Water View, Impeccable Studio Cottage overlooking East Sound, Walk to Town, Close to Everything!

With stunning views of East Sound on Orcas Island, our charming studio cottage was fully updated in 2019! Just a short walk to restaurants, shopping, and Eastsound Waterfront Park, you can enjoy the sunrise from the deck, cozy sofa, or comfortable queen-size bed in this lovely 300 sq. ft. space. Perfect for a solo retreat or a couple's getaway, our cottage features all-new appliances, quartz countertops, a tiled bathroom, comfy bedding, and new flooring. Your island escape is ready for you 🏝️✨

We offer a contactless checkin with a keypad code for the front door. At the same time, as your host, I am available each day during normal business hours of 8 am- 5 pm, and 24/7 for non-life threatening emergencies.

Perched on a hillside overlooking Eastsound, our charming cottage offers the perfect balance of privacy and convenience.

🌊 Scenic Setting – Enjoy picturesque water views, tall trees, and a friendly neighborhood.
🏡 Best of Both Worlds – An “in-town” feel with a peaceful, rural atmosphere.
🚗 Convenient Location – The main road below provides easy access to town, with some traffic noise during peak seasons.

More amazing than the photos
The photos posted don’t do the place justice. The view is amazing. I was worried because it’s close to a main road (though the road means you’re two minutes from shops and food), but the trees mostly block the sound. Also the house is extraordinarily sound proof. The binder of info is helpful! One suggestion would be to leave it out so it’s easier to find.Great space and hope to return!

Great cottage in perfect location to explore Orcas Island
We loved our stay in the Eastsound cottage. It was close enough to walk into town and centrally located for exploring the island. The cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We particularly enjoyed the deck to watch beautiful moonrise.

Great Cabin for Couples Retreat
Wild Currant Cottage makes for a great home base from which to explore all the San Juan Islands has to offer. The cabin is well equipped, clean, and comfortable, with an easy walk to town and a short drive to parks, beaches, and hiking trails. The only downside is the traffic noise which is not an issue at night and not enough of an annoyance to keep us from booking again.

Beautiful stay on Orcas
We absolutely loved our stay! The cottage was clean and beautiful and easy walking distance to the main part of Eastsound. It was a great getaway while being right off the main road. We loved the space and was perfect to be able to cook, read outside, and explore Orcas. Sherri was responsive and super helpful. Thank you!

Nice, neat, small place
Very clean, comfortable, centrally located accom. Nice view of East Sound. Close to town (walkable). Good for 2 people. Gets noisy when day gets busy (cars, trucks, aircraft) but, you are close to things. Good value for $$.

Orcas
We were totally pleased with the property. Great view, great location, all amenities provided. Beware that most restaurants are closed on weekdays so you may be cooking, but the kitchen overlooks the inlet so cooking was lovely and you have everything needed to make a meal. Orcas is hands down the best San Juan Island for scenery, hiking and relaxation.
