Convenient, comfortable, cute place in Eastsound
Stayed here over a weekend in September for a ladies' weekend while participating in a trail running event at Moran State Park. This was a comfortable and cute place and I wish we'd had more time just to hang out here! Check-in and check-out were both easy, the location was great, property was quiet and peaceful, and beds were comfortable. Would stay again for sure!

Wonderful girls weekend
Friends from grade school, now in our 50’s, enjoyed a quiet and relaxing four days. Nice easy walking path to town, plenty of good restaurants (one person was gluten free and restaurants were knowledgeable!) house was lovely with plenty of room for alone time if needed. Hiking trails and views galore! It was a wonderful time.

We enjoyed staying at this property very much. The only trouble we had was with the key pad to enter the front door and lock up when we went out. It took several attempts each time we used it for it to accept the code.

Cozy for a winter stay
This was the third time I’ve rented this beautiful home in January or February, which has to say something ! I would buy this place in a heartbeat. With the cozy fireplace, well designed lighting and fully equipped, full size appliances it is perfect even if it’s rainy … but THIS time the weather was unusually nice. I’m sure it’s very nice “ in season” but Orcas Island is much too crowded in summer.

Great stay, cute and cozy home
Overall our stay was great and comfortable. The issue we had, which really bums me out is the lack of communication from Vacasa. I would have personally messaged the owner if there was a possibility, so instead, I hope she sees this. Prior to our arrival, I confirmed with them twice that there is a pack n play in the house and upon arriving late at night after a 16 hour travel day with our 9 month old, there wasn’t one at the house. I contacted Vacasa probably 6 times and each time they told me they’d “check on it” and never responded back, not even 7 days later. I finally gave up after 3 days. We are on an island in the middle of no where and had to scramble and have our family reach out to Facebook groups to try and get us a PP for our 9 month old. I have had problems with Vacasa in the past like this where they just stop responding instead of actually helping. Being an owner of 4 rental properties myself, I would highly encourage the owner to get a new management company. It too cute of a place to have such terrible service. Everything else was great, the house was super cozy!

The property was great, perfectly situated for walks into the little town, right in the middle of the Island for easy drives or bikes to other areas. Clean, well appointed, very comfortable. Was great for us - 3 mid-age women who like to hang out together. Looks like would be good for group with kids or teens as well as there was a nice private downstairs area. Highly recommend.

Orcas Comfort
This is the third time staying on Orcas Island. This last time the rental was within walking distance to Eastsound. This made things very convenient to walk to the different shops and restaurants. The house was in great shape, clean and comfortably decorated. The few things that could easily be fixed are the oven, dining chair seats and a tree brushing against the upstairs east bedroom. We weren’t able to turn on the oven and was latter notified that we had to leave the broiler on for 5 minutes before it works. The dining chair seats were not the firmest but still okay and the tree branches by the east upstairs bedroom when the wind blew made some noise. These were all minor compared to the great and relaxing time in the beautiful home. We definitely would stay again!

Extra Costs at booking
I’d never run into the situation before where the initial advertised price was nearly doubled on checking out. It’s misleading at the least.

Great stay!
Happy that we choose to spend a week here. This is our 2nd time to visit Orcas Island. Stayed at a resort the first time. Definitely preferred staying at a house vs resort/hotel. It was very cozy, clean and comfortable. The island restaurants as well as the few grocery stores close early. It was great to be able to prepare meals. The living room, kitchen and half bath are located middle main floor. The kitchen pantry has all the basic spices. The home was very relaxing after day of hiking and whale watching. Eastsound was a great location. The property management company had clear instructions to get into the home. No issues with wifi. The day of our arrival we received a message that the home was ready for an early check in. They sent a message to make sure that the home was clean and if there were issues. The house was very spacious. TV was easy to use. There were books, dvds and games. Fireplace in the living room was so nice. Plenty of towels, shampoo, soap! One thing that I will mention is that guest take stairs to get to a 1st floor basement bedroom that has an extra living area and the laundry room. The other bedrooms are located on the 3rd floor. If you have any physical issues walking/climbing stairs this may be something to consider. Eastsound shopping was about a 5-minute drive. Small public beach was a 5 min drive. Moran State Park 20min away. We loved our stay at the Dream Town Craftsman and would love to come back to Orcas Island again.

Overall great with a few improvements.
The property is in a great location and fit our needs well. The house looked clean when we arrived. However when we started using dishes to eat and cook, we had to rewash a lot of them. Particularly the pans, every pan we used had food remnants left on them. The dishwasher also was dirty. Despite that we enjoyed our time. The beds were comfortable and the house was well stocked.

The proximity of the cottage to town was great, easy walk into town. The street noise was loud. The house was well appointed, but I would place waste baskets in each room. It was easy to get all over the island from the location.

We've stayed at this home before and submitted an earlier review. This is our favorite spot to stay in Eastsound, as the location can't be beat (for walkability to town) and the home is lovely, well stocked, and fits our 4 person family (+ dog!) perfectly. Highly recommended!
