A different kind of Orcas Island experience: private, view-filled, and ready for immediate enjoyment. Set atop a sunny elevated knoll near Obstruction Pass, this 2.78-acre property spans two tax parcels and offers expansive water views, Mount Baker outlooks, and open sky from a peaceful, park-like setting. The land feels tucked away from the world, with mature trees, natural clearings, and a sense of seclusion that makes the views feel even more dramatic. A well-kept yurt and newer platform tent create a move-in-ready off-grid base camp, with a generous deck for outdoor living and a front-row connection to the surrounding landscape. Water is connected and supported by a small solar-powered pump system, with basic utility lines in place for everyday use. Trails and a partially developed road lead toward a potential future building site, allowing the property to evolve from simple retreat to long-term vision. Located near Obstruction Pass State Park, public beaches, the county dock and boat launch at Lieberhaven, Lascaux Cafe, the Orcas Store, and Olga Artworks. For those drawn to privacy, creativity, water views, and a more elemental Orcas lifestyle, this is a rare opportunity with tremendous possibility.
