Very quiet, peaceful and comfortable. Olga is charming--the store has really good soft serve ice cream. We saw an otter from the dock, and enjoyed eating at Buck Bay oyster farm across the bay (highly recommend). Really nice for a family getaway. The house itself was well stocked and the beds were very comfortable.

Cute and unique cottage

Excellent views of the sound, right up the road from the Olga docks so very convenient for us. House even had all the crab cooking needs!! Yum! Updated bathrooms made a big difference, but the towels are very small and we wished we had more. Overall the house was lovely for my family and we enjoyed our stay! Thanks Erin for hosting :-)

Our family traveled to Orcas Island as part of a family tradition to spend time together in nature during Thanksgiving. The host welcomed us warmly and checked in to ensure we had everything we needed and were settling in comfortably. We were greeted with a sweet handwritten note and a warm and comfortable home with special high end details in each room. There were lovely books and plenty of space to lounge and relax after taking a hike in nearby Moran State park which was utterly amazing. We had everything we needed to cook a fantastic Thanksgiving meal. The views were breathtaking and a short walk to the waterfront was lovely. This is truly a beautiful region with so much to do nearby in both nature and commerce - short drive to the East sound shops boasting delicious local fare and artisanal hand made goods. If you are considering a visit to Orcas Island this house and kind host are 10/10 recommended!

Restorative Woman’s Retreat

7 women in both The Stuga and Little Stuga. Room for everyone. Beds for everyone. Kitchen equipped beautifully. Easy 2 minute walk to water. Owners were super responsive when we had a minor concern. Perfect base for exploring all and sundry on Orcas.

Additional Items to Know About The Stuga Before Reserving It

The interior of the house was as described and the beds were comfortable. We were not notified until the welcome email with our access code to the house on 9/20 (our check in was 9/23) that "cell service can be a bit spotty and that Verizon and Sprint will have limited cell service". We could not make a call from the house with our cell phones (not even through the WiFi). As long as the WiFi was working, you could text. The lack of cell service should be noted on the main description of the rental. We had a medical emergency and it was very difficult communicating with family members. We were also notified on 9/20 that the hosts had just been notified by the power company that the power would be off for two nights of our stay. While we were on the island, I found out that the power outage was planned for the entire island and they had been notifying everyone starting in mid-August. If I had been informed of the planned power outage, we wouldn't have stayed on Orcas Island for our vacation. I am still working with VRBO and the hosts for at least half of my payment to be refunded as we should have been informed of the power outage and/or the house shouldn't have been available to rent during the power outage. Again, during the power outage there was no way to communicate as the WiFi was down as well then. The house does not have Cable/Satellite TV, but you can login to Hulu or other streaming services if you have an account.

Guest was not familiar with the listing nor how to connect to WiFi to make calls, text or email host with questions. Guest was also not familiar with limited resources of the island (spotty service throughout, no hospital on island). This guest had plenty of opportunity to reach out with questions or request assistance, but failed to do so. It's unfortunate that their lack of communication left them in a difficult situation, and because we didn't refund their trip 100%, they left a 1 star review.
