About this property

Situated on 600 feet of both rocky and sandy beach, this contemporary home sits on one of San Juan Island's largest stretches of private waterfront, attracting deer, owls, fox, seals, otters and bald eagles. Take in the 180 degree view from Spieden Island to Mount Baker. You will welcome the amazing morning sunrises to spectacular sunsets from this uniquely situated home.
We supply crab pots, shrimp pots and dip nets which you can use right off the beach. Go down at night with a flashlight and the dip net. Shine the light into the water and the shrimp come to the surface. Some guests like to scuba dive off our property which is full of crab and scallop.
Except at very high tide, at the bottom of the wooden stairs, there is a cove to launch kayaks. This side of the Island is the safest for kayaking and almost always calm.
The open floor plan in this home has a spiral staircase to sleeping loft that sleeps 4. The bedroom has super-comfortable California King bed with views of the water. The casual dining right off the completely equipped kitchen and just steps from the outdoor deck. Wood stove in the living room will make this a pleasant stay in cooler months too!

Family best

We arrived later than expected and once we opened the door, the girls were in awe. They thought it was amazing. My wife loved the view. I loved the tranquility. It felt like if I was going to retire on an island, this would be it.

Amazing little get-away!

We had the best time staying at Point Caution! We had a nice, but rainy time exploring the island and knowing we had a cozy place to return to each day was heavenly. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed and more. There's nothing better than waking up with this view and enjoying a cup of coffee! Thank you, Charles!

Got Engaged!

Nice place. VERY private. Great get away and place I could stage a "message in a bottle" engagement request. Rocky beach and no sand but thankfully I had the bottle attached to a net so could "hang it up" on some roots to be "found" by my girlfriend. Got some great video. Thanks a ton. Willy .

Perfect Honeymoon

We came here for our long overdue honeymoon. It was perfect. We both wanted someplace very simple and cold weather and we for sure got that. We were snowed in for 4 days out of our 7 but it was worth it all!! The house was so cute the view was unbelievable. We loved that it was a full house so we could cook the whole time we were gone. We cannot wait to stay here again. Charles and his wife were the perfect host. We had to call him a couple of times and he answered right away and helped us figure stuff out which had nothing to do with him or his home. Our life has been super busy and stressful so coming out to the island was perfect. We came from Texas and it was worth every second we were here.

Stayed 6 nights in Jan 2024

About the host

Hosted by Kristy & Charles Herrick

Charles and Kristy Herrick live in Sammamish, Washington just east of Seattle in the foothills. Charles does relief work in Africa, India and Afghanistan.He has been a longtime executive in the IT industry, a business consultant and licensed realtor. He is an author and several of his books are available for reading and a complimentary copy of his book Breath of Kenya is given to guests as a way of saying thank you. Kristy is an avid gardener. She weaves, spins and knits and maintains the one and half acre English garden at our home in Sammamish. Our bulldog Otis does absolutely nothing, which meets expectations and then some.

Why they chose this property

Wonderful seclusion just an hour's ferry ride from Anacortes. San Juan is quaint and a bit yesteryear. Friday Harbor is a small town with just about everything you need except for franchise stores. San Juan gets about a third of the rainy days of Seattle. The main road is only a mile away and it's a calm rural road which is great for running, walking or bike riding. Turning right just before the winery and heading down a tree arched road we fell in love with our 6 acres of paradise. It is perhaps the finest piece of property on the Island.

What makes this property unique

Seclusion. Fishing, crabbing, and tide pool viewing. Unparalleled bird and wildlife viewing. Waterfront cookouts. Water, wonderful view of other islands and Mt. Baker.
