About this property

Waterfront Paradise with Game Room! Come and enjoy this waterfront house with your friends or family. Enjoy sunning yourself on the spacious deck or relax inside and make a meal in the gourmet open kitchen. (Bakker's Acres)

This upper-level, waterfront home sits on Mitchell Bay on the West side of San Juan Island. (The lower level is not for guest use.)

The home boasts two primary bedrooms that face the waterfront: one with a king bed and one with a queen bed. Both bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, each with a large walk-in shower (no tub), toilet, sink, and counterspace.
This property features a brand-new, queen-size sleeper sofa located in the TV area. The home comes with a fully equipped kitchen as well as an outdoor BBQ. Enjoy your morning coffee and meals on the large deck on the water’s edge. You will have your own private dock so make sure to bring your kayaks and paddle boards (dock is not suitable for boat tie-up due to extreme tides) The separate game room has a pool table, ping pong, darts, and lawn games.

The property is located just 4 miles away from the famous Roche Harbor Resort that offers a corner grocery store, a coffee stand, 3 delicious restaurants (seasonally open), shopping, swimming pool, and a marina with slips, fuel and the famous retirement of the colors. (The daily flag ceremony at sunset, not to be missed!)

Take your kayaks to enjoy beautiful sunsets from the mouth of the bay.

Hike the trail to the top of Mount Young or take your morning run on the back roads with beautiful open fields. Don’t forget to bring your bikes!
Gated property for privacy.
Approximately a 15-minute drive from the Friday Harbor ferry terminal.

THIS HOUSE IS LOCATED ON A QUIET LANE. WE ASK THAT ALL GUESTS BE RESPECTFUL OF NEIGHBORING RESIDENTS. THIS IS NOT A HOUSE FOR PARTIES!

Tides in Mitchell Bay are very extreme, and the dock is not suitable for boat tie-up. At low tide, there is no water at the dock.

Cell phone reception can be hit or miss on the property, and all over the island, depending on your carrier.

Fire pits are not usable May 1st - October 1st, or whenever there is a county burn ban. Typically the burn ban is released in October if weather allows.

delightful view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was well stocked with a wonderful view right on the water's edge. We're glad we had the privilege to stay even if we thought the cleaning fees were excessive ($300+$100). House was well stocked with kitchenware and was both clean and comfortable.

Black mold

There was black mold growing in the master bedroom at the double doors, we couldn’t sleep in the master, we had to sleep in the second bedroom, there was also a massive fly problem. I must have killed 40-50 flies! It was so gross. I had to resanitize the kitchen. This was my 25 year anniversary, and I was so disappointed.

Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023

Three families for a wedding

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Three families from Seattle, Philadelphia and Grenoble stayed 4 nights to attend a wedding at Saltwater Farm. Great weather all week. Great setting on Mitchell Bay. We used the dock access to do some paddle boarding. We bought supplies at Kings Market and the seafood market on the dock to cook dinner at Bakkers Acres for two of those nights. Excellent kitchen facilities. Ate lunch at the New Ernies at the airport and Cynthias (twice) and Market Chef and Hermosa Tacos. The only problem was that we paid for sleeping 9 but really there were only beds for 8.

Beautiful property with home that needs new mattresses

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Complaints first - for $2000/night, it would have been nice to have mattresses that are not at their end of life, a working coffee pot (not a Keurig) and the aging deck boards nailed down so guests don't trip on them. Positives - plenty of seating for guests, a nice open kitchen and a beautiful location.
