Lopez Island, Island Views #116

BEACHFRONT VACATION RENTAL HOME ON LOPEZ ISLAND - DOG FRIENDLY, TOO!

Bring friends, family, and the dog, you are going to have a fantastic vacation in this Lopez Island waterfront home! To start, there is a long pebbled beach with a great view of Mount Baker directly across the lawn in front of the house. The beach is shared with a few neighbors, but as it stretches for a mile or so in both directions, you can typically have a picnic, sit on a log, or wander about quite privately. Between the house and the beach there is a big grassy lawn that is wonderful for croquet, badminton, and tossing around a ball with the dog. The property has a completely fenced back garden area with BBQ and patio as well. A low deck runs along the entire front of the home, another space where you can sit outside to enjoy the sunshine.

The home is wonderful for one or two couples, but as the floor plan is rambling and the rooms are spacious it is super for families, too. The living room opens to the deck and has a wood burning fireplace and game table. The den is just off the living room and it contains a desk and futon sofa that can be converted to a double bed. Up a step, there is a large area containing an open kitchen with great appliances, dining area with large table.

The home has three bedrooms. The master bedroom has a king size bed, desk, and large bathroom with soaking tub, toilet compartment, and walk-in shower. The second bedroom contains a queen bed as well as a connecting bathroom. However, this bedroom additionally opens into the laundry room, so it can either be utilized privately from the queen bedroom or shared with others staying in the third bedroom. The third bedroom houses three sets of bunks for kids.

You are also welcome to respectfully listen to the owners classic record collection from the 70’s and enjoy their collection of toys, board games, and lawn game equipment and enjoy the high-speed internet access.

  a guest from Juneau, AK recommends this vacation rental

  We felt at home right from the start: The young cousins found games and toys which they happily played with in the great bunk room. The older set enjoyed the spacious kitchen, living areas and great views. Everything was in good working condition and the appliances of good quality. The house was clean. We found that the front guest room only had a futon bed and it wasn’t close to the bathrooms; it’s not a good room for a senior. The largest bathroom would have been better if it had a door to close it off from the master bedroom. Other factors outweighed these inconveniences as we all enjoyed our stay and would stay there again.

  Sandra M from Athol, ID recommends this vacation rental

  We had a wonderful early spring vacation at this rental. Clean house. Smells clean. Carpets look brand new. Fully furnished. Fully stocked with kitchen tools. We cooked every morning and evening and we found everything we needed, even an excellent hot plate for making pancakes! We were a couple and two of our young adult children and one dog. The beds were very comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet. The house is wonderful for a well-behaved dog, thank you for accommodating dogs, and thank you for the page of dog rules, we expect the same from our dogs at home. The fenced yard, dog towels, and extra dog bowls were very useful. Thank you for the wonderful binder of information about the island, the beach guide was wonderful, we went to every beach. There is a very large room with 3-4 bunk beds that we didn't use, this would be wonderful if you had a couple families with lots of kids. The only drawback is that there is only one bathroom outside the master bedroom. Only 2 bathrooms in total. So even though the house, kitchen, eating area, living room and yard could accommodate large family gatherings, the bathroom situation could be tricky. If we come to Lopez again, we would love to stay here again. We cleaned up after ourselves before we left and we got 100% of our security deposit back, thank you! I highly recommend this home as a vacation rental.

  a guest from Wenatchee, WA recommends this vacation rental

  We loved this house! The location is ideal. It is close enough to Lopez Village to bike there easily, and Spencer Spit is only a mile away. The huge lawn with a view of the sound is awesome for playing games like badminton and volleyball! We brought our dog with and were happy to find out that there is also a fenced in area for your dog to run around a bit while you are home. The kitchen is awesome, with really beautiful appliances - especially for a rental. There are so many games to play, and puzzles to work on that you don't need to bring your own. The walk to the beach is very short, and although it is steep but we had no problem getting our kayaks down. You will see deer in the early morning and evenings. Also, a blue heron likes to sit down by the waters edge. Seals were spotted too! The beds are comfortable and it is very quiet at night here. The only thing that I would recommend for the owner if they plan on renovating in the future is that it would be great if there was one more bathroom, preferably not attached to a bedroom. Right where the game room is now would be ideal!
  
  We would definitely stay here again.

  We needed to house 9 wedding guests and family. Island View was beautiful and contributed to the joy of the wedding celebration. Getting up early for the sunrise on the front deck, watching the Washngton State Ferrys slip through the nearby passage and the deer nibble their way across the yard were highlights. The kitchen was amply supplied with extras that simplified our meals away from the wedding gathering. The kids enjoyed the many, many games and puzzles and the adults spent quiet evenings spinning LPs from a huge collection. Very fun. The beach was a bit of a hike but worth the effort.

