On Whidbey Island's "Gold Coast" sits The Mutiny Bay Beach House (AKA "Mutiny Tides") with spectacular views, a sandy beach, your own boat moored within sight and a well-appointed home offering complete comfort for your vacation. "Mutiny Tides" offers every amenity to make your weekend or longer respite most relaxing and memorable.
Turn off the quiet, country road and meander down the orchard drive to discover a thoughtfully updated home nestled in perennial gardens that love the sea air. Walk the garden path to the front of the house and the breathtaking view of Mutiny Bay will make you ..simply..stop.

THE HOUSE

The home itself is a stunning home offering a luxurious, romantic sojourn for 2 or complete comfort for 8 vacationers. The soothing shoreline colors of the Great Room set the tone for your stay by the beach. The spaciousness is warmed by the stone fireplace and wood stove, nestled close to an ample supply of wood. The 8 foot wrap-around couches accomodate everyone for TV. DVDs, conversation or quiet evenings of music from the library of CDs and reading. The expansive maple flooring creates easy flow and pristine luxury. The children's closet supplies games for all and toys for little ones. The floor to ceiling 30 foot window wall keeps the Bay just a glance away, always revealing a new marine treasure.
Separated by a farmhouse table as well as bar seating for four, the well-stocked kitchen easily handles gourmet meals. You'll find staples, spices, all paper supplies and colorful Fiestaware. The pantry houses cookware and serving pieces to inspire and simplify every meal. The chef can enjoy the ever-changing water view along with the grill master on the deck.
The calming colors of the master bedroom/bath with a fireplace and flat screen TV suggest privacy and comfort. Luxury Egyptian cotton (600 thread count) linens enhance the master (king) as well as the second bedroom (queen) with its full bath across the hall.
The DSL equipped office and a 2nd TV room with a queen sleeper sofa couch lead to the 3rd bath. The 2nd floor bedroom sports bright beach colors and theme, two full sized beds and the childrens library. All decor gently alludes to life by the sea.

THE SETTING
The sweeping deck on the water side of "Mutiny Tides" offers lounges and the utlimate al fresco dining. Morning coffee partners with fog lifting, gradually revealing early fishing boats. The view is framed by a well-established perennial garden and lawn groomed for crochet and bocce ball. The firepit by the beach, ready for driftwood, offers a breathtaking starry view of the bay and the night lights from afar. The beach boasts endless miles for walking, running, or beachcombing the treasures left in tidepools and on sandy shores. Night time exploring with flashlights for sea creatures coming alive is an exciting event.
Abundant marine and wildlife will entertain you through the window wall, on the deck or as you relax on the beach. Discover fishing boats, cargo ships, and evening cruise ships framed by sunsets that lure even long time Mutiny Bay homeowners outside with their cameras. Common wildlife of Bald Eagles, seagulls, orcas, sea otters and seals, rabbits, deer and owls co-exist here. After just one day, the curiously hypnotic feeling of ownership will change ones perspective.

THE ISLAND

Explore the charming towns of Langely and Coupeville, reminiscent of old coastal towns the world over. Enjoy Freeland's small town comfort, the island's myriad shorelines, sustainable island farms and markets and wineries. Enjoy the enticing variety of biking or hiking opportunities, from The Earth Sanctuary to old growth forests. Meander Fort Casey and learn how it protected the entrance to Puget sound in the 1800's. Take a short ferry ride to the famous old town of Port Townsend and Hurricane Ridge on the Olympic Penisula. And then come back home to "Mutiny Tides", a glass of wine and another beautiful sunset.

Even the off-season offers astonishingly sunny days that compete with entertaining winter storms. Relax, sunbathe, comb the beach..a stay at Mutiny tides will become a treasured addition to your own story.

Also available to renters of Mutiny Tides for a week or more is a cozy and cute cottage (additional charge). The cottage has a partial but unstocked kitchen, 2/3 bath, woodburning stove, and double sleeper sofa. Children and teens love their own space.

