Though we enjoy meeting our guests in person, we offer a contactless checkin with a keypad code for the front door. Please reach out with any questions or concerns. We are available each day during normal business hours of 8 am- 6 pm, and 24/7 for emergencies.

Perched on a hillside overlooking Eastsound, our charming cottage offers the perfect balance of privacy and convenience.

🏡 Best of Both Worlds – An “in-town” feel with a peaceful, rural atmosphere.

We say our cottage is impeccable because in only 300 sq ft you have all you need in a spacious and elegant interior. Designed and renovated by an amazing local boat builder, every space was consciously created.

Our cottage kitchen is the shining example of how to blend efficiency and functionality. Featuring a full-sized electric Avanti stovetop and oven with a microwave mounted above, and a large stainless steel, modern sink, you can effortlessly make any meal. We've hosted guests for Thanksgiving that boasted how they did a full course meal with ease!
You’ll find plenty of kitchen gadgets, including a blender, hand mixer, cookware, and bakeware to create your favorite meals. Enjoy our coffee bar stocked with Pete's coffee, teas, stevia, sugar, and creamer, along with both a drip coffeemaker and French press, and a coffee grinder. We even have spices and oil in the cabinets! Plus, there’s a full-sized refrigerator with a freezer, and a stackable Blomberg washer and dryer—just note that there’s no dishwasher, so hand washing is required.

In the living room, relax on the comfy loveseat or swivel chair while enjoying views through the French doors to the deck and water beyond. Curl up with a throw blanket to stream your favorite movies on the Smart TV or play some board games. The sofa also has a pull-out twin bed with linens for an extra guest.

The queen bed is tucked into its own private nook, featuring a sturdy Captain's bed frame for extra storage and a small closet for hanging clothes. We even provide a small iron and board!

The custom-tiled bathroom offers a large shower and vanity with all the amenities you need, plus plenty of towels.

Outside, enjoy dining alfresco at the bistro table and chairs, and fire up the gas BBQ—we provide a full tank and tools, so just bring your secret sauce recipe! 🍔

With fast, reliable WiFi speeds up to 50 Mbps, this is a fantastic 'work-cation' cottage for digital nomads!

Perfect getaway place with a beautiful view. So conveniently located too.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Oct 2025
Walk to town was on shoulder of busy road but it was a nice short walk for sure. Ceiling fan blades need a much needed cleaning as well as the kitchen sink grates. The bathroom heater is let's say not worth using. Overall the cottage was a nice place to stay.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2025
Excellent host and a location (and view) that can’t be beat! The deck was particularly nice at any time of day. Would definitely stay here again.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2025
Perfect and cozy for our needs over a very hopping last week of summer. Could get to everywhere and just above the busy life of the town. Walking distance to town and serene.All amenities and fully stocked kitchen. Very easy and I would definitely recommend!
