Do you want
to combine the convenience of downtown Friday Harbor and the relaxation
of country life? Consider spending your vacation at 1870 Lampard Road.
We are on a narrow, dead-end, country road one mile from the Town’s
boundary. We are less than two miles from downtown and the ferry landing
and less than 1.5 miles from the airport. View a street map of the
region here.
We are on 5 acres
and surrounded by large parcels. We look over the farmlands of San
Juan Valley on to the Straits of Juan de Fuca and the Olympic Mountains.
This view has been declared by a citizen committee to be the second
best in all of San Juan County.
If
you choose to walk on the ferry or if you fly into the nearby Friday
Harbor Airport, you can walk, or taxi to the house. Otherwise, there
is ample parking for up to three cars. Once there, you will enjoy
the quiet and solitude of Lampard Road.
You will
hear a neighbor’s lambs bleating every evening and the ravens
every day. Because of the large number of nearby lakes, you will
also hear ducks, geese, and other water fowl. On a clear morning,
snow covered Mount Olympus greets you as you awake. Other days you
will watch the fog slide across the valley floor and slowly evaporate.
Walk, bike, or
drive back to town for groceries, food to go, a DVD or for shopping.
Later, sit on the deck while barbequing dinner and watching the sun
set over Mount Dallas. Harvest fruit and vegetables from the garden
for dinner and dessert. That evening enjoy the night sky and, and
appreciate our Canadian neighbors while observing the reflected lights
from Victoria.
After
a very quiet night’s rest, explore all the recreational activities
that San Juan Island has to offer. Kayaking, Whale Watching, Native
American art, our two National Parks, one State Park, and several
County and Town parks.
Our
home and property are very child-friendly. Your children are invited
to explore the tree-climbing tree, our toddler's swing, our bucking
bronco, and our tricycle. The very light traffic at the end of Lampard
Road ensures that you and your children will be safe if you bike
or walk on the road.
You and your
family will leave refreshed and revitalized by this pastoral setting.
We have tried to make the contractual part of this as simple as
possible. You can review our expectations here.
Please contact us with any questions you might have. We hope to
hear from you!
