A waterfront retreat on the east side of Lopez Island, Washington.

Biking, hiking and kayaking are just a few of the activities you can take part in on quiet, peaceful Lopez Island. Situated in northeast Washington, it is one of three islands that make up the San Juan Islands (Lopez, San Juan Island and Orcas Island). The year-round population falls under 3,000 people, making it the perfect destination for a relaxing, bustle-free getaway.

The island boasts 63 miles of shoreline and has the protected waters of Lopez Sound on its eastern coast. You can easily get around to the other islands via ferry, but with all the area has to offer — like several restaurants, shops, a museum, parks, bays, a bookstore and scenic views — you may not want to leave. And if that’s the case, you’re going to want to stay somewhere where you can really immerse yourself in the island’s natural beauty and green landscapes.

Lopez Island has almost 200 Airbnbs, but we rounded up 10 standouts to consider for your next trip. Whether you want a cabin right on the water, a quaint farmhouse (that’s on an actual working farm) or a huge villa with a pool, there’s an Airbnb that has your name on it. Check out our picks below.

A sunny field house on an actual working farm
Roam the pastures and be amongst the animals when you stay at this unique house on an active farm. Keep in mind that in addition to the cattle, pigs, chickens, dogs, cats and other animals, three families — and often, some interns — live on the farm as well. The house you’ll be staying in has a private yard and south-facing deck, as well as three beds (two queens and one single bed). You’ll find a swimming pond, sauna and Down Dog Yoga Studio nearby.

An ultra-modern house built by a renowned glass artist
If architecture is important to you, then you’ll be obsessed with the exterior of this contemporary home that also has solar panels. It’s located on the south end of Lopez Island and sits on 5 acres of pastoral land with panoramic views to the west of MacKaye Harbor and Salmon Point. Seattle glass artist James Nowak built the home in 2008, and inside you’ll find cement floors and a couple of Nowak’s blown-glass pieces.
