Turtleback Mountain is a wilderness-preservation success story. Recently the target of a development effort on Orcas Island, a popular weekend destination for people from Seattle, it was saved from that fate largely by the efforts of one man and his organization, Tim Seifert, executive director of the San Juan Preservation Trust. Thanks to their work, the mountain is now a wilderness area, in perpetuity. As a bonus, a network of trails is now available to allow hikers and sight-seers a chance to explore the mountain. The trails are beautiful and serene and not nearly as crowded as those on the more popular Mount Constitution, which sits on the other side of the island. There are just a few open viewpoints, such as this one, but they do pack a punch. Beyond that, the forest scenery is just fantastic.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248621551374329/a3f5dfec-0e3b-46bd-a47e-83d10c88180c.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Turtleback Mountain 10 min drive \- 9.7 km - West Sound Marina 6 min drive \- 6.9 km - Orcas Island Golf Course 9 min drive \- 11.7 km - Skull Island State Park 12 min drive \- 12.4 km - Orcas Island Historical Museum 14 min drive \- 16.2 km ### Getting around - Westsound, WA (WSX) 16 min drive ### Restaurants - Salty Fox Coffee 54 min drive - Big Foot Lodge Wine Cellar 60 min drive - Downriggers 53 min drive - San Juan Coffee & Chocolate Co. 54 min drive - Blue Water Bar & Grill 53 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Orcas Island, Orcas Hill House #297 pet-friendly? ### How much is parking? ### What time is check-in at Orcas Island, Orcas Hill House #297? ### What time is check-out at Orcas Island, Orcas Hill House #297? ### Where is Orcas Island, Orcas Hill House #297 located? ## Have a question?

Sep 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The place was very charming. The views were amazing and it was fun to just watch the boats go by. We even got to see a few turkeys roaming the yard. Definitely would stay here again ##### John L. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeremy A. Sep 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great hidden spot just up the hill from the ferry terminal. The view is amazing. It’s not fancy, but had everything we needed. I would definitely stay there again. One spot that could stand improvement is the extremely short shower head. There are very affordable, easy to install options that would make the shower taller rather than shorter. ##### Jeremy A. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Art & Success -. Oct 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We truly enjoyed staying at this wonderful home. The location was beautiful and tucked away in the woods, and very private. We had all the things we needed in the kitchen to enjoy many meals, including fresh crab! Our one pet is an elderly Schnauzer and he enjoyed roaming the grassy areas. We would definitely like to return again! Pam and Byron ##### Art & Success -.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was beautiful - the beds were very nice! Supplies in the kitchen were perfect! The deck was beautiful and perfect. The washer and dryer were very handy. The deck was beautiful and perfect. Unfortunately, the living room furniture not comfortable. When we arrived the cabinet in the master bedroom that holds all the supplies was wide open. We closed it and put the open lock on it to hold it shut. (could have been bad if we were dishonest) The living room furniture not comfortable. The kitchen table was covered in crumbs. There were dirty dishes on the counter. (This only shows bad for housekeeping, not the house itself) Everyone at your company was amazing to deal with. If I was in the area again, I would definately stay here or rent with your group again!

Jul 20, 2019 #### Wonderful Orcas Island Vacation Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at Orcas Hill House for 4 days. It is in a great location close to the ferry and about 25 minutes from Eastsound. The views were spectacular. The house itself was the cleanest Airbnb I've been in and was extremely comfortable. There is some Ferry noise, and one morning it was foggy, so the Ferry blew it's horn every time it left the landing. This was not a bother to us, but something to be aware of if you have kids that are light sleepers. We spent every night out on the deck looking out over the water. Orcas Island was great. We went whale watching and saw a Pacific Northwest Humpback whale. We also went kayaking and saw seals, porpoise, eagles nest, lots of sea stars and other ocean things. I would highly recommended Orcas Island and this Airbnb to my friends. ##### Beth S. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### CHRIS G.

I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Orcas Hill House property was a perfect sanctuary to end our long Pacific Northwest vacation. After a few weeks of dodging the BC fires we ended our time off with clear skies in the San Juan's and spent a few days re-exploring Orcas Island. The home had all of the amenities we needed to enjoy a few nights of BBQs and cocktails. We hope to return soon. ##### CHRIS G.

