This historic Craftsman Bungalow was built as a vacation hotel by a stone mason in 1907. In a later incarnation, colorful resident and steamship captain, "Cap" Ferris brought a baby orphaned kangaroo to live with him and his family. The locals dubbed the sprawling lodge the "Kangaroo House" Since then it has become a B&B and is the longest continually operating bed & breakfast in the San Juan Islands. We have 5 Rooms/Suites, all with Private Bathrooms, King or Queen beds and some with additional beds and DVD players/movies, Free WiFi, Garden Hot Tub, and an exceptional, filling breakfast made from scratch including wholesome, local fruits, meats, vegetables and herbs from Orcas Island's own farms and gardens.

Charles and Jill run their wonderful B&B with lots of warmth and hospitality. I have been coming back to this establishment, a mile from EastSound, for many years. The healthy gourmet breakfasts are scrumptious! They are always able to accommodate dietary restrictions. We are vegan, and it was no problem for them. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and they grow many of their own vegetables and fruits. The Stellar's Jay suite, with its king size bed and separate sitting room with a Murphy bed, was comfortable and cozy. I recommend Kangaroo House to all my friends!

We enjoyed our time at Kangaroo House B & B. Charles and Jill are very friendly and welcoming hosts. We stayed in the Goldfinch room, spacious with a nice bathroom. They prepared a lovely breakfast in the morning with homemade goodies (We especially liked her muffins). The location is very convenient to Eastsound (charming little town with restaurants and shops) and also not too far from Mt. Moran State Park great for hiking (Mountain Lake) and the view from the top of Mt. Constitution.

We unequivocally recommend Kangaroo B&B. The owners, Jill and Charles, were so warm and welcoming. The entire property was well-maintained. Our suite and the common areas were spotless. The Stellar Jay suite had beautiful décor and the bed was very comfortable. If that weren't enough, the breakfasts each morning were absolutely delicious and creative. There is plenty of room at the B&B to socially-distance and we opted to enjoy our breakfast outside on the large front porch. Also, the location is very convenient. We could easily walk or bike to town. We will definitely be back!

We loved everything about our visit to the Kangaroo House. It’s a charming, impeccably maintained Craftsman with lovely peaceful surrounding gardens. We stayed in the Stellar Jay suite, which was large and nicely appointed. It was blissfully quiet. It’s an easy one- mike walk to town and a five minute walk to the Outer Island whale watching boat launch. But the best thing about this place is the owners: their gracious hospitality and spectacular cooking. Each morning began with an exquisite 3-course breakfast, including fresh fruit, egg and meat dishes and delicious fresh-baked goods. Jill and Charles are so warm, friendly and accommodating. They were also extremely conscientious about social distancing and cleaning, which we truly appreciated. Can’t wait to come back some day!…

We spent three nights with Charles and Jill in their charming Inn and have decided we will never stay anywhere else. They are both very warm and engaging but they are also fabulous cooks. Breakfast was a 10 and something we could look forward to each morning, along with delicious coffee. We thoroughly enjoyed our well appointed, antique filled room and slept well each night. They were very informative about things to do and see on the island and we found it very helpful. We will miss our morning visits with them. We feel very grateful to have been able to stay with them just before the "isolating in place" took effect in WA state.
