This cottage is located about two miles west of Deer Harbor, Washington, where it is situated on the western shore of Orcas Island. Set right at the water's edge, the cottage provides guests with sweeping, panoramic views of the Salish Sea and the forested shores of Jones Island, San Juan Island, and Spieden Island. The views are especially spectacular at sunset, with the sun sinking below the distant island-fringed horizon directly in front of the cottage and casting myriad shades of red and orange over the vast expanse of water in between.

The surrounding sea and land are teeming with wildlife, including otters, seals, sea lions, dolphins, orcas, blue herons, eagles, loons, cormorants, seagulls, rabbits, and deer. About 11 minutes to the east, guests will find the Turtleback Mountain South Trailhead, which leads into the Turtleback Mountain Preserve. Here, guests can explore a network of trails that weave through 1,718-acres of pristine conifer forests, Garry oak woodlands, meadows, and wetlands.

For more enjoyment of the great outdoors, guests can head to Moran State Park, which lies about 35 minutes to the east. Here, they will find 38 miles of hiking trails, 11 miles of biking trails, and six miles of horseback riding trails winding through more than 5,000 acres of forests and wetlands, which are dotted with five lakes and four scenic waterfalls.

Guests will find a couple of dining options just a few minutes away in Deer Harbor, with more to be found in Eastsound, which is about 25 minutes to the northeast. In Eastsound, guests will also boutique shops, art galleries, and local outfitters such as Orcas Island Board Shops and Wildlife Cycles. The cottage is about three hours and 15 minutes (including ferry transport) from Seattle, where the nearest international airport is located.
