Great time spent on Camano Island. We were able to use the Gulls Nest as a home base while we checked out several beaches. Our stay was also over the 4th of July holiday so there were amazing firework displays seen throughout the bay. A well spent family trip in a cozy, clean, well stocked space. Amazing views too!

This place has everything and is very clean. The view is amazing. The pet area was secure so I didn't worry about my dog finding an escape route. The best part is it's so close to the boat ramp, which we used every day to fish in the bay where we saw pilot whales, orcas and a curious seal. Book this place, you won't be disappointed!

Clean property with a beautiful view. Could use a few more cooking pots and pans with lids. Got use to the two levels in living area, but could be dangerous if you didn't remember to step down. The stairs entering the house were a challenge for us oldies at first, but we did ok. Was thinking the dogs could be contained on the deck while we were sitting out there, but bars were far enough apart that our jack russell could fit through. He escaped once. We kept him on a leash even on the deck after that. Mostly it was a lovely get away for our 54th anniversary. Thank you.

Beautiful views and nice place with no real issues. Staying on the 4th of July weekend the boat launch was extremely busy with noisy traffic most of the day. Along with no fireworks restrictions left us not well rested for a couple of nights.

Do not hesitate booking this house

This house has an amazing view! It is so relaxing from the deck with good weather or inside behind large windows if colder or rainy. Cute house inside and very comfortable. From the deck, we saw amazing sunsets and watched Bald Eagles in trees above back of house.

Lovely stay!

Sweet beach cabin in a quiet neighborhood across the street from the beach. Lovely views of the Saratoga Passage and Whidbey Island. Gorgeous sunset views. Roomy deck with furniture, barbecue and large patio heater, Kitchen was well outfitted and beds super comfy. Owners/hosts were very responsive and kind. Highly recommend! We had some nice walks in the neighborhood and also explored Cama State Beach down the road. Would stay again!

Cute Cabin

We spent the weekend in this cute cabin for a family wedding down the road. It has been nicely updated, though a caution to tall people! It's an old home but has a nice history. The view was perfect watching the sunrise and the boaters in and out of the boat launch.

Gull's Nest

This little cottage was perfect!! Everything was very clean and well-appointed. We loved the layout of the home and the beautiful view from the main room and the deck. The little area in back was just perfect to relieve my dog if we weren't headed out somewhere. The people, coffee, and bakery at The Commons were fantastic. We visited both historical schoolhouses on the island - a highlight! Thanks so much for sharing your magical space!
