Vacations can not get any better than this, I feel certain. Even when the weather is stormy and frightening as it wakes us up all through two nights, and there happens to be construction going on next door (really, the chances of this are incredibly slim!), my husband and I felt grateful for every minute. Jennifer is a wonder hostess... More

Staying at the Sunset House on Orcas Island last month was a delight. Over the years, driving to one of the San Juan Islands from Seattle and only staying one long day was frustrating. I always wanted to stay for a week to really get to know an island. I chose Orcas because of the hiking trails at Moran State... More

We arrived to our Westsound home on the beach with everything ready. Dropped the kayaks on the back yard by the water. Ate at Chamayo's for Italian dinner with great crab ravioli... and they serve Mexican food during the day. The market by the ferry had great food so we ate salmon and steak. A local sheep farm provided lamb... More

In getting ready to write my review of Sunset House, I read the lasted one posted. Our experience was totally different. There were 3 couples, all of whom have traveled quite a bit and stayed in some really nice places. All of us were very pleased with this house. It looked as though there had been a renovation in the... More

Our family of four stayed in Westsound house for two nights in August 2011. We tend to stay at large resorts when on vacation, and usually eat out for every meal. This was a totally different -- and truly memorable -- experience. Westsound is an older home in a beautiful location a few feet from the water. It has the... More

We stayed at the Sunset House in July 2010 (tripadvisor wont let me put in the earlier date). At that time (not sure if it’s changed now) the furniture inside the house was pretty awful. The couch in the living room smelled like dogs. The carpet was in bad condition. The floor in the kitchen and dining area was dirty.... More

We've visited Orcas on and off for over 10 years, always staying in houses rented by Cabins on the Point via Jennifer Fralick. She's a wonderful host and her houses are really great. We've stayed in both Sunset House and Highlands House and love both. They're both very comfortable and well-appointed, and are well-suited to a relaxing and peaceful stay--and... More

Sunset House was a perfect place for our family of 6 adults to relax. The house is on a bluff overlooking the Pacific 180 degrees. We had a view of gorgeous sunrises and sunsets everyday. An eagle spent the cocktail/appetizer hour with us in a nearby tree. The kitchen is well-equipped and there is a comfortable dining table, which sits... More

I have stayed in both cabins and the cottage, and each has its unique magical charm. But all have two things in common: (1) the extraordinary corner of the earth that they occupy, and (2) the aesthetic sensibilities and TLC that the owner puts into every detail. With more reasons to return there than I can possibly list here, I... More
