Waterfront vacation rentals in Elwha River

We loved our stay at Christine’s “suite view!” It does have a gorgeous view & very peaceful setting. The place itself is cute & clean with everything you need. We used it as a home base for some local adventures. But honestly i think what we enjoyed most, was coming back in the afternoon to relax in the sunny & private yard. It was very peaceful & serene, with a gorgeous view of the water. I highly recommend Christine’s place & would happily return in the future!

We really enjoyed our stay at Ginny and Gary’s lake house. It was immaculately clean, the kitchen was well stocked, and it had a lovely view of the lake. It was a great launching point to go see the Skagit Valley tulip festival!

This was such a beautiful stay! the views are truly magical here. very peaceful area, with lots of deer and wildlife to see. the house was perfect as well, you could tell a lot of time and effort was put into curating this space. would definitely stay here again! thank you so much!

Family was visiting for a week of rest and relaxation and this space delivered in every way! Amazing location with it being just a half block away from Alki beach and early morning walks to finding a local spot to sit down and have a coffee and pastry. As this is the second time family has spent here that speaks volumes to how comfortable the hosts have made it for guests. I know that this space will be filled with my family whenever they come and visit in the future.

This place was fantastic. It was so hard to leave, even after three nights. The lodging decor is cozy, very comfortable with lots of nice seating options and has all that you need. Enjoyed making meals in the ample kitchen (oil & a few seasonings) and watching the wind and water through the wall-to-wall windows. For those with mobility concerns, there are five gradual gravel steps down to your entry door (it's on the lowest floor of an occupied 3-story home) and a short gradual gravel slope down the driveway and along side of house to get down to the very private lower section of the property. Your lower water-view yard is very private with a picnic table for a peaceful outdoor lunch with a view. Loved Betsy's tea and coffee options, the banana muffins and homemade bread were delightful. Quiet lodging with minimal walking sounds from above. Open communication was prompt and check-in/out was easy. I can't wait to return with my sweetie. This was an AirBnB favorite, for sure.

Thanks to Jonathan and his family for sharing this cozy little nook for my family and I. It was everything we needed to crash out after visiting with extended family nearby.

Loved your place & the view! Thank you for being so responsive!!

We so enjoyed our time! The view was beautiful and we spent hours at the waterside. We even saw two otters playing. We also loved all the beautiful art! We had such a relaxing time.

We had a great stay! The house was beautiful, clean and was in a great location!

words can’t describe how amazing this home is! the view of the olympics and beach access made our vacation truly special! the home was clean, spacious and had everything we needed, including plenty of beach towels, a few toys for the kiddos, books and even binoculars! we will absolutely be back!

We loved our stay. Very relaxing. Beautiful view. Right on the water. Clean. Peaceful. There was a bottle of wine and coffee provided which was a nice touch. Hot tub was a good temperature, jets weren’t that strong. Only one small bathroom located on top floor but it is clean and functional. Small spiral stair case to get downstairs to one of the main bedrooms might be difficult for people with mobility issues. I recently had a knee surgery so chose to take the upstairs room which was smaller and a smaller bed. There are also some stairs to get to the house from the street. Overall, a wonderful short stay and would definitely stay again.

Amazing waterfront house. Waking up and looking out the windows at the Hood Canal was magical. A seal stopped by every morning and would hang out right in front on the place. Great location to easily get up and down the 101. We felt at home and would definitely stay there again.

Jennifer was extremely responsive and went out of her way to ensure a memorable stay! We visited for a family celebration and she allowed us to ship items to the home beforehand and ensured they were stored safely. After the first day, we noticed a few minor issues—a bathroom door was coming off the hinges and we couldn’t find the kayaks advertised. She promptly addressed both issues and more, dropping off a brand new set of kayaks, fixing the door and then replaced the coffee maker, which we didn’t mention, but she knew it wasn’t working and she swapped it out without asking. The home was wonderfully appointed with quality linens, high end appliances and surrounded by water with quick access to Fay Baybridge park with rocky beach access. I highly recommend!!!

This house measured up to all our expectations! Perfect for two couples who want some separation with a king size bed in one of the downstairs bedrooms. The view was soul soothing. Eagles, deer…even a couple of otters. And then there is Mt Baker in the distance. Can’t be beat. Clean, comfortable. Highly recommend!

We had a family gathering for 10 people. The house was warm and friendly and easily accommodated all of us. There were 3 children, 11 to 15. They played badmitten and ran around the 7 acre tract and spent hours at the private beach. San Juan island is one of the most beautiful places on the west coast and this place truly enhanced our visit, I can't say enough good things and highly recommend staying there.

The house had great accommodations and it being right on the water was absolutely perfect. It was so peaceful and serene, wish we could have stayed longer.

A wonderful option right in the heart of town. Couldn’t be easier to find. Unit looks newly renovated and is spotless. We found parking easily within a block or two, if not right out front.

The place was very spacious and perfect for our month stay. Christina was very kind and answered all the questions I had and responded quickly. We will stay here again for sure in the future.

My wife and I had a phenomenal stay at this Airbnb. Nestled in the city's heart, it provided a stunning view of the iconic Empress Hotel. The apartment was comfortably furnished, feeling like a second home. The outdoor patio was a unique highlight. Surrounded by trees, it served as a peaceful oasis amid the urban bustle. The pool and hot tub access added a layer of luxury, perfect for relaxation after city exploration. Our hosts were attentive, ensuring our comfort at every step. This Airbnb is a splendid choice for couples seeking a luxurious city stay. Eagerly awaiting our return visit!

I loved this place! It was spotless and felt serene as soon as I walked in. I don’t think I ever heard a single neighbor, and the view was beautiful… I felt right at home. It was just what I needed for a solo getaway. Thanks Jonathan for the great communication and for providing such an awesome place!

This is an amazing view. All you need condo setup. Beautiful place. Easy access to bremerton and freeway north.

What an incredibly lovely place to stay on a lake. Beautiful views! So many cool details within the cabin. Has everything you need! Super cozy and relaxing! Will definitely stay again!

We had an incredible stay at this stunning property perched on the ocean in Shirley, BC! The views of the Olympic Mountains from the premium hot tub were nothing short of breathtaking, especially when we spotted humpback whales at dusk on our first night—pure magic! The property itself at moments may feel more like a swanky international hotel with its backlit onyx kitchen and luxurious rain shower yet nestled in the rustic beauty of the coast. Our host, Robert, was incredibly kind and attentive, immediately offering his charging station for our car—a real relief. Highly recommend this place for an exceptional, premium coastal retreat close to Victoria!

It was great staying with Marlyn and Timm. I'll definitely be back to enjoy their beautiful location again! They were very hospitable hosts and made me feel right at home. Thank you!
