Description

Tranquility and beautiful views distinguish this island retreat, a handsomely remodeled country home, conveniently located less than two hours from Seattle and one hour from Vancouver, B.C. Lummi Island, at the eastern edge of the San Juan Island group, has about 700 year-round residents, and is a primarily rural community. Enjoy a refreshing change from inn or bed and breakfast accommodations and the peace of privacy and no telephone. The spacious cottage has lovely views from every window, a fully equipped kitchen.

The house sits on the edge of an active wetland pond and is nestled amidst pastures, and an orchard abundant with apples, pears, plums, and blackberries. You'll watch the sun rise over Mount Baker and the North Cascade Mountains and observe ships sailing through Rosario Strait. The Island Retreat combines privacy and self-sufficiency with easy walking distances to beaches, and the rural artistic community of Lummi Island.
