Reviewer Comments:
We had a pleasant stay at Bercot Beach. We traveled with 4 adults and an 11-month-old baby. The set up of this cottage was good for travel with a baby. Baby was able to nap in a pack-n-play in the lower apartment, while adults continued their visits and activities upstairs without sound interruption for the little one. This is a good home base for exploring South Whidbey. The property felt a little dated/rough around the edges, but the set-up was very practical for our stay. It is a bit close to the neighbors, and there was a lot of noise from a family next door in the evenings. The beds in the basement could use new mattresses -- definitely not a comfortable sleep for us. The deck is lovely and looks out over the water. We enjoyed our meals with the lovely view. The apple tree was heavy with fruit during our stay and often dropped apples on the roof - once we got used to it, it didn't bother us but was a bit surprising at first!

Great location. House is a bit tired. Needs new carpet and some other sprucing up. Downstairs is not connected to upstairs and ceilings are very low.

Reviewer Comments:
The location of this property is exceptional! Absolutely a beautiful spot but the house is in need of some major maintenance and work. The northwest is tough on building materials and the age and lack of maintenance is reflective. The floor is sloped, the deck is unstable and the electrical is subpar without grounding throughout the house. Overall a great experience though with no problems.

Reviewer Comments:
Overall a great vacation rental for our multi generational family vacation. plenty of room,the front deck was the perfect place for afternoon cocktails and dinner. We loved being on the water and watching bald eagles flying overhead. The property could use a deep clean: Thorough dusting, washing down of light switches and door frames. cleaning under the beds,stove. A few of the bar chairs and living room coffee table need to have bolts tightened to be stable. Kitchen could use small bowls,replacement frying pans (teflon scrapped and peeling). Attention to these details would be a great asset to this property.

So happy to hear your family had a great vacation! There is nothing like watching bald eagles soaring over head! Nature at it's best! Our properties do get a deep clean at the end of the peak season, which is at the end of September. Our high season is June through September and there is a good cleaning in between each guests. We will contact the owners regarding bowls and frying pans, and thank you for letting us know about bar chairs and living room coffee table! Thank you for your review. We can help you with your next stay on the Island!
A beautiful view!

Reviewer Comments:
This home had a view that was spectacular and the water access made it easy for us to take our inflatable boats out. The location is just a couple minutes off the highway so it's really convenient to go exploring places or to make a quick run to the nearby store for forgotten items! The inside was homey and relaxing. It was nice to have the privacy of two separate sleeping spaces as the downstairs can only be accessed outside. A couple of easy things that could be done to improve one's stay...The shower head is horrific and only sprays one very hard stream of water. Also, there is only one key given for each floor when it seems both parties should be able to have access to the living space on the top floor. We somehow managed to get locked out of the downstairs and someone from Tara Property Management came out to help in just a few minutes which was appreciated! Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this vacation cottage.

This comfy cottage at the water's edge was clean and equipped with all you need for a pleasant stay. We spent most of our time at the property on the deck enjoying water fowl, deer, the changing sky, and the quiet.
