About this house rental
Waterfront! Beach Access! This beautiful home has spectacular water views and beach access.

This modern vacation home is located at Limestone Point in the northeast corner of San Juan Island. This quiet and secluded location feels a world away, yet minutes from nearby activities.

With the open layout, there is plenty of seating and counter space for everyone to be working in the kitchen, playing games in the dining room, or lounging nearby in the living room around the cozy gas fireplace. This home provides a children's booster seat as well as a highchair.
Whether you are relaxing on the large deck, lined with Adirondack chairs, or sitting in the cozy living room, you will enjoy panoramic views of San Juan Channel including Orcas and Shaw Islands with Mt. Baker in the background. San Juan Channel is a great spot for watching all kinds of vessels pass by. You may even see an occasional transient orca swim past the shoreline.

We had a wonderful time at this house! The house was beautifully maintained and well stocked, with thoughtful touches like blankets for the living room and deck. The view was out of this world, and the stairs down to the beach were east to navigate. We had a great time exploring the beach!

Our family totally enjoyed our week here. Spent a lot of time just sitting and watching the boats go by. There is small family of deer that like to visit, they are not shy about checking out the humans. Located within easy drive to reach store and restaurants. The washer and dryer was appreciated since my granddaughter liked to play on beach, she liked digging in the rocks. Would stay here again.

Wonderful house for our party of six. Beautiful location 20 minutes from Friday Harbor. Very clean and well equipped kitchen, however the outdoor grill does not heat over 300 degrees which caused some problems preparing dinner. Additionally we felt the check out time of 10am was a bit much.
4.7
Loved everything about the property except it was very hot inside by late morning until late evening. The thermostat appears to have a cool setting but the AC wouldn’t turn on. Even a standalone unit in the main living space would make the stay a lot more comfortable.

Our family loved the cozy home and waterfront view!!! The deck was the place we stayed most of the time when not out site seeing.. No need for a living room TV.The views were amazing, even saw orcas come through, right in front of the property!
4.7
Charming, mid century- all in all well renovated and decorated. Several things could be added: In the master bathroom, a towel rack and some hooks. In the kitchen, more coffee mugs and small plates. Family that was staying at another house came over for breakfast and there wasn't enough to serve them. And the (new) dishwasher holds a large amount. Would need to wash so often. We brought a lot of things not knowing what is supplied. A more detailed list would be good. Other than those minor but easy to fix things it was very nice, peaceful and scenic.

Reviewer Comments:
We decided to head up to San Juan last minute and this house was available for a few days so we booked it. It's a mid-century home that has been nicely remodeled w/amazing NE views, so it's not a super sunny lot. The location is a bit secluded - $30 taxi to Roche which is a 5 mile drive. The grounds were run down, but lawn was mowed. Overall I wouldn't stay here again. It was priced too high for the location, the overall property (view is amazing!), small beach & close proximaty to the neighbor who has a barky dog. The main photo was taken when it was a low tide so that's a bit deceiving. There is not much of a beach. Loved the house, but want to relocate it.

The waterfront location was perfect for watching beautiful sunrises, however the lack of curtains in the dining room created a blinding experience during breakfast. The master bedroom shower has no place for soap or shampoo. The other bathroom tub drain backs up due to slow drainage. There are no dressers in the two bedrooms other than the master bedroom. So no place to place belongings.

We loved our stay at the Limestone Beach Retreat. The location is peaceful and beautiful. The house was clean, well stocked and perfect for our family. We loved sitting out on the deck and saw a mom and baby deer in the yard and an otter (I think) out in the water just below. We hope to return!
4.7
The location was great and the views were spectacular. Kitchen was well stocked. We were very disappointed to find no shades or blinds in the master bedroom...only a sheer curtain that does not block any sun. Definitely would NOT recommend to families who need some sleep. Had I been warned I would have brought my own shades or chosen a different property. The cleaners were still cleaning the property at 3:59 pm for a 4 pm check which was strange to see a vehicle there when we arrived. The property advertises "Beach access!" but does not mention that the stairs down to the beach have been significantly damaged by a storm and are very unsafe.

Great beach house
We stayed here with my daughter’s family and 3 boys. They all loved the private beach by day and jigsaw puzzle at night. The house is a great location for proximity to Roche harbor and the sculpture park.
The beds are comfortable and kitchen well equipped. But the best part.? San Juan properties delivered the purse I had had left behind at the house, to me at the ferry dock! Would not accept any money for their inconvenience . Appreciated that so much.

The property management company was very communicative and responsive. We narrowly down to this house from a raft of others, and we made the right choice.

Reviewer Comments:
This house was lovely and well appointed. The yard and back deck are great for taking in a stunning view. We were able to access the beach via the property’s stairs but they are pretty rickety and need to be replaced. I wouldn’t recommend it for older guests. Overall we had a very comfortable and nice stay. Everything was clean and well put together.My feedback for the property management company is that the repeated emphasis on no early check in/late check out at a $200 fine is excessive and put a bad taste in our mouths before we even got there. It’s like “ok we get it, no need to bludgeon us with it”. Why not implement a policy of letting people know it’s unlikely that early arrival and late check outs can be accommodated due to Covid and other constraints but we will text guests the morning of to let them know if it is a possibility. One is more customer focused and honestly could have the same outcome (I.e. we can’t accommodate) but just sounds so much more welcoming and supportive of guests.

We rented a beautiful home on the water with beach access. The home was lovely and perfect for the 4 of us. The view from the deck was everything we hoped for including daily sightings of bald eagles! The kitchen was great for entertaining and fun family meals. Wonderful fireplace...even a Christmas tree to make it feel like more homey! Would definitely return to this property!

Everything was as described. Very comfortable, excellent facilities and wonderful views. Minor issues: The internet id in the emailed instructions was incorrect. However, the correct id was subsequently found next to the sofa . Internet worked fine. On day 2 the auto door lock feature stopped working. The property management helped us troubleshoot the problem and fix it. We look forward to returning!!
