The house was good for all our family needs. Good location on the island. Kayaks were nice. Just like previous reviews the 2nd full bathroom is in the garage that is not attached, and yes an eye mask to keep the light out of your eyes for whoever is in the Murphy bed.

This property makes our stay in San Juan so relaxing and enjoyable. The location to the marina is an easy walk. Karen communicates very well and is always easy to contact. The house has everything you need for a week stay.

This house suited our family of 5 very well. We enjoyed the somewhat remote location (remote being a stretch seeing that it was a 15 minute drive pretty much anywhere on the island!) It was a treat to be located directly adjacent to the Snug Harbor resort where we could snag an espresso in the morning or go out on their pier to see the sunsets. I wish getting to the water was easier on the property; the addition of a pier will be a game changer! Our kids did use the kayaks one day and we booked an excursion that launched from the Snug Harbor marina another day. The house is very comfortable. The primary bedroom has an attached half bath and the full bath is directly outside of both bedrooms. Sharing was a not a big deal for us. One of our boys slept on the murphy bed in the game room – we bought an eye mask because the sunlight is pretty fierce at 6 am! Definitely plan on bringing one! Above all else, the boys were OBSESSED with the ping pong table and mom and dad enjoyed the firepit on the deck morning and night. SJI was a 10/10! We would come again.

My family loved our relaxing long weekend at this waterfront home. The big yard was a surprising highlight! The house itself had everything we needed and was very comfortable. We would definitely book again!

Nice location, very quiet. Very clean, well equipped, and spacious. Everyone enjoyed the ping pong table. Only issue was losing WiFi connection frequently. Ended up using personal hotspot from my phone.

What a wonderful home and location. The horn is outfitted with everything you might need and the kayaks were such an added bonus. Our sister reunion was enhanced by this lovely home and location

My only complaint is that it was not clear in the description that the 2nd full bath is actually not located in the main house, that the garage is a separate building and not attached to the house. Otherwise it was a beautiful place, fully stocked with everything one could want or need and we loved the ping pong table! We had an issue with the ice maker and the owner came by with some crab legs and a bag of ice for us as an apology!

We were on the islands for the first time to attend three evening wedding events. Staying at this home allowed all of us to explore or relax in between. We all did a bit of each. Night gatherings on the deck with all of the lights off allowed us to see shooting stars, the Milky Way, and create lovely memories.
From start to finish, communication was excellent, had a chance to say hi to the owners and we would so definitely stay here again is we had opportunity to be here again.

Perfect house on the water to experience the beauty of SJI. Has everything our family could’ve wanted. The location is beautiful, the access to the bay and the kayaks available to use were the icing on the cake. Magnificent windows throughout the whole house to enjoy the view. Ping pong table made my teen boys very happy. Hope we can stay here again some day. 10 out of 10!

Family gathering before our daughters wedding on the island. Spacious, beautiful and welcoming home. Ping pong table and game room was a hit along with the large balcony to enjoy the beauty of Snug Harbor! Would return and highly recommend it.

The Outback was just perfect for our San Juan Island visit. It was extremely clean and comfortable and we enjoyed all the amenities—gas barbecue, fire pit, well-appointed kitchen, and especially the kayaks. Thank you for a lovely time.

Excellent property, convenient, great location, wonderful working with the property manager. One nice item we appreciated was that there were enough paper goods for our stay, even though we always bring extra. Recommend this highly!

Everything was as advertised. One of the best stocked VRBO's we have ever stayed in. The owners even answered our phone call while out on a boat and walked us through logging in to their YouTube account so we could watch NBA finals.

Better than expected!
Photos don't do it justice. Beautiful property with lots of space to play outside. We brought bocce and cornhole and had a blast. The game room and firepit was perfect for evening entertainment. Kitchen was well equipped with lots of dishes and amenities. Would stay here again!

A wonderful house in a beautiful corner of the island
This house has everything and more. Very well designed and decorated space. Lots of amenities, state of the appliances(including a gigantic TV) and nicely maintained yard. Unfortunately we could not enjoy the deck and the yard much because of the weather, but they are very nice. The host is very responsive and extremely gracious to requests. We highly recommend the place and would love to come back and stay here again.

Perfect vacation home!
I was hesitant to book a home with no ratings yet, but there weren't many options available on short notice. I am so glad I did! This house was perfect: exceptionally clean, comfortable, and stocked with every possible thing we could need. We really appreciated the attention to detail, including having the Murphy bed made up in advance for my son. The house is the perfect size for a parent or two plus a couple of kids. My teens loved the ping pong table and lounging on the huge sofa. The kitchen is a dream.
Location was quiet and beautiful. You will need a car if you plan to go back and forth to Friday Harbor - 8 miles one way is a bit too far for most people to walk/bike to the grocery store or restaurants on a daily basis.
Communication with the host was exceptional. Thank you so much! We will be back!

Beautiful, quiet, and relaxing getaway
This home is beautiful, tucked away in a lush forest, right on the waterfront, and a perfect place for a relaxing getaway. We spent five nights enjoying the peace and quiet. Easy to get to and from Friday Harbor (around 15 minutes by car), and all the surrounding sights. The home is well appointed, and had everything we needed to maximize our stay. Definitely best suited to groups of four or less, but with four adults we weren’t struggling with anything - just have to coordinate showering. All in all, this is a fantastic spot to unwind and just enjoy what San Juan Island and Friday Harbor have to offer.
