About this property

Sol Mate is a new, modern cottage in the heart of the charming village of Eastsound. It's a hop, skip, and a jump from breakfast, ice cream, or wine (not necessarily in that order.)

With 3 bedrooms there's no need to couch surf. Everyone can have a little space. Curl up on the couch. Go antiquing. Head out for a hike or to other Islands for the day.

Come find your sunny place to recharge in the Islands. Come find your 'sol' mate.

The space

Sol Mate is a newly built home with a spacious and fully-appointed kitchen, including stainless steel appliances and dining area. The downstairs also includes a beautiful, bright, and contemporary living room with all the amenities.: Stylish, comfortable furniture, flat screen internet-connected tv and space to spread out. The Master bedroom features a very comfortable, new king-sized bed and luxury bedding. The master bath features a spa dual-showerhead shower and bath. The second bedroom features a very comfortable queen-sized bed, with a natural latex-pillow topper, for an amazing night's sleep. The third bedroom has a beautiful white, sturdy wooden bunk bed (Queen on the bottom, long Twin on top), with natural latex-pillow topper and a desk.

You're renting the whole house. Whole kit and kaboodle. The whole enchilada. (please note that kaboodles and enchiladas are metaphorical.)

Great place for a family -- small-ish for 4 adults

This place felt super nice as it's a new/recent construction. Kitchen was loaded with everything you need. Outdoor seating adds nice touch for breakfasts/cocktail hour. Location is perfect. Owner/mgr communicates extremely well and prompt. The flaw for us was bedrooms are quite limited: master has no closet (to unpack anything) and 2nd bedroom is tiny.

Better than advertised

Our visit was cut-short due to illness. But I have no doubt we’ll be back as soon as possible. The description in the listing is spot-on. Truly one of the nicest homes we’ve rented. The location was perfect. Quiet and private, yet just a short walk to everything in town. Laura was great host and incredibly understanding when our plans suddenly changed.

Modern, light, well located and well equipped

Laura and Jamey are attentive and thoughtful hosts. There were so many extras that they provided that I’ve never been offered at any other vacation rental. The property is fairly new, very nicely equipped with everything you can think of to cook and prep with as well as a pantry with lots of staples, so we didn’t have to buy every little thing. Also, great beds, bedding, and nice thick towels. The location right in Eastsound is very convenient for cafés, shopping, community activities and more but not in the airport flight path so fairly quiet for town. We will definitely be back!

You really can have it all

We had a really wonderful time at Sol Mate. It’s clean, bright, nicely-furnished, and extremely well-stocked with everything you could possibly need. It’s right in the heart of Eastsound, yet surprisingly VERY quiet. It’s the best of both worlds: walking distance to everything, yet a calm refuge to return to at the end of a day exploring the island. The owners are a joy to communicate with. Quite a find!

Relaxing/fun getaway

We very much enjoyed our stay in Eastsound. The house had everything we needed, the kitchen was well stocked with nice dishes and pots and pans. We split our time between eating out and cooking. There are wonderful places to eat within steps of the house. Fun shops to explore close by. We had our car so we explored the whole island. I would definitely recommend this place. We had 5 adults and a infant. Plenty of seating. The owners were very helpful too with tips for the ferry and things to do.

About the host

Hosted by Laura Tisdale

We fell in love with Orcas about 20 years after we fell in love with each other. Laura is from the PNW, Jamey is from North Carolina (but moved here in the early 1990's). After years of coming to Orcas, we decided to stay a little longer.

Why they chose this property

Sleek. Modern. Uncluttered. Light. So much light. After years of kayaking around Orcas, Sucia, and the rest of the San Juans, we wanted to live here (if for only a few weeks at a time). Located in the heart of Eastsound, you can walk to pretty much everything from here. Every wall has windows, letting in light. So when it does eventually rain (it rains less in the Islands than in Seattle), you can still rock the couch, read a book, and enjoy sun surrounding you.

What makes this property unique

It's new. The furnishings are new. More like a modern European hotel, it's clean, simple and uncluttered design tends to elicit sighs. Maybe snoring. Definitely relaxation. You're 211 paces from the grocery story. A few less to the Coop. Two great options for Ice Cream within a simple stroll. Within a block is a wine store, a bakery, and the best Mexican food on the Island. Plan accordingly.
