Bayview Beach Cottage

The Space

The Bayview Beach Cottage is a wonderful, comfortable home. Large space with large deck and yard located across the street from Bayview State Park. An hour from the Cascade Mountains, and only minutes from the tulip fields and the ferry to the San Juan Islands. Local hiking, biking, and shopping.

Guest Access

Private home, gardens and deck. All main floor living without an elevator or steps. Quiet area. The home has many amenities included. We have 4 bicycles and 2 kayaks. We are located on the Padilla Bay trail which is great for biking, walking or running.

Interaction with Guests

The home is completely private, the caretakers are 2 doors down if you need anything.

The Neighborhood

Our house is located in a very quiet neighborhood where everyone walks their dogs and walks the trails. The view is stunning. View of San Juan Islands and Kitesurfers at times. Take the Kayaks and explore the waterways next to the trail or just Padilla Bay. Whether you are looking for a quiet relaxing get away from the city or you simply want to get back to nature, our home offers a unique sanctuary with picturesque views.
