Photos and Description of the Pender Island vacation house rental Main house: 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, sleeps 6. Guest cabin: sleeps 2 w/ bath

Gowlland Point Place is an expansive, private setting that provides incomparable views and access to a spectacular marine environment. The main house sits on over 300 feet of low-bank shoreline, with a panoramic view of the San Juan Islands, Mt. Baker and ships en route between the Pacific Ocean and nearby ports. Enjoy the seaside environment and abundant wildlife from a large wrap-around deck, or directly on one of the area’s most desirable beaches. Orca, porpoise, otter, bald eagles and deer are common sights. The view is equally enjoyable during inclement weather from fireside in the sea-view living room. An available guest cottage allows up to eight people to enjoy the property. The three-plus acre property includes a historic orchard and a forested perimeter that provides a reclusive ambiance. Neighboring Brooks Point and Gowlland Point Conservancy Areas add to the property’s natural tranquility. Member of the Pender Island Chamber of Commerce

The property is located at the southernmost point in the Gulf Islands, near the U.S. border. The San Juan Islands and Mt. Baker dominate the panoramic view, which spans from the northeast to the south. Marine, terrestrial and flying wildlife add to the geographic beauty of the islands. Eagles, otter, deer and porpoise are common sights. Orca (Killer Whales) routinely pass near the property. The area is well suited for kayaking, fishing, scuba diving, sailing and sightseeing by boat. Land based activities include biking, golf, tennis and hiking. Numerous parks are located on the Penders, two of which are a brief walk from the property. Many interesting and unique shops exist on the islands, as well as numerous art studios and a vineyard. Musical events and performing arts are common in the community. The Pender Islands Community Hall hosts a seasonal Saturday farmers' market and annual Fall Fair, along with wedding parties and other special events.

Notes: Sorry, but we are unable to allow pets or smoking. Members of our family have a severe allergic reaction to certain animals and tobacco smoke. Our no smoking, no pet policy is predicated on reasons beyond personal preference. Since life-threatening consequences can result from non-compliance, we ask that you take the policy very seriously. Please consider other vacation properties if this policy is too restrictive for you. Fire danger and water conservation are urgent concerns at this property and throughout the Gulf Islands. Please be prepared to exercise extreme caution with regard to both. Beach access is via a narrow, rustic trail. It must always be used with caution. Small children and older or less agile individuals should be assisted. A public beach access with stairs is available by walking about five minutes from the main house. Cleaning after your visit is included. There will be a charge for any uncustomary cleaning required.

Great weekend on Pender Island

Viviane Vancouver
Review Submitted: December 19, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
Communications with Richard (the owner of the house) were easy, before and after the weekend we rented the house. He provided us with a map and accurate directions to drive to the property.

The house was beautiful, very well equipped and the setting was very quiet.

I would return there and recommend this house to friends who wish to spend a week-end on the Island.

Perfect relaxing get-away in this beautiful home

Minosa Vancouver, BC, Canada
Review Submitted: September 15, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
I rented this house for a long weekend get-away with my boyfriend and my parents visiting from Sweden. We were all blown away by this beautiful place!

The house is absolutely amazing, very large, homely and thoughtfully decorated. We appreciated the fact that it was well-stocked, with everything from spices and kitchen supplies to books and board games. The kitchen and bathrooms are modern and comfortable. We made good use of the bbq and the large porch as well as the fireplace in the cosy living room.

The setting of the house is truly stunning. The view over the San Juan Islands and the ocean with Mount Baker in the background is captivating. We sat for hours just watching the seals and birds and the boats go by outside. We also greatly enjoyed exploring the beaches and shorelines around the cabin. Beautiful landscape!

The contact with Richard, the owner was very easy and pleasant. The information he and his family provided about the island and the house was above and beyond what we had expected. Everything was very well organized and professionally handled.

All in all we are very happy with our vacation and really could not have wished for anything else. I would recommend this retreat in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a relaxing get-away.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Even better than it looks!

Jklingerohleder Seattle, WA USA
Review Submitted: September 12, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We had the best time enjoying this waterfront gem. Such a sweet home, well appointed, even providing a wonderful book collection- not that we needed it with the sunny weather we enjoyed. We met so many kind islanders enthusiastic to be part of Pender's community. What a joy to be offered a glimpse!
We Kayaked, beach combed, played Frisbee golf on the local course, wrote, ate much fresh seafood sold from the fisherman's vessel, were impressed with the fully stocked grocery store and scrumptious bakery, made blackberry pies and cobbler from the August berries, and fresh plum pastry too- all fruit coming from the property. I only wish we could also come a few weeks from now to take advantage of the abundant apples nearly ripened. So much more was explored during this much too short week.

I feel so lucky and grateful to find such a dreamy hideaway right on the waterfront.

Relax

JacB Vancouver
Review Submitted: July 15, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
This was the perfect place for us. We have two very young kids and everything is at ground level, which is hard to find on Pender Island. The view is stunning, the house is lovely and we had a really good break. We saw orcas, seals, otters and of course lots of deer, they come and eat the fallen apples in the orchard behind the house. We loved the big deck, where we could sit and have an evening drink once the kids were in bed at last.

Island Tranquility Realized

Aar0n Vancouver, BC, Canada
Review Submitted: May 30, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
What a spot! A beautiful piece of land right on the water. Far enough away from everything for peace and quiet but close enough to the amenities. The house was in great condition and provides a great place to relax when not outdoors. Correspondence with the owner was clear and prompt. I highly recommend this property. While we there we had perfect weather and made great use of the deck. We had an amazing view of Mt. Baker. We saw cruise ships, seals, porpoises, eagles, geese, herons, flickers, and all the while only saw a couple of other people. I can't think of anything that would have made my vacation better.
