*** This home is people friendly, and not pet friendly. ***
Shed the pace of the city, kick off your shoes, wind down, and happily absorb the atmosphere of an Island summer day in this gorgeous waterfront vacation home on the shore of Fisherman Bay.
The first thing you’ll notice upon entering this home is the clean, spacious, and well-designed layout of the living and dining rooms. There is plenty of room for family members of all ages to enjoy a comfortable and relaxed time. The rooms are sunny and bright with large windows that bring the views eastward across the blue waters of the Bay into the home. Turn the corner to the kitchen and you will find all the amenities (including new AC and a backup generator) needed to create a wonderful island meal along with plenty of space for conversation with friends. Windows abound here too and keep that blue water always present in your mind.
As afternoon heads to evening and you begin to think about resting your head on a pillow, follow the hallway from the kitchen/living room and you will find the bedrooms of which there are three. For the captain of this excursion you will find a waterside master bedroom equipped with a queen bed with adjoining bathroom with shower. Down the hall further you'll find the second and third bedrooms, each with cozy queen beds. These two bedrooms share a second bathroom with shower. Because of an extensive interior makeover, this home and each of its rooms shows as nearly new. Even the water system has been upgraded for this year's start of the summer rental season.
As you return to the living room, head past the furniture and you’ll be greeted by a wonderful deck which extends the full length of the house and is the true definition of “outdoor living” done right. Whether BBQing an evening meal, enjoying morning coffee, or simply lounging, you will undoubtedly spend a lot of time outdoors here, or playing games with the kids on the waterside lawn that spreads out in front of you.
Once you’ve had a chance to settle in to the home, conversation will inevitably turn to what there is to do and you’ll be amazed by the many activities you’ll find right at your doorstep. Long beaches & parklands are located nearby on the west side of the peninsula where this home sits. Across the small bay you’ll find Lopez Kayak where you can rent a kayak and paddle all around Fisherman Bay, returning to your home when it’s time for an afternoon nap or a turn at the blender with friends. Lopez Islander Resort is on the other side of the Bay and easily accessible by kayak or car, and Lopez Village, with its cute boutiques and shops is near as well.
Fisherman Bay Retreat is a vacation home that your friends and family will thoroughly enjoy. We hope you decide to stay with us! This home is people friendly, and not pet friendly.
Please note this home has 3 steps on a gravel path leading to the entrance of the home.

Thank you for staying again we are happy to hear about your stay and we look forward to you visiting and staying again. NW Island Escapes
My family and I loved staying in this rental. The location was perfect, easy to get to everything on the island (and we loved driving down Bayshore road with the water on either side every time we came back from exploring!), quiet, secluded, and such a beautiful view. I particularly enjoyed the master bedroom view, perfect for early morning quiet time, as well as the spacious bathtub, great for a soak after a lot of hiking. We were pleased with the cleanliness of everything, and the furniture was in great shape. We were drawn outside again and again to birdwatch and enjoy the view. My daughter found it a perfect spot for painting and my youngest found the grass great for tumbling. ;) I also appreciated how well stocked the kitchen was. A few tips for those planning to stay: the water does not get very hot for very long. Plan accordingly for bathing and dishes. Also, the extra towels are located in the second bathroom cupboard (I thought all we had was in the master!). Lastly, there is no recycling or garbage disposal in this rental so plan accordingly. Overall we highly recommend Fishermans Bay retreat!
We had a great stay with our one year olds! It was child friendly, the management was stellar and really accommodating and the place was so clean! Had a great time and will be back!!
This home was clean, comfortable and well appointed. Just over the spit and down a wooded dirt road, the house sits in the Bay, affording great nature watching day and night, during serene and stormy times. Daily walks from the home to the Spit, again more unbelievable nature watching, is a comfortable 2.5 mile round trip. The kitchen was fully stocked (wow, sharpened knives -a treasure!), the master bedroom has its own bathroom, a a dories hallway separates the other two bedrooms and bath, providing privacy. One thing to note was a sudden loss of water at varied times. In addition, the Internet connection was very weak. We had to call the providers to up the bandwidth. We were unable to enter our own passwords into the Roku, but we solved that by bringing our own. A radio would make a nice addition to this home. The property management firm was always prompt and responsive, though they have an incorrect internet password on the house information sheet. We found the correct one in the house. We feel fortunate to have found this lovely, quiet property.
The stay was perfect. Right across the bay from our family. Everything was very convenient, clean, and new. Due to the weather, we were not able to use the lawn chairs but that was the only down fall. Would definitely stay here again.
The house is secluded on the water yet close enough to bike to the stores. We had a fabulous time. Thank you for sharing your place with us.
Very clean, nice deck, well stocked kitchen, attentive hosts. Would recommend.
A great property, with a beautiful view back across Fisherman's bay toward town and the Islander. Very well cleaned upon arrival. NW Island Escapes is always a pleasure to book with!

What a wonderful place for an extended weekend! The location in Fisherman's Bay is quiet and peaceful. The house feels a lot bigger than it looks from the outside because of all the big windows and high ceilings. Inside is clean, very-well maintained and nicely decorated. I would highly recommend this place.
This place was special. With access to the bay for Kayaks, and proximity cose to the village, as well as being centrally located on the Island, we couldnt imagine a better cacation location. Add the big windows looking out to the bay and cozy bright and comfortable living spaces - we really were able to kick back and enjoy it all. We kayaked the bay and around the island right out of the home, and we biked everywhere as all was attainable to get to distance wise. The final blessing was how the home was sighted making you really feel you are away from it all and private.
The weather was great, nice breeze, great view and very clean and nicely apportioned home. The only down side was that there was a 1/2 mile long gravel road to get to this property. This was only an issue as we has road bikes which don't do well with gravel. Not dusty, just had to transport bikes to the paved county road. Lopez Is. is a great place to cycle.
A beautiful spot at water level for great views. This is a wonderful house, not a cabin, with a great kitchen and fine bathrooms and bedrooms.
We came to Lopez for a cycling weekend and after a lovely drive along a beach spit then thru the woods, Im glad we found this comfortable, well appointed vacation home. We loved the large kitchen layout w plenty of counters to spread out our snacks and the spacious living room area that opened out onto the deck area.
Though our weekend stay was cloudy & misty we could see how much the patio deck would be used when it its sunny. The bedrooms had comfy beds and great reading lights w dimmers so one could read & not disturb anyone.
We found the instructions and follow up fr the property management company very organized and professional inc a followup check-in.
We would recommend & stay here again.
We loved the rental . It was in a great location, the kitchen had everything you need, the beds were very comfortable. We will be back.
