This was an absolutely amazing experience and the views from our place made it so we didn't want to leave. The beds were comfy and the peaceful surroundings made our stay amazing.
Great house with lots of space and endless views! We had a wonderful and comfortable stay. Very much appreciated being so close to downtown for quick errands. Would most definitely return!
We really enjoyed our stay on Buck Mountain. The views were incredible, even though the weather prevented us from spending much time on the deck. The rooms were large and comfortable and there were lots of toys and games for the kids.

Glorious Mountain Getaway
All of Orcas Island seems wonderful and the village of East Sound is delightful. We were especially pleased, however, to be "up the mountain" at this wonderfully private, spacious home. Local contact with property manager added greatly to the experience.

Beautiful view and home !!
Amazing 260 degree view from main living room! A terrific shower in the master and huge lower level.
There is plenty of room in this home for a family of 8 but With just 4 of us, it was perfect! The views were absolutely amazing! The home can use some updating but easily overlooked when you can sit on the deck and watch beautiful sunsets .

Fantastic property
Our family and friends had a wonderful stay. The views are better in person and the sunsets are endless. Easy drive into town. There is plenty to do for people of all ages. This was our second stay at the property, ages 1-44years old. Kitchen is well equipped, beds are comfortable, and the home is clean. We didn't want to leave this slice of paradise!

Great for a crowd. We had a few bumps with cleanliness but with the three king beds and separate three bathrooms it was nice for 3 couples. Big entertainment deck with 180 degree views of Orcas and beyond.

Incredible views!
This was my second time staying at this home, and the views are incredible! Absolutely magical! The bedrooms and primary bathroom are nice and very functional, but the house could use a little care and updating. The kitchen and grill work well for dinners at home.

Amazing View
Wow! What an amazing view of Orcas and the islands. We made sure to be on the deck for the sunset each night. Plenty of room and comfy beds for 9 adults. We cooked meals and there was everything we needed to cook with.
