We loved this place!! It was great for our multigenerational reunion. The house is wonderful, the farm is beautiful, and the animals are very entertaining to watch! Joe was very responsive and helpful. We did arrange for a tour of the animal sanctuary - that was great! We did ride bikes from the property once into Friday Harbor. That works for experienced riders and tires that can handle gravel.

The house was an exciting and relaxing place to be. The Graduate thinks that he would like to open a practice on this island and the 8 year olds did not want to leave.Julie was wonderful with the kids allowing them to assist withh feeding the animals.Shawn was the perfect host for the wine tasting - it allowed all of us to experience an old but new wine with how it is processed - Functional Med Graduate greatly enjoyed this.

This was one of the best places we have ever stayed! It's not just that this is a beautiful farmhouse with total privacy, fantastic kitchen, comfy beds, multiple bathrooms, and endless kitchen supplies! It's also that this is a place of peacefulness that is beyond any of our expectations. Being able to be on such a huge property, surrounded by open space, apple trees, friendly cows, eagles, the animal sanctuary, and easy long walks was divine. Joe was a fantastic host who was even able to accommodate the possibility of an extra night if needed. There is a cider press operation on the property and under a beautiful apple tree we were given a delightful cider tasting plus tour. Honestly, I wish that we could have stayed for much, much longer! This farm and the surroundings was the most peaceful place we have ever stayed. You won't regret this experience for a second!
