HISTORIC WATERVIEW VACATION RENTAL HOME ON ORCAS ISLAND NEAR BUCK BAY.

Surrounded by ten pastoral acres, beautiful Cherry Hill on Orcas Island has access to a community beach. It also has a private secluded pond, flower-filled gardens, views of the water, and is a bird watcher’s paradise (binoculars and guidebook included.). You will feel immediately welcome when you arrive and we think you might just experience the best vacation, ever.

This historic Orcas Island property is one of the first homesteads in San Juan County and it’s been lovingly preserved for you to use today. Comfortable and quiet, Cherry Hill will remind you of simpler times. The TV is for enjoying the owner’s collection of movies only, but WIFI is provided for staying in touch with today.

Cherry Hill is in the Olga area, approximately 40 minutes from the Orcas ferry landing. The Artworks and Café Olga are within a half mile of the home and only a mile from Olga market and public dock.

    This property is a spectacular piece of land. If you truly want to get away from it all, this is the spot. Beautiful, comfortable, great views. You can walk down to the water easily, and the garden is just delightful. My family enjoyed this vacation so much.
