About this property

Studio on the water's edge of Penn Cove with hot tub and sauna spa area

The studio is in a separate building from the main house in this little slice of paradise that is a part of Ebeys National Historic Reserve and is on a beach right at the water's edge of Penn Cove. Nature abounds on this unique property, with eagles, hawks, gulls, owls, herons, oyster catchers and so many other birds showing up on the shores. You will often spot harbor seals, and the occasional otter and orca, too. Whether you are looking for a romantic and peaceful escape from city life, or an active few days exploring the numerous state parks, fishing, crabbing, kayaking, boating, antiquing, wine tasting at nearby island wineries, tasting locally produced ales, getting fresh produce from local farms, enjoying the quaint town of Coupeville, there are many options. The studio has a stove and refrigerator, so you are able to prepare light meals. There is an outdoor, under cover picnic area. There is also a cedar hot tub and sauna available for use for an extra daily fee (usually included in quote, but is optional). This property falls into the rain shadow and is south facing, so we often see sunshine when a lot of the Pacific Northwest is under cloud cover or rain. Located a few minutes from the town of Coupeville, and with Oak Harbor a few minutes in the other direction, State parks nearby, this studio located in a rural private enclave right on the water offers something for everyone to enjoy.

Please note that either myself and my husband or a caretaker will almost always be staying in the main house during your stay, so if any issues arise, would be able to address them as soon as is feasible.

For a limited time, we are also offering a basement suite in the main house with a separate private entrance that has a kitchen and its own separate hot tub and firepit area. See VRBO rental # 2989661. The availability is from April 29th, 2026 to June 29th, 2026.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This was a beautiful stay right on the water. We loved the room, the hot tub, and the rocky beach walks. Everything was so nice and clean. My wife and I came to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and the host even gave us some nice flowers and a card. Very responsive to questions and as helpful as could be. Whidbey Island is beautiful and is close to so many great sites. It’s a very quiet and peaceful spot.

Hi Vincent: We really tried to do as much as we could away from the studio area, as this is the time of the year that the garden needs a lot of work. I am sorry it still managed to be an intrusion. We do our best to provide as much privacy as possible for our guests. Wishing you all the best, Debbie

My fiancé and I had a lovely stay at the studio. The space was clean and offered all of our necessities. It was amazing to wake up to beautiful sunrises over the water and walk our pup along the beach. The location was perfect - central to all of our excursions, and the hot tub was the best way to relax after a day of exploring the island.

We really enjoyed the location, the setting, and the hot tub! The space is cozy and perfect for a romantic getaway or location to spend some downtime. Whidbey Island is gorgeous and lots of great places to see. If you wanted to do a lot of cooking, this location may not be ideal because of the size. The host was very attentive and helpful.

About the host

Hosted by Debbie Jackson

Host profile image
My husband John and I moved here in November, 2021 and feel incredibly lucky to call this wonderful property on the water's edge of Penn Cove our home. We have another property we have been renting out in California for over ten years now on VRBO, so are very familiar with the requirements of what makes happy renters. We love to create space that is inviting and comfortable and pleasing to the eye. We look forward to sharing our little slice of heaven with you.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location. No nearby neighbors and right on the water in a reserve. A few minute's drive to towns and shopping and also state parks. Relaxing and calm with a very comfortable interior, it is a wonderful place to unwind from city life.

What makes this property unique

We are close to the water’s edge of Penn Cove. It gives you a close up view of the bird and sea-life that inhabit this beautiful cove.
