We had a great stay. The owner lives next to the home and we enjoyed watching them take their little pack outside. There were also a lot of deer and bunnies. The place was really comfortable and we will be back.
We had a great time staying here with our pets. It's a very quiet place and we enjoyed the freedom that the kitchenette offers as it is well supplied. The view of the water from the big window is amazing during sunset. Also really close to town!
Wonderful place to stay, and absolutely great hosts! My husband and I have stayed here two years in a row now for the Musselfest. Love it, and will stay again.
Lovejoy cottage is a clean, comfortable getaway with a great view of the water and local wildlife. Susan was extremely accommodating and helpful during our stay.
I highly recommend the LoveJoy Cottage!! We really enjoyed our stay. The host was great, check in and out was a breeze. The cottage is in a great location. It had everything we needed for the perfect weekend getaway. The cottage was very clean, and really neat decorations throughout. You can tell that the owners have put a lot of "love and effort" into the place, and it shows. The bed was super comfy, plenty of hot water, lot's of nice little touches like plenty of tea, coffee, creamers, things to drink, etc. Tons of movies to watch once you are "in for the night". We enjoyed watching all the deer that strolled around the grounds. It was Musselfest weekend and we really enjoyed the festival as well. I highly recommend this location, you will not be disappointed!!
Great little cozy place to stay. Susan was very gracious and accommodating. Lots of information in a binder along with a park pass (needed if you intend to visit any of the parks).
The host house is right beside it but still feels private. The bathroom/kitchen sink are same which is a little odd but it’s a historical house after all.

About the host
Hosted by Susan Upchurch
We spent most of our lives in Sonoma County, CA - but a road trip to help friends move led to discovering beautiful Whidbey Island and historic Coupeville. We immediately began a search for our future retirement location, and within 3 months found the perfect spot. Over the next decade plus, we rented the main house and stayed in the cottage while we finished our careers…finally making a permanent move in 2021. We love living in this friendly small town in an incredibly beautiful setting.
Why they chose this property
Living so close to the water is a dream come true. We are a short 2 blocks from the water in a quiet neighborhood…many deer and rabbits call our yard home. The community is idyllic, and the natural beauty astounding no matter the weather…so many amazing parks and hiking trails are available, and we take advantage of them all.
What makes this property unique
The home and cottage are both circa 1900. Completely renovated in the 90s, the cottage is filled with historic photos of the area and antiques. Our home is a work in progress, but the cottage is comfortable and up to date. We love our pets, with 5 small rescue dogs and a kitty…they are often in the yard during the day, so communication is important if you bring your fur baby.
