Photos and Description of the Orcas vacation estate rental
Estate, 6 Bedrooms + Loft, 4 Baths, (Sleeps 15)

This 14 acre secluded estate on the top of Scott Hill on Orcas Island is truly an oasis. It has over 180 degrees of magnificent marine and mountain views. Enjoy the over 5,500 feet of living space and the many luxury amenities like our 70-foot lap pool, complete exercise room, and hot tubs-- all with fantastic views. Explore our woods, pick fresh fruits, herbs, and greens in our organic garden, start a campfire and enjoy the westerly views, or just pick your favorite spot to relax. Listen to the birds sing while you relax in the hammock next to the ponds set in a peaceful opening in the Douglas fir forests. Then sit back, at the end of the day, with a drink and your friends and watch the sun set over the Gulf Islands.

As you enter the home you will be immediately drawn to the expansive ocean views from the many windows of the living, dining, and kitchen areas. The main living area has a large screen TV; a dining table that seats 12+ people with extensions; a family room; and spacious kitchen with all dishes and utensils needed to cook a gourmet meal. These areas, most bedrooms, the master bathroom, and the sitting area all have vaulted beamed ceilings, stone counters, elegant built-in cabinets, and custom dining tables. The 3 bedrooms (all with queen beds) are in the other end of the house with two bathrooms, a laundry room, and a sitting room with two stained glass windows and space for the convertible beds. The numerous decks add space to enjoy the peaceful views. The hot tub is on the lower level right outside the pool and exercise room. Both the hot tub and the outside shower have marvelous views to the south and west.

A special feature of Orcas Oasis includes a detached guest house which is separated by a walkway bridge from the main house making this ideal for the family who would love their own private space but would still like to vacation with friends & relatives. It has 1 bathroom and 3 bedrooms (two with queen beds and one with double bed) plus a loft with twin beds. It also has a full kitchen, a dining table that seats 8, and a cozy living area with flat screen TV and DVD. It also has its own deck with gas grill, stone patio for outside dining, and the recently added hot tub all nestled in the Douglas Fir forest.

The lower level contains a 70-foot indoor lap pool, a 3/4 bath, pool table area with wet bar and refrigerator, and a fully-equipped exercise room. Also available is a picnic area with a fire ring so you can enjoy a campfire with s'mores and beautiful sunsets.

Orcas Oasis also has a lovely meadow with wildflowers, space to run and explore, or play a game of horseshoes or croquet. There are two ponds where you can relax in the hammock and enjoy the sound of the birds splashing in the water. A large garden often has delicious greens, ripe strawberries, herbs fresh for the picking and always has fantastic westerly views.

About The Owner

Bob & Barb moved from Minnesota to be close to the ocean and to sail. We bought a great 40ft racing sailboat and spent much of the last 13 years in competitive racing in the Pacific NW. Before moving we went shopping for land on Orcas and purchased 16 acres on the top of Scott Hill in the Victorian Valley. We built a custom home and guest home designed by renowned local Architect Roy Lundgren.

The Owner purchased this estate in 1998
Why The Owner chose Orcas

We built on the Scott Hill location due to its fantastic marine views to the SE, South, West ans NW. We also never tire of the year-round great sunsets. We built on Orcas Island because of its location -- on the water and close enough to the mountains for convenient skiing without living in the snow. We also love the weather. Orcas has short winters without much snow, cherry blossoms in February and March, sunny summers, and generally moderate temperatures.

What makes this estate unique

Privacy with expansive marine and mountain views, bird songs in a peaceful setting, camp fires in the woods, relaxing in the hot tub, swimming in the indoor 70-foot lap pool, and exercise facilities so you don't feel too decadent enjoying all the other amenities.

Lacking Privacy

  • 3 of 5
  • Submitted: May 30, 2013
  • Stayed: May 2013
The house is very comfortable and well appointed. The pool and hot tub are warm and inviting. The view is exceptional. However, the owners were ever present. Whereas another reviewer felt well taken care of by the owner who 'stopped by several times', we felt we had someone watching over us, checking to make sure we didn't do anything wrong. As a group of 50-60-something women celebrating a birthday, we all wished for more privacy. It is important to note that the owners do live on site, within yards of the main house. To be clear, the house/view are certainly 5 star. But the all too present owners make this a 3 star review.
Owner's Response: As the Orcas Oasis web site and the VRBO description say the owners live on site but the place is arranged so that most the time you don't see them. Upon arrival the owners orient the guests on how to operate the electric pool cover, dehumidifier, hot tub controls, electronic lighting, and other systems. Additionally, there are ongoing maintenance activities that any facility of this scope require such as lawn maintenance, pool and spa water quality monitoring, and gardening. During the day-time hours the renter may see the owners tending to these activities.

The owners have found that most guests appreciate having them available to answer their questions. It is understandable that not everyone appreciates the same thing. If a potential renter thinks they might feel uncomfortable with the owners or their representative on site, they are encouraged to search for a rental more suitable to their needs.

Our stay was the first girls retreat long weekend for our large family and Orcas Oasis was the perfect location for us. We chose Orcas for the connection with the island where our parents spent the first years of their marriage. We stayed in both the main house and guest house. Barb was more than attentive - checking in on us several times every day to make sure our needs were being met. The homes are well appointed and beautifully decorated. The wood floors, exposed beam ceilings and beautiful cabinetry made me feel like the main house was an extension of the woods surrounding it. Having the two kitchens helped our large group be able to cook all the different dishes at once. We enjoyed the hot tubs, lap pool and spacious areas to lounge indoors and out. An unforgettable location for sure and we hope to be back.

Luxurious home with breathtaking views

  • Submitted: May 17, 2013

Booking a rental house without having the chance to see what the property is like ahead of time always feels a bit risky. With Orcas Oasis, though, you can put those fears to rest. Situated at the top of a hill overlooking West Sound, the spacious main house offers top-quality finishes, comfortable living spaces, expansive views, and every modern convenience you could ask for. Special features include an indoor lap pool, exercise and weight room, a hot tub, and hundreds of feet of decking from which you can watch some of the most beautiful sunrises or sunsets you will ever see.

The property also includes a large open space behind the house which is terrific for kids or pets to run around in. Larger groups will find that the layout includes several different types of living space, both inside and out, so those wanting some time away from the main group can find some solitude. Barb and Bob have created an oasis on Orcas Island that we hope to be able to revisit again and again.

For our annual weekend of 5 couples, we look for a 5 bedroom view location that is drive-able from our Seattle and surrounding areas. Orcas Oasis fulfilled our needs with accommodations that were beautiful, spacious, comfortable and in the midst of scenic Northwest landscapes. From this location, we were able to drive to Mt. Constitution - a viewpoint where we could see many San Juan Islands, water passages, Canada, northern Washington, and many wildlife up close. The island towns and roads also provided for bike trips, window shopping, marine walking, picnicking, nature walking and photography.
The house was fitting for our Saturday night Cook-Off and gave way to quiet reading times, leisurely lap swimming, hot-tubbing, pool table matches and exercising at our own pace in the gym. We spent much time in the open areas outside and inside the big house in good conversation within our big group during our 4-day weekend.
The owners were thoroughly helpful pre-visit, minor repairs and excursion advice during our visit, and gave us a warm send-off at the end. The owners do a great service to include travelers to share their spacious and scenic Northwest property.
We would recommend Orcas Oasis to nature-loving travelers who are seeking a location with beautiful views of natural settings.
