Northwest Vacations

Northwest Vacations delivered an authentic Friday Harbor getaway that exceeded our expectations. We loved relaxing on the private deck, watching the ferries at the landing, and enjoying the peace and quiet. The unit was beautifully appointed with premium bedding, furniture, and kitchen essentials that made our stay truly comfortable. We were initially concerned about noise from the adjacent bar, but they were considerate with their hours. The location of the bakery right below us was a huge convenience. While the thirty steps to the entrance might be a bit of a hike for seniors, the effort was absolutely worth it for such a lovely spot.

Northwest Vacations delivered the perfect setting for our anniversary getaway on Orcas Island. The private home offered incredible views and total seclusion, making it hard to leave the grounds. We loved relaxing on the spacious deck, exploring the rocky shoreline, and unwinding in the soaking tub. We would gladly book with them again.

If you are chasing that perfect blend of tranquility, waterfront charm, and pet-friendly convenience, this Orcas Island gem is hard to beat. I was thrilled to find a rental that happily welcomed my 85-pound doodle. The yard had excellent leashing options, making morning strolls to local coffee shops or lunch at the dock cafe a breeze. You can tell the property is meticulously maintained, especially since the lovely owners live right next door, yet we still enjoyed total privacy throughout our stay. The serenity was exactly what we needed. After a day of paddleboarding right from the backyard, the hot tub was an absolute lifesaver. The king bed was incredibly comfortable, and I appreciated the eco-conscious efforts like the Orcas Recycling Program to keep our footprint small. I would gladly book this Northwest vacation rental again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

I had a wonderful stay at this historic property in the US. It was incredibly peaceful and private, offering ample space for my dog to play on the lawn. Access to the beach was a huge plus, and the king bed provided excellent comfort. I really appreciated the fresh flowers and am already missing the beautiful views.

Our stay at Northwest Vacations was absolutely fantastic. The Eastsound property strikes a perfect balance, offering a secluded feel while still being within walking distance to local shops, groceries, and restaurants. It was a lovely bonus to chat with friendly neighbors and their dogs. We made the most of the area by visiting Crescent Beach just down the road, swimming twice at Cascade Lake, and joining Outer Island Excursions for some great whale watching and fishing. Highly recommended!

We loved staying at Northwest Vacations again! This is our third time at this wonderful property. The view of Fisherman's Bay is beautiful and lively. The three-bedroom house is very comfortable, with a great living room, kitchen, and deck. Getting around the island is easy by car, and the location is awesome.

I was thoroughly impressed by this studio in Seattle, which offers stunning panoramic views of the bay. The location is unbeatable, sitting right across from the historic ferry terminal and just a short walk from local dining and shopping options. We loved relaxing on the deck to watch the ferries dock and depart. Northwest Vacations provided a fantastic experience, and we’d happily book here again.

The property at Northwest Vacations offers stunning vistas and a cozy atmosphere. We were particularly impressed by the high-quality kitchen equipment and the well-curated selection of reading material. It was a wonderful experience for our family, and we would happily return without hesitation.

My cousins and I chose Walnut Hill for a girls' weekend to honor my late mother, and the experience exceeded all expectations. The property is stunning, with beautiful landscaping, thoughtful decor, and an exceptional level of cleanliness. The house was perfectly equipped for our group of five, offering plenty of sleeping space and amenities. We loved starting our days with coffee outdoors and relaxing in the hot tub while gazing at the lake. Evenings were spent enjoying lively games of Yahtzee and Skyjo at the spacious dining table. The location is ideal—just a ten-minute walk to downtown Manson and a quick four-minute drive to the casino, with numerous wineries nearby. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this historic site for a memorable getaway.

I highly recommend condo D104 at Northwest Vacations. As an end unit, it offers excellent natural light and tasteful decor. We appreciated the step-free access from the parking lot directly to the patio, which was a huge help given our companion was on crutches. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the pots, pans, and utensils you might need. It was a wonderful stay, and we would definitely book again.

We had a wonderful time at Northwest Vacations. The house itself is spotless and well-kept, with a fully equipped kitchen and plenty of towels. The lake views are even more stunning in person, and the location strikes a perfect balance—quiet and peaceful, yet just a short walk from town and the waterfront park. We really appreciated having the jacuzzi and heated pool available in early May. Just a heads-up: while the backyard is fenced, it’s not completely secluded, so you’ll want to keep swimwear on at all times. Our only hiccup was a slow internet connection on day one, but the team at Northwest Vacations had someone out within an hour to sort it out, which was impressive. We loved our stay and wish we could have extended it!

