Along the protected waters of Reid Harbor on Stuart Island, this San Juan Islands retreat pairs waterfront ease with a true sense of escape. The 5-acre parcel includes 1/4 ownership in a community dock and waterfront lot, creating straightforward boat access and a natural gateway to the surrounding islands.

Days here unfold on the water—boating, fishing, crabbing, shrimping, and water sports just beyond the harbor. Roche Harbor is a scenic 15-minute boat ride away, with easy access to Canada. Included with the sale: a 2007 Polaris Ranger and a Honda 3500 generator for practical island living.

The primary bedroom features wall A/C and a slider that opens toward the shoreline. A spiral staircase rises to a loft for flexible sleeping or lounging, and the lower level adds another bedroom with its own deck overlooking the lake.
