We had a great time at this cottage. I had a hard time leaving the sunroom to go about our other Sequim activities. The lagoon is beautiful and so full of birds! The cottage was super clean and had everything we needed. Comfortable beds, a great kitchen and so quiet. We really want to come back again and again.

We had a truly lovely stay. I'm afraid to say much positive things as bookings can be hard to get and we want the place to ourselves, eh.There were so many bonuses like hummingbirds constantly feeding in front of the main windows. An eagle couple bathed then perched on a bare tree nearby. And the blackberries! The home was well appointed, everything was spot on. I especially liked the hot water on tap, instant chocolate or chai. It's a really sweet cottage!

Beautiful manicured setting overlooking a magnificent lagoon and beyond the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Protection Island National Wildlife Refuge, and the San Juan Islands and Mt Baker are visible.Everything about this house makes you want to spend time there. It’s a multiple year vacation choice for us and we’ve booked 2026 already. There is no nicer place to stay on VRBO if you like quiet, an incomparable setting and a well designed, very comfortable house. The Best.

Perfect Cottage

The waterfront cottage is a delightful experience. This was our 7th stay at the cottage and it has always been perfect in every respect. Super clean, super comfortable, amazing setting and an owner, Debbie, who has anticipated all that her guests might need for a pleasant stay.

A Spring Chortle of Frogs

We treasure this especially well kept, clean and accessible cottage whose sweeping lawns hug a lagoon, teeming with wildlife. A spring chortle of frogs greeted us upon our arrival. There is always a changing panorama of herons, eagles and Roosevelt elk. The Cottage is where we find peace, beauty and serenity. Our reservations for another stay are already in place! Thank you, Deborah!

Quiet, peaceful, dog friendly

Perfect place for a quiet retreat. The house is perches on a sloped vast yard that gave our dog lots of freedom to stretch his legs. An attached solarium is a great place to soak in the view when it is chilly out. Beautiful sunrise and sunset. Easy checkin with host. Great access to town and coastline. Wish we had the foresight to plan for a longer stay

Slice of Paradise

The Cottage exceeded our expectations in every way! Water, water, water stretches for as far as the eye can see. Beautiful secluded, well-kept grounds with a marsh, relatively level green lawn to the water’s edge (rare in Sequim), and trees that attract eagles and other wildlife. The Cottage had everything we could want – squeaky clean, comfortable, very nice accessories, and accessible. Even an electrical outlet to charge our EV car! Had a blast at Happy Valley Alpaca Ranch. Don’t miss the Olympic Game Farm – a once in a lifetime experience. Love Alder Wood Bistro and Gabby’s bread pudding for breakfast. The host is superb with excellent communications who really cares.