Our stay at Northwest Vacations was a delightful experience. The historic site property was spotless and fully equipped with all the amenities we needed. Its location is perfect, being just a short walk to the town center, the lake, and various parks, which provided ample space for our large family. There were a few minor quirks: the rooms lack traditional closets, relying instead on dressers, and the air conditioning performance varied, with some rooms cooling better than others. We also noticed low water pressure in the showers. Despite these small issues, we thoroughly enjoyed our time there, particularly the lovely pool area.

We had a wonderful time at our Northwest Vacations rental! The location was perfect—just a stone's throw from the lake, though we actually ended up spending most of our days relaxing by the pool and in the hot tub. It was great to see the kids swimming for hours; the pool and yard were even more spacious than we anticipated. The neighborhood is quiet, yet you are just a short walk away from restaurants and coffee shops. While the air conditioning didn't cool every room perfectly in the summer heat, it wasn't a major issue. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the game room was a huge hit with the family. My only small grievances were that they didn't provide beach towels (which meant we had to pack ours, wash them, and pack them back), and we had to buy extra toilet paper during our stay. Despite these minor details, it was a fantastic experience and we would definitely return.

I really enjoyed my stay at Northwest Vacations, though the downtown location can get a bit loud. I still wake up early to appreciate the lively views of ferries coming and going. The best part is the walkability; it’s incredibly convenient to explore the city on foot from here.

My stay at Northwest Vacations was a mixed bag. The location and floor plan are definitely highlights, and the scenery was lovely. I’ll admit the interior design feels quite vintage—think 1970s—but the place was tidy. The pool table was a big hit during the cold winter evenings. However, I have a few gripes that brought the experience down. The back right burner on the stove was dead, and there wasn’t a single dish towel or cloth in sight to wipe down the counters. On top of that, the exhaust fan in the upstairs bathroom didn’t work. It would also be a nice touch to add some coat hooks in the mud room or laundry area; that little addition would save a lot of hassle with wet gear.

Northwest Vacations provided the perfect setting for our family reunion. We hosted six adults for Thanksgiving and found the house fully equipped to handle a large holiday meal without any shortages. The spacious layout was ideal for everyone to relax, and the reliable Wi-Fi made it easy for those of us who needed to stay connected while working. Although we encountered a minor sink clog in one bathroom, the property manager was incredibly responsive and had a maintenance professional on-site within an hour to resolve the issue. Highly recommended!

I stayed in the Elwha Suite at Northwest Vacations and was really impressed by the location and the views. The unit itself is excellent. However, there are two minor issues to be aware of: the entry keypad is quite unreliable and often requires three to five attempts to work, and there is noise from the coffee shop below starting around 6:15 AM with wake-up calls playing over loud music.

My group of ten adults were pleasantly surprised by the sheer size of this Northwest Vacations property. There was ample space for everyone to relax. The home was fully equipped with everything we needed for cooking and unwinding. The only minor tip for future guests: bring your own pool towels, as the house doesn't provide them. Otherwise, it was a fantastic stay.

My stay at Northwest Vacations was fantastic. The historic site was spotless and the hosts were incredibly accommodating.

My group of six recently rented a property through Northwest Vacations for a bachelorette party, and it was a perfect fit. The house offered plenty of room for all of us and was spotless. Although the weather turned cooler than expected, the heated pool and hot tub saved the day and made our evenings cozy. The location is excellent, offering stunning views and easy access to nearby wineries. Highly recommended!

Staying at this Northwest Vacations property was a fantastic experience. The home was immaculate, with crisp, modern-looking bedding and kitchenware that was genuinely clean, not just dusted off. Since we visited during a severe heatwave, having reliable air conditioning was a lifesaver, but the real highlight was the sparkling clean pool, which offered perfect relief from the 114-degree weather. We skipped the hot tub for the same reason! The layout was ideal for our multi-generational group, offering plenty of sleeping arrangements and flexible dining spots, from the large dining table to cozy kitchen and outdoor tables. The management team was also top-notch—responsive and efficient with our pre-arrival check-in details.

