Beautiful House - Great View - Wierd Furniture - Housekeeping needs some watching!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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 beautiful - the beds were very nice! Supplies in the kitchen were perfect! The deck was beautiful and perfect. The washer and dryer were very handy. The deck was beautiful and perfect. Unfortunately, the living room furniture not comfortable. When we arrived the cabinet in the master bedroom that holds all the supplies was wide open. We closed it and put the open lock on it to hold it shut. (could have been bad if we were dishonest) The living room furniture not comfortable. The kitchen table was covered in crumbs. There were dirty dishes on the counter. (This only shows bad for housekeeping, not the house itself) Everyone at your company was amazing to deal with. If I was in the area again, I would definately stay here or rent with your group again!

Wonderful Orcas Island Vacation

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: We stayed at Orcas Hill House for 4 days. It is in a great location close to the ferry and about 25 minutes from Eastsound. The views were spectacular. The house itself was the cleanest Airbnb I've been in and was extremely comfortable. There is some Ferry noise, and one morning it was foggy, so the Ferry blew it's horn every time it left the landing. This was not a bother to us, but something to be aware of if you have kids that are light sleepers. We spent every night out on the deck looking out over the water. Orcas Island was great. We went whale watching and saw a Pacific Northwest Humpback whale. We also went kayaking and saw seals, porpoise, eagles nest, lots of sea stars and other ocean things. I would highly recommended Orcas Island and this Airbnb to my friends.

Orcas Island Getaway

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: The Orcas Hill House property was a perfect sanctuary to end our long Pacific Northwest vacation. After a few weeks of dodging the BC fires we ended our time off with clear skies in the San Juan's and spent a few days re-exploring Orcas Island. The home had all of the amenities we needed to enjoy a few nights of BBQs and cocktails. We hope to return soon.

Really enjoyed the Orcas Hill House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: My husband, brother and sister-in-law recently stayed at the Orcas Hill House. The setting and location are wonderful, close to the ferry and high on a hill with a terrific view. The place is a little on the campy/cabiny side and could use some updates for sure (or a discount in price), but we enjoyed the house, it was comfy, relaxing and quiet. A second shower should be a major priority as it was awkward with 4 adults using one shower indeed! Overall, though, we had a great time and got a lot of use out of the huge balcony!
