stream of gorgeous finches and sparrows. The house itself was exceptionally clean with very comfortable beds. Do yourself a favor and stay here!

    We loved every moment of our time at this clean and comfortable home. The view was absolutely amazing, and we did, in fact, see whales (two orca pods J, and L) and a Minke whale. We also saw sea otters, and porpoises, and the resident bald eagle all while over cooking our meals out of distraction from all the natural majesty to be witnessed. We very much hope to return next year!

    Ample room for our family with a great view and modern features. We spent the weekend here and were very pleased with everything. Binoculars and telescope were lots of fun and there were plenty of games to be played. A stairway down the cliff let us get to the water for some great sunsets. Lots of screened ventilation meant we went to bed to the sounds of the waves and woke to birdsong. We would absolutely stay again.

    Whale Watch Haven is a beautiful, well appointed and comfortable house with spectacular views of the water! It was a family stay with two of our adult children and their partners. The house is private and a great base to explore San Juan Island from. We shrimped from our boat two days of our stay and had a wonderful time! Beautiful Roche Harbor is where we moored our boat. It has restaurants, a coffee shop and store right at the harbor with additional stores just up from the harbor. I highly recommend Whale Watch Haven House!

    We rented this place looking for a nice, relaxing getaway and it delivered. The house was immaculate (which is appreciated during this pandemic) and was very comfortable, from the captain’s chairs overlooking the strait to the gooshy couches curled up watching movies, we had a good time. Fantastic modern kitchen meets rustic cabin-like feel - we cooked many of our meals there and used the BBQ a few times too. Super easy. And the beds were all fine - we only used two as we're a family of three. Of course, the best part of this place is truly the view - particularly in the late afternoon and into the sunset hour. Magical. Just sit back and let the water melt your stresses away. I’d recommend this place and would like to return someday. One thing worth mentioning, it does get cold at night and the heating is limited to the living room and downstairs (or, at least it see,Ed that way). Otherwise, no real complaints.

    • Manager Responded on 4/14/2021

      What a lovely experience for you and your family at the Whale View Haven! This is a precious home with an unbeatable view and we are so happy you were able to fully enjoy your stay! With this home being situated facing the Western sun, it was determined that the main living room and the downstairs of the home were the only rooms needed to equip with the efficient heaters. Turning on the heat in either locations is adequate to heat the rest of the home.

The houses are all clean, exactly as advertised and they are in some wonderful locations. This particular house is 15-20 minutes from Friday Harbor with very quick access to Roche Harbor. There was also a really cool cove, Smugglers Cove, that is a short walk from the house and is essentially private access to this neighborhood. It was beautiful.

    The stay was perfect. The kitchen is so well equipped. We cooked almost all of our meals. The outdoor grill is new and clean. Nothing worse than staying at a place that advertises a grill and it’s old, rusty, dirty and has an empty tank. The view is better than advertised. The layout is comfortable. The home was extremely clean. The bathrooms and linens were top notch. We had a minor issue with internet, but we didn’t really rely on it but it was fixed ASAP. The owners responded quickly. We had the best possible stay we could have had. The local grocery was great. Most restaurants were closed but San Juan has plenty of great restaurants (from prior trips). The West side of the Island is where you want to be, the sunsets are amazing. If you have older people in your party, there is a small step down to the main area and the downstairs bedroom has a steep narrow staircase. Wasn’t an issue for us, just an FYI. We have no complaints with the home.

    Can't say enough about the views from this property! Pictures don't do it justice. While it was too steep to access the cove, the views make up for it. The house was clean and comfortable. Very well-stocked with spices, utensils, dishes, etc for the person who enjoys cooking. Felt like a home and not a rental. Great location on the west side of the island, but plan ahead to hit the grocery store when arriving into Friday Harbor. SJPM was easy to work with and made checking in and out seamless.

    The pictures, while they seem to be “painted”, are a very accurate representation of the cabin! The view is wonderful!! This is a 1960ish cabin that has been completely overhauled in the inside. Updated kitchen and baths newer furniture, comfortable bedding and linens! It really was a wonderful stay and worth every penny.!!

