About this property

The Stuga - Walk to Water w/Views

  • Located in the Historic Hamlet of Olga, The Stuga provides a quiet, spacious retreat conveniently located within steps of the water, two beaches, and a public dock. Water views on both levels, high-end linens, fully stocked kitchen, fiber internet, all in a thoughtfully designed space. Light-filled interior spaces provide comfort & convenience, great for families, groups, or remote work. Moran State Park, Doe Bay, and Mt Constitution are a quick 5 min drive, with Eastsound only 12 min away.

    A comfortable mix of modern updates with vintage character help create an inviting space for your family and friends to enjoy as a home base on Orcas. The Stuga preserves its historic charm and cabin feel as you soak in the beauty that Orcas Island has to offer. Each room has partial water views so you can watch the ferries and whales go by in the distance from anywhere in the house.

    The home has 3 beds, 2 bathrooms
    The primary bedroom is large and has a queen bed, and two twin beds with amazing water views.

    The upstairs bedroom has a full bed with private balcony and amazing water views, sleeps two.

    The downstairs bedroom has a queen bed that sleeps two.

    The living room has a large couch that is also a queen size sleeper sofa with memory foam mattress. All beds have organic cotton linens and plenty of pillows.

    The kitchen is fully stocked to prepare family meals with a new stove, new full size Cafe Appliance fridge/freezer, Bosch dishwasher, microwave, and farmhouse sink. Coffee can be made with the Chemex pour over or traditional coffee maker and provided coffee beans.

    A 55" HDTV with Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, and DVD player with DVD collection is provided for nightly entertainment along with plenty of board games, card games, and puzzles.

    Water access is steps from The Stuga in two locations. Explore the tide pools, dig for clams, fish, and crab off of the dock. The dock is available in the summer months for mooring your boat.

    Outside, enjoy the firepit and large front yard and deck for sunning, cleaning your catch, or exploring Olga.

    Both bathrooms have been fully updated with the downstairs having a walk-in curbless shower and both bathrooms have heated tile floors.

    Ask about our guest house (The Little Stuga) if you have over 7 adults.

    Fiber Internet
    Air Conditioning and Heating
    Updated Bathrooms with Heated Bathroom Floors
    Updated Kitchen with dishwasher
    Full size washer and dryer

    Other Things to Note
    The house is older and has some quirks, like sloped floors in the kitchen and upstairs bedroom. These are minor and won’t detract from your visit, but wanted to make you aware.

    Our home can accommodate 9 guests, however if booking for 7+ adults, you will need to also book The Little Stuga in order to accommodate (guest house). Our home is best suited for no more than 7 adults and 2 children.

    Pets - We may allow pets on a case by case basis, please message us to see if we can accommodate.

    If an unauthorized event occurs, a $500 fee will be charged. No parties or events are allowed.

    The propane fireplaces are not operational.

    Parking is located in front of the house and is uncovered, we can accommodate 3-4 vehicles and ask that everyone park alongside the rock wall to avoid blocking the road.

    We use a self check in door code so no need to use keys.

    Mooring is available during the summer months on the public dock in Olga. We are located steps from the dock.

    Stuga is Swedish for cottage and refers to the many summer cabins that dot Sweden's coastlines, forests and islands and serve as a holiday escape, often hosting their families for celebrations throughout the year.

    The word Stuga also conjures up lots of evocative feelings for Swedes. These are typically places of peace, comfort, and mysig-ness or coziness, much closer to nature than the city.

    We hope our Stuga provides the comfort and peacefulness you seek on Orcas Island and in our small hamlet of Olga.

    Due to the time needed to adequately clean the property, we are not able to offer early check-in or late check-out. Please book an extra night if you would like to guarantee an early check- in or a late check- out.

    Ask about our guest house (Little Stuga) if you have over 7 adults.
