  Can't say enough about how STUNNING this place was, how responsive and flexible the owners were, and how accommodating the house was. We traveled with littles, and well, sometimes stuff happens with littles. They were so understanding, helped us take care of the issue quickly with support from the property management, and made the stress so minimal. Would, and absolutely will, come back!

  a guest from Lake Orion, Michigan recommends this vacation rental

  I cannot recommend this stay enough - as a last minute reservation, I was so pleased with the entire experience! Booking was easy and directions / instructions for our accommodations were simple. We arrived to a beautiful property and were welcomed with an exceptionally delicious gift basket of goodies! The house had everything we needed and more, and the beds were a dream to sleep on. We worked remotely during our stay and were able to host multiple video calls and conferencing with ease thanks to the speedy WiFi.
  
  If you’re looking for a peaceful, comfortable and relaxing vacation rental with stunning views, you can’t beat this location. Tucked away on the west side of San Juan Island, there are lovely views of the water from the deck where you can watch the sunset. We witnessed several pods of Orcas swimming in the cove in front of the property each morning, it was an absolute dream! The best part of this stay is surely the absolutely adorable family of Friday Harbor foxes that reside on the island. Every day of our stay, we watched them frolic around the fields in front of the home and play with each other. I never expected such great wildlife from this vacation rental—it was such a welcome surprise and made our trip that much more memorable.
  
  I can’t wait to return to the San Juan Islands and will absolutely be booking this rental for my next trip. Overall, it was perfect for our needs and made for such a lovely vacation. My only regret is not staying longer!

  We stayed at this gorgeous home for a four day, three night trip to San Juan Island and loved every minute. The home was clean, a welcome basket overflowing with snacks was waiting for us, and the views were incredible. We enjoyed mornings on the deck facing the water views and even saw a fox one morning. The bed we slept in was comfortable, the downstairs game room with foosball/pool/table tennis was super fun, and the hot tub was very nice. The kitchen was well-stocked with utensils and some extras like syrup, and some condiments in the fridge. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay as we explored San Juan and Orcas islands!would definitely return!

  Eric and Katya G from Milwaukie , Oregon recommends this vacation rental

  Our first vacation on San Juan Island was amazing in big part because of this house! Even though we had a wheel chair and disabled child to carry up and down the stairs (we knew of this in advance), the views and the quality of the place was all worth it. The hosts and the management company were most welcoming and accommodating. We wished we could stay longer. The home is very comfortable and spacious. The bedrooms are large with comfortable beds. We enjoyed the ping-pong and foosball tables in the game room. We used the kitchen and the outdoor gas grill to cook three of our dinners.
  A long stretch of the road leading to the property is graveled with the middle portion between wheels raised up. We had to drive our wheelchair van slowly and carefully in order not to scrape the underside very much. This wouldn't be an issue for most other vehicles.
  There was plenty to see and do within short drives from the house. The magical surrounding of this place are very memorable. We hope to be back some day!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed the deck and water view. They said it was one of the most beautiful places they had ever stayed in. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. We were able to check in early and drop off a few items before our family arrived. I would highly recommend this rental!

  My sister and I brought our daughters to Friday Harbor for a girls weekend. While the whales disappointed, this beautiful home definitely did not. The drive to the home prepares you for the seclusion and privacy of the property. The home is perfectly appointed with amazing amenities (my sister and I didn't use much beside the coffee machine since it was a holiday for us too!) and even had a game room on the first floor. I loved enjoying my morning coffee looking toward the water. The local wildlife was also a hit with our girls (foxes and deer). We didn't need to bother the hosts and from all accounts they, too, are amazing people. The San Juan Islands are magical and I look forward to bringing the rest of my family for a visit.

  We were very pleased with our three-night stay! The house is overall very comfortable and well supplied. Wood finishes are beautiful and provide a warm and homey feeling.

The owner’s house is close by but the orientation and landscaping provide a very private environment with great views of the surrounding terrain and water in the distance.

  This cottage by the sea is beautiful and very comfortable. My kids enjoyed playing foosball and ping pong in the game room and we all enjoyed the hot tub and the beautiful water view. There is a family of foxes that live in the shrubs near this home and we enjoyed watching them frolic in the meadow outside the house. Upon arrival, we noticed a large basket filled with snacks, this was a very nice touch. The hosts are very thougful and the home is cozy and inviting.