    The home is located on a very private lot in a secluded neighborhood road. During the time we were there, there were very few people around so it felt like we were really remote. There is no access to the water at this lot and you can’t use the wood stove (while u understand, it sure would have been nice on those cooler evenings)...only 15-20 mins to Friday harbor and 10-15 to Roche..

    We did not see any whales while we were there but it was a fantastic view.

    A couple of notes to consider, the main floor shower is hard to figure out and the steps down to the lower level BR and laundry are extremely slick when wearing socks (2 of us fell- not bad but those wood floors sure are well polished!!

    Nice Westside home that you can sit and watch the sunset and whales go by. House was clean and well stocked for our extended vacation. We saw Orcas the first day, along with a number of times during our stay. There was a pair of eagles that perched on the neighbor's trees each day, which was awesome! And a doe and her two young fawns graced our yard one afternoon, along with a daily visit from the numerous Island deer. We also saw a pair of otters, daily harbor porpoise, stunning birds at the bird feeder and sunsets that were breathtaking!! House was cozy and inviting. Two rooms upstairs with a shared bath, a kingsize bed in one which is nice. Two smaller rooms downstairs with a shared bath. Bedrooms do not have blackout curtains so bring an eye mask if light bothers you. Location was great, near Roche Harbor and Lime Kiln Park and not too far from Friday Harbor. We hope to make it a yearly visit.

    You can't beat the view and it lived up to its name-Whale View Haven!! Great location (about mid island), and a lovely landing point for activities in both harbors. Fabulous weekend!

    We had a really great experience at this rental. The house was clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed spending a long weekend there. The sunsets are so beautiful here. We had family from out of town visiting and this was the perfect trip to take them on. The kitchen had everything we needed and it was so organized. The management company was available at all times for any questions. We also really enjoyed grilling on the deck.

    Gorgeous home with stunning views from every room. Very comfortable and well-appointed. We thought the pictures might be too good to be true, but they were spot-on. The home really is that beautiful! Our only complaint was a shortage of bath towels. Other than that, our stay was perfect.

    Whale View is an amazing getaway! Beautiful views right on the water.
    The place is clean, comfortable and very enjoyable. Love watching the boats go by and dolphins dancing. There were deer all around the house too. Great place to reconnect to what matters and leave recharged! Hope to return.

    We had the most wonderful stay here this past memorial day. The view from the house was absolutely incredible (we saw orcas!). The deck is perfect for hanging out and grilling while taking in the view. We also went kayaking from Snug harbor which was about a 20 minute walk. Super convenient. Can't wait to go back!

    Our family had a wonderful time staying at this cabin over the weekend. We saw whales, seals swimming and many birds coming to visit at the bird feeder.?it was truly a magical place. One of our sons enjoyed looking through the telescope at all the passing freighters (far in the distance) and recording their names in his book. We loved the quiet natural quality of the location. Cabin was wonderful.

    This property is so lovely. The owners have thought of everything one could possibly need for a "home away from home". The views were spectacular and we saw Orca everyday. I have stayed at many west side properties over the last 6 years and this was by far one of the nicest.

    Cathy L from Seattle, WA recommends this vacation rental

    All 6 people in the house completely fell in love with this house and with the San Juan islands! Very peaceful location. Yes it's not in town, but it's a 15-20 minute drive with gorgeous views, so I didn't view the distance as a downside. The house itself is modest, comfortable, and clean. The view is absolutely beautiful. We saw at least 5 orcas while eating our breakfast on the patio. At night, it is far away from everything that you can stargaze for fun. The pictures on the site don't do the view justice!

    The moment we stepped through the door, we fell in love. This is the 4th place we've rented over the past 6 years, and we love it soooo much. The view is to die for. Whales a plenty just before sunset. Fantastic details everywhere. Private beach a short walk down the road. The very recent remodel thought of everything. Just don't rent it when we want it for next year!!!! Oh, the only thing missing was a teapot for boiling water, but the two coffee makers made up for that.
