Lovely home, centrally located and convenient to all.
This property met all our expectations. It offered a wonderful set up for a family with an amazing master BR and bath. Kitchen was very well stocked with modern appliances, condiments and utensils. TV was great for family viewing. Only difficulty was the driveway and path down to the main road which was steep and not easy to navigate. Could have liked one more TV in BR so that those with different selections could also enjoy. But all in all, a great vacation spot.

Beautiful stay on Orcas Island
Our family spent several wonderful days at Sherri's beautiful property on Orcas Island. We enjoyed the views of the sea, ate the blackberries growing outside, walked to town, and cooked inside the well-stocked kitchen. Cascade Lake and Moran Park were just a short drive away, and it's easy to catch a morning ferry back to the mainland because the house is also close to the ferry terminal in the other direction. Thank you, Sherri, for hosting us so wonderfully -- we hope to return next summer!

Great getaway on Orcas

Comfy, clean and close to East Sound
I couldn’t have imagined a better stay than Cool Breeze. As soon as we opened the front door we were in utter amazement at how spacious and sparkling clean everything was. Right away we felt comfortable putting our 9 month old boys on the floor. I usually don’t like to rely on using a rental property grill because everyone I’ve ever encountered needed cleaning, but the grill on this property was sooo clean! The beds were super comfortable with high quality linens. Checkout was a breeze and we really appreciated the little bit of extra time to let my twin grandsons finish their naps and get ready to hit the road. Next time I visit Orcas I hope Cool Breeze is available! Thank you to Sherri for all your gracious communication!

Great Time in Eastsound
This was our first VRBO and the property is lovely. It is located close to the town so it was very convenient? Our daughter was traveling with my husband and I and having her own bedroom and bathroom downstairs gave her privacy. We loved sitting on the deck in the morning looking out on the water. We would highly recommend this property.

The property is set among towering trees with views of the water. We enjoyed breakfast on the deck listening to the birds. We spotted deer several mornings as well. Even though it feels secluded, it is only a short walk into town. However, there is a steep road leading to the house which makes the walk back a bit challenging, but doable. Otherwise it's a quick two minute drive to town. Excellent location. The property was spotless and very comfortable. The house was well stocked with the essentials. We really enjoyed our stay!

We really enjoyed our week on Orcas Island. Sherri was the perfect host, available but unobtrusive and quick to respond to my questions. If you’re looking for relaxing downtime and outdoor recreation you’ll find it here. The town of Eastsound is charming; we discovered small shops and nice dining options. Check out The Brown Bear Bakery, The Clever Cow and Orcas Pottery There is also a nice market for groceries. We will return!

Perfect spring get-away
We had a wonderful extended weekend stay! The property was perfect for families with young children. They had everything we could have possibly needed and more (pack n play, high chair, kid dishes, and even a few fun children's books!). The location was perfect for exploring all ends of the island. Definitely would stay again if we ever returned to the island.

Relaxing getaway with a treehouse feel!
We had a wonderful time at this home during spring break. The home is very comfortable. The weather didn't cooperate most of the time that we were there but it was so nice to be able to see the sound from most of the rooms in the house. The bedding was nice and the mattress was so comfortable that we bought that same mattress for our house! The kitchen is well appointed and had everything we needed. I think that the only improvement would be to provide more living room seating. Sherry was a fantastic host that was on top of everything. We have already recommended this property to other friends of ours.