  We were lucky enough to spend the first week of the New Year at Debbie & Steve ́s beautiful house and we enjoyed our stay a lot! We especially loved the living room with its vaulted ceilings, its friendly tones, its amazingly warming oven and its beautiful art work. Enjoying this atmosphere while having breakfast and watching the ocean, eagles, hummingbirds and funny foxes, sitting on their stone next to the house, was just priceless!
  From the site of the house it only takes about 10 minutes by car to experience even more wildlife and ocean views on amazing trails, where an interesting chit chat with locals is always an option. After withstanding the winter forces of mother nature around the close by lighthouse it really feels good to return to the coziness of the house and to warm up in the hot tub.
  Debbie and Steve are wonderful and thoughtful hosts and recommended a very cool photo opp at a stunning mausoleum closer to Roche Harbor. Next to useful travel tips they even offered to help us out with food during a winter storm!
  We are looking forward to our next winter experience on San Juan and we already know where to book 😊 Thank you, Debbie & Steve!

  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. We saw many foxes in the field outside of the house and an highlight was seeing up to ten whales passing back and forth from the deck--we could even hear them splashing around. We appreciated being outside of the town of Friday Harbor and the kitchen was great for home cooked meals but close enough to drive in for meals out. We also loved that we were close enough to American Camp to explore via bike. The hot tub and ping pong table were great options when the weather turned. We felt there were lots of extra perks with this house and would come back.

  Well-maintained home 15 minutes from Friday Harbor. Great views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Victoria, Canada. We enjoyed watching ships and barges on their way to Canada while we drank coffee and wine from the deck. There was an adorable family of foxes who could be seen throughout the day playing and hunting in the nearby fields as well as a couple of deer. We were pleasantly surprised to find the owners had added a game room in the garage since our booking which included a tv, pool/ping pong table, and a foosball table. The kids absolutely loved the addition! House is located about 5 minutes from the America Camp with plenty of hiking trails, 20 min to Lime Kiln, and 30 min to Roche Harbor. The owners live next door and were very attentive when we had a concern. Would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking for a beautiful home during a quiet escape to the island.

  Jeff Z from Seattle, WA recommends this vacation rental

  Needing to remove ourselves from Seattle during the CV crisis we happened upon the Cutting's beatiful property. It was well equipped for four of us and could have easily handled six. The space was inviting to relax and do things inside but also set in a great piece of property with sweeping views of the Pacific and positioned to take long walk along the cliff side or down to the water.
  
  The amenities are tremendous: gas stove, propane grill, plenty of kitchen equipment, a warm hottub, three different deck/patio areas, bathroom and cleaning supplies galore.
  
  We worked from home so a few things about that. This home receives satellite internet which is reasonable for a vacation but might be a bit limiting for those working from home. That being the case, it worked well for us and the space is very comfortable for three adults to be working all day in their own space.
  
  Overall we couldn't have asked for a better location, facility or stay. Thank you for being such accommodating hosts and providing us with a comfortable respite during this unique time. We hope to see you soon!

  We stayed at Water View Place for five nights in August. The home is beautiful. Very well appointed with nice linens and towels, very good mattresses, well stocked kitchen, plenty of beach towels and chairs. The location is serene and definitely away from the noise of Friday Harbor. Beautiful west-facing water view for wonderful sunsets. Steve and Debbie left a welcome basket with everything you could need for a few breakfasts. The hot tub was terrific - clean, strong jets, nice patio garden surrounding it. We used the grill several times. Very nice feature. Beautiful hard wood floors throughout and panoramic views from all sides of the house. Truly a beautiful island retreat. Eagle Cove beach is about 1/2 mile down the road with parking. Definitely recommend an ocean kayaking tour if you haven't done it. We left from Roche Harbor with San Juan Outfitters for a five hour excursion. Small group - just three kayaks. Great day. Would recommend Water View Place very highly. We would definitely re-rent if we return to the island. Thank you Debbie and Steve!

  This home is located in my favorite part of the island, with a wide open feeling and great views. Nearby are beautiful scenic opportunities for quiet exploration. Proximity to town is great, with deer in the yard and on the bluff. Adjacent homeowner cottage is close, but courteous acknowledgement of privacy, and a very warm and welcoming basket of coffee, bread, and snacks was a nice touch.

