About this lodge
6 Guests Maximum. STRICTLY ENFORCED.
Enjoy our dream! The historic Buckhorn lodge was built in 1925. For the past 10 years we have renovated it as a rustic vacation home, perfect for families, romantic getaways, or friend get-togethers.
Fast 50 mbps internet speed. Multiple zoom sessions supported.
A maximum of 6 guests (plus infants under two years of age) is permitted by San Juan county (and strictly enforced).
Pet Fees: $100 first pet. $50 second pet.
In 2023 we completed a new wing, addition adding an additional 2000 sq ft space for a total of 3200 sq ft of living space. The new wing includes a den/game room, a master bedroom, a full bathroom with heated floors, clawfoot tub, steam/shower, and bidet, a bunk room with 2 twin beds and an additional day bed which can act as twin or be expanded into a king bed.
The original front portion of the lodge includes a large country kitchen with wood stove, a spacious living/room dining room, with fireplace, loft area, and ocean front bedroom and 2nd bathroom
Other amenities include a hot tub (with ocean view), bikes (Yes! you can ride to town in about 15 minutes - get out of your car!), kayaks, crab traps, private beach, ping pong table, BBQ, fire pit. Yes, it's rustic, but wonderfully comfortable and the perfect family retreat.
Don't spend your vacation driving to the beach. Our private beach is about 10 feet from our 40 foot deck (see photos) which runs the length of the front of the house. You can relax while keeping on eye on the kids. The views are astounding - snow-covered Mt. Baker is visible to the North East, Vancouver is out past Sucia Island to the North West.
As noted, you can ride one of our bicycles or walk to to the town of East Sound to shop, eat at one of the wonderful restaurants, attend the weekly farmers market or just stroll. Because we are so close to the beach, it feels as if you were on your own private island. We have a few neighbors all of whom are wonderful kind people.
We do not have TV or a land line, but offer wireless internet so you can access your Netflix, Amazon, or Hulu service, and a VCR and DVD player with approximately 150 movies to choose from.
Buckhorn Lodge is a one-of-a-kind spot - close to town, right on the water, incredible views on beautiful Orcas Island.
Our home offers great value: in addition to its superb beachfront location, the cost of renting a bike on orcas for a single day is $115. Kayaks rent for $25.00 an hour. Those two amenities alone add over a $1,000 in value with just a few days of use!
We look forward to providing you with a great island vacation.

Beautiful property right on the water with stunning views. Great back deck and hot tub for relaxing outside. Plenty of space with the multiple bedrooms and living areas. Large well stocked kitchen that we enjoyed cooking in each day. Loved the amenities, like kayaks, fire pit, and yoga mats. Everything on and in the property was amazing. The driveway is narrow and there are neighbors very closeby. Owner communicated well and was quick to fix an issue that arose.

This is one of those places where the house was so nice that we didn’t feel the need to do other stuff…! Most of the time we just enjoyed relaxing while looking out at the water. We even spotted a lip,e of orcas, which we understand is not that common!

Consider yourself lucky to stay at this place! Great location: not too far from town/ferry; located on an accessible beach to explore. We stayed for 4 nights, and it was perfect for our short trip. The host was very accommodating & helpful for us first-time visitors to Orcas Island. We are so appreciative of the Instruction Manual provided: ***Do read before! its very informative & will enhance your visit!**
House was clean & ready for us. Lots of utensils/pots/pans for cooking/preparing food in the kitchen. Thank you for providing dish soap & paper towels so we could clean up after ourselves! All equipment, firewood, towels, outdoor equipment, whatever that was mentioned in the manual or pictured in the listing was there. Spectacular!
Hot tub was clean & ready for use, easy to open close (first time home hot tub user). Kayaks easy to unlock/lock up. (first time kayaker).
All communications with host was easy, prompt, clear, and professional.
Thanks Larry, Michelle, Jordan & cleaning crew for hosting us! We hope to visit again one day.
6 / 10Average·Sep 2022
The owners are very nice. I know the amenities weigh into the high price point of this vrbo. But with such a high price point, the amenities should be VERY good. The row boat is missing the pins that hold the oars in place (and they were missing last year we were came too). This makes rowing the boat almost impossible. The hammock was broken before we arrived. The steps leading down to the beach are very overgrown. Both times we visited, it just left us very disappointed considering how much we paid for this trip. .
