Escape to the simplicity of Guemes Island in our open and airy Owl's Nest, one bedroom cabin with sleeping loft. Lots of natural light, open concept living with two decks to enjoy partial views of Saddlebag Island and Skagit Valley in the background. A place to unwind and enjoy the simple pleasures that living close to nature can bring.
The Guemes Ferry is just a 10 minute crossing and the Cabin is a beautiful 10 minute drive from the dock.
Itâs a very special place to us that weâre sharing for the first time, in hopes that youâll find it a relaxing and enjoyable place to hideaway for a bit.
This is not a rough and ready party palace, but rather a place to unwind and enjoy the simple pleasures living close to nature can offer. A good fit for those who like to "leave no trace". Enjoy yoga on the upper deck in the morning, a hike up Guemes Mountain or along the beach during the day, and curling up with a good book in front of the fire at night.
The Cabin has been recently renovated with an emphasis on earth friendly products. Locally milled, sustainably harvested fir flooring with no-VOC finish throughout. Cedar beams from the original clearing of the property. A 'nap nook' and work desk are in the loft, along with a large screen TV, WiiU, DVD player and an assortment of family friendly DVDs to enjoy the pleasures of simpler times together. There is WiFi for email, surfing and streaming but due to our location limited speeds are not enough for uploading or downloading.
Please Note:
Guests are expected to read & be willing to honor House Rules. No gatherings/parties or drones allowed, only booked guests can be there at any time (unless discussed/approved and additional fees paid in advance). Additional security deposit required for every booking per House Rules; booking implies agreement to pay deposit and honor rules. Unpaid deposit means no entry.
No pets here, we love them but this cabin is not set up for them and there are coyotes nearby.
Also The Guemes Island Store, just up from the ferry offers basic grocery supplies but it's advisable to bring your own food from the mainland for the bulk of your meals because supplies can fluctuate. They also make excellent food and baked goods for meals out.