  We spent 2 nights at the San Juan Island and had a great time at this beautiful house. The property was very clean, nicely furnished and just 10-20 minutes away from any major part of the island. The caretakers surprised us with a basket full pf goodies and hand written card. It was a very personal and kind gesture. The only things we didn't like were maintenance related. The grill had not been cleaned for a long time (this is partially visitors' fault), there were no patio/dech lights that we could find, so it was hard to use the bbq after sunset.

  • Manager Responded on 1/31/2019

    We are so happy you enjoyed yourselves at Water View Place! It is truly a south-end gem of a property. The sunsets and sunrises at that property are amazing!

  What a beautiful home. Spent three nights with family here and we had such a great time relaxing and connecting. Check in was easy, we were even given a notice that the property was available early. The space was impeccably clean and well stocked. The basket of goodies and welcome note was so cool when we arrived and was just one of the little touches that made the stay special. Best part by far though, was driving up with about 10 deer in the field around the house. We saw bald eagle across the incredible view as well. What a great place and only 10 minutes (or less) to town. Would definitely recommend.

  The house is exactly as pictured and described. Views were great and it was fun to experience a variety of November weather. The care takers left us a great goodie basket with all the things we would need for the 1st day's breakfast- including some of the BEST bread we've ever tasted! The only disappointment was that we couldn't get another loaf from Bakery San Juan before we headed back home. We saw deer every AM and PM! Close to Friday Harbor and to American Camp. Great gas fireplace and open floor plan for all of us to hang out while cooking. Hot tub was great- everything is brand new at the house. TV w/ great cable was a treat! Wi-fi works great, but (as they warned us in advance) cell phone coverage is spotty. Care takers were not there during our stay, but for some people who are looking for 100% privacy I would say that the their home is a little closer than I expected. We had a fabulous time and will be be back for sure!

  Really enjoyed our 4 nights at this place. A high quality house in just a wonderful setting. The hosts were great. The house had everything we needed. The view is really special - yes, we did see an Orca from the view deck. This was a perfect place for 3 life-long friends to stay and hand out together. Two items to be aware of - (1) while there are three bedrooms, there are only two (huge) bathrooms - not a problem for us, but make sure that is appropriate for your group (2) Wifi works fine, but cell phone service is spotty at best (like in many parts of the island). Overall, a quality place to stay.

  Charles P from Mercer Island, WA recommends this vacation rental

  We had a wonderful 3 night stay at Water View Place. The home is lovely, very accurately depicted in the photos.
  The location on the west side of SJI is perfect for sunsets and views over the water to Vancouver Island and Victoria. This is enhanced by having the living/dining areas upstairs for the views, along with a large deck facing west.
  We enjoyed every morning and evening on that deck, and were treated several times to pods of Orcas feeding along the coast. We were close enough to hear their exhalations when they would surface!
  The home was well cleaned, and well appointed with niceties like bathroom products, complimentary ground coffee, treats etc. Gracious touch!
  The queen beds are very comfortable (a bit on the soft side for our personal taste, but that is subjective of course). The bedrooms are well outfitted with closet/storage space.
  No A/C, but the San Juans rarely stay hot at night, so we would open the screened windows and things would cool down. No window in the master bedroom (double door to small deck, not screened), but a fan is supplied. (A screen on that door would be a nice touch, although we didn't have any bugs while there).
  Kitchen is well stocked (unusual!), and washer/dryer are large and work well. Didn't use hot tub.
  iHome stereo device rigged for iPhone/iPad attachment is nice. Didn't use TV, etc.
  Parking area is easy and large.
  Location beautiful, and remote for privacy (note very helpful owners do live adjacent in own cabin, but didn't impinge on our sense of privacy). Friday Harbor 10-15 minute drive. Same for Lime Kiln SP or Cattle Point. Roche Harbor about 30 min.
  Overall, a wonderful home in a quiet location with a fantastic view. Would highly recommend to friends and family.
  Thanks for a great stay!

  Loved the serene location. Very clean place, updated, lovely. Landscaping around the house was beautiful. Very happy with the place, zero complaints. When I was in the research phase, looking for places to stay on San Juan Island, I remember reading someone's comment that guests have to go outside to access the patio and hot tub. That's not the case. It was easily accessible through a very clean (and unoccupied) double garage. We really enjoyed the place, and like I mentioned, it was very clean, beautifully updated, awesome views, and all-around great.

