  • What a great House

    April 8, 2023      What a great house!  Very comfortable and stunning views.  Unfortunately, no whales yet, but its a little early.  My brother and I loved the scramble down the rocks and hunt for sea-glass on the little beach.  We spotted the foxes many times.  Thanks for such a gorgeous place.    Sarah

  • Can’t wait to return

    May 2023             Myself, my mother and aunts, amateur naturalists all, came to San Juan Island to find the critically endangered Island Marble butterfly.  We found it and so much more!  This beautiful, well maintained, gorgeous property was everything we had hoped for with sea life, birds, and endless vistas.  Suzanne,…

  • A magical place

    Oct 2022.        We’ve been coming to the Waterhouse since 2008.   This magical place has a way of transporting you to another universe.  I would have never dreamed to see a 5 hour Orca parade, but it happened.  Woke up pre-dawn on our first day to a few loud smacks on on the…

  • Cozy Welcoming Space

  • Whales!!

    4/04/2022.  We had a wonderful time.  We were lucky enough to see a pod of 6 or 7 Orcas just beyond the cove.  It was calm enough and they were close enough for us to hear the blows of the large male!    Dave

  • What a prime piece of property!!

    3/27/2022.  We had such a relaxing time!  We were on island for 6 days and never turned the TV on once.  Each read 3 books, played Cribbage, and drank wine.  We started at the ocean A LOT.  We saw harbor porpoise, sea lions, harbor seals, river otters, fox, deer, and bald eagles.  We saw a…
