About this house rental

Davis House on the Bay

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Stunningly situated on the shores of Fisherman Bay, this waterfront home on Lopez Island is a place to take in gorgeous views of nightly sunsets over San Juan Island, the Haro Strait, and the islands of British Columbia beyond.

This bayfront home is a piece of Lopez Island history, named for the man who built it in 1974. Captain Leonard Davis was one of the foremost maritime navigation pilots in Puget Sound and a member of a family of early settlers on the island. He chose this spot as the site of his retirement for the lovely weather, winds, tides, and view of the ferries coming and going from Friday Harbor.

Inside, you'll find this view showcased in nearly every room, allowing you to watch the tides ebb and flow and observe bald eagles and otters passing through. The central living space is upstairs, including a living room with a wood-burning fireplace and a TV, an adjacent dining room for eight that's warmed by the backside of the fireplace, and an eat-in kitchen with every essential. There's a second large living room downstairs - a wonderful spot to curl up by the fire and settle in for a night of board games.

The outdoor spaces are equally inviting, including a small balcony overlooking the bay, a patio that runs the length of the house, and a spacious backyard with a nature path to explore. Take a scenic stroll down to the spit at sunset and cap the evening with marshmallows and stories around the firepit.

Great views and lots of comfy room.

We continually come back to the Davis House for our friend’s weekend (4 nights actually). The house is perfect for our needs and it had all of the amenities that we needed in the kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms. The view is absolutely amazing. The house doesn’t have A/C so we had to keep the windows open to keep the house cool (yes, there are screens on the windows) so this made the mornings a little noisy because of the road/cars. We’ll come back for sure.

We loved staying here! It was clean, fresh-smelling, and the views were beautiful. We loved being so close to town and the kitchen was well-stocked and organized. Plenty of bed linens and towels.

My partner and I, and two adult children came here for a belated Thankgiving, choosing this dog friendly house for the view and amenities. No disappointment in the 70's vibe or the view! Beds were comfortable. Agree with a previous commenter on the addition of a smart tv, and would add a refresh of the kitchen cookware. A grill would be a nice addition, in this house so very suitable for larger groups. Frustrating though to read recent reviews regarding the heat issue and to see that our complaint of the same was already well known. We arrived in the early evening on a sub freezing day to find the power out to the kitchen and dining areas (corrected by a flip of the breaker, which we had access to only after contacting the property manager). The inside house temp was no more than 50 degrees as all of the heaters had been turned off - individual baseboard heaters and thermostats in every room which would have been a quirk worth understanding. The baseboards in the kitchen and dining areas (our main desired gathering place) as well as the basement game room area were not functional until day 3 when a maintenance person literally wiggled a loose wire in the dining room unit back into place. My welcome letter stated that firewood would be provided - it was not - and we payed for multiple bundles of the high priced firewood from the store. The Davis House is not at all a bad spot, but shouldn't be available for rent until the heat issue is addressed.
