Songbird Retreat is a lovely place to stay on San Juan Island. Quiet and private. Very clean and comfortable. Great hosts.

everything was beautiful. everything you would want in a cosy home away from home. nestled in the trees and so very quiet a short distance from friday harbor

Owners next door, so very friendly and helpful. Just needs a bigger bed. Saw a black and red fox playing in the mornings, and watched fireworks from our balcony. Very nice.

The property was very private and you could see the stars at night. No light pollution. The hosts were friendly.

This was exactly as described! Close to everything but peaceful and private. Our hosts were charming and helpful. I can’t think of a better place to have stayed while visiting this amazing island. My extensive research paid off because this place was perfect! Incredibly clean, comfy bed and great space to come to at the end of the day!

We can't say enough nice things about this place and our hosts Marcy and Ralph. The guest house itself was clean, spacious, and luxurious. We felt at home from the moment we stepped in the door. The property is in the middle of the woods, so it was wonderfully quiet. I enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen, and my husband and I enjoyed eating outside on the deck overlooking the woods and peek-a-boo views of the ocean. The guest house is only a couple of miles from Friday Harbor, so it was easy to drive into town and dine at a restaurant or get on a whale watching tour. The island is small enough that we could drive anywhere in less than half an hour. Our hosts Marcy and Ralph were respectful of our privacy, but, by the time we left, we felt like they had become wonderful friends. We found out that the guest house was decorated with furniture and furnishings from Marcy's mother, which gave the home an especially warm, personal feel. My husband and I did not want to leave when the week was over, and we are already dreaming of taking another vacation here!
