Beach house holiday rentals in Birch Bay

We had a pleasant stay and the views were just as pictured :)

If you’re down for something simple but not full-on primitive, this place is delightful. The location is divine (right on the water) and Jackie is a great host. Now if you’re looking for something modern, this might not be for you — but for everyone else, I can’t imagine not loving this little tiny home!

Fantastic stay and delivered the solitude in nature that I was looking for. It was a great way to experience the San Juans. The view was stunning, the access to the beach was stellar, and one of the best ways to spend a few days relaxing. The loaner vehicle was perfect to get us from dock to house. Reminder, for anyone looking to book this airBNB, please be mindful of what you pack and bring as there is no store to quickly run to if you forgot something. Also, you need to pack out your recyclables & non-compostables. Overall, would stay again and have already recommended it to others as an Eco-friendly vacation destination.

We loved our stay at Lindsey's place! The location on the lake is stunning and so peaceful. We barbecued on the porch and had campfires every night. Memorial Day weekend the lake was cold but we still enjoyed kayaks and paddleboards. Perfect way to disconnect from the world and reconnect with nature.

Nigel's place was beautiful, with lovely views and a great yard for relaxing in. The neighborhood is peaceful and just a few minutes to Friday Harbor. Everything inside is comfortable and has many nice touches. Nigel was very responsive and accommodating when we had a last minute change. Our family would definitely recommend Nigel's and hope to stay again!

Wow, what an incredible property!! We had a wonderful stay and very much enjoyed the well-stocked kitchen, expansive deck, beautiful grounds, and private beach. It was such a peaceful place to spend a few days, and we hope to return. We were three families with three small children, and it was a perfect place for them to run around. Thank you Don and Kathy for opening your home up to us.

The house has lots of room and beautiful views. We spent 2 days exploring local bike trails and enjoying the views from the deck. We enjoyed cooking in the well-stocked kitchen. Not only was the house ready before check-in time, but she left a welcome bottle of wine.

We had our second family reunion with all the kids coming home from college. We stayed at Anika’s wonderful home on Orcas Island and couldn’t be happier with the house, Anika’s attention to detail, cleanliness and Anika’s excellent and prompt communication. This house has a magic that is relaxing, fun, comfortable and reliable. We will be back in August 2025 for a week!

We really enjoyed our vacation at Michele’s! It was the perfect spot for us with kiddos. The back yard was lovely and we enjoyed every afternoon/evening out there in the beautiful weather. It was fun to see the baby geese and otters in the canal as well. We enjoyed how close it was to the beach! We would absolutely stay here again.

William’s house was perfect for our family of three. It was so nice to have our dog with us, we appreciated this option for pets, especially with a fenced in yard and deck. The views were truly spectacular, location was ideal, and very close to the beach. The whole town was perfect to bike around, we brought our E bikes and loved that we could store them in the garage. My son loved the arcade and gym and my husband and I loved the fully stocked house. It was easy to cook and grill and relax. William’s house even had comfy beds, which is a huge win when renting. We would love to come back again.

The home was lovely and Otto was a great host. It was very clean and has a beautiful deck with easy access to be beach area. My children loved running on the beach while I enjoyed the views

This was an excellent stay for my fiance and I. Kim's house was very clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a long-term stay. The kitchen was very well stocked, with a brand new dishwasher and oven. The bedrooms were very cozy, with extremely comfortable mattresses and sheets. The bathroom was also very clean, with lots of storage space for toiletries and things. The neighborhood was something special, too. its a gated community with a very peaceful feel to it. Several walkable parks, one of which we went to nearly every day we were there to watch the sunset over the bay. The people here are friendly and welcoming. Finally, the property manager, Shirley, was a real gem. She was so thoughtful, responsive, and genuinely kind to us during our stay. She works hard to make sure the yard is kept up with, issues are resolved, and overall cares for the comfort of the guests. This is a 5 star Abnb that I wish I could have stayed at for longer. Dont hesitate to book!

We had such a lovely and relaxing We had such a lovely time at Charles and Kristy’s, exactly what we needed for a getaway from city life for a few days! The house had everything we needed to feel right at home, and oh the views!! When not enjoying the serenity of the home and its amenities, there was plenty to do in the charming downtown area of Friday Harbor and all throughout the island. Us humans and our pup loved every moment of our stay!

We were in town for our boy’s state baseball tournament but we will be back to Bellingham just for this place. This house was incredibly beautiful and the view is second to none! We saw bald eagles right off the back deck and sailboats on the bay. What a spot to rest! The hosts were great and very accommodating. We read the reviews about the train noise so we were aware going in. We actually enjoyed watching them go by from the back deck and the noise was noticeable, but didn’t bother us at all. They have a photo album of the construction process that they did as a family and it’s amazing to see what they went through to build this beautiful home. I’m a carpenter by trade so I could really appreciate the craftsmanship of this home. My wife’s favorite artist is Andrew Wyeth and she was thrilled that they had 2 of his painting in the house. Everything we needed, they had and we look forward to coming back!

What a beautiful place!! We will be back and spend more time next time we come to the PNW!!

Absolutely lovely stay at Linda and Don’s beach home in Birch Bay! It was so well stocked and provisioned and Linda and Don were incredibly friendly and responsive. They also had little handmade items around which they offered for us to take as gifts and souvenirs which were so cute and thoughtful! We had an amazing time and would absolutely stay again :)

Bay #1 house was super clean and well organized. The location is perfect for a stay on Lopez Island because it is only a few minutes drive from the village and it’s also a reasonable distance to walk. The living room and porch have amazing views of the sunset across Fisherman Bay. The house is cozy and warm. Carole let us know all of the information we needed for a great stay!

We had such a lovely stay. The home is very charming and fully equipped with everything you need to be able to stay in on a rainy day. We loved the location, as it’s right next to a super cute town that has a beach, lots of restaurants and shops and the OI market. Highly recommend this place!

Great place to stay in the middle of the village. Convenient walk for groceries and restaurants. Very quiet at night. Well lit loft with skylight for star gazing. Linnea was proactive in ensuring we had everything we needed for our week-long stay.

Great location/neighbourhood and place was really well equipped. Attentive host and excellent value - will definitely be back if we're in Vancouver.

The place is pretty quite, large and clean. Had a bit trouble finding the place at the beginning since we arrived pretty late, should be easy to find when it is not dark. Ryan is very responsive and easy to communicate. The island is very beautiful, would definitely come back again next time on the island.

A great getaway spot with lovely east facing backyard. Quiet community. About 20 minute drive to get groceries, so it’s a great place to just hunker down.

Ideal spot for our stay, close to eating places, grocery store, laundry. Liked Kitsilano and Granville Island, easy to get around on foot and water buses

There isn't much to say here other than simply stunning. Ashley & Brittany have created a beautiful sanctuary perfect for a weekend getaway on Lummi Island, a lovely and peaceful location. The place is simply perfect, functional, spacious, ideal balance of high touch and at-home-feel finishes. One standout experience for both of us was watching the birds feeding during low tide, tons of eagles, herons, and other interesting birds. 10/5 stars.
