Birding, kayaking, swim. Bring the family for a staycation or work with high speed WiFi with a beautiful view. Peaceful. Tranquil. Breathtaking views await you at Similk Bay Beach House! An Easy 75 min. drive from Seattle (no ferry needed!) Located right on the water & just a few steps down to enjoy beach exploration or kayaking the bay (bring your own). Swinomish Golf Course is WALKING DISTANCE from the house. Deception Pass for hiking. Anacortes & LaConner mere minutes. Or tiptoe through the Skagit Valley tulips! You and your guests can enjoy the entire cottage. If anyone has mobility issues, no worries as there are no stairs needed to enter the home and move about the living space; open kitchen to dining room (seats 8) and living room, plus private queen bedroom and semi-private bedroom with king bed. You will need to maneuver stairs to enjoy the beach and upstairs private ensuite, but the view is breathtaking on the covered porch which requires NO STAIR USE. All hardwoods throughout. Bedroom layout: Main level has a private queen bedroom and off the back of the house is a room that is semi private with a privacy curtain and fits a king bed. You enter this back room to access the stairs to the private master ensuite. The upstairs suite is private with a barn style door. The back bedroom and primary suite is excellent for families with children or another couple. Couch can be used to sleep 1-2 people but does not turn into a bed. We have extra bedding if needed. Wonderful beach feel cottage. You'll be wishing you had more time to sit back and relax, to take in the sounds of the lapping water or sitting back to watch the heron, eagles, osprey, migratory winter birds, seagulls, seals and other wildlife that call this bay home. ## Property amenities ### Beach -

We celebrated my mothers birthday here and it was easy for her to move about the main level and onto the patio with her walker. The kitchen is very well stocked with every cooking gadget you could need. It was so nice to sit on the patio and just watch the water, birds and otters. We also enjoyed walking the beach during low tide and seeing all the sea life. We will definitely be staying here again! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/61e0d604-a482-4cce-8cd5-b25ac2249482-1760117178793.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/12de77cb-029d-4b2c-a1be-bdaa06db812a-1760117220185.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Leana M Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jon A.

Sep 11, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beware of Unjustified Charges and Frustration: A Disappointing VRBO Experience I recently had the unfortunate experience of staying at a VRBO house for two nights, and I feel compelled to share my negative review. Our stay began on a promising note, with us being quiet, respectful guests who adhered to all of the cleaning requirements outlined by the host. However, what followed has left me extremely frustrated and disappointed. The crux of the issue revolves around the host's unwarranted attempt to charge us an additional $720 after our stay. The reason? They claimed that we had two additional guests staying with us who were coming and going all weekend. This assertion is not only baseless but completely false. We had my in-laws over for a coffee during our stay, which lasted less than two hours. They certainly did not stay overnight or occupy any bedrooms. The host's blatant attempt to charge us for non-existent guests feels like nothing short of an attempt to take advantage of us financially. It's disheartening to think that a host would resort to such tactics to squeeze more money out of their guests. As a result of this unjustified charge, I am now forced to dispute the charges with VRBO, which is adding unnecessary stress and consuming valuable time. This entire experience has been nothing but a headache, and I would strongly advise anyone considering staying at this property to think twice and explore other options. Save yourself the trouble and frustration – do not stay here! ##### Lindsay S. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mike S.

The home is comfortable. The kitchen was truly well stocked. Which I really appreciated. I loved the thoughtful details of having a multipurpose charging brick that we could easily plug our cords into, upgraded towels, plenty of seating inside and out, the heat lamp over the outdoor dining, and everything was good quality and in excellent shape. The instructions were clear and good communication when we had questions. I would have appreciated an 11 am check out so we could have enjoyed one more cup of coffee on that incredible deck staring out at that view. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/02f8ad4c-28bf-4de4-b072-aad0c285dcc9-1758835017920.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/418a463b-49ac-45a1-9359-e1ecfef040bc-1758835021310.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/98c2a2aa-a2e7-415e-9376-c74e3c3c53be-1758835024437.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ca956390-43a8-4f5e-8a0d-dde0f29002b7-1758835025955.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Janis E.

Also, checking out at 10 AM is difficult, especially with a toddler. 11 AM, I know it’s only one hour, would’ve made a world of difference.That being said, I could see us coming back here again because the view is so beautiful, the beach was amazing, and it was so quiet and peaceful. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ca9719d5-56bb-4a2a-b77d-219b648d21d8-1754940491291.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e514858e-4baf-41c2-9de6-b8062d9df78f-1754940493068.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/08e13b41-0ab2-4be2-9b2c-6abbd4235395-1754940493147.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Zachary E.

Great location between the tulip farms and Anacortes on the water. Saw eagles in the mornings. Sleeps 6 comfortably. Our 7th slept on the couch. There is no longer a bunk room as the listing says. Loved the swivel chair in the living room to watch the water or talk to the family - great place for morning tea! ##### Susan T. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dustin F.

We went to Anacortes for a whale watching trip and watched F-18’s in the pattern over Whidbey Island NAS. The stay was so relaxing. Thanks for letting us enjoy your special place. ##### Dustin F.

Family get away for first timers to the NW US. Anacortes is a perfect location for access to the San Juan's and whales and stunning nature hikes. This was a lovely cottage set directly on the bay with privacy, nature and beauty just out the window. The icing on the cake would be kyack out the back porch. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Debby D.

Our small family enjoyed every moment at this wonderful rental. We are originally from Skagit County and what a perfect spring visit from our home in Montana. We will definitely return. ##### Debby D. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Frances G. Sep 6, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Centrally located oasis Great property, well appointed and convenient. It is 10-20 mins from all the local attractions and a great place to use as a base. There were 5 of us and everyone had their own space. The kitchen/living room/ dining room is an inviting open gathering space and the kitchen well equipped. The skylights and wood details throughout the property are charming. The view is as lovely as the pictures show! We only wish it had been a bit warmer and no burn ban in place so we could have enjoyed the beach more. Thank you for a wonderful Labor Day weekend! ##### Frances G. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Yuan Z.

Perfectly situated for island hopping and shopping (especially easy to walk on to the ferry, but watch the schedules!). Lots of great restaurants in La Conner, Anacortes and islands. Beach house was perfect for lounging around and enjoying the view from kitchen/dining/great room. Bedroom/beds are probably ideal for two couples and 3-4 kids, but we made it work. Thank you for sharing your home! ##### Nicole M.
