Relax every evening in your hot tub enjoying world class sunsets.
1,200 sf custom designed cedar sided cozy bungalow with a very efficient wood stove to enjoy when ambiance and warmth are the inspiration. Propane forced-air heat provided throughout home. Relax in our toasty outdoor hot tub and enjoy world famous sunsets on the Westside of San Juan Island.

There is plenty to do in the neighborhood with beach access at Snug Harbor Resort. Bird watching is superb, with resident Harlequin ducks and a nearby active Bald eagle's nest.

A really great place, better than expected from the pictures.
On laundry, I fully expect the need to get the washing going on sheets and towels etc. prior to departure,
Be aware, drying and folding was also expected, so allow yourselves plenty of time to avoid the extra cleaning fees.

The perfect spot for my family of 4, plus 2 small dogs! The house had everything we needed and more than enough room for everyone to sleep. Joining the songbirds on the deck with my morning coffee was so peaceful and the sunset views cannot be beat.

Great views. Great hot tub. Well stocked kitchen for cooking utensils. Great hot water. It was a sweet quiet place. We got used to the high bed. Nice touch to have bird seed for the feathered visitors.
5.0 / 5.0
The house is very comfortable and it had everything we needed. The platform bed was a bit too tall for us so we used the trundle beds downstairs which were comfortable. All in all, I would highly recommend this place.
5.0 / 5.0
We had a great quiet visit to this cozy cabin. We relaxed and read books while watching the boats and clouds go by over Haro Strait. A short (though hilly) walk down to Snug Harbor for coffee and pastries in the morning. San Juan County park and Lime Kiln State park are a short drive to the south for more bbeach access and whale watching opportunities. The cabin has a grill and all the kitchen utensils needed to prepare your meals. One thing of note is that the bed is very tall, like five feet. There are step stools to get on/off the bed, but if you have mobility issues, it's something to be aware of. Enjoy your stay

We enjoyed our stay on San Juan Island. The property is beautiful the home is well stocked for cooking and is such a comfortable space for relaxing. The view from the deck is so beautiful you could just spend your time looking out at the view. We went to the following parks, American Camp, Cattle Point saw baby foxes, English Camp, Lime Kiln and San Juan Island Park saw orcas from this park. We enjoyed our time at all of them. We had clams and mussels at Downriggers Restaurant in Friday Harbor and breakfast one morning at the Rocky Bay Cafe all were excellent!!

This is our second time staying in this quiet, relaxing waterside home. It has everything you need and more. A beautiful waterfront view, wood stove to keep you warm, spectacular view from the upstairs bedroom and an outdoor jacuzzi’. It’s our fav place to visit and relax and unwind. The owner takes well care of it and provides everything you need. Highly recommend staying at Marine Resort!

Photos don’t do justice to the views from the house. Wonderfully dog-friendly. Great host. Clean and well-equipped house. Cozy and quiet during the off-season. Easy access to hikes with breathtaking views.

This house is amazing. It feels very homey and comfortable. The view is incredible and we even saw the big dipper through the skylight over the bed. The house is nicely furnished and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The shower is really nice and the hot tub was clean and ready to use. The bed was also super comfortable and had plenty of pillows. Karen was also very helpful and made us feel right at home. We'll definitely be back.

We stayed 3 night's. It was a wonderful stay. Karen is a fantastic hostess - friendly, kind and very helpful. The place is amazing... well stocked, comfortable and water views. Also, Karen is one of the few VRBO renters to allow pets, so it was wonderful to bring my dog along. Definitely will go back again and can't wait until we do! Fantastic experience!
5.0 / 5.0
We really loved staying here. The home is cozy and well-appointed with everything you might need. It really feels like you're staying in a home, with all the comforts. The view over the water is gorgeous. I really enjoyed sitting out on the deck in the early morning, wrapped up in a blanket and drinking coffee. The forest sounds were very soothing. I loved the peaceful setting.
The logistics of our stay were very smooth and communication before our arrival was perfect. The home was clean and stocked up. It was easy to find and a quick drive from everything (ferry, Friday harbor, Roche harbor, etc.), but the neighborhood itself is very quiet.
The one thing to know is the bed in the upstairs is on a platform that raises the bed's surface up to about 3.5 feet off the ground. You can see it in the photos. The bed itself was very comfy. But if you have mobility issues or concerns about heights, you might not feel comfortable. We knew what to expect, but I could see how it might not be great if climbing up a step stool is difficult for you.
We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this home to anyone wanting to explore San Juan.

