The power was down yesterday, but i think we had it turned back on. The gas tank for the fire table on the front deck is out of gas, or it just didn't work, otherwise everything was great. We tried to wash the towels and one load of sheets. Thank you so much for sharing the wonderful vacation opportunity. Naybe we can book another time. We lived the sun rises

Wonderful home on Whidbey!

Our family had a wonderful time staying in this little treasure. Watching the ferries, kayaking on the water, making s’mores in the fire pit and just enjoying the view (even had a bald eagle sitting in the front yard on the driftwood!) created a great family vacation. Host could not have been nicer! Highly recommend.

Whidbey Wonder on Whidbey Island exceeded every expectation!The location is unbeatable. Waking up to the water view from the balcony in the casita, plus ending the day by the fire pit was amazing. The outdoor living space was clearly designed for big groups. The fire pit area is perfect for roasting s’mores, and watching the sunset over the water.One of the standouts were the kayaks. Having direct access to the water made it so easy. We were able to paddle out in the mornings when the water was calm, explore the shoreline, and fully immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of Whidbey Island. The hot tub was another highlight. After a day of exploring, hiking, or kayaking, soaking in the private hot tub while overlooking the water was absolute perfection. It was clean, well-maintained, and positioned to take advantage of the views. This is exactly what you hope for when booking a Pacific Northwest waterfront rental.Last - The private casita truly sets this rental apart. The separate space provides privacy, making it ideal for extended family, in-laws, or another couple. The casita’s balcony was a favorite spot for morning coffee, It felt like having a boutique hotel suite tucked into the property.

This house worked well for our extended family (ages 3-92!). Nice and clean. Well stocked kitchen. We used the hot tub, the 3 kayaks and some of the yard games. Having the separate living space (apt.) allowed for easy naps for the toddler. There were issues with the doors to that unit, which is why we’re not giving it a 5 stars rating.
We love the easy beach access!
We enjoyed watching the ferries come and go.  It was noisy sometimes.

Great house on the water, close to ferry and Langley. The owners were great hosts, the home was beautifully decorated , very comfortable, dog friendly with plenty of outdoor space . There is a gas fire pit on the deck, a wood fire pit by the water and a large table on the back deck to have dinner. It also has a hot tub, volleyball net and kayaks. We liked it so much that we will consider going back for another family vacation.

Beautiful waterfront cottage

We truly enjoyed our stay here and found the house very well-stocked with everything we needed. Beds were comfortable, the hot tub was a lovely perk, and the views and waterfront access are fantastic. Even though it's directly across from the ferry dock, the noise and traffic wasn't an issue in Dec/Jan when we were there. One note is that if you're traveling with anything close to the listed maximum people in the listing, you may find the floor space of the home a bit tight. The kitchen is well-stocked but not large.

Host profile image
I purchased this home during Covid, it was my first of now 10 properties on the island that I now manage!

Why they chose this property

I love being on the water and watching the ferries come and go, the sunrises are unlike anything you've ever seen before.

What makes this property unique

A huge front yard with the beach fire pit and firewood is incredible all year round. Guests love the private studio apartment above the garage.