  Gabe A from Portland, OR recommends this vacation rental

  Beautiful house, and a very beautiful location. We had a great stay.
  As far as the house, everything was clean and tidy. Some light switches didn't work but it wasn't a problem. I do wish there were stairs to get from the path down to the beach area - that stretch from the grass down to the flat part of the beach is steep and dangerous. And we noticed that many nearby houses have stairs for this stretch.
  Lastly, I appreciate that pets are allowed but I think a $35/night pet fee is totally exorbitant. I've never paid more than $15 a night for a pet fee.

  • Manager Responded on 7/26/2017

    Dear Guest, Thank you for choosing to visit the Islands and for staying with us. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay! Island Views is a beautiful property and Lopez is a wonderful island - probably my favorite of the three but don't tell anyone I said that :)! We do appreciate your feedback and take to heart your comments about the pet rent. Unfortunately we experience a fair bit of expense around pet stays with damage that occurs so the rent is needed to cover those costs. We do sincerely hope you return to the Islands soon and contact us for your next vacation experience! Best Regards, General Manager

  Our extended family had a wonderful time! We loved the eastern exposure and the big lawn where we enjoyed a 3 generation game of kickball. The large kitchen allowed workspace for several cooks. We sat comfortably at the long dinner table. We've been vacationing at least a week on Lopez Island every summer for more than 12 years. Love it!

  Just as great as five years ago! We stayed here with two families (four adults, and four kids, ages 2-7) for five nights and had a great time. Day trips to different gorgeous beaches/hikes, and trips to pick raspberries and strawberries. Used our own Stand-up-Paddleboard to drop the crab pot off the beach in front of the house, and caught the limit in crab every day! Ate very, very well! The record collections is still super fun, and the puzzles provide a lazy-day activity while gazing at the beautiful view. If I had one recommendation, and eating table on the sea-side-view porch would be a great addition! Loved our stay and hope to be back again!

  This home is very nice and set up great for multiple families. The big kids room with the bunks & toys was great for the little ones to have their own space. Know that the beach is all rocks so difficult to spend much time especially with small children. The deck faces east so you don't get the afternoon sun. Other than that, it's a great home and close to town. We love Lopez and have made it an annual destination.

  If you haven't already fallen in love with Lopez Island you sure are going to after staying at this fabulous home! My husband and I have been visiting the island for years and have always been searching for the perfect vacation rental and we have finally found it. We have stayed at many wonderful homes but nothing has compared to this. If you want to soak up all the peace and beauty has to offer you do not need to look any further than this deck and backyard. In addition it is a fabulous place for families and friends to gather and feel comfortable and spacious. Your furry friends can join you as well! By far the greatest vacation rental we have found on Lopez Island. Can't wait to come back for another visit!

  a guest from boise, idaho recommends this vacation rental

  Although the house seemed a bit off the beaten path from town and at a distance from other family members who were renting on Lopez as well, the views, amazingly huge kitchen, single level enormous floor plan, and impressive record collection made this our favorite house so far that we've rented in the 10 years that we've been vacationing on Lopez. Unfortunately, the view is a bit downgraded by neighbors surrounding junk, and the house needs a good scrubbing and thorough de-cluttering--lots of clutter in the closets, kitchen shelves, and smattered throughout the house. Also, two bathrooms to be shared among 3 families had its challenges, and many of the linens are stained--towels had a lot of bleach marks, and some were ragged, and the comforter on the queen bed had blood stains. But the the idea of having multiple different colored towels is a great idea--everybody gets assigned a color! One final comment--replace the washer & dryer, they are dinosaurs and the dryer takes hours to dry one load! Overall, a great vacation home, responsive and organized property management team, plenty of space to carve out your quiet time, and beautiful water views!

  a guest from Elgin, Texas does not recommend this vacation rental.

  Although the house was nice, it could have used a little sprucing up. Pretty bad stains on the carpets. Not a terrific view, as the house is pretty far away from the water. Would have been nice to have satellite TV, but we did appreciate the interenet access. The best things about the house were the great gourmet designed kitchen and the vintage vinyl record collection!

  The location and accomodations were great! I loved the great spaces and indoor/outdoor games provided.

There is no TV reception but internet is provided and you could bring some DVDs as a player is provided.

  The option to rent 2 nights vs 3 will eventually drive us to the other properties on Lopez. Our group consisted of 33 people and 4 rental homes. I only organized 2. But the other folks were able to get a home just as big for less money and less days....that is our only complaint. Our group continues to grow each year for the annual tour de lopez trip and we have rented #116 for the last 4 years.... some folks have come early and it felt like we got our $ worth. But, if you could look into a 2 night stay with a later check out - at least noon we all like to sleep in - you'll probably keep our business.

  • Manager Responded on 5/4/2010

    We regret that most of our Lopez Island homes do not accomodate 2 night bookings. Please let us know what works for your group early next spring and we will do whatever is possible to accomodate you.

  This is our third year at this house and we had a wonderful time there, as always. I was surprised to find the house not as clean as it usually is - mostly the bathrooms (there was mold in the shower). But other than that, a wonderful home and another great visit. The management staff was extremely helpful!
