No ferry, Camano Island Garden Cottage - the peaceful Island you can drive to. | Cottage in Camano Island

Please read the full description before booking and let me know you did when requesting a booking, even if insta booking. The garden cottage offers comfortable charm overlooking gardens bursting in flowers in season and just a 1.2 block/ 3-5 minute walk from our private community beach. If you EVER SMOKE (or vape) ANYTHING, do not book this rental!! No need to read on except to learn that you will be charged a minimum of $600 for residual smoke smell of any kind. We may have to cancel bookings for several days and up to a week over residual smoke! My nose will know, even if you don’t smoke here. That aura follows you like a Linus cloud…We wash each piece of bedding and sanitize/rotate out all pillows/ and liner/covers for each guest booking. There is no water view. The private community beach which you may use as our guests is a .12 mile (just over a block) walk.
NO PETS!! I realize that dogs are very popular around here and there are places where you can take them. Sorry, not sorry, not here- if you bring fido you will be assessed additional cleaning/ time loss fees.
The cottage has it's own private gated entrance and ground level deck with Adirondack chairs, a propane fire pit stove is available upon request , a breakfast table and chairs, and a small gas barbecue if requested. You are also welcome to use our barbecue that is around the corner on our deck. You will enter from close by parking, just off the street through the purposely indescript private gate onto the cottage private deck at ground level. Step two stairs down into the cottage.
Comfortable and uniquely furnished, the cottage has two almost separate rooms, and there is a room divider that can be put across between the bedroom and the sitting/kitchenette room. The sitting area has a loveseat which becomes a twin bed and is easily pulled out, but does block access to the kitchen are for the most part. $10 extra charge for extra hot water, bed use linens/cleaning staff if using the pullout.
Unique wet room shower/bathroom, bench available upon request. There is no door on this room, but two thick shower curtains and there’s a fan, matches, and spray provided. Pretty much everyone sleeps very peacefully on our firm, yet soft organic queen bed with 100% cotton, high end sheets and bedding. Cotton sheets and blankets are freshly laundered and aired on the line. You won't find any synthetic bedding here. Pillows are traded out/sanitized for each visit, including extra pillow lining covers and throw pillow covers.
A baby or small child could sleep in a Pak-n-Play crib- just ask of needed. There is a room divider available. You might enjoy breakfast at the small table on the lovely deck in nice weather. Guests from very hot climates really enjoy just sitting on the Adirondacks in this peaceful spot.
An Eero wifi booster creates quite dependable wifi access. It’s sometimes necessary to restart the television or your computer a couple of times in order to wake up the Internet. Even though we pay for the highest speed cable, the internet company tends to shut it down when not in use, so just start your computer or the TV again a couple of times and wake it up! Sometimes it needs a real kick out of bed! A smart TV offers you viewing with our WIFI on your own Netflix or Prime, etc. accounts. We have access to Fubo and a few other complementary channels. WIFI is suitable for work, so bring your laptop and stay for the week of working vacation. (Sunday evenings are sometimes a little slow because everyone seems to be using internet in the area.) Take your lunch break with a walk to the beach or a spin on a kayak on a warm day.
Our kitchen is very usable for a little adventurous cooking even though there is no full-size stove or oven. Available are a microwave or convection/toaster oven . Please indicate if you have a preference. Many ways to cook: instant hot water pot, french press and coffee grinder or a pod style coffee maker, small NuWave oven upon request, mini fridge, hot pot available upon request, sandwich press, small and large electric fry pans, NuWave convection burner, farm sink, and well equipped dishes and utensils. You are also welcome to use our barbecue on the nearby ground level back deck or we have a small propane barbecue that you can use on the brick by your deck if you request it.
There is a gas Firepit available fot marshmallow etc. roasting upon request.
It often clears up enough for a sunset view at the beach, even on cloudy days. We are in the 'Rain Shadow of the Olympics' and have approximately 72+ more days with sunshine than the greater Seattle area. Its about 5-10 degrees warmer in the winter and 5-10 degrees cooler in summer than in greater Seattle area. Take a break from the heat here for a week or month and take advantage of weekly/monthly discounts.
Eat your breakfast on the deck in warm months and enjoy the shade of the Madrona tree over the deck on warmer days. Comfy Adirondacks create a nice spot to relax/read. Outdoor blankets provided for this area.
The kitchenette/sitting area has a comfy loveseat hide-a-bed. When it pulls out for bed use, it takes up most of the space of the sitting area kitchenette. Extra bedding for this bed is $10 extra for the stay. The darling woodstove heats the entire cottage quite sufficiently, but there is also electric heat in the bedroom area and in the bathroom. Wood and lighting materials are provided for the fireplace and can be replenished.
Take a cool refreshing dip at our private community Madrona beach and/or experienced kayakers may borrow ours if you sign a release. They are a little further down the beach than the 1.2 block walk to get there.
Sunsets are often stellar, if you take the short walk to the beach to watch, stay for at least half an hour after sundown for the best colors. If you don’t want to sit on the logs, just ask and we will provide some folding chairs for your use at the beach.
Hike short or longer trails in the nearby state parks.
We are just an hour from Seattle during light traffic times, but longer at rush hour and/or if you come on a holiday weekend- up to twice as long! It's so worth the trip, even in traffic. You will feel your blood pressure fall when you drive onto this sweet island. We are a nice half wayish stop between Sea-Tac Aiport) (55 miles) or Paine field (24 miles) and the San Juan Islands, and Vancouver Int'l (74 miles)
