Appel Haus is a wonderful spot for a romantic getaway, visiting with friends and family, or peaceful time on your own.

The house is a little gem in the woods. It overlooks the water (from a distance, but it's a beautiful view) and is part of a larger farm that includes chickens, goats, ducks, and an orchard. Overall, it is a very enchanting place, very peaceful, and extremely nice. The owners are kind and very easy to work with. We will definitely return. ##### Scott P.

Jennifer and Chris are wonderful hosts who have thought of everything to make our stay amazing. The views from the deck are off the charts!! I am usually all about going out to dinner when on vacation but the deck table is so inviting with a well appointed kitchen that we ended up eating there most of the time. Great hiking is just minutes away, close to ferry and town. Easy to get anywhere on the island you want to go! Love this place and can't wait to return! ##### Carol S.

We loved the opportunities to share the fun of gathering eggs, picking fresh vegetables, and then making a meal using them. The kitchen is outfitted with the finest appliances and equipment. There are plenty of dishes, glasses, and linens. We marveled at the woodworking throughout the house --- sturdy, honest and refined. There is a heartwarming fireplace with plenty of cut wood for late night adult conversations. The house is private providing a world of its own --- we loved seeing the little frogs and little birds in the manzanita trees, the nurse logs, the setting sun. Access to the water is easy, and we were fortunate to find orcas that came close to and under our boat! ##### Jan L. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### SARAH H.

Kitchen is well stocked to cook. Pots and pans are great. Sunsets are through the trees but did not make it any less gorgeous. Thanks again we will be back! ##### SARAH H.

We just had the most amazing time at this beautiful property. The chickens and goats and Rosegarden and food garden were such a delight to visit daily. The chickens are prolific egg layers so do not buy eggs before coming to the island. The house was immaculate and very well appointed, Jennifer could not have been more hospitable and available even though she was in Europe at the time of our stay. Quiet, beautiful views and wonderful birds in the trees. Very healing. Town is a 10 minute drive away and Bucks Bay for seafood cannot be beaten. Just a pure delight to have been able to stay here.

The house feels far removed from life’s hustle and bustle yet it’s a short drive to Moran State Park for great hiking and to EastSound for great shopping, dining, and Saturday’s Farmer’s Market.

The house is beautifully designed, beautifully appointed, and has everything we needed and more. The location is woodsy and private with stunning sunsets overlooking the Sound from the deck. We sat out there a lot. And even though we wanted to escape and enjoy the woods, the wifi worked really well, and we all needed to use it at one point or another. And I ask you, when was the last time you could stay on a beautiful island in a gorgeous house that had free-range chickens and goats on the property? We had fresh eggs daily, all of the animals were friendly. Jennifer and Chris were super welcoming and available for us if we needed them. Oh, and the hot tub!! Hot and soothing.

The setting was lovely and our 10 days there had me questioning my life choices as we left and wondering if I could somehow be adopted by Jennifer and Chris. Everything was as described - and we are cooks, so the kitchen suited us to perfection. We will be back to Orcas - and as long as they will allow us to return, we are staying at Apfel Haus. ##### Jennifer K.

Many relaxing outdoor spaces--porch with view, porch swing, hammock, fire pit--surrounded by madrone trees. Comfortable and pleasing indoor spaces with a well-appointed kitchen for cooking. Nearby farm offers a sweet garden with roses, dahlias, and vegetables for picking. Friendly chickens and ducks (fresh eggs!), majestic goats, and a lovely orchard to stroll through. The property is very quiet. Only the birds talking and the occasional muted blast of a ferry horn. Close to the village of Eastsound where most of the shops are open, and the restaurants also open for limited seating outdoors or take-out. Excellent grocery store! Restorative hiking on Turtleback Mountain. Wish I was going back this weekend! ##### Mary C. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff d.

It is an upscale yet charming property with everything you need for a true escape. Gorgeous setting and views, rustic/charming farm and orchard to explore, and a stunning house. Perfectly appointed kitchen, cozy quiet bedrooms, beautiful great room. We spent our days exploring Orcas and evenings at the fire pit, porch swing or dining outdoors overlooking the water. The property owners Jennifer and Chris were so welcoming and also gave us privacy and run of the place. Kids (5 and 9) had a blast visiting animals, collecting eggs and exploring. We have already recommended it to friends and family. Hope to return one day soon! ##### Hillary M. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anya T.
