This was our second time staying at Jane’s home.
We absolutely love it here. It is cozy and beautiful, and the peacefulness of being on the water just fills my heart each time.
The kitchen is well stocked, the beds are so comfortable and the view is like nothing else. My nephews absolutely love it here— so much so that they refer to it as “our house” now when they visit.
We loved tide pooling, and even launched our SUP from here in the summer. The resident seal visits most days and we even saw porpoises!
I cannot say enough about how special this home is. It is clearly well-loved and well taken care of. Such a beautiful slice of PNW history. Visit if you can!

Great place for family to get away & enjoy some R&R on Day Island. The owner is super helpful & responsive. Nice setup for a larger family with the basement. Enjoy the marine life & sunsets! Boathouse 19 on Marina is right down the road for fun meal/drinks on water.

We had a wonderful family time at your place! Views were gorgeous, accommodations were just right for our family and kitchen was well stocked as we shared cooking duties between our kids. So much easier to eat at “home”! Thank you!

Wow, what a great place to experience the Puget Sound, in an older house perched right on the edge of the water. The house may be older, but it's got everything you'd need and the age makes you feel like you've stepped back in time to a simpler life. Or maybe that's just the feeling of relaxation you get sitting down by the seawall, watching the seals and Caspian Terns and the tidal currents flowing by. This is a really great place to stay and would easily fit 7 people (though we sure enjoyed it just with 2).

My husband and I stayed with you a year ago. I loved the memory so much, I painted the bulkhead beaches in your backyard, and the painting was juried into a show at Gallery North in Edmonds! It’ll be there from June 1-30, if you want to see how I depicted your beautiful place.

We had a fabulous stay! Jane could not have been more accommodating. With a family of 6 we had plenty of towels, bedrooms and a well equipped kitchen. Waking up to the view of the Puget Sound was fabulous. First day we saw a whale from the shore while having drinks in the backyard.
