Family-friendly vacation rentals in San Juan Islands

Our stay at Jessie’s was amazing! Beautiful surroundings, easy check-in and check-out and just a wonderful stay overall! Hands down the best place to stay when visiting Skagit Valley. We hope to be back soon!

We loved our stay in this beautiful home! Great location, close to a beach for walking, and easy drive to restaurants and areas for wonderful walks. Lovely garden and outside area to sit. Well stocked kitchen with everything we needed to cook simple meals. A perfect place for a get away.

We have stayed at this place with our best friends and this place has created best memories for us. Though weather was not good during our stay but there are plenty of option inside house and within premises to spent our time. House is neat and clean and instructions are written at exact place where we really need. I would say this is not the house this is mansion with large front yard and kind of private beach facing. There was a beautiful way which leads us to beach where you can spent good time particularly during sunny days. We would definitely love to revisit this place again. Host was very supportive and cooperative.

We really loved this house - a truly unique rental. Beautiful home, completely private - just perfect for our family trip to Orcas. We loved relaxing there so much we ate out less and cooked and enjoyed family time at the house. All the sights were an easy drive, and we enjoyed this part of the island. Hope to stay there again someday!

Rick was a great host, for an incredible spot. The pictures don’t do it justice. The house is so clean, and unique to the area. Wildlife everywhere, including elk. Felt really close to Port Angeles and the Olympic National Park. 10/10 would stay again.

This was our first time in Sooke and we shared Fredrick’s place with a friend we hadn’t seen in years. The warm home like environment, the separate bedroom ,bathroom spaces worked perfectly. The views were wonderful and we dined and explored the area easily. We wished we could have stayed longer.

Amazing!! This house was even more wonderful, spacious and beautiful than the pictures can tell. Extremely clean, and well appointed...the hot tub and sauna room were a fun touch. The space has a wonderful open layout that was perfect for our group of women on retreat. These are lovely laid back hosts as well!

We had a great time at Scott’s place. It was the perfect accommodation for a weekend of snowboarding at Mt. Baker. Some highlights were; the hot tub after a day on the mountain, the game cube which had Mario cart to keep us entertained, and how close the cabin was to some yummy restaurants (Chair 9- great pizza). Scott was also going to allow us to stay an extra night since the weather going back to Vancouver wasn’t great for driving which was very kind. Would recommend his place to anyone and would love to come back in the summer to explore.

Great landing spot near the Olympic National Park. Located in a nice neighborhood. Our pup enjoyed the fenced in yard, and we enjoyed the salt water hot tub after long days. The kitchen was well equipped to make full meals. Comfortable bed and living room furniture. Tons of space to spread out. I’d rent it again.

We stayed in Friday Harbor for three nights and four days to celebrate our anniversary, and it was such a memorable time. Nigel was very communicative in helping answer all my questions before the trip, and he checked in with us during our stay. Our whole family, including a toddler, had a blast utilizing the private-access beach right outside of Nigel’s Airbnb. The location was a stone’s throw away from the local downtown that took just minutes to drive to. Overall, it’s a great place for a serene retreat or mini getaway on such a beautiful island. We’ll be sure to tell friends about it!

Marcell is a great host, friendly and communicative. Very helpful with local suggestions and very accommodating. I would definitely stay here again if the listing is available the next time I’m in Seattle.

Phil was wonderful to engage with and the place was cozy and a perfect retreat for our weekend skiing!

We really enjoyed our time at Trish’s place! It was very clean, had a beautiful view, and all the animals were so adorable. Trish and Nick were also wonderful hosts. I would highly recommend!

Miriam's place is the most well apponted and stocked Air b and B's we've stayed in. Beautiful and felt like home with all of the lovely furnishing! 10 out of 10 reccomend!

Niki and Neale were both amazing hosts! They were really sweet people. This is the best place to stay on Salt Spring if you’re a couple. The location is so convenient and the view from the bedroom is beautiful. We will definitely be staying with them again to see their dog Gus and cat Mickey. Thanks for the unforgettable stay!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay with Lynna and Dennis. The cottage was just as described, just steps from the waterfront and we enjoyed the private beaches and daily kayaking excursions from the dock. What a peaceful, beautiful and relaxing spot. My only regret is that we could not stay longer.... but we will, next time. Lynna provided very helpful instructions ahead of time about the ferry and reservations. The cottages are both charming and fully-equipped, very clean and everything was as-written. There are plenty of restaurants to choose from, both in Westsound (a few) and more options in Eastsound and beyond. I'd highly recommend, and we're already planning our next trip back.

We had a lovely stay at Billie’s place while visiting Salt Spring for a soccer tournament, and for our first trip with our new puppy! The place was very clean, lots of space, the kitchen had a large fridge and freezer for our snacks, and the bed was extremely comfortable. I even okayed the piano for the first time in years there! We enjoyed having a mudroom to take our boots/cleats/shoes off in and wipe our puppy’s paws before going inside. There’s also a nice lawn in front where we could play with the pup and it was walking distance from the local cidery. Overall it felt like our home away from home during our busy weekend visit.

The hosts had an incredibly clean suite. It had plenty of room with an extremely comfortable bed and the most comfortable sofa bed I’ve ever slept on. The bathroom amenities were not cut-rate products, but high quality. The view of the water was spectacular; we even had the added bonus of seeing some wildlife in the backyard from our window. The indoor pool was the incentive that kept my 4- year old grandson on his best behavior. It was depressing to have to leave. It felt like we were at home.

We had a great time at Anna's house and immediately felt right at home. It had everything we needed. It felt perfectly secluded and private in spite of the neighborhood being relatively dense. The view of the lake was beautiful. We appreciated the house's proximity to Bellingham and the area's sprawling mountain bike trails. Grateful for our time there!

Very calm and peaceful getaway to unwind

Agata’s place was so beautiful, in a great location and very comfortable to stay in! There was lots to do around the area and it felt very safe. It was very easy to check in, even when going with a vehicle and the instructions were super easy to follow. Agata also responded quickly to messages and made communication stress-free. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Derek’s place was very clean and cozy. It was very welcoming and we felt like home when we stayed at his place. My family were very comfortable while staying there and Derek was also easy to communicate wiith. Overall we had a wonderful time.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely perfect for a first-time visit to Seattle! We couldn’t have picked a better spot for our first trip to Seattle. The location was incredible—truly walking distance to many major attractions, restaurants, and sights. We hardly needed our car at all (walked 80% of the time), but it was such a relief to have secured off-street parking (garage) available when we did need it. We also travel with our dog, and this place was perfect for that! There was a nice, pet-friendly setup with easy access to outdoor space, which made things super convenient for quick walks and exercise. The amenities were great. The rental includes use of the pool, dry sauna, workout room and rooftop viewing deck —everything was clean, well-maintained, and a nice bonus after long days of exploring the city. Highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Seattle, especially if you want walkability, parking peace of mind, and a pet-friendly environment. Would definitely stay again!

Second stay here, will continue to be my go to place when staying in Woodinville area.