Our four-generation family reunion at Northwest Vacations was a wonderful experience. The property matched the description perfectly, and checking in and out was seamless. We were especially impressed by the comfortable bedding and the spacious living area, which made gathering together so easy. Having a washer and dryer on-site was a huge plus. The heated pool and hot tub were highlights of our stay. We took advantage of the nearby golf courses, casino, and shopping in Chelan. The only minor downsides were the early lawn mowing at 7:45 AM and some confusion with the glass cooktop. It would also be helpful to have clear instructions for the living room's smart TV. Overall, a fantastic place to stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Northwest Vacations in the US. The historic site property offered ample space and the highlight for us was definitely the pool. A wonderful experience!

It was a wonderful trip for our family.

We were thrilled with this spacious home, which was an ideal fit for our large family. Despite having four children under four, we never felt cramped thanks to the generous layout. The kids absolutely adored the pool! The kitchen was fully stocked with all the essentials we needed to cook and clean up easily. While communication from the rental host was slightly slower than usual, it didn’t detract from the experience. This property is highly recommended, and we would definitely book it again.

We stumbled upon this gem in November for a weekend escape and it was worth every penny. The harbor scenery is stunning, and the cottage itself is in pristine condition, equipped with all the necessities. Honestly, the pictures online don’t do the interior justice—it’s spotless, incredibly cozy, and has that authentic cabin charm rather than feeling like a sterile rental. Plus, the expansive yard was a dream for our dog. Northwest Vacations really delivered an exceptional experience, and we can’t wait to return.

We are delighted to be back at Northwest Vacations for another stay in their charming 2-bedroom unit. Every aspect of this condo, especially the scenic bay window and its prime location, has won us over completely. It has quickly become a beloved annual tradition for our family, and we are already counting down the days until we can return. Thank you for providing such a wonderful home away from home.

We stayed at Northwest Vacations in the US during an October conference, and the timing was perfect—it was quite quiet. The unit felt like an older condo, but it was well-equipped with all the amenities we needed. While the beds, linens, and pillows were very comfortable, the kitchen cabinets are the one part that hasn’t been upgraded. We didn’t spend much time inside, but the location is incredibly convenient. I’d definitely stay here again. However, a deeper clean is needed, particularly around the baseboards and bathroom floors. Also, keep an eye on the hallway shower plumbing; the loose spouts on both the top and bottom fixtures will likely cause issues if they aren’t fixed soon.

Staying at Northwest Vacations was a highlight of our trip. The hosts truly care about their guests, and it shows in every detail of the property. The cottage is nestled among tall trees with a serene view of the water, offering complete privacy and a comfortable, home-like atmosphere. We loved the fully equipped kitchen, which made it easy to prepare meals using fresh ingredients from the nearby farmers market. While cooking was a joy, we also appreciated the easy access to excellent five-star dining options with great regional wines.

The attention to detail at Northwest Vacations’ historic site property made the experience so enjoyable that I’ll certainly be booking a return visit.

Staying at the Muranne Home through Northwest Vacations was another wonderful experience for us. As loyal guests, we’ve always appreciated the quality of their rental pool, and this new property on Orcas Island certainly lives up to that reputation.

My recent experience with Northwest Vacations was truly excellent. From the moment I reached out with a question, their management team was prompt, answering my voicemail and following up via email without delay. The drive to the property was scenic, and the wildflowers lining the driveway set a lovely tone. The cabin itself is stunning, spotless, and thoroughly thought-out. Every detail seems to have been considered by the owners, and the beds provided amazing comfort. We relied on the fully equipped kitchen for nearly all our meals, finding it had exactly what we needed. For that one night out, we ate in nearby Eastsound, which offers a wonderful selection of dining options. During our stay, we explored local highlights like hiking Mt. Constitution and Cascade Lake, and visited the galleries and Orcas Island Pottery. However, the highlight was simply unwinding at the cabin. The atmosphere is incredibly serene, and enjoying coffee on the deck overlooking the lake was the perfect way to relax. If you are seeking a beautiful, peaceful retreat, this property is an outstanding choice.

If you are looking for a top-tier stay in Friday Harbor, Northwest Vacations is hard to beat. Their historic site location puts you right in the heart of the action with stunning views. The suite itself is pristine and wonderfully charming. We adored every aspect of the property, with one exception: the sleep experience. The mattress is quite firm and left us feeling unrested, and the provided pillows were too flat and insufficient in number for comfort. If management updates the bedding, this spot would be perfect. We would definitely return if the mattress situation improves, as the location and charm of this historic property are truly unbeatable.

