| Suzanne, we really enjoyed our stay at your beach house on Camano Island. We had a great time and had everything we needed for a fun, comfortable week. The view & accommodations were fabulous! I wish we could have spent more time just hanging out, but 3 of the 4 of us had never been to the Seattle area before, so we tried to see as much as we could in the short time we had. Hopefully, we can make the trip again and will be able to kick back and really get into the beach lifestyle. Thanks, Suzanne, for making our stay so comfortable and worry-free, surrounded by fantastic scenery! |

Had a wonderful time on Camano. This property was clean and one of the best appointed rentals I have ever stayed in.
There was nothing that we wished we had and wasn't there. The view was beautiful and we spent two nights sitting around the firepit on the waterfront.
We've decided to make this an annual event with our friends.
Thanks for a wonderful time! |

| Thanks to you Suzanne for making our long weekend stay at your very beautiful and comfortable Camano Island cabin so wonderful! Just relaxing on the deck, viewing the spectacular water view, seeing the resident eagles soar and search for food, walking the beach and stroll down the quaint quiet road, Bar-B-Q'ed dinners on the deck with fresh Alaskan salmon just flown in and purchased at Brindle's, getting a restful night's sleep in the luxurious comfortable King bed, and exploring the Island were just what we needed. Thank you so much! |

| My daughters and I stayed at this lovely home in February 09, and were absolutely thrilled it. We take mini-vacations often, and have never stayed anywhere so well equipped! The house is even better than the advertisements. We can hardly wait to stay again. |

| We have stayed at this spacious, comfortable and beautiful home twice and would recommend it to any one. The view from the living and dining rooms is dramatic! It has everything you could ever need in the kitchen, and the owner pays attention to every detail from bedding to games to Wi-Fi access. She truly makes the extra effort to make your stay the best possible. |

| We had an out of town guest that we wanted to take somewhere special that none of us had been to. This house was just what we were all needing! A comfortable space with a spectacular view, long walks on the beach. I can not say enough good things about it and Suzanne was wonderful, too. I'm sure we will be back again and again. |

Auntie & nieces came for celebration of our March birthdays. We hope this will be a new tradition for us to enjoy every year together. Lots of laughs, lots of food and...a little wine! A great place to get away and share family and life stories with each other. What is said at the beach house stays at the beach house. The memories will last forever.

With fabric, thread, and machines in tow. We arrived at this beach house ready to sew. The theme for the weekend: "Away from It All". No phones, no husbands, no trips to the mall. We spoke of our families as we quilted away. The water and view were the highlights of our day. As we come to the end of retreat number 5. We're refreshed, renewed, and most certainly revived. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

It was a relaxing fun stay. The atmosphere & environment were so different from "a beach house" in Hawaii, yet the experience was great. The house was all we needed & could have wanted. Thank You (Mahalo).

Hello Suzanne-long overdue contact thanking you for providing us a most wonderful, peaceful and enchanted place to stay while we attempted to absorb a death in the family. We brought our 4 year old lab Mugsy who befriended ALL of the neighborhood dogs and frolicked with them on the beach chasing sticks. The house was so welcoming, and we felt like we were in the home of a family member. You left NOTHING to be desired, providing everything we could possibly need while there. Even flour! We somehow managed to be there on the coldest, rainiest and windiest few days in July in 50 years, but we were enveloped with warmth and comfort. Watcing the world go by, no matter the weather, provided us with an unforgettable experience. We plan to come again soon! Thank you.

Suzanne, I just wanted to tell you what a wonderful time we had this weekend at the cabin(s). We appreciate how you worked things so that we were able to have a place to stay both Friday and Saturday.
It did our hearts and souls such good to be in a peaceful place and we have started our healing process.
My parents joined us Saturday and they really loved the beach house and they may be contacting you to rent it themselves one day.
Thanks again for everything and we hope to rent from you in the future.
Bright Blessings

As the week we spent in your house on Camano Island came to an end, everyone in our family was thinking the same thought: when can we come back? The house has everything we could possibly want in a vacation getaway. It's located on a lovely and interesting beach with a beautiful view (it was thrilling to spot Mt. Rainier on the clear days). Our girls loved exploring the tide flats at low tide and swimming when the tide came in. They also had fun watching the bald eagles hunting over the tide flats at low tide and swimming when the tide came in. They also had fun watching the balk eagles hunting over the tide flats and in the fields north of the house.
We all appreciated how cozy and comfortable your house is. I can see how it would make a wonderful getaway any time of year (I picture curling up with a good book next to the wood stove during the winter months). We also very much appreciated having conveniences such as a dishwasher and washer & dryer. Finally, the location, within a few minutes of Camano Plaza, was an added bonus. Your home is a real treasure. Thank you for making it available to us. |

| This week has flown by so quickly! Thanks again for your home last weekend on Camano. We all had a wonderful time. Walks along the beach, flying kites, small hikes around the island, cozy fires, etc. Your home is really great. We may very well call you again sometime and your location is the best! |

This well-stocked and immaculately-kept beachfront home exceeded our expectations in every way. We were looking for a quiet and comfortable getaway for a four-day weekend, and this home delivered it.
Mornings we would watch the sun come up and paint the scene out the front windows over the water - always beautiful and different, whatever the weather (ususally nice). The dining room, with its warm teak furniture encouraged us to linger with morning coffee and breakfast to read, talk and enjoy the beautiful view.
We weren't ready for the kitchen: everything we could want or need was there, nicely laid out (with photos on the inside of cupboard doors to show you quickly what was inside, and where to return it when you were done with it). After a day or so, it felt comfortable and easy to work in. We ate very well during our stay! (If you're coming to stay here, be sure to stop for groceries on your way in at the incredibly well-stocked Camano Market just a couple of miles up the road - if they moved the store to Redmond, we'd shop there regularly!)
Out and about during the day - lots to see and do hereabouts. We enjoyed the State Park, among other things.
Evenings we enjoyed the living room with its individual-dimmer-controlled lights - very romantic. The teak dining table, with the crystal chandelier over it, glowed. We watched the sun go down, then watched a couple of DVD movies we brought with us, or quietly read (we're quiet people).
We brought our Standard Poodle, Archy, along with us. After a quick inspection of the house, he found the warm, sunny spots in the living room and curled up to enjoy them. The back yard was nicely fenced, so he was able to go outside without bothering anyone nearby.
We came away with a great sense of peace and renewal. The relative isolation of this private community with its slow pace and friendly faces was a world away from Redmond - although close enough that we didn't have to spend a long time driving just to get there. Inside this lovely home the illusion of being on a remote island was nearly complete and wonderful. Stepping out the door brought the cool, clean smell from the water - paradise enough!
We recommend this beachfront dream highly! We plan to return - it fit us just right, and the owner was a pleasure to deal with.

This home is AMAZING! With the beach just
footsteps away and huge windows facing the water,
the view is GREAT! The pictures shown are just like
the home when you walk in and it's very roomy.
This homeowner is very communicative and so nice.
Thank you for a great experience and I HIGHLY
recommend this home to whomever inquires.
Thank again -Amy |
