Lovely Property and Cottage
The property was absolutely beautiful it was really wonderful to explore the bay in the kayaks that are provided. We ran into the folks that own the property and they were lovely as well, very friendly. The only negative is that the wifi did not work consistently, but that was alright as we were happy to have an unplugged retreat. Looking forward to staying here again!

Excellent location
Great location. Fully equipped kitchen, and comfy beds. The Sat TV does not work but the whole point of our getaway was to get away and reconnect with family, so this does not detract from my view of the stay

House is aged but comfortable
We loved the peacefulness of the location and the view of the water from the house. Being able to access the peninsula via the wood steps was a plus. And, the location on the island was perfect due to vicinity to Obstruction State Park and Moran State park.

Great place, we'd stay again.
Quiet home at the end of the road on the water, what a view. The whole interior appears to have been gutted and remodeled. They did a fantastic job.

Lovely!
We loved being by the water facing the sun rise, beautiful view! Place was clean and well located. If you’re using one of the single bed mattress, we recommend putting it directly on the floor and not using the base it’s on because it sinks in the middle.

Review of Stay at Obstruction PAss Cottage
We enjoyed the comfort of the home. The home was well equipped for all we needed. The view was wonderful. The location was a distance from most places we wished to visit. We enjoyed the quietness along with the occasional moos from the cows next door.

Peaceful Location
This cabin faces East with a very nice view. Short walk to the water and rocky beach. Very quiet area on family owned land. We had cows as our neighbors and the local family were very nice people. The cabin interior is nice and had all the basics as a two bedroom house. Laundry room also. There’s a good sized gated deck off the front.

Breathtaking views and so peaceful!
A friend and I stayed at this cottage for a girl's weekend. It was AWESOME! The views are spectacular, there is a huge herd of deer that like to visit, the peninsula connected to the property has now become my new "happy place." As for the cottage itself, it was clean, comfortable, had everything we needed and the beds were really comfortable! I'd definitely go back and recommend it to anyone looking for a little place to get away from it all.

Great property, amazing views, lovely private beach and lookout
Really enjoyed our stay. The grass yard in front of the property allowed us to throw a frisbee around. The picnic gazebo was great (although the weather prevented us from using it). The private beach was lovely. Just to the left of the beach was a small trail that let you climb/hike onto an overlook above the water where you were surrounded by water for 260 degrees! (VERY small hike, maybe 200 yards). The house was cozy and comfortable. The only thing missing from making this the perfect get away would have been a hottub on the desk, but apart from that we had a really lovely stay.

Beautiful, but frustrating
The location was lovely, the home very well supplied. The issue for us was the internet only worked for one day, Vacassa and VRBO could not do anything to remedy. We discovered the TMobile plan had reached their data limit each month. Folks, know this as there is no cell service there, thus, wi fi calling was what we depended on...it is too bad such a lovely place, that charges premium rates, is cutting corners on renters ability to communicate. Don't advertise internet service if it is only available at certain times.

Beautiful, quiet, and tranquil
Super sweet views of the water, islands, & sky. Very nice private beach, and peaceful setting. The kitchen is well equipped. Bed was comfortable, couch and chairs were comfortable. The code to the door didn’t work, and after trying it numerous times, we texted Vacasa and they responded with a different code for the lock box which got us in with a key. The light above the stove, under the microwave was burned out, so cooking was dimly lit. I’m sure they will replace the bulb tho. The coffee grinder didn’t work, so we needed to drive to the island market to grind our beans in the morning. I’m guessing they’ll buy a new one soon, or just bring ground coffee. The pots & pans and dishes were great for cooking, and eating as we liked to stay in, especially the day it rained. We will come back, as this is a sweet place to stay!

Mediocre house with amazing views
Cons- house looks clean on the surface but there’s a lot of dust and dirt. Had to wipe crumbs and dust off the counters and tables. Dirty shower curtain and toilet. Dead bugs in the windows, and many live ones we killed including a huge spider. Dated and stained furniture. No WiFi, no AC. Issues getting cable to work. Outdoor chairs covered in cobwebs. Pros- The view of the beach from the house is amazing. In a nice quiet neighborhood, 20 minutes outside of town. Decent size house fully stocked with the essentials.

Excellent place to see Rosario Strait
The house/cabin is sunny and quite comfortable. Great location, on a farm property which has its own private beach (a short walk down the hill slope). The kitchen, living room, and deck all have a great view of the water - weather ranged from crystal-clear, to misty and mysterious during our stay. Mt. Baker is visible from the front lawn (unfortunately not from the house itself due to some trees). The owners were kind enough to let us use their two kayaks, and we spent many happy hours floating around the bay looking at fish, jellyfish, and a magnificent bald eagle which flew overhead and rested in a big pine tree! A pair of deer browsed their way across the back lawn during our last evening.
