Clean, quiet, and within easy walking distance to everything in Eastsound.

We enjoyed our time at the Wisteria Cottage! The cottage was very nicely decorated and quite convenient to Eastbound restaurants and businesses as well as the library, parks, and beaches. Our kids were enchanted by the daily visits by deer to the orchard. We enjoyed hikes around Mountain Lake and Turtleback Mountain and to the beaches and swimming in Lake Cascade. We cooked for most of our meals and found the kitchen in the cottage had just about everything we needed (though some olive oil and tea would have been much appreciated!) A perfect place for a small family to stay and enjoy all that Orcas has to offer!

Mr. and Mrs. Nelson were extremely accommodating to our little family during our stay at the Wisteria Cottage. First impression as you enter the front door is...charm. The home has been beautifully remodeled and freshened up, but maintained its authenticity you would expect in an older home. It was very clean when we arrived as well. The orchards on the property add to its beauty and frequency of furry neighbors (deer, rabbits). My children LOVED their little room and running around the expansive yard. Although it is off a main road, the traffic noise was minimal and the property's natural border distance from the road created some security for the children. It's a perfect place to stay if you're hoping to be central to all Eastsound has to offer visitors.

Especially for a first time visit to the San Juans and Orcas like for us, the location cannot be beat. Eastsound is the main village on the island for services,restaurants,etc - all easy strolls from the home. Convenient since public parking in town seems to be a daily challenge. Great launching pad for island hopping, sight seeing, etc. Cottage itself was very clean, highly functional and tastefully appointed. Works fine for any family of 3 or 4 who don't mind sharing a single bathroom. Owners were very responsive and friendly with every question and request. Would definitely rent again.
