Great stay at Waters Edge near Friday Harbor

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a very nice two-bedroom home. Nicely appointed kitchen and living room. The water views from most rooms and the deck are excellent. We watched Orcas swim by on our first night. The house is very clean and is well maintained. One suggestion would be to fix/improve the water pressure in the master shower. The water pressure from the faucets throughout the house and the upstairs bathroom are fine. Would stay here again.

Nice Location/Aged Property/Horrible Property Management

The property's location is out of town so you will need a car. Taxis on San Juan Island are unpredictable. The property needs a rehab/upgrade. There is one tv in the entire property which is the size of a PC monitor. San Juan Property Management is laughably incompetent. We rent houses all over the world and San Juan Property Management is the worst we have dealt with. Finally, for VRBO, why is it I agree with your terms and conditions, reserve a property (like this property) and THEN I receive San Juan Property's terms and conditions?

There are no blinds in the main bedroom, so bring your eye covers. The mattresses are also very soft and a bit uncomfortable.

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was gorgeous, we enjoyed it , but for all the 1000$ fees on top of the rental , the manager did not even welcome us with a bottle of wine, very stingy!coffee maker and toaster and pots and pans were very poor quality.Table ware was very nice. Manager unflexible about letting us leave at 11,,I am partially disable and had to wake up at 6 am to be able to leave by 10, actually left at 9:20 am. Covid is no longer an issue.arrival is at 4 pm so there was plenty of time to clean house. I would only reccommend if the person had no limitations to leave early.We liked hiking at english camp and visiting the sculpture park. we did not eat out.went what watching w safari tours. Bring warm clothes , sunny but cold wind.Enjoyed recipe books from owner.

Stunning views and great location, with some missing details.

I came from Seattle with my partner & in-laws who were visiting from out of state and wanted to see the islands. The property location is supreme, just a five minute drive from Friday Harbor, making grocery shopping, exploring, & accessing the ferry effortless. The home is beautiful with jaw-dropping views of the Salish Sea; you could spend hours sitting on the deck watching the light change with the passing sun; on our first evening we even saw two humpback whales swimming by. Kitchen was spacious and well-stocked, and we appreciated the books and thoughtful touches throughout. My primary comments for improvement would be some thoughtful updates to sleeping accommodations. Both mattresses felt old, creaky, and misshapen after presumed years of use, and pillows were thin and flimsy. The wide windows that offer such beautiful views proved troublesome for sleeping during the northwest's long summer days, as darkness didn't settle until 10pm and we were all woken by the early summer sunrise pouring in at 5am with no blinds to help us fall back to sleep. As a result, all four of us slept poorly both nights of our stay. I would also recommend a larger tv with improved seating layout for visitors who may want to unwind and watch a movie together after a full day exploring the island. All in all, this is a beautiful property with incredible views in a fabulous location, but more care could be paid to physical comfort and details that consider visitor's experience in the space.

Magical Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved everything about our stay at Waters Edge! What a great house--the home is elegant, with simple and lovely well thought out features. The outstanding views and large windows augmented the interior, and the deck was fantastic, and flowed from inside to outside nicely. Such a great layout. I usually like staying on the west side of the island for the sunsets, but the sunrises here were beautiful and worth the wake. I loved looking out at Shaw and Orcas. Turtle Back Mountain on Orcas looms right there, and I could even see into the Marina at Deer Harbor (in the distance). Was great being so close to town, but really you're never too far from anywhere on the island. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

First time on San Juan island

We loved Water's Edge. The views were gorgeous. We saw bald eagles several times either flying by or siting in a nearby tree. The kitchen was very well stocked. We would definitely return.

Waters Edge - A special place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very unique property. Great location/views. Equiped like a high end home not like a rental. The home is well cared for and is large for a two bedroom. The closet in the master is reserved for the owner so the hanging storage is limited to the hall closet. The secondary bedroom is open to the kitchen and the two sided fireplace creates some privacy issues for the master. The TV arangement is less than ideal. That said I would rent it again without question. The house is special.

Lovely home with great views!

We truly enjoyed our stay. Views were magnificent. Very clean. Close to Friday Harbor. The property was as advertised. My only issue was we were not allowed use of the master bedroom closet so we had to use the front hall closet. Otherwise, 5 stars all the way!!

Water’s Edge

Beautiful home with an amazing view. The second bedroom was a loft that was partially open to the lower level which wasn’t ideal if someone in it wants to sleep in! Other than that, it was perfect.

Perfect for sitting

...and watching the world go by or as a jumping off point to see and enjoy San Juan Island and surrounds. This is an ideal VRBO, with views to die for, comfortable and smart accommodations. What suggestions I'd have are minor (no shampoo) and the praise I have is major. I envision returning.

Perfect property

The photos and the other reviews are telling the truth this is a very nice home in a beautiful setting and quick location into town. We had a hard time leaving!!! The home is tastefully done, super clean and great deck to hang out and watch the boats sail by. The property manager was very communicative and checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed and the place was up to standard. The kitchen is well stocked, comfortable bed and a beautiful view from every window. I would stay here over and over and it was one of my favorite VRBO's to date. The only problem was it was hard to leave to do any activities as we just wanted to hang at the house!
