Boathouse on Orcas Island

A cozy vacation rental cabin right on the beach of a protected bay, one of the San Juan Island’s most beautiful waterfront settings. You’ll be able to step off your spacious deck onto Orcas’ finest no-bank, smooth pebble beach – you’re truly just a couple strides from high tide! Local artisans were commissioned to handcraft the interior in environmentally-friendly native materials including site-harvested cedar planking, spalted alder flooring, and the radiant-heated pebble bathroom floor.

Custom-made furniture includes a sculpted juniper driftwood bench, an alder blanket chest night stands, and a headboard made of teak reclaimed from an old boat. The cabin is a very intimate space richly detailed with reframed original doors, wrought-iron with beach stone door knobs and hooks, and aged rough-sawn millwork throughout.

The well-implemented kitchenette includes a custom-designed hutch of recycled Orcas wood and a striking countertop made of ironwood re-purposed from the old ferry landing. The bay-window dining nook provides dawn-to-dusk exciting views, a live-edge cedar dining table, and comfortable seating for up to 6 adults.There are water views from each bedroom, where you will experience the peaceful Island nights from the luxury of beds with pillow-top mattresses, down comforters, and high-count organic linens. A built-in “Captain’s bed” piled high with comfy pillows creates the intimacy of the 2nd bedroom area.