  We just returned from a long weekend at Water View Place. What a beautiful home and memorable stay! The home is situated with a view of the water, and we enjoyed daily sightings of deer grazing in the meadow. Each morning we drank our coffee and watched the wildlife and various activities in the bay.
  
  My cousin and I brought our moms up for a long weekend. We spent several hours a day sight seeing, but always looked forward to coming back to the house at the end of the day to relax. Furnishings were comfortable, Wi-fi worked great, and we enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen.
  
  I would highly recommend this place, and wouldn't mind renting it again in the future. If you have anyone in your party who cannot climb stairs, you may want to consider another location.

  Jeffrey N from Waxhaw, NC recommends this vacation rental

  We've rented on both coasts - in the mountains, the desert, on the beach and lakeside - and this property is easily in our top 5; maybe tied for first. The photos are 100% accurate - if not a bit modest: the views across the sound to the Olympics are absolutely incredible. You can actually view the sounds from both the large front deck AND the smaller deck of the master bedroom. The property is well-finished with quality materials, immaculately maintained and spotlessly clean. The owners live next door, and were available and friendly but never intrusive. Near the end of a gravel road, the house is incredibly quiet - except for the sounds of the waves and birds. We saw deer and quail each evening. The welcome snacks and first morning coffee supply were a nice extra touch. While not touted in the review, the living room couch (while not a pull-out) is a comfortable sleeping spot if you have a snorer in your family and kids too old to share a bed! With so much to do on the island, we actually scheduled our sunsets to be back at the house to enjoy them! Amazing place!

  Stephanie B from Abington, PA recommends this vacation rental

  From the beautiful garden to the abundant wildlife, this home has it all. The house itself is very nicely appointed, but the natural surroundings are what make it spectacular. The views of the water allow you observe orcas swimming past right from the porch. Hummingbirds and bald eagles fly overhead. Black tailed deer and foxes graze in the surroundings. We would happily return to this property in the future and highly recommend it to others.

  The property was beautiful, and an easy fifteen minutes to town. The view was wonderful, and my wife enjoyed the bald eagle playground that is this particular area, managing to photograph multiple eagles at a time the week of our stay. The house is well furnished and comfortable, and has all the modern touches that you might hope for. The owners live on site, and were incredibly nice and helpful if needed. We will definitely stay here again.

  Brian E from Pantego, TX recommends this vacation rental

  We had a great trip to Water View Place, the perfect place to stay our first time on San Juan Island. Our family of 4 and my mother made the trip to visit family who live near by. The views were incredible, and the drive in was so different and fun compared to our everyday lives. The house was warm and inviting upon arrival, exactly what was needed after a long travel day. We look forward to coming back and visiting in the summer next time and would love to stay here agin, we hear the whales visit near by and you can hear them singing at night.

  Lovely house and location. Potential guests need to know that main living area is upstairs; not ideal for someone with mobility issues. An added plus that the homeowner is right next door (helped us figure out the tv controls, which are a bit tricky). We appreciated and enjoyed the basket of "first breakfast" and snack items.

  a guest from Cascade, MD recommends this vacation rental

  It was one of a kind! The San Juan Islands are like being in another country. And Water View Place was the icing on the cake. We arrived to this well appointed yet comfy cozy home and the whales were feeding in the Haro Strait. They visited mulitple times a day some times and almost every day! The home is masterful design with fine finishes. The owners and their sweet puppy make you feel right at home, but do not hoover :). We will most certainly be back.

  George C from Parker, Co recommends this vacation rental

  A lovely home in an idyllic rural setting. Very bright, cheery, and open layout with pretty water views. Furnishings and decorations were comfortable and welcoming. Home was spotless with many nice touches such as fluffy towels and local lavender soap in the bathrooms. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking and we were welcomed with fresh bread and coffee upon arrival.
  
  This was our favorite area of San Juan island with the coastal hikes of American camp nearby. We would undoubtedly recommend this special place!

  Simply put, we loved it. Loved the location and it provided easy access to everything on the island. It was perfect and just what we wanted - A quiet out of the way location that overlooked the water. It was beautiful. Plenty of room, nice facilities, and very clean. We saw orcas almost every day. Great privacy and perfect for our family of four.

  Water View Place is a lovely property in a perfect location. Photos give an accurate feel for the house - it's in "like new" condition. Whales were spotted from the balcony on multiple days : )
