The property is in a great location with wonderful sunsets. It is spacious and The kitchen well appointed and beds comfortable. The pool table upstairs was awesome and a nice surprise. The bad news, The property was not very clean. The kitchen floors were sticky, dead flies everywhere in the corners of the home the siding chair backs were filthy, and the deck and cushions had Leaves and pines needles all over. There was garbage in the trash compactor from prior owner. I let the property manager know and they offered to send someone to clean. We didn’t feel comfortable having an unknown person come in during covid into the house. All this should have been done and checked before we got there. The house is tired with items needing repair or upgrades. Overall my family enjoyed the house. It was a nice getaway that was roomy.

Very good process and easy to deal with.

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Disappointing. The house was completely dark inside & out making it very difficult to find the keys & enter in the pouring rain. The temp inside the house was 48 degrees it took over 4 hours to get it to 68. Totally unacceptable for the arrival of winter guests. There were spiderwebs all over the house & the master bath cabinets were dirty. Everything that previous guests have noted broken for the last 2 years WERE STILL BROKEN! There were labels claiming they were under repair but obviously they are not. There was a window blind in the master completely missing, allowing a neighbor to look into the bedroom if they wanted. Clearly neither the owner nor the management care about the upkeep of this house or the comfort of their guests. Its a great view but that doesn't make up for the condition.

The house was clean, well-appointed, with amazing views of the Haro Straits and nearby parks and beaches. We enjoyed the pool table and karaoke machine. The hot water was a little limited, but otherwise the home was perfect! The management company was terrific: we left behind a belonging and they found it promptly and mailed it to us. We cant wait to come back!

Winter stay at this Fabulous location with amazing views of the Haro Straits. Lovely home with pool table and karaoke! The only small glitch was insufficient hot water. Otherwise a perfect stay !

When we arrived at the house, many of the bushes and trees were overgrown. There are branches hanging across the entry stairs that make it almost impossible to hold onto the railing as you’re going up the stairs. 2.Once in the house, it became quickly apparent that the kitchen floor was so sticky... my brother had to mop the floors. 3.Many of the items in the kitchen were dirty. My sister in law and I had to scrub out both crock pots before we could use them. Many of the appliances are worn out and there are pans I would never use because the Teflon is completely worn off. Most of the seasonings were old and almost empty. There was no salt and pepper in the house so we bought some and filled up the shakers and left what we bought there for the next person. 4.The dishwasher racks are broken. The bottom rack is missing a wheel and it was difficult to load the dishwasher and get the rack back in the dishwasher. 5.There are mice. After the first day we found mice droppings all over the counters and we saw them other places in the house. 6.We saw that the ice maker in the fridge and handle in the shower were broken. The disappointing thing about that was, it appears this was reported in a review 2 years prior and it was still broken. 7.Part of the draw to the house was the outdoor fire pit... so we brought up a container of wood only to find out, we weren’t allowed to use the fire pit until October. All while everyone at the park had a fire every night. I feel we should have been notified that wouldn’t be available. 8.The other reason we picked the house was because of the “private cove”.. but it seems like there really wasn’t a private cove and that it was shared with the guests from the park. This place is just not kept up. The view is remarkable... the deck is amazing... everything else was pretty disappointing. Especially for the amount of money we spent. Also, this p

The kids played at the beach, the adults enjoyed the spectacular views from the huge windows and deck, we cooled festive meals in the large, well-stocked kitchen. The property manager was super helpful and friendly.

Breezes through the tall fir trees, water lapping on the beach below, the sailboats and fishing boats and kayaks passing by on the water--it was magical!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed the house. It had room for a larger family like ours, which can be hard to find. The kitchen was well-stocked with cooking supplies and the right appliances - even a waffle iron! The deck was great - we used it a lot. The only complaint we had was that it was described as having a "private" beach. It wasn't private at all. The beach was shared by the adjacent county park, and park guests used the whole beach. They were polite and the park was not a drawback in any other way, but it wasn't the beach we were hoping for. It was also fairly difficult to get to the beach, making kayaking less enjoyable. If you want a roomy house in a nice setting, this would be a great fit. If you want a nice house with easy beach access that is reasonably private, this might disappoint.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is perfect for whale watching. We could watch the orcas swim past from our lovely deck. We basically lived on the deck. It has a great grill and good furniture. There are tons of windows looking out on the water. It is away from the touristy feeling area. The house has everything you could need including a surprising number of spices, but could use some updates. The carpet needs to go. It feels a bit greasy and there is a musty smell downstairs. Also, the kitchen is huge, but the enormous island in the middle makes it almost impossible to get past others working in there. If you have pet allergies this is not the house for you. There was a good bit of dog hair in multiple places upon arrival even though the house had just been cleaned. We have pets back home; so, it wasn't a huge deal for us, but maybe a stronger vacuum should be used.

I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Virtually everything in this house is in some level of disrepair. From broken locks, broken lights, broken chairs, broken handles, broken windows, broken ice maker, broken warming tray, broken shower handles...the list is endless. The rugs are old and stained...the roof leaks...all the smoke detectors are missing. The management company is sympathetic, but not particularly helpful (they had the wrong codes for the lock box and the wifi!) Mostly, all the broken stuff was just an inconvenience. The view is lovely, but it's lovely from a lot of other places too, for less money and fewer problems.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It's hard to imagine there could be a home on the island with a more spectacular view! If we were at the house, we were outside on the deck enjoying the view, enjoying a glass of San Juan wine, watching a harbor seal in the cove below us, dolphins, ships & sailboats passing, deer roaming all around the house. Even after dark, we sat outside & enjoyed a sky full of stars and ships passing silently in the dark. There was an island burn ban in effect, so we were unable to use the lower firepit or the deck firepit. Would have been lovely on chilly evenings. The top two floors of the home are gorgeous. The lower floor is in need of a paint job and new carpet (or at least a thorough carpet was dirty!), but the bed was very comfortable. Clearly, the home is a work in progress...the first two floors are completed and the lower floor is next. There were a few items in disrepair (icemaker, deck umbrella, trash compactor, warming oven)...just minor inconveniences. We enjoyed every moment in this home and are already planning our next stay. I am Canadian and loved looking across Haro Strait to Vancouver Island. We fell in love with this island and cannot wait to return!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home has a gorgeous view of the Haro Strait with beach access. It was great to store our kayaks down there for the ease of going out and returning, and it is a short distance to Lime Kiln with it's often abundance of marine animals. It has a good layout for a large group, large kitchen and great room, expansive deck. It does need someone in the management to go through and identify things that need fixing. Also it was clear the carpeting needed cleaning. Otherwise a wonderful San Juan house.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house had great space for a family get together with a large dining table that fit 8 people, many sitting spaces to relax and play games and a pool table. The deck had a fire place along with a fire pit that over looked the water with a great view of a Wildlife Refuge for animals mostly birds. The kitchen was well equipped to cook for the family along with a barbeque outside. The house is next door to the county park where a person can put in a kayak and a short drive to Lime Kiln State Park, the best place to watch for orcas. Unfortunately the resident population is not frequenting the area due to the lack of food - the salmon. Had a great time on the island and the house was perfect for our family celebration.

We loved the views; saw whales from the deck. Gathering on the deck was our favorite spot; wasn't sure we would spend time in the house at all until it rained and then we enjoyed hanging out together in the spacious living room and playing pool in the loft. Definitely recommend this house; loved our time on the San Juan Island and coming back to the house to recharge for the next excursion! All family members agreed it was the perfect Smithcation location. A great time was had by all!!!
