Seacliff Cottage is a beautifully decorated and comfortably furnished arts and crafts style home on Orcas Island in the scenic San Juan Islands of Washington State.

Situated on a waterfront cliff, this island getaway offers panoramic views of Rosario Straits, including spectacular sunrises, and a variety of pristine islands and mountains. Every room in Seacliff Cottage envelopes you in both quiet comfort and scenic delights.

The space
With a National Wildlife Refuge less than a mile offshore, sea life is abundant. Watch seals, sea lions, otters, shorebirds, bald eagles and even whales from the attached, private deck and outdoor spa.

Mount Constitution is just a short 15-minute drive, and offers many different hiking trails to a variety of lakes, waterfalls and scenic overlooks, or the opportunity to take a relaxed drive to the mountaintop to take in the breathtaking scenery.

Just a bit farther down the road is the quaint town of Eastsound, populated with island arts and crafts stores, unique dining opportunities, movies and more. Visits to neighboring San Juan islands are accommodated by the island ferry boats, which can be accessed via a picturesque 40-minute drive around this horseshoe-shaped island.

Two bedrooms, one with a queen size bed and one with a full size bed, plus an extra-long window seat in the living room mean that Seacliff Cottage can comfortably accommodate up to five people. Each bedroom (including the window seat) is wrapped in windows, allowing guests to ‘breathe in’ the awe-inspiring surroundings from dawn to dusk.

We recently installed a very simple to use, great sounding Sonos music system serving every room of the house including the deck! Simply download the Sonos S1 app to your phone and choose “connect to an existing system”.

We have also added two GermGuardian UV sterilization air filters, one in the Master Bedroom and one in the Kitchen/Dining Room.

If you are a nature enthusiast, or simply want to escape from your busy schedule and relax in the zen-like setting of this extraordinary hideaway, make Seacliff Cottage your next vacation destination.

Guest access
Guests have access to the entire of the house with the exception of the locked storage/mechanical room in the lower level closet.

Other things to note
Seacliff is an ideal place for an intimate, tranquil escape for a couple or perhaps 3-4 close friends. It is not suitable for larger groups, even for a brief visit; the cottage is simply too small. As the cottage is perched on a very steep cliff, children are NOT allowed and we strongly advise our guests exercise extreme caution. The private/community beach is perfect for putting in your kayak or just relaxing by the water. We do not participate in the dock maintenance and, accordingly, do not have access to the dock.
