About this property

Luxury WATERFRONT LODGE on Whidbey Island, Hot Tub, Private Beach, 3 Fireplaces.

Soaring Eagle Lodge on Whidbey Island is a magnificent waterfront retreat nestled on a high bluff above Puget Sound, offering spectacular views of Skagit Bay, snow-capped Mount Baker, and the Cascade mountain range. A hike down the 'adventure trail' leads to our secluded, privately-owned beach.*

Soaring Eagle Lodge stands out among vacation homes on Whidbey Island for its unparalleled sense of privacy and immersion in nature. The forested, park-like grounds are a nature lover’s dream with hundreds of towering evergreens and flowering trees, complemented by vibrant landscaping featuring tulips, daffodils, azaleas, rhododendrons, and more. If privacy is paramount and you seek a genuine escape in nature, Soaring Eagle Lodge is the perfect choice.

Soaring Eagle Lodge caters to guests who appreciate top-tier accommodations and modern conveniences. From deluxe Sleep Number beds and cozy plush robes to ironed pillowcases, heated travertine bathroom floors, and a jetted indoor soaking tub, every detail ensures comfort and luxury. Outside, a premium Bullfrog Spas hot tub invites relaxation amidst the natural beauty. Roaring fireplaces and original artwork inspired by the Pacific Northwest add warmth and character. A large, well-stocked gourmet kitchen delights chefs and home cooks alike, ensuring every culinary desire is met. Throughout your stay, indulge in refinement and elegance at every turn.

The Lodge takes its name from the majestic American bald eagles that soar along the coast of Whidbey Island. We're fortunate to host a bald eagle nest right on our property! During nesting season, our resident eagle pair is either incubating eggs (approximately April 1 to May 7) or caring for chicks eagerly awaiting their next delivery of fish (from May 7 to August 15). This awe-inspiring experience is cherished by many of our guests, who often marvel and comment on it.

With lightning-fast WiFi throughout the home, Soaring Eagle Lodge is an ideal place for remote work. Recognizing the importance of uninterrupted connectivity, we've installed a 48,000-watt Kohler whole-house generator. This ensures that your long-awaited vacation remains uninterrupted by power outages: the generator starts automatically, providing full home power for your safety and peace of mind. It’s a convenience you might not realize is crucial until you need it—a necessity on forested Whidbey Island.

Whidbey Island and the surrounding area offer a wide range of recreational activities, including golf, sailing, fishing, kayaking, whale watching, boat tours, horseback riding, bird watching, hiking, biking, shopping, farmer's markets, and more. Additionally, Whidbey Island is home to a number of excellent wineries, distilleries, breweries, tasting rooms, and hosts many festivals and events throughout the year.

Soaring Eagle Lodge is centrally located for day trips to Port Townsend, Anacortes, Langley, Coupeville, La Conner, Fairhaven/Bellingham, the San Juan Islands, and Victoria, BC. Moreover, the cities of Seattle and Vancouver, BC are only about 90 miles from the Lodge. However you choose to spend your time, you will feel rested and relaxed after your visit to Whidbey Island and Soaring Eagle Lodge.

Our primary goal as hosts is to deliver a unique and unparalleled vacation experience worthy of earning a five-star review from each and every guest. To date, we’ve earned over 200 five-star reviews, and we sincerely hope to earn yours. Check out our Vrbo reviews to hear what recent and past guests have said about their experiences at Soaring Eagle Lodge on Whidbey Island.

Paradise in Washington

The home was beautiful and filled with everything you need to feel pampered yet at home. So many extra touches like a fully stocked gourmet kitchen, games galore, lots of seating, comfy beds and a strong WiFi connection. The outside grounds were amazing and we saw so many eagles, otters, and even deer. The surrounding trees and water views were relaxing and beautiful. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

Exceptional in every way! The attention to detail geared to guest comfort is of the highest level. The kitchen has every spice you could want and a fine selection of cook ware. Want S’mores? Yep, they have special skewers for that. Chilly outside? Plenty of soft blankets to snuggle in. There is a variety of flatware, glasses for all kinds of drinks, baking pans, casserole dishes , etc. The owners want you to really love your stay. You feel like your comfort is their goal. Beds were so comfortable, high quality towels, nothing was skimped. The grounds were pristine. Can’t say enough good things. This peaceful oasis is not to be missed!

Beautiful stay

What a fabulous vacation for our group of 8 including one 9 year old and a toddler. Everything about our stay was easy, relaxing, and beautiful. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed. The kitchen was stocked with essentials. We enjoyed drinking our coffee overlooking the serene water as bald eagles flew from their nests on the property. We will definitely be back and would recommend this to anyone.

Lives up to its name!

This property was absolutely gorgeous!! We had a daily show of bald eagles and even had an orca whale sighting! We had a group of 8 (two toddlers), it fit us comfortably and kept us entertained for the weekend. Along with the incredible view, the backyard was beautifully landscaped (the little fairy scenes are such a fun touch), the fire pit was great and the hot tub was a lovely way to end the day. The kitchen was basically gourmet & had everything you'd need and then some. Lastly, the host as so great - quick & friendly communication. Just a warning that the only way to the private beach is a bit of a workout & not for everyone. Definitely didn't let our toddlers go down it.
Their is only 5 in this picture but we must have saw 20+ this evening.

About the host

Hosted by Ned Towle, Owner, Soaring Eagle Lodge Whidbey LLC

Host profile image
I am originally from Boston, but Hawai’i has been home for over 30 years. Since discovering the beauty and charm of Whidbey Island and Soaring Eagle Lodge, I spend more and more time in the Pacific Northwest. It’s rewarding to share our home with guests who appreciate its unique qualities as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Imagine a quiet, peaceful, rural setting with open spaces, incredible natural beauty and abundant wildlife. I most enjoy the incredible variety of trees, including Douglas Firs, White Pines, Japanese and Leland Cypress, Western Red Cedars, Big Leaf Maples and Madronas; and the amazing variety of raptors, including Bald Eagles, Red-tailed Hawks, Northern Harriers, Cooper’s Hawks, Peregrine Falcons, American Kestrals, Great-horned Owls, Barred Owls and Western Screech Owls.

What makes this property unique

Soaring Eagle Lodge is a unique and truly one-of-a-kind property. The home is large but cozy and was beautifully designed and constructed with the finest materials. The ocean views and park-like grounds are stunning, but what it has that is rare is absolute privacy. Spending time at Soaring Eagle is a special experience that will leave you relaxed, rejuvenated, and wanting to return!