I highly recommend Northwest Vacations for anyone seeking a peaceful retreat on the Islands. Their property is a well-maintained home tucked away in the woods on the island's edge, offering stunning views of the canal and the ocean beyond. While it is a bit of an investment, the house is fully equipped with everything you might need. The only suggestion I have is to add some chaise lounges to the porch to enhance the relaxation experience. Keep in mind that it is a bit remote—about 35 minutes from the ferry and 15-20 minutes from Eastsound—but if you value solitude and scenery, this location is perfect. A big thank you to the General Manager for the warm response and for considering the furniture idea; it’s nice to know they care about guest comfort.

We couldn't have picked a better home for our group of eight adults and three kids.

My husband and I had a wonderful time at this Northwest Vacations property in September. The proximity to the ferry made getting around very convenient. We appreciated how well-equipped the kitchen was, as we ended up cooking and dining in quite often. While the bathroom was excellent, it would have been nice if it were located downstairs near the master bedroom. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the fireplace was a perfect touch for those cool mornings and evenings. We also spent some lovely time relaxing on the master bedroom couch, enjoying the TV. But the real highlight was the breathtaking view. Watching the water and surrounding nature was mesmerizing. One morning, I was up before sunrise and witnessed a spectacular display of colors reflecting off the bay as the sun rose over a distant island—it was truly unforgettable.

Loved our time at Northwest Vacations! The views are absolutely stunning and really worth the stay. Just a heads-up: the unit is located right above a coffee shop, so it can get a bit noisy in the morning.

While we didn't spend much time actually in Roche Harbor, the island is small and convenient to explore. The team was wonderful and seamless to work with throughout the process.

Stayed at a fantastic spot just across from the ferry terminal. The neighborhood is super convenient with plenty of shops and restaurants within a short walk. Perfect for anyone looking to explore Northwest Vacations' historic sites on foot. Highly recommended for its central location!

We are loyal visitors to Northwest Vacations, and this condo remains a top choice for us thanks to its breathtaking views and the convenience of having a coffee shop right downstairs. However, the experience was slightly marred by two specific issues: the mattress was incredibly firm, causing significant back pain, and the floors felt surprisingly unclean, leaving our socks dirty within minutes (we even brought slippers this time to avoid the grime). It is a shame, as the location and scenery are truly unmatched. We hope the management addresses these maintenance points so future guests at their San Juan Islands properties can enjoy a more comfortable stay.

Northwest Vacations delivered an excellent rental experience in a truly secluded historic setting. The booking process through VRBO was smooth, and the property itself was pristine and fully stocked. It’s hard to top this level of maintenance and location.

I had a wonderful stay at Northwest Vacations! The location is fantastic, and the amenities were nearly perfect. The space was clean and quiet, making it ideal for families with children. However, keep in mind that the loft layout works best for three couples rather than four. Highly recommended for a peaceful getaway.

Northwest Vacations delivered a wonderful getaway in a stunning home with gorgeous views. The property was incredibly well-stocked and conveniently located just a short drive from the sound. It’s the perfect setup for couples looking to relax.

Our family of six had a wonderful time at this Orcas Island property. The space was generous and perfect for us, and the scenery was truly breathtaking. It was such a treat to see deer wandering right up to the house! Having two fireplaces added a wonderful cozy touch to the evenings. We are already looking forward to our next visit to Northwest Vacations.

We had a fantastic time at Northwest Vacations. As two couples without kids, we really appreciated the well-equipped kitchen, which made dining at home a breeze. The location offers stunning views, and the property is full of cozy nooks to relax in. We loved the telescope for stargazing and the hot tub was a perfect bonus. The only downside was the mattress in the second bedroom, which was quite worn and affected our sleep quality. My advice? If you have to choose, definitely secure the master suite—it’s worth it!

My spouse and I had a fantastic long weekend at this historic site property in Deer Harbor. We really appreciated the quiet location, which allowed us to enjoy outdoor dining while watching the seal pups play. The low-bank waterfront is a great spot, and there is plenty of grassy area or beach space for kayak storage that stays clear of high tide. I’d give it five stars for the location and atmosphere, but keep in mind that pets aren’t allowed to be left alone in the house. This makes it less ideal if you plan to go on longer day hikes, bike rides, or eat out without your dog. Still, it’s an absolutely wonderful place!

