About This Home

Searching for a private island getaway? These charming, tiny cabins on Eliza Island offer a rare opportunity to own a peaceful retreat in the San Juan Islands region of Whatcom County. Designed for simple living, one cabin features a cozy living area, loft bedroom, and the other a full kitchen and bathroom with a shower—perfect for weekend escapes off the grid. Situated on a quiet interior lot just shy of one acre, the property is surrounded by mature trees with easy access to nearby beaches, shoreline walks, and island exploration. A 3-bedroom septic is already installed, creating flexibility to build an additional cabin up to 1,450 sq ft and expand into a multi-cabin retreat. This property is especially well-suited for shared ownership—consider partnering with friends or colleagues to create your own private retreat experience. In addition to the cabins, the property offers space to host—bring tents, gather around the fire, and create your own camping experience. Spend your days exploring the beaches, paddleboarding, beachcombing, and enjoying the simple fun of being surrounded by nature. It’s the kind of place where memories are made. While short-term rentals are not allowed on Eliza Island, co-ownership offers a smart and enjoyable way to maximize use and make island living more accessible. Located approximately 20 minutes from Bellingham by boat, plane, or with the walk-on water taxi access available for added convenience. No rentals allowed.