My girlfriend and I (plus our dogs) stayed the weekend at the cabin, mainly as a base of operations for hiking and exploring. The cabin is close to the main house, but not so close that it compromises privacy. The cabin is clean, well kept and fully furnished and has an excellent view of the waterline to the west.
We liked that we had the option to clean up ourselves and retain the security deposit, especially since we mainly just slept and showered there.
Some things to note for other renters: there is a long wooden staircase leading down to the property, so keep that in mind if you're not able bodied. Also, the master bed upstairs is 4ft off the ground and has two step stools to access.... if you roll out of bed a lot, well... consider sleeping downstairs on the hide-a-bed. Oh, and there is a skylight directly over the master bed which might be obnoxious in the long light of summer. We didn't mind any of the above, but its worth mentioning to those who might.
All in all, great stay, great host and great property!

The Palmer's are amazing, onsite hosts wth a dream-worthy cabin on the Haro Strait. We came for Thanksgiving with the kids and had an absolutely fantastic time. Cannot say enough good things about this place including THE AMAZING elevated bed and wood burning stove. So grateful for all of the little, thoughtful touches too. We will be back!

We had a lovely time. The house was so cozy and the views amazing. We also brought our dog and loved the nice touches of provided dog bowls. They are not kidding that the master bedroom bed is high. It is at least 4 ft high, but it provides great views. The skylight also allows fabulous viewing of the stars at night. We will definitely be back. One packing note, the house has jute rugs in the kitchen which are nice, but are not super comfy on feet when cooking. We don't wear shoes inside, and the owner requests you don't as well. We wished had bought some slippers or flip flops for inside. Not a big deal but just a packing tip.

Our stay was short with everything from our expectations set through online listing all through the check out process exceeded our expectations. Loved being able to bring our dog! The space is delightful and fully stocked with all we needed. There's so much to do in the area and the online photos while stunning, are no comparison to in person views. As a personal preference, I would have preferred a standard height bed vs. the platform bed that requires a step stool, but it did not dampen our enthusiasm for this restful stay. It's so quiet, we saw deer each morning and eagles. The bird activity on the front deck is charming to watch. Highly recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed this island retreat. A lovely vase of fresh flowers greeted us on the dining room table. Beautiful views, welcoming decks to enjoy the scenery. Owner promptly answered our questions. Thoughtful touches provided throughout—dog towels, treats, poop bags, easy-to-clean surfaces, convenient washer/dryer, cleaning supplies. Nearby parks and beaches for dog walks, whale watching, stunning sunsets. Our only regret was we didn’t stay a week or more.

Nice views to the west, even from the hot tub! Comfortable, welcoming space and plenty of room for 2 of us and our dog. Kitchen well stocked with dishes and cooking needs. We only had a short weekend stay, but enjoyed the hot tub and living space in what little time we had between exploring the island and visiting friends. The bed was firm and really comfortable. Karen was great with communication and responding to questions before we arrived. Did not need to contact her with any issues during our stay. We would definitely stay here again! If you have mobility issues, know that the bed is very high (for the views I imagine) and is accessed with a small 2-step stool, and the parking is up above with a path of stairs down to the house.

Great Birthday Getaway, great location, beautiful accommodation , makes you feel right at home. The view is amazing I could stay on the deck all day, you see so much nature, and deer trekking through the driveway! Sunsets that are simply divine. Thank you Karen for the opportunity! Definitely will be coming back!

Loved our stay. House was very clean and the views are amazing. The sunrise/sunsets are incredible. Our favorite activity was sitting on deck. We enjoyed being away from the harbor and enjoyed the quiet neighborhood.
5.0 / 5.0
Was a good stay for two people. Very nice view of Haro Strait. Kitchen was very nicely outfitted. The stairs down to the unit and the very high bed are not the best for an older couple. Good place to stay if the stairs are not a problem.

Lovely spot!
