Overview
Large 4 bedrooms, 3 bath home in heart of Coupeville.
Take a small step back in time in this one of a kind historic home. Built in 1898, this eclectically decorated home is located in beautiful Coupeville, WA just minutes from the Coupeville/ Port Townsend ferry. The open kitchen has ample space and a nice view. The large main level is open providing function and flexible living space. Ground level has one spacious bedroom and a full bathroom (**Note downstairs has claw foot bathtub only**). Upstairs, 3 more spacious bedrooms and a ¾ bath (only shower is located upstairs).
Bring your mountain bikes to tackle Kettles Trail, your kayaks to explore Penn Cove, or your boots to hike Ebey’s Landing and take in some of the best view around. A trip to the gun battery at Fort Casey State Park is a must! A stroll through downtown Coupeville provides antiques, fun gifts, and great restaurants. Enjoy Penn Cove Mussels, fish & chips, and some of the best cinnamon rolls on the island. Walk to the Farmers Market in the summer and select local produce grown in the rich soil of Ebey’s Landing.

Guestbook comments from the owner
This place was great. It was perfect for a large family. The everything was spotless and there were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The location is great for walking downtown. At night, a family of deer gathered in the lawn. We especially enjoyed perusing the library that was filled with books from the era of the house. I would stay here again.

Large and met needs for reunion
We had a family reunion, with 6 adults and four children. During the day, we were joined by other family members living in nearby communities. The home was rustic, but large enough to meet our needs. The house is within a short walk to downtown Coupeville, and a short drive to Oak Harbor, the ferry to Port Townsend, or other destinations. There is a grocery store just a few blocks away. Because we had a large group, we created a large amount of garbage which piled up, but that wouldn't be the case with most groups. We had a child with severe allergies, and there was dog hair that needed to be vacuumed upon our arrival. There was adequate seating for sitting outdoors and watching the kids play. We BBQ'ed a couple of nights, and the grill was fine. All in all, we would rent here again. It is a comfortable house, with no pretensions, that is perfect for what our family had in mind.
Absolutely stunning!
The house was absolutely stunning! Loved the claw foot tubs! The tiny one in the bathroom next to the kitchen is the absolute cutest.
Wonderful Stay
We had a great family gathering. What a charming home. There was plenty of room for everyone. All the comforts from home. This home is walking distance to town. We would recommend this place to others and will likely rent again.
Great stay
Comfortable beds, easy access to Coupeville, and an overall lovely stay
A Charming Comfortable Home In Coupeville
We have just returned from an annual girl friend get-a-way, where we shop, eat and catch up on our year. This year we wanted to enjoy the comforts of a home rather than a hotel room and this house delivered. It was clean and very comfortable and beautifully decorated with antiques. Mimi had thoughtfully provided fresh flowers and flameless candles to add to the ambiance. The kitchen was equipped quite well and the beds were comfortable. The house is large and easy to maneuver around in a wheelchair and there is a ramp to the front door.
Unfortunately the bathroom off the main floor master bedroom will not hold a walker or wheelchair and the other main floor bathroom, while large, is not equipped for a wheelchair user. However, if you can walk a bit with a cane, this house would work perfectly for you.
I would stay again.
