The Whidbey Wayfarer-Cabin is Whidbey Island Lodging that's a cute little vacation spot for 2 adults or a small family. Only 45 minutes away from Seattle, and a short ferry ride to Whidbey Island's south end, the cabin is just a few minutes from the Clinton ferry dock. Once there, you'll find that this great Whidbey Island Vacation getaway is just a walk away to a wonderful beach with views of the ferries crossing, private boat ramp access, and a small park & playfield. Bring yourself and your boat or kayak to the island!
The beach is excellent for quiet walks, beachcombing/exploring (driftwood & beach glass), bird/bald eagle & wildlife viewing, and the occasional whale sighting. Abundant fishing, crabbing, & clamming are all possible in season.
Located on a corner lot, the big yard is great for lawn games like bocce or horseshoes. Sit by the firepit and enjoy the giant open sky at night, sipping drinks or roasting marshmallows.
A guest will find easy access to groceries, hardware, restaurants and bar, coffee, and local shops. Just a 10 minute drive up the island is the historic, waterside town of Langley with it's quaint shops, art galleries, excellent eateries, jewelry, and antique stores (city/dining guides available in welcome folder). Also, the island offers many wineries featuring local & regional vintages.
While on Whidbey, a visitor can enjoy many outdoor activities, including, but definitely not limited to: hiking & biking (acres of parks and trails), kayaking (easy in/out from our beach), bird/wildlife watching, running (road or trail) and many off-leash dog areas, including our beach and the beautiful Double-Bluff beach area (skim boarding and tide-pool viewing). But, if weather keeps you indoors, there's shopping, dining, antiquing, live theatre, a movie theater, coffee shops, and bars to keep you dry & happy!

Perfect Weekend Getaway

We had such a wonderful time on Whidbey this past weekend. The cabin was the perfect home away from home. Kelly and Rich made the stay extra special for our pug. We arrived late Friday evening and were pleasantly surprised on how easy the cabin was to find and how cozy and inviting the space was for our little family. The pug had a special bed, doggy bowls, and treats waiting for him. We go to Whidbey every February for the Langly Murder Mystery Weekend. We had fun solving the mystery and winning some prizes. We hope to be back soon when the weather is warmer to enjoy the beautiful beachfront and utilize the lawn chairs and firepit. Thank you Kelly and Rich for this great experience!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, pet owners, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

As you come up to the Wayfarer cabin, it is neat, crisp and, well, cabin-sized. As you open the door , expecting an equally neat but compact space inside, you are wonderfully surprised to fine three discreet rooms within, a bedroom with a delicious mattress, a big bathroom with tub and fluffy towels and perfect vintage tiling and then the livingroom / kitchen area, both delineated from the other and ample with the things you need in each. The livingroom has DVD's , cable, a comfy couch and chair, throws and great magazines. The kitchen is stocked with dishtowels , pots and pans and dishes, ready to go and all very tip-top and clean. The price and the dog friendly policy only add to the wonderful surprise of this sweet place and it's location near a quiet beach can't be beat.Recommended for: Age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Absolutely Perfect! The cabin was just as we had imagined; clean,cozy,comfortable,well furnished and equipped. The queen size bed was very comfortable, nice large bathroom. Although it is not on the beach the street was very quiet and we sat outside and read. Just a short energetic walk to the beach looking east to Mukilteo and the Cascades. We had a wonderful time in this great get-away. Will come again.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

Walked in to this cottage/cabin and immediately felt like my home away from home. It was quiet,clean and dog friendly. Slept like a baby. Found a perfect getaway after the loss of my mother.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

•Just what the doctor ordered. A one night getaway with just my dog & guitar. Spent the day wondering beaches and looking for whales on the cliffs of Langley. I would definitely stay again. Very cozy and comfortable, with everything I needed.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

My girlfriend and I spent a lazy weekend in your cozy cabin and found it to be profoundly accepting of our laziness. While it had all the modern comforts of home, the real luxury was found in the stroll on the nearby beach and the stillness of the evenings. Thanks so much!Did you find this review helpful?
