Summary: The best part of Sunrise Cottaea is the change to watch Haro Strait with Oak Bay to the Right, Mt. Baker straight ahead, and the San Juan Islands to the left. The cottage itself is very comfortable - and welcoming, as are Mary and Pepper. A delightful place to spend two weeks!

Summary: Mary was an amazing host in every way!! We had a late arrival and she easily adjusted and accommodated that. We had lovely vegetables, herbs and fruits from her garden, along with a greeting basket of goodies when we arrived. The cottage was truly adorable and the views from the property and nearby were amazing. We would definitely stay here again.

Summary: Mary was a delightful host as was her dog, Pepper. We found her cottage to be very clean and perfectly charming. The large view of her garden was outstanding and strolling in the gardens to the water’s edge was a daily treat for us. We also enjoyed walking to nearby rocky coves. And added bonus was the good sleep we enjoyed at the cottage; the mattress was A+ and the sheets were of very high quality. The kitchen was simple, but sufficient when paired with takeout from the nearby grocery and restaurants. We hope to return!
