Just a few blocks from center of town and across the street from the high school field. My kids played soccer and ran around for hours before exhausting themselves and getting a great night of sleep.
Great place for a family to stay!
Well appointed property , although nothing fancy. Great proximity to everything in town on a side street that is nothing special. Overall very good value for the money.
Overall, pretty good. Opportunities for improvement..... the bed was pretty hard and the frame was a bit wobbly and squeaked, and the patio furniture was not in very good condition and patio chairs were not comfortable.

Disliked: Cleanliness
We found a drawer full of drugs in the master bedroom. We were completely horrified to know that our children were in that room and we slept there. So horrible and disgusting. I cannot believe that not only there were people using drugs in this property, but also it was not cleaned up before we arrived!
The greatest appeal of this place, for us, was its location -- on a street a few short blocks from the center of Friday Harbor, near coffee shops, restaurants, etc. The apartment was cozy and clean, with a bunk bed in the living room for our two kids and a bedroom in the back for us. We were very pleased with it, and with our vacation.
The location of this apt was spot on-- only a few blocks from downtown/marina. It was clean. Easy access. The furniture/decor is outdated but we did not care as we only used the apt for sleeping/showering as there is too much to do there! My only suggestion/complaint/recommendation is to change the bed/bed frame. Every time you got in it, turned over or moved at all it would squeak and wake us up. It would be worth the investment for a new frame.. thanks for having us.
I thought it would be a bit closer to the ferry but it's not a horrible walk. The building is situated on a sort of triangle of land so there's streets on both sides. It wasn't too loud though but it's also not really in what I would consider a residential area. The bed was a bit on the bouncy side so if you have a partner that moves a lot in bed, you might want to consider the twin bed in the living room! The pull out sofa is really a futon so it's more like a full sized bed. It was great to have the fireplace as it was chilly. I did not love the lockbox for the key. If I were the property owner, I would install a keypad deadbolt. Especially since you can't tell if the door is locked or not so it would be really easy to lock yourself out. The patio is really nice and big but also overlooks the street but we liked it so we could store our bikes out there. I would definitely stay again, it's a nice place.
Very clean. Good location just a few minutes walk from the waterfront. Nice to have a dedicated parking space, but this also would be an ideal location if you are not traveling with a vehicle. Good kitchen and nice large outdoor balcony.
Our family of four, including two teenagers, enjoyed our stay. It's a great location in walking distance of the ferry (we did not bring a car) and town. We had everything we needed for a three-night stay. It was our first trip to Friday Harbor, and we had a fantastic time on a whale watching trip, all day sea kayaking trip, and exploring town. Hope to be back someday.