Stunning Mutiny Bay Beach House-Sandy Beach, Sunsets & Moorage

Year Purchased: 1999

Why the Owner Chose Mutiny Bay

Having lived in Washington State all our lives and spending summer vacations on Whidbey Island and the San Juan Islands, we knew we wanted a place there to retire someday. Our first cabin on Whidbey didn't offer enough room for our needs in retirement.

The Unique Benefits at this Waterfront Home

The peacefulness, the ever-changing sunsets and Olympic Mts, the fabulous sandy beach, the bay activity and the wild life. The quiet "country feel" and slower pace of the island. The fact that we can have sunshine when the rest of Seattle is raining.

 

Owner's Map of Mutiny Bay

We've raised 5 children and hope to retire to where we have our childhood memories of Whidbey Island. We both spent many vacations here before we even knew each other. We love the quiet and the wonderful climate, and all that there is to do here. We also love how convenient it is to Seattle when we want to be in town. Our grandkids love coming to the Island. The climate is always better than Seattle because we are in "the Banana belt".

    • We have had the opportunity to stay at this beach house several times. We go back because we love to be there. We can totally relax when we're there or we can have the children and grand children come and enjoy great "family" time. There is plenty of room/beds for all of us. There are so many different things to do for adults and children. Walk on the beach and search for "treasures." Enjoy the wild life. Relax on the deck while enjoying the incredible views of the water and mountains. Or,if its cold outside, stay inside the beautiful great room, start a fire, watch a movie, play games, or read (movies, games & books are provided). And you still have the great view! The beach house is so well stocked with everything you might want or need. Just bring your clothes, relax, and have a great time! We always do!! Thank you Marlene, for making our visits to your beach house such a wonderful experience!! Debbie & Dave

    • Comment Text: Comment Text: My husband and I have enjoyed several relaxing stays at Mutiny Tides and we look forward to returning. The privacy is wonderful, the view and beach always rejuvenates us and the home is so comfortable and offers absolutely everything we could want. The cleanliness is beyond reproach. The best vacations we've had have been at Mutiny Tides. Last time, in the off-season, we took our children and grandchildren and it was a fantastic time for all of us. The spacious family room allowed us all to be together while enjoying different activities. Yet the bedrooms and baths offered plenty of privacy and comfort for all of us. My grandchildren loved the children's room and the closet of toys. The beach lured us all, night and day. We still talk about watching the cruise ships in the evening. Now, they all want to go back this summer. What a fabulous and completely comfortable and clean home. We always want to go out for dinner but we can never drag ourselves from the house because of the view and the kitchen amenities!

    • Marlene was an ABSOLUTE joy to work with over email/phone! I proposed to my girlfriend on the beach right outside their cabin (maybe 30 steps...) and its ecological milieu was beyond refreshing and stupendous. The cabin itself was 'microbiology lab standards' clean. Upon entering, pleasant neutral colors with a warm ambience from the surrounding décor filled my sense of being. Immediately, one can tell that quality materials were used when considering everything from flooring materials to linens. The pictures do not do this beach cabin justice! The view from their living room/kitchen/deck will allow you to drift asleep in its dreamy magnificence. The owners truly believe in providing the best possible, well-rounded renting experience one can pay for. My family has been around rentals our entire life and this couple provides the COMPLETE package. Do not hesitate to rent this beach cabin as it provides for a great relaxing getaway! Just imagine the pure crisp air right off of the Puget Sound while relaxing on their beautiful huge porch; you’ll then realize that later in life you will either have to buy something similar or return as a valued guest. Marlene and her husband due to their professional experiences, provide that detailed experience that one wishes for with ALL rental experiences! Their location focuses on the beauty, serenity and rural feel that our everyday life can’t provide so enjoy their exquisite beachfront cabin. Allow the beautiful Puget Sound showcasing the Cascade Mountains with Eagles flying majestically in the background and deer roaming the property to engulf your sense of reality; contact Marlene NOW!!!
