San Juan Island, Elwha Suite #1902

*** This home is people friendly, and not pet friendly. ***

You will feel like you’re living in a postcard when you stay at The Ferry Landing Suites! The Elwha Suite is a delightful two bedroom condo located on the center level of a landmark building just a few steps from the heart of historic Friday Harbor. There is no accommodation more convenient for walking from the ferry landing or seaplane dock should you choose to leave the car behind on the mainland. When you do bring the car, there’s a coveted on-site parking space reserved just for you.

You will find all the attractions and activities that Friday Harbor has to offer within a short stroll, including whale watching excursions, kayak adventures, local shops, fine galleries, theater, and an eclectic selection of restaurants. As an added bonus, there’s a coffee shop on the lower level where you can sip your morning latte, enjoy fresh baked goods, or enjoy a fresh fruit smoothie. During the summer, perch up on your balcony above the bustling street to enjoying watching the ferries glide in and out of the harbor. During the fall and winter months, you will find the Elwha a wonderful place to snuggle up indoors and enjoy the quiet, reflective atmosphere cherished by the locals.

The Elwha Suite is beautifully furnished, featuring two equal bedrooms, both with queen-sized beds. The living area is spacious offering a sleeper sofa, full kitchen, and dining table. A perfect choice for two couples or small family. This unit is people friendly, and not pet friendly.

Interim cleaning is available on request.

Please note this condo has 17 steps to get to the entrance.

A beautiful getaway

Wow! What a place. My husband, two sons (7 month old and 2.5 year old), and I loved our stay here. Our favorite spot by far was the window nook - what an amazing view! My two year old loved watching the ferries come in and out and all the sea planes take off and land. My husband and I also enjoyed sitting on the deck during our kids’ afternoon nap to enjoy the scenery and play some cribbage. The apartment is well furnished, cozy, and clean. The beds are very comfortable. I couldn’t recommend this place more! Such a special vacation and beautiful island. Will most certainly come back. A small side note to consider: it’s important to know that this is a busier area of the downtown (with the ferry loading/unloading) and a coffee shop right downstairs…so plan on waking up with the city as it starts to get noisy around 6 am. If you’re morning people like us, then this will be no problem! If not though, bringing a white noise device is a solid solution to drown out the morning hustle and bustle.

I took my older father there to get out and he enjoyed the front window, watching the ferry come and go, along with the people. Great location to food, ice-cream and the water. Parking was easy access. Would stay again.

Great property, but the noise is an issue

We have stayed in this unit before and we love the view and the outside deck area. The location is super convenient. The apartment is decently appointed. The beds are comfortable, there were plenty of towels for four of us. They have games to play: Sorry, Monopoly, Scrabble, chess/checkers, backgammon, puzzles and more. Now for the bad: the noise from the coffee shop below is horrible. Don't plan on sleeping any later than 7 as the constant banging from downstairs, even with earplugs, was unbearable. We all left this morning feeling exhausted from not being able to get enough sleep. I don't know what, if anything, the owners can do about this, but it's a real problem for anyone who might want to relax on vacation. The internet was not really working while we were there either and they told us they couldn't fix it. We were able to hot spot from our phones to our computers, but that wasn't ideal as we wanted to stream some movies, but can only tether 5GB. They also don't have enough glasses. We didn't really eat there, so I'm not sure about the rest of the kitchen, but for four adults, we definitely did not have enough glassware for our wine and champagne drinking it out of a water glass in the end. The patio is filthy dirty. I don't know the last time they cleaned it, but it was foul. Would we stay here again? Maybe, if we absolutely knew we were going to be up early every day. Otherwise, probably not.

Fun Watching the Ferrys Come and Go

Great place to stay if you don’t want to mess with bringing a vehicle to the island. We could walk everywhere in Friday Harbor and one day rented mopeds and rode them to Roche Harbor for lunch. Unit was easy to access (though the stairs may be an issue for some) and had everything we needed for the five of us. Would definitely rent it again!

Fabulous Friday Harbor rental

Such a wonderful vacation rental! The location could not be more convenient! Walking distance from ferry and shops/ restaurants in Friday Harbor.

Perfect location

This is the perfect location if you are looking for a true Friday Harbor downtown, ferry area stay. It's all right there and a GREAT location. Be aware that there is no air conditioning in this and in most properties in the Islands. The owner provided fans and the windows could all be opened. Literally walk ANYWHERE.

Perfect location in Friday Harbor

Without knowing much about Friday Harbor, we lucked into this place and it was the perfect choice. We had 2 grandparents, 2 adults, and 2 children. Views of the ferry, seaplanes, and all the activity in town, plus walking distance to everything in town. Thanks for a perfect “bucket list” experience!

Great Location

This property was well represented in the listing. We loved the view, loved the location and all that was around us. The restaurants, coffee shops and ice cream shops were great for our teens to independently go to. My feedback: there is no AC and the afternoons get hot. We were there early June and I can’t imagine how hot it is later in the summer. I saw great reviews on the noise and wanted to weigh in on that as well. The noise of the restaurant next door was never a nuisance. The ferry does make noise most of the day but it doesn’t impact the ambiance. The only noise that did impact us was the coffee shop downstairs. The noise traveled greatly in the mornings and woke us up early. If you are an early riser, it will not affect you.

Best Location in Friday Harbor

We were on San Juan Island for a family member's wedding at Roche Harbor, but this was also our annual summer vacation with all of our adult children. What a fantastic property, incredible location, and all-around great place to stay. I thought the ferry landing and traffic might bother us, but I found myself being fascinated by watching the onboarding and offloading process, and never tired of the people watching. Beautiful views of the harbor, coffee shop right below us in the same building, and walking distance to everything in town. Northwest Island Escapes personnel were friendly, helpful, and always available. Our stay couldn't have been better.

Unbeatable location

We absolutely LOVED staying here. This will be the first place we check when we head back up to Friday Harbor to visit our son and his wife. We sat by the window and watched the ferries come and go while the guys played their guitar and our daughter in law did her knitting. Our daughter loved how close it is to the ice cream store. Seriously, this location is the absolute BEST place to be in town. Don't hesitate to book here. Easy check in and out and the outdoor patio was so nice to have coffee on in the morning. There isn't a Ruch to get to the ferry line since it is across the street. We walked everywhere which was nice too. We had a great time!

Great location, hot

Location is great, just steps off the ferry. The first day we were there the apartment was very warm, even with all the windows open and the 2 provided fans. There is no AC (which we knew ahead of time). Our baby monitor measured a temperature of around 83 degrees. This made it hard for our little one to get to sleep. The remaining days we were there temps were in the 70s and the rental was much more comfortable. It was somewhat noisy with the windows open given the close proximity to the ferry line up, but this didn't bother us that much. There's no laundry, which I didn't think would be a problem until our daughter developed a stomach bug during our stay :/ Overall it was a great location close to everything and we enjoyed watching the boats on the harbor. Will probably rent with somewhere with AC/laundry in the future.

Wonderful, charming unit. Highly recommend

This was a charming unit right in all the action on Friday harbor. We watched the ferries come in and out from the sweet window seat. Enjoyed the coffee shop downstairs, waked to all restaurants, boat dock, etc. There is a coffee shop downstairs and the queue for the cars for the ferry is right out your window so you may want some earplugs if you are a light sleeper. That wouldn’t deter us, though. We are meals out on the deck overlooking the water. Would definitely stay here again.
