Goldeneye Farm

Goldeneye Farm is a 10-acre heritage property located in the quiet village of Olga on Orcas Island, part of the San Juan Archipelago off the coast of Washington State. The beautiful 2447-sq. ft. house has 2-bedrooms plus 2-bathrooms, a large kitchen, dining and living room area, and a vast deck that provides beautiful views of the property. Goldeneye Farm features an heirloom orchard with 100+-year-old apple trees, pear trees, peach trees, plum trees, cherry trees, a large field, as well as a fenced-in, deer-proof garden area with raspberries, blueberries, and grapes. There are two small ponds by the house and a larger one near the lower end of the property, which is adjoined by an alder bog.

Guests are welcome to pick the fruit and berries of the season throughout their stay at Goldeneye Farm. The house also features a separate office and library area with a state-of-the-art printer, and beautiful views of the orchard and ponds. The property is a quiet, yet inspiring place that is ideally suited for those seeking a refuge in which to focus on writing or other creative endeavours.

The property can be rented as a sabbatical home throughout the academic year. If interested, please email Mark Lever (mlever77@gmail.com) for further details.

About Me
I am an environmental microbiologist who investigates microbial controls on the carbon cycle in lake and marine sediments and the underlying Earth's crust. I currently perform research in Switzerland, Denmark, the US, Japan, and at many open-ocean locations. My wife, Rivka Eisner, is a postdoctoral researcher in ethnography who focuses on performance studies, transnational art movements, and contemporary societal change in Southeast Asia, in particular Vietnam. We are based in Zurich, Switzerland, where I am an assistant professor at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich), and Rivka works at the University of Zurich, but we also spend considerable time every year in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. This is where we own an old orchard/farm called "Goldeneye Farm" (www.goldeneyefarm.com), which we use as a writing retreat, and would like to advertise as a sabbatical home from the months of September through May starting in 2019. If you are interested in renting Goldeneye Farm, please email me at mlever77@gmail.com.
