Private Whidbey Island Waterfront Beach Cabin

My son Sam and our dogs Jack and Yogi had a wonderful weekend at the house on Double Bluff Road. The house is comfortable and really well equipped (sharp knives!), the view to the south—all the way to the lights of Seattle's skyline—is 180° and spectacular, and the dune/beach area is fantastic for trying to tire out the dogs. We'll definitely be back.

We spent 2 nights at this home and were very happy with our choice of location. The owner was great to let us squeeze in at the last minute and was very prompt to address our questions upon arrival. Additionally, he accommodated our need to check out a couple hours late. It was a huge blessing to us!

I was extremely happy to find the beds very comfortable, which I do not usually find to be the case while on vacation. I am terribly spoiled with my bed at home...LOL. All three of us wanted to extend our stay as the location and the view could not have suited us better. I would think this home would be fantastic for two couples and 4 kids to be very comfortable! The only downside is that you have to be ready for all the stairs. Had we been travelling with my grandmother, as we have in the past, she never would have been able to make it up them. We did fine.

Our little dog was welcomed to stay with us and she loved it here, too. There is a large yard sort of area that we were able to walk and potty her in without getting her covered in sand. But, she loved her trip down to the water, too. An easy walk down a short path, directly from the house's stairs, takes you right to the water! Then, when you return, there is an outdoor shower to rinse off feet so you don't track sand into the house. Don't forget your slippers...this is a "no shoes allowed" home!

I enjoyed the offering of an assortment of books, got hooked on one that I didn't finish and wound up reserving it through the library on the way home...hahaha. There were also several games to entertain a family. We had the option of watching tv on two TVs that offer things like Hulu or Netflix, but we opted to enjoy the view and quiet time during our short stay. Even during the busiest time of mid-day, there were still only a dozen or so people at the beach and the deck was very quiet, shaded and relaxing.

My one star reduction is simply for the trek up the stairs. Other than that minor item and a couple things not worth mentioning here, we could not have been happier with our stay. I think we would stay here again but not with extended family as our 17yo son is 6'3" and there would not be beds for my parents and him at the same time., which is our typical gang of travellers. For this trip that did not include the extra tall kiddo or dad...it was perfect!

We stayed here with some friends last weekend for a wedding we were going to on Saturday. We are so happy we were able to come on Friday and enjoy the house and the beach and the entire weekend and that we didnt stay in a motel for one night. The view from the porch and entire house is just gorgeous and it is very close to walk down to the beach and explore. Everything you might need is here and house is beautifully decorated! Highly recommend. Our friends kept saying "we need to come back here again!" and "Nice job finding this house".

We had a family get together. Home had a very lovely feel. Extremely clean and comfortable. The kitchen was beautiful and great to cook in. The best part was the pateo and view. We spent hours on it. Owners are very accommodating in case you need something. My advice is read their book! It has dining suggestions and adventure offerings. I didn't read all the way and realized they have kayaks and paddle boards available right on sight to rent. The only caution is the stairs. There are 54. No problem for adults and kids, but hard on older folks or if you have bad knees. We had a very memorable experience and would stay again.

I can't wait to do it again next year
