Om overnatningsstedet

Lakeside Retreat on Whidbey Island

Goss Lake vacation retreat! - Very nice 2 bedrooms and 1 bath cabin.

Any time of year is better at the lake - fishing in the spring, paddle sports in the summer or storm watching with a coffee and baileys - you always win at the lake!

This is a cabin with rustic charm - it is well appointed, cozy and has everything you need but is not a modern house.

The property also includes a small boathouse for play gear. The private dock allows for water sports and relaxation! Two houses are located on this property - your cabin is closest to the lake.

The lake is non-motorized (electric or paddle power only). It is stocked with rainbow and coastal cutthroat trout.

Beautiful Whidbey Island awaits you with this welcoming dog-friendly vacation home. You are right on Goss Lake, a very peaceful location that's still only a short drive from Clinton, Langley or Freeland. The house is very private - on the lake but set in the forest - ideal for enjoying all that Whidbey has to offer or just relaxing on the water.

The couch in the living room is a queen sofa-bed so the cabin can accommodate 6 guests but it is very cozy with 6 adults. It is better suited to 4 guests or 4 adults + children. We have had lots of rentals with 6 guests with no issues whatsoever but just wanted to mention this.

What's nearby:
It is only a 5 min walk away from the Putney Woods trail system - great for mountain biking, trail running, or hiking. Or it is just a short drive to the ocean with many beaches to explore.

The charming town of Langley is packed with shopping, dining, museums, and art galleries to explore. It also features its own beaches to experience thanks to Seawall Park.

Things to know:
Smart TV - Free WiFi
Roku - Netflix
VCR, CD Player, Nintendo 64
Lots of games, puzzles, books, lake toys
Washer / Dryer
Coffee / Tea / Hot Chocolate
Full kitchen with dishwasher
Canoe, deck chairs, fishing rods
Firepit

Dogs welcome!

There are not any stores near Goss lake - Freeland is the closest area for shopping and picking up essentials. It is only 4 miles and a 10 min drive away - the Payless grocery store has everything and the staff are very helpful and friendly.

*** Also, there is a soft tub at the cabin - we don't mention it in the listing description but yes I know there are pictures of it. The reason we don't mention it is that it is a fickle creature and prone to error. It does work almost all of the time and is super relaxing with an amazing view of the lake but every now and then it does not and it is hard to get someone in to service it these days. If your entire vacation is based on "having" a hot tub and it is a "must" item please book another property with a proper hot tub. We don't want to disappoint anyone in any way - thanks for your time and understanding!

We had a great week on Whidbey Island. The lake house was wonderful. Beautiful view of the lake from the living room and back patio area with direct access to the lake. Paddle boarding was great. The hot tub overlooking the lake was a very nice touch. The location was a plus as well. We were able to easily travel to Langley, Freeland, Coupeville, Ebby Landing and the ferries to Mukilteo and Port Townsend. The public beach next door can get a little noisy, but it is a minor disturbance that does not happen often. We will be back and would love to stay here again.

Lake cabin

We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the cabin. It was darling, clean, well-appointed and homey with a fantastic view. We used the canoe and hot tub and marveled at the two nesting bald eagles, and a golden eagle as well as hummingbirds galore. We also had fires in the evening - the best time!!

This is our 2nd time staying at Brent’s cabin. The location is spectacular — the outside of the cabin facing the lake is stunning with a cute firepit, hot tub, boats, paddle boards, and a great ambience. The house is small and rustic but with all the amenities. If you come in the summer, the public beach next to the house makes it quite loud and not private.

We had a great stay at the cabin. It was too wet and cold to enjoy the lake but the fireplace was toasty and the view was still lovely. We did not get any cell phone reception but the Internet was fast and reliable so we were able to work remotely. The cabin was well-appointed and had everything we needed.

Heavenly Lake Cabin!

We had an amazing stay at this cabin! Jumping off the dock into the lake was a blast, and warming up in the hot tub overlooking the lake afterward was delightful. We loved boating in the canoe and lounging by the fire with a view of the lake was incredibly relaxing. Watching eagles soar over the lake and the trees above us, also added a touch of magic to our trip. Bringing our two sweet doggies made our family vacation complete as we always vacation as a family. The owners are friendly, kind, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout our stay. We highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable family getaway!

quiet, a little deceiving in the picture - the dock is down hill and would be challenging for someone with a mobility issue. the cabin was neat and had all we needed. the hummingbirds were a delight and the bald eagle pair that we saw every day. The scheduling was challenging - there were issues with VRBO and required a lot of communication with the owner. Thank you

The setting of this property is lovely. We enjoyed the patio, the walk down to the lake, and the variety of equipment available for use on the water. These outdoor features made our time by the lake very enjoyable.Inside, however, the home felt dated and in need of some upgrades. The carpet and fixtures showed wear, the kitchen had limited counter and storage space, and the bathroom felt older as well. The hot tub was not working properly during our stay.Communication with the host was excellent leading up to the trip, but after checkout there were concerns raised about the condition of the property that we felt were not accurate. This created an uncomfortable ending to an otherwise pleasant trip.Overall, the outdoor amenities are wonderful, but updates to the interior and better communication would greatly improve the experience.

Hosts, DO NOT RENT TO THESE GUESTS. I arrived at our beloved cabin after they left to find our patio screen door hanging off the hinges with a big rip at the bottom; the guest's response was that the door malfunctioned halfway through their stay. Our hot tub area was littered with gravel, with obvious kick marks from the side path. The bottom of our hot tub was covered in gravel, the water had do much debris and dirt in it that I could barely see through the water. Guests said the gravel "naturally blew in". I've never seen gravel blow in the wind. Dishes were so crusted in that everything had to be rewashed by hand. The entire cabin was in disarray. Cost to replace the door: $500 Cost to replace the hot tub: $600 Extra cleaning time: 6 hours Shameful, disrespectful guests who deliberately wrecked our cabin. Non-existent communication through the entire stay. Not sure what happened with them? I feel like I need to warn other hosts.

We love to travel and love our relaxing, down time! We love Goss lake and Whidey Island - the surrounding area is full of amazing trails, beaches, views, drives, quaint towns, wineries, cideries and even a meadery!

Our family has had many amazing adventures and so many great memories at the cabin! We really hope you will enjoy the lake and and Whidbey Is as much as we do!

Play safe, have an amazing time and thank you!

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

Just a 5 min walk away is a trail entrance to the Putney Woods County Park. More than 600 acres of forest and 15 miles of trail make Putney Woods a destination for horseback riders, hikers and mountain bikers. Owned by Island County and maintained with the help of the Backcountry Horsemen Island County Chapter.

A short drive away is Double Bluff beach - it is a great beach and an off leash dog area with amazing views of Mt Ranier - great spot to watch the sunset!
