It was such a pleasure to stay here. The property was beautiful, the owners were so nice, and our cabin was the perfect relaxing get-away we needed. What first attracted me was the dog-friendly policy. I also loved the idea of having a personal, secluded hot tub attached to our cabin. It was a 20 minute drive into town, which... More

We spent last weekend at the Carriage Cottage at Cayou Cove, Cozy cottage with sunshine on the porch in the morning. You enter your area through a private gate(very charming )View of the water, Lush landscaping, Lilacs smelled wonderful..Gravel paths, bubbling brooks, Loved the fenced vegetable garden. Herbs, lettuces, radishes, asparagus were ready to pick..Lots more variety coming for later... More

This is one of our favorite places on Orcas Island. We got engaged here, spent our honeymoon here, and just recently celebrated our second anniversary here. Valerie and Charles Binford are wonderful hosts and great cooks! The grounds are immacute and beautiful, and there is a garden where you can pick herbs to use for cooking dinner! The grounds keeper/gardener... More

As a couple needing to get away for some special time alone Cayou Cove exceeded beyond our expectations. We stayed at the carriage cottage which was warm and charming, a perfect romantic bungalow with all the amenities and special added touches for our pleasure and comfort. I highly recommend their breakfasts which they will bring to you! Absolutely delightful tasting,... More

My fiance' and I rented the Cove Cottage for two nights over New Year's Eve. Let me start by saying, when I was researching places to rent on Orcas, I inquired to this property. I was told they required 3 nights stay over a holiday. However, as there was an oversight on their website that I pointed out which stated... More

This is a beautiful cottage on Deer Harbor with water or garden views from every window. The location is convenient to Harbor activities but you will need a car for other activities on the island. The cottage is so lovely that you will not want to leave. We rented a kayak from a shop in Eastsound for 3 days and... More

My husband and I went here for four days for a little parent getaway. It was wonderful. The view from the carriage cottage was amazing. We could watch the ships come in and out of the port from our porch and from the hot tub. The hot tub was a great spot. The owners were unfailingly polite and unobtrusive with... More

We stayed in the small Gardeners Cottage as the others were booked up, but any of the cottages would be a great choice. This cottage is tucked into a small woodland area, beside a small, bubbling creek water feature. It has a small porch with table and rocking chair, and a 2 person hot tub that looks out between the... More

This is one tranquil spot on Orcas Island. We stayed in the Cottage which was both charming and comfortable. The breakfasts are wonderful and the appetizer service in the late afternoon was a nice touch. The owners were polite and were respectful of our privacy. Although most B&Bs in the San Juans do not welcome children, our two boys loved... More
