Great place on beautiful Guemes island!
This was a beautiful property on Guemes Island, just across the water from Anacortes. The house had ample space for the 7 of us for the 4th of July weekend (easily could have fit more very comfortably). The hosts were fantastic and very responsive, and we had a lovely stay!

Fantastic home, fantastic property, fantastic coast
Not much more you can ask for in a rental home on Vrbo. Fully stocked bathrooms, kitchen, and games/TV rooms. We very much enjoyed our time here. Beach access is a three minute drive away. Kids loved it. Charged my car (oops, sorry!) from the outdoor wall outlet, without issue. Would certainly book again!

Spectacular “Hideaway”!! On Guemes Island
We stayed five wonderful nights at this special hidden retreat on Hideaway Lane. Lovely views, amazing deck. Lots of room. The photos on VRBO do not do justice to how beautifully decorated and spacious the home is. The view of the bay and night sky were spectacular!! The host is prompt, helpful, a good communicator. Many Thanks for making this home available for us; we had a fabulous gathering and created family memories for the decades!!

AMAZING! MUST BOOK!
We had an absolutely wonderful time staying in this VRBO. Our friends were getting married on the island and we all want to be able to come together as we are all coming from different states. It’s nice because everything is about 10 minutes away. The house was very clean and spacious and honestly we exceeded our expectations, if I ever come back to the island, I will 100% be staying here I’m so grateful for the time we are able to spend in the VRBO and the memories we made here.

This house is beautiful in a nice tucked away area. To be honest we thought it was quite a bit better than the pictures show, so that's a great thing! Quick ferry across to Anacortes and a lovely place for a family getaway.

Great weekend away on a quiet island
We loved the property - super relaxing and was perfect for a quiet weekend away. The one area that wasn't ideal was the hot tub cleanliness. It felt like it hadn't been cleaned in a while, but was still usable.

Guemes Island Property
First off, the owner was amazing. He was in contact with us throughout our reservation process and answered any questions we had quickly. He was great to work with and quickly addressed a situation immediately. We found that to be an asset to the entire rental process. The house was huge and was laid out very nicely for our needs. The downstairs was where we spent a lot of time on the warm summer days. Games, books, CDs, and TVs were available, as well as a good laundry setup. There were two outdoor eating areas with ample chairs. We enjoyed the large dining table for meals, visiting, and games.

Great house, has everything you need
The house and location are great. Very quiet with a nice view. It is obvious the owners also use their house, as it is fully stocked with all of the cooking equipment you need. None of the typical shoddy pots and pans that are all scratched up, sure there are some. but also several sized of cast iron pans, so cooking is no problem. The street outside is gravel with some pot holes, but really no access issues. On Guemes, you pretty much need to bring everything you want to eat. The store has a little bit and a small restaurant, but for the most part it is cooking at home. We particularly enjoyed the pool table and there were several comfy areas to hang out. Can't find a fault and would recommend this house to anyone heading there.

Holiday Getaway
The house & location were perfect for our family of 5 - could definitely accomodate a larger party. Any issues we had were addressed quickly by Chris & he was very helpful. We were within walking distance of 2 beaches that were both beautiful & fun for our dog, Roxi. The kitchen had all of the dishes & cooking items we needed for our week long stay which was nice. We loved the big table in the main room - perfect for the 1500 piece puzzle we brought & good for our many games. The card table downstairs was also used for card games & we enjoyed playing pool as well. Hot tubbing in the snow capped off our nice getaway.

Unexpected great visit
Not sure what to expect first time visiting this island. The island was great the VRBO was better than that. Plenty of room for everyone to play pool skip bo to go find a place to read. We enjoyed sitting in the hot tub and watching a eagle fly over. We enjoyed walking the neighborhood everyone was so friendly. Will always have great memories of this trip.

An Idyllic Island Retreat
Chris is a kind and accommodating host who provided great local information and was easily reachable for questions! His home is exactly as described; the hosts went above and beyond to make our family group feel welcome. The home was spotlessly clean, spacious and comfortable. Chris has a beautifully landscaped front and back yards with seating for coffee or meal. It’s a great spot in a beautiful and quiet location, deer wandered through the backyard frequently! We enjoyed the hot tub, walking to the general store and the hike up Guermes Mountain Trail as well as easy access to other islands via the Washington State Ferry System. Highly Recommend!

Perfect for family reunion
Home is in excellent condition as well as all furnishings. With a 9 month old crawling infant we brought our own sturdy gate for the stairs from main floor, portacrib/sheets and highchair (shipped from Amazon to relative in Bellingham who brought it with him to the rental). Worked great. Gardeners will appreciate the beautifully landscaped areas. Pool table is excellent. LOTS of jigsaw puzzles, some games some books and LOTS of DVD's. Ferry wasn't much of an issue as we planned and shopped ahead for food. Lots of beer/wine sold at on island one store. Kitchen is terrific and is stocked with anything you could need (except a Keurig coffee maker) and there are lots of accumulated spices in pantry. Well designed and built home--areas for small chats as well as entire group. Very well insulated for sound between floors/rooms. The front entry mudroom was perfect for all those shoes and coats! Lovely hikes for all ability levels on the island. Beautiful woods all around the house with wonderful decking. A good VRBO find!

Great Vacation on Guemes
This was a great house for our family as there was room for all 12 of us. We spent a lot of time on the back deck and in the backyard. The kitchen had everything we needed and the beds were comfortable. We spent a couple of days on the beach at Longs Bay and we had it to ourselves. Note that timing with the ferry can be tricky.
