About this house rental
Our location is private and peaceful, yet close to all the amenities of the main village of Eastsound. The property lies at the base of Buck Mtn., and is one of the original homesteads on the island. Our orchard is one of the few surviving from 1895 - most of the apple and pear trees (30+) are still robust producers! The original foundation is just behind the garden. The cottage was finished in 2016 by Orcas locals, using local wood. The heat is radiant in-floor- we appreciate the quiet and convenience of it . We also took care to provide appliances: full size refrigerator; full size oven w/ stovetop; full size washer dryer; dishwasher. For babies: high chair and Graco Pack n Play. Bathroom amenities include: towels, TP, hair dryer, liquid shampoo and conditioner. The beds (queen downstairs and king upstairs) are very comfy. Extra sheets, throws and blankets are stored in the downstairs bedroom closet. There is a picnic table for you to enjoy eating in the orchard, a porch to hang out and watch the deer graze; outdoor rockers and lounging chairs, and a bbq. There are games and badminton games in the outdoor storage bin next to the cottage: bocce ball, corn hole, etc. Wireless internet is also available, as well as a TV for streaming. We have lived on Orcas for over 30 years (my husband, Jim, even longer) and raised our two kids here. We look forward to hosting you at The Cottage in the Orchard, happy to share our knowledge of our community! We have an active vr permit with San Juan County.

We loved the seclusion of the property and such a lovely setting with the apple and pear orchard around. The cabin is set up with great amenities that all were in working order.

I stayed here with my mom and we both loved it! The property is quiet and set back from the road for privacy. The owners live nearby, and are very responsive via text. Eastsound is a quick drive away, maybe a 30 minute walk for the adventurous. We loved having this little spot to retreat to at the end of the day. Thank you!

This place is only a few minutes from the town, but a world away. It is in an old apple orchard. The unit is a separate building from the owners, but you won’t see their house u less you’re loooking out of the back windows. There’s a great porch with 4 chairs to relax and watch the many deer that visit the yard. The interior seems to be new, with a farmers sink and induction stove. The bathroom is very modern too. We had 4 adults staying, and the only downside is that it was a little tight for the 4 of us in the common areas. Still, it was worth dealing with that for the peace and quiet of this lovely cabin. I hope to return to Orcas Island and to stay in this great rental again.