We had a wonderful stay at this historic property. The architecture and layout are truly unique, with the bathroom being a particular highlight thanks to the deep soaking tub and the peaceful little outdoor nook. It was lovely relaxing on the deck or in the living area while taking in the water views, and the top bedroom offered stunning vistas. Just a heads-up for future guests: the house has an open feel, so sound carries easily throughout. If you’re bringing a group, keep that in mind. Also, remember to bring your own firewood for the fireplace. Highly recommend!

Our family absolutely loved staying with Northwest Vacations. Having owned a home on a Minnesota lake ourselves, we’ve had plenty of experience with vacation rentals, but this one truly stands out. The attention to detail in both the design and the landscaping is exceptional. It was a dream come true for our family chef, who was thrilled by the kitchen and the meals he created. The deck was the perfect spot to unwind, and with our own vacation home just three doors away, it felt like the perfect extension of home. The cool weather was a refreshing bonus. Thank you for sharing this beautiful property!

We had a fantastic experience staying here! The location is incredibly convenient, especially being so close to the Lopez ferry landing, which made island hopping a breeze. While the house isn't overly fancy, it’s well-appointed and features two lovely decks overlooking the water. Highly recommended for a peaceful getaway.

My partner and I recently spent two weeks at this Northwest property, returning to a place we loved from a previous visit. It’s clear the owners have cared for the home diligently, as it remains in pristine shape with updated kitchen and bathroom fixtures. The master bedroom features a super comfortable king bed and a wonderful shower. We also appreciated the lovely views from the spacious deck. While the house isn’t huge, it’s an ideal retreat for two, yet still accommodates more guests thanks to the sleeper sofa and two twin beds in a charming alcove that kids will adore.

Staying at this property in the Northwest was an absolute delight, offering some of the most breathtaking island vistas I’ve ever seen. The home itself was cozy and immaculate, with such nice touches like plush towels and perfectly pressed linens that made us feel right at home. Waking up with coffee on the beautiful deck was exactly what a relaxing getaway should be—especially when paired with a fresh pastry from Holly B’s down the road. We were initially a bit concerned about living close to the ferry, but there was zero issue with noise or traffic clogging up the parking spot. Plus, the wooded surroundings gave the house a wonderful sense of privacy.

We had a wonderful stay at our rental through Northwest Vacations. The house was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully furnished. Located just past the spit on a quiet wooded road, it offered incredible opportunities for nature watching right from the water’s edge, whether the weather was calm or stormy. We enjoyed scenic 2.5-mile round trips walking to the Spit every day. The kitchen was a highlight, fully equipped with even sharpened knives, which was a nice touch. The layout provided great privacy, with the master suite on one side and two additional bedrooms separated by a hallway. There were a few minor hiccups: we experienced intermittent water pressure issues and the Wi-Fi signal was weak, requiring us to contact the provider for better bandwidth. We also had to bring our own devices since the built-in Roku didn’t accept our passwords, though a radio would have been a nice bonus. Our property managers were very responsive and quick to help, despite the internet password in their welcome packet being incorrect (we found the right one inside the house). All in all, we felt lucky to find this peaceful and charming property.

I felt like I had found a peaceful retreat at Northwest Vacations in the historic site area. Every window in the house offered a wonderful view, and the interior design really added to the calm atmosphere. The only minor hiccup was with the sliding doors in the master bathroom, which seemed stuck and could use some maintenance. Other than that, my stay was excellent.

We had an absolute blast at Northwest Vacations! The property is stunning, with plenty of space and breathtaking views from just about every angle. It’s so inviting that we rarely felt the need to leave. The hot tub was a highlight, and the well-equipped kitchen made gourmet cooking a breeze. We spent evenings playing games and reading by the baby grand piano. The location is perfect—close enough to the ferry for convenience, yet secluded enough to feel private. It truly was a slice of heaven. We can’t wait to come back and highly recommend this spot!

My family and I had a fantastic time at Klahowya in Washington. The location is incredibly convenient, right near the ferry landing, which made getting on and off the boats a breeze. We were initially worried about ferry noise, but keeping the windows shut did a great job of blocking out the horns. The spacious porches are a highlight, offering stunning views of the water and passing ships. Our only minor tip for future guests would be to bring an extra cupboard or shelf, as we had some food supplies that needed storage space. Overall, a wonderful experience with Northwest Vacations that we thoroughly enjoyed.

Northwest Vacations is an absolutely magical venue! We are already planning our wedding there for next year and couldn't be happier with our choice.
