About this house rental
Our location is private and peaceful, yet close to all the amenities of the main village of Eastsound. 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 Cabin in the Orchard, and are always happy to share our knowledge of this wonderful community! The property lies at the base of Buck Mtn. 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 of the homestead is just behind the garden. The cottage was finished in 2016 by Orcas locals, using local wood. The heat is radiant in-floor- we're upgrading to a heat pump soon for better efficiency. We took care to provide full-size appliances: refrigerator, oven w/ stovetop, full-size washer/dryer, dishwasher. For families with babies: high chair, changing table, Graco Pack n Play. Bathroom amenities include: towels, TP, hair dryer, shampoo and conditioner. The beds (queen downstairs and king upstairs) are very comfy. There is a picnic table, a porch with comfy chairs to hang out and observe deer grazing, and a BBQ. There are games, giant frisbees, bocce ball, cornhole, pickle ball for 4 and a pop up badminton net etc. as well. Wireless internet is also available, and a Roku TV for streaming. We have an active VR permit with San Juan County.
Amenities at A peaceful retreat in a 5-acre orchard, just minutes from all the amenities!

This property was lovely and quiet. We especially appreciated the natural setting (great for birding) and the fully functional kitchen, which allowed us to cook full meals when it was hard to get dinner in town.A surprising hit was the puzzle toy Horse Academy, which entertained our kid for hours. There were many other games and toys as well. The lack of AC wasn't a problem, but we had to make sure to remember to open the windows in the evening to cool off the loft before bed. The beds were very large and comfortable.The hosts were friendly and helpful. I especially appreciated tips about navigating the ferry system ahead of our trip. Thank you to Cathy and Jim for a great stay.

The guest house was lovely and conveniently situated close to Eastsound. The hosts were truly excellent, reminding us about ferry bookings and informing us about things to do while on Orcas. We loved staying here, and we can’t wait to come back!

The cabin is lovely! We really enjoyed relaxing on the porch and observing the deer. The hosts were also very nice and communicated well with us; they reached out beforehand to offer suggestions & met up with us so we could find the cabin and introduce us to their property.

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.