The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband, brother and sister-in-law recently stayed at the Orcas Hill House. The setting and location are wonderful, close to the ferry and high on a hill with a terrific view. The place is a little on the campy/cabiny side and could use some updates for sure (or a discount in price), but we enjoyed the house, it was comfy, relaxing and quiet. A second shower should be a major priority as it was awkward with 4 adults using one shower indeed! Overall, though, we had a great time and got a lot of use out of the huge balcony!

The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed in this cabin for almost a week using it mostly at night as we spent our days out on a boat. There was an issue on the first night of our stay. The rental agency responded rapidly and did their best to resolve the issue. This cabin has beautiful views and the kitchen is well stocked with all you would need. The furniture is straight from the 60s or 70s. The beds were incredibly comfortable. The linens and towels should be replaced. ##### julie l.

The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful view, but a serious uphill walk from the ferry terminal. Part of the road is not paved so you will be walking through mud. Much easier to find the house in the day time so try to be at the house before dark. House is decorated ala 1950's with lots of olds books for reading. The house seemed too made for really short people so anyone tall may have to duck when showering and the “john” is quiet short, only one shower in the house in the master bedroom so keep that in mind. The TV is old school and small, our technology did not work with it. They do have some VHS tapes and Direct TV but we could only get 5 channels to work, only one TV available. Code for the wireless is on the bottom of the router not the one in the book. Only had one roll of TP for a 5 days stay so bring some with you. Very quiet and peaceful, cell phone had no service at the house but did at the bottom of the hill. The temp of the house varies a lot. Windows are single pane so the sun really heats up the house but when the sun went down it cooled down very fast. Not really a yard to play in moss covered slopes so no game of touch football here if that is what you were looking for. Master bed was very comfortable and cozy. They are serious about the check out time being at 10 am. The house cleaners showed up a day early due to miscommunication and woke us up and were promptly back the next day at 9:55 am. Do not doddle when leaving.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at this location many times over a period of 20 years. Our first impression on this trip was that the house looked fresh and neat. It had been painted and had new furniture on the front porch. I loved the linens on the bed in the master. There were plenty of towels in the bathroom and kitchen. A new toaster would improve the kitchen a lot for a small cost. The view from the decks is a magnet - you have to keep looking and a full moon didn't hurt. Looks like this was our last trip to Orcas Island but it was a grand finale.

Please let me know about the boy's bathing suit we left in the dryer. I gave the address for it to be sent to in Redmond. We will be happy to pay postage. Also - you need to know about the carpenter ant droppings I left in the paper cup...they were on the table when we arrived. Manager responded on 8/11/2011: Suit was sent!

Reviewer Comments: We've been staying at this property off and on since the early 90's. We appreciate the improvements (guest room, bathrooms, bed and bedding). With the big jump in price we expected to find things in better order. The washing machine didn't work, the dishwasher broke down within two days and we had to buy our own 10" non-stick skillet as the kitchen equipment was minimal. When the light above the dining room table burned out we had to take a bulb from the bathroom as there were no replacements. The reading lamps have 60 watt bulbs and were not suitable for reading. The biggest disappointment was that with the lovely upgrade in the guest bathroom there was no shower added even though there is space for one. Laura from Windemere was helpful and attentive and shared our frustration I'm sure. We've stayed in another property that felt like a home but the proximity of the Hiss house to the ferry makes it very convenient. Too bad it gave us a chilly reception.

The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a nice time and enjoyed the home. Only problem was that there were quite a lot of ants inside the home. Please notify the owner that they may have a carpenter ant problem.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cottage is a great location being a very short distance from the ferry terminal; however, if you do not have transportation you walk up a rather steep hill to get to the house. even w/luggage on wheels we struggled (we're in relatively good shape, mid 40's). highly recommend renting a car at the time you arrive for 24 hours - this will get you to the house much easier and it's a great way to get around Orcas for 1 day. bus transp. is nice, but $6/pp/each way. renting a car for 1 day gives you flexibility to see all you want to see on Orcas. car rental is just up street from ferry terminal.
