Charming two-bedroom cottage near Roche Harbor provides a private and rustic hide-a-way that feels deep in the forest but offers beautiful views and beach access. Bedrooms have full size platform beds and look out onto the water. Skylights let in natural light all day long. Westcott Woods has a charcoal grill to cook clams you dug at English Camp, the famous Westcott Bay oysters from the farm down the road, the salmon bought at Friday Harbor, or the shrimps sold on the docks at Roche Harbor. You can even season your feast with herbs from the drought-tolerant organic herb-garden.
