Other Things to Note
The house is older and has some quirks, like sloped floors in the kitchen and upstairs bedroom. These are minor and won’t detract from your visit, but wanted to make you aware.
Our home can accommodate 9 guests, however if booking for 7+ adults, you will need to also book The Little Stuga in order to accommodate (guest house). Our home is best suited for no more than 7 adults and 2 children.
Pets - We may allow pets on a case by case basis, please message us to see if we can accommodate.
If an unauthorized event occurs, a $500 fee will be charged. No parties or events are allowed.
The propane fireplaces are not operational.
Parking is located in front of the house and is uncovered, we can accommodate 3-4 vehicles and ask that everyone park alongside the rock wall to avoid blocking the road.
We use a self check in door code so no need to use keys.
Mooring is available during the summer months on the public dock in Olga. We are located steps from the dock.
Stuga is Swedish for cottage and refers to the many summer cabins that dot Sweden's coastlines, forests and islands and serve as a holiday escape, often hosting their families for celebrations throughout the year.
The word Stuga also conjures up lots of evocative feelings for Swedes. These are typically places of peace, comfort, and mysig-ness or coziness, much closer to nature than the city.
We hope our Stuga provides the comfort and peacefulness you seek on Orcas Island and in our small hamlet of Olga.
Due to the time needed to adequately clean the property, we are not able to offer early check-in or late check-out. Please book an extra night if you would like to guarantee an early check- in or a late check- out.
