About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Waterfront, 2 kitchens, 2 living areas, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms. Quiet.

Sparkling clean waterfront home tucked in amongst cedar and fir trees on a saltwater bay. Quiet neighborhood with a 180-degree water and island view. Five minutes from downtown La Conner. Thirty minutes from Anacortes/San Juan ferry.

There is an outdoor burn ban from July 1 until who knows when. But you can still BBQ.

This 3-level home is perfect for up to six guests - all levels with their own queen bed and bathroom. There are two open living areas with two kitchens, plus a third bedroom/bath in the loft.

Both the main level and the downstairs levels have access to the outdoors. Due to the high bluff, we do not accommodate children under 12. If you use the steep stairs to the beach we are not responsible for any injuries. Sometimes it may be off limits.

There is parking for only two cars and limited street parking. Please only two cars.

We do not allow pets.

There are outdoor video cameras installed.

You will receive directions and key information from VRBO's "Welcome Guide" three days before check in.

EXTRA GUEST CHARGE: A 3-bedroom 2.5-bath waterfront home is generally over $440 or more per night for six people. But we often serve only two people. Therefore rates are less for two people and if more people are added we charge $30 more per person, per night including children over 12 through a platform VRBO has set up for this scenario.

Our neighbors are close, but with fences. We have never had any complaints about noisy neighbors. One guest complained about no blinds on the windows and the sunlight bothered them. (Not in bedrooms.) There is a separate living/kitchen area on the lower level that does have blinds. It's also much cooler in summer.

La Conner offers fine dining, pubs, cafe's, coffee shops, music, art galleries, tulips in April, the farm festival in the fall, and a boardwalk along the Swinomish Channel.

NOISE: Big Cedar is near the Whidby Island Naval Air Station. Occasionally they fly over La Conner. They do not fly on weekends. We want you to be informed as we never know when, or if, they will be flying. You cannot hear take-offs or landings - more of a dull roar in the distance.

Please note that our entire property is non-smoking. Neither is this property suitable for children under 12.

Have fun, be safe, and understand that any use of the property is at your own discretion and at your own risk.

Cancellation Policy: 100% refund 14 days before check-in
50% refund 7-14 days before check-in
Otherwise, no refund

Our stay was perfection. It was quiet, peaceful and the description on VRBO was spot on. Right on the water with plenty of space and tranquility. It was a warmer than usual start to our stay so we truly appreciated the fan that was available.

It was a really nice home with a spectacular view with the most beautiful sunsets. Beds were really comfortable. There was 5 of us (2 couples plus our adult daughter) so we each had our own floor. Loved the town of La Conner and enjoyed some really nice restaurants. Drove into Anacortes and took the Ferry over to Friday Harbor on the San Juan Island. Had tried to reserve a ferry spot to take our car but that Ferry System is horrible so we just walked on. Definitely recommend this home!

This is a lovely home in a quiet residential neighborhood just minutes from town. We really enjoyed our time here and wished we had stayed longer! A few concerns: read the fine print carefully as the listed price is for two people only, even though this is a big place! We were charged extra for a third person. Also, there are NO beach accessories (kayaks, SUPs, etc) even though it is waterfront, and the tide goes way, way out here, so being in the water here is much harder than it looks. The stairs to the water are steep and the beach was packed with driftwood. If water access is key, do not stay here! Otherwise, a truly lively home.

Great stay!!

What a great place! Everything about this location was perfect. One suggestion…. Change the bed tassels on the loft bed. We thought the tassel was a little creature. I know that sounds a little weird! But, we can’t be the first or the last who thought that tassel on the bed spread wasn’t a tassel.Again… incredible house. Perfect stay.

Nice rental for all areas of the Skagit delta.

This is one of the nicest rentals I have used. Quiet. 3 bedrooms, each with its own bath, etc. is great for mixed groups, especially birders like us who are here to check out the raptors in the area. Great view of the water. We'll be back.

Beautiful and quiet setting within a short drive from the Hope Island Beach Club wedding venue was perfect for us. The house worked great for 3 adults with plenty of space for all of us. The quaint town of LaConner is a gem with wonderful restaurants and lovely sunset walks along the water.
