The bare wood walls and pitched ceiling added charm. The patio is huge and was greatly used. We sat outside every morning despite the cold with cups of coffee and the use of the chiminea.

I would definitely recommend staying at this property. Great location at a great rate. Thank you for having us!

The granite counter tops and tiled floors in the kitchen and bathroom were beautiful and the living area was exceptionally clean. Each bedroom was about the same size and had plenty of room for belongings including a good sized closet as well as a large dresser. There is a view of Liberty Bay from the windows and water access from the property, which we took advantage of as crab season opened the weekend we were there. Wade and Julia, the owners, were very accommodating and Wade even pointed us in the right direction to fill our limit on crab that weekend. The Guesthouse is central to everything we wanted to do in Poulsbo. It's a 3 minute drive to downtown, with great shops, especially Sluy's Bakery (the best doughnuts/pastries ever). It's about a five minute drive to to the local casino, where we enjoyed an evening of relaxing, low-stakes gambling and it's about 15 minutes to the ferry landing when we wanted to enjoy a couple of days sightseeing in Seattle. I can't say enough good things about our experience at the Lemolo Greenhouse Guesthouse. Very highly recommended!

Everything I contacted them about, they just dismissed. Our review was not the only one to state that their listing was misleading. They state it's beachfront but it's not. You have to walk across the street and once you get to the beach there is no place to sit , there's too many logs on the beach and the two chairs they do have out there actually propped up on the logs so there's no safe way to crawl up there unless you're Spiderman. The house we stayed at on Whidbey Island was dirty. We felt it was important to share that with them because if they're paying a cleaning service and assuming it was clean, it was not and I think it was important to let them know that. The main place to sit in the house is on the couch in front of the TV and it was so dirty that they had tried to cover it with a big blue blanket. It wasn't a sofa cover that could've covered the sofa it was a blanket that kept falling off. It just didn't seem very professional for a rental house. And for what they charge daily they should provide a nice clean couch or perhaps cover the couch with a fitting couch cover that's not going to fall off like a blanket every time you sit down on it. They did say that the previous tenant had messed up the couch, but you think they would have replaced it before renting it again or lowered the price of the rental and showed a picture of the couch so you know what you were going to have to sit on while staying there. They didn't apologize for this, they didn't change their listing or their photos for true representation of this property. We did appreciate that it was dog friendly, and that the kitchen and laundry facilities worked. The neighborhood was nice for the most part with beautiful flowers everywhere and bunnies. One of the neighbors was really rude to us but we tried to make the best of our stay. The most breathtaking view is not from their house nor from the beach but when you pull into the neighborhood onto the street at the top of the hill. It is gorgeous. The pet fee they charge is $65. And we paid that. We left the house in the same condition we arrived. Now they're trying to charge us another $65 pet fee a month later because we left a honest review of our experience.

I only wish I had spent another day after the festival was over to enjoy the beautiful lake.

Every November a business meeting takes my husband and me to the Pacific Northwest and each visit…read morewe try to explore a new area. My daughter, who lives in Olympia, Washington, encouraged us to visit the San Juan Islands (and take her with us, of course) this year. I looked at several possibilities and settled on the San Juan Waterhouse because of its location to the ocean, its view of Canada, the fact it had Internet (I thought I might need to work) and its online reviews. We were lucky that our son was also able to join us, so we felt we needed three bedrooms. The San Juan Waterhouse sits on the edge of the Haro Straight. Its water facing wall is nothing but windows, so nearly every location in the house (including the master bathroom) provides an easy view of the water. The house has three bedrooms. The master bedroom is situated so you can see Canada from the comfortable king size bed. The second bedroom is in a room with three walls of windows. This bed is a Queen. The third bedroom has two twin beds and has high windows overlooking the sod roof of the house. The main room of the house has comfortable furniture surrounding a beautiful stonework fireplace (gas) and padded window seats with many pillows for reading and gazing at the water. The kitchen. Oh my goodness, the kitchen! It has everything you could possibly need for cooking (including basic spices) and an amazing Viking stove. I'd never used one of these before and now covet one for my own house. Because my family was not going to be together for Thanksgiving, we had a Thanksgiving celebration two weeks early and cooking the meal was a breeze (and fun) in that kitchen. The kitchen also holds the house's main heat source -- a gas powered iron stove. It really heats up the place -- even the master bedroom which is down a long windowed hallway. The house has two bathrooms. One, as previously mentioned, has views of the water through the windowed French doors. (they have curtains, so don't worry about privacy). This bathroom has a claw-foot bathtub and a separate shower. The second, smaller, bathroom holds a second claw-foot bathtub (no shower). While the house itself is amazing, the best part is the location. The architect took great pains to fit it in with the surroundings and Frank Lloyd Wright slopped ceilings guide your eyes to the beautiful landscape out the windows. The house is situated on a small cove. My son and daughter ventured out during a late-night very low tide and found some interesting sea life in the tide pools. We had one beautiful sunny day and one day with strong winds and violent waves. We saw many gulls, three eagles and two small deer. I am already plotting our return to this beautiful house -- hopefully in the summer next time.

I did not stay overnight here but I did go through the reservation process including submitting my…read morecredit card number, name and address. Basically, the owner made an offer in an email that she did not keep and reserved the cabin out from under us a few days before our trip. Here are the details: I wrote Rita an email asking about the cost for a three night stay. She wrote back with a final cost and I confirmed via phone call. I gave over my full name, credit card info and home address. She then called back and said she was sorry, but the price she'd quoted me was incorrect because she'd based it on two nights rather than three. She owned the mistake and gave me a new price reflecting three nights. I agreed to the new price initially, and she sent over a contract to sign before 7pm that evening. After speaking with my wife, we decided the new price was simply too high so I wrote Rita to cancel. She apologized again and offered one of the nights for free to make up for the mistake. She said she'd email me a new contract to reflect this adjustment. I said that was wonderful. She wrote back shortly after to say that she was sorry, but someone else had begun to reserve those dates and she'd write back if they fell through. Ok? So here I'd gone 95% of the way through the process, received an offer in no uncertain terms, and had it retracted at the last minute ostensibly to earn more dollars from another client. I didn't post screen shots of our emails here as a courtesy. If it's your first time staying here I'd strongly consider other options first given the customer service issues I'd encountered so early in the process.
