About this property

Sisters by the Sound by AvantStay | Beach Access

Located within the Harrington Lagoon community on the eastern shore of Whidbey Island, Sisters by the Sound welcomes your group with breathtaking sunrises, a prime location, and unbeatable beach access. You’ll be ideally situated within a few miles of the historic town of Coupeville, Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve, the Port Townsend ferry, Fort Casey State Park, and Admiralty Head Lighthouse.

This two-story, 1500 square-foot home is just steps away from the community low-bank beach access, which includes the lagoon, lagoon outlet, and the bay. The waters of Harrington Lagoon are calm and protected and is the home of a large purse of Sand Dollars, which can be easily viewed from a paddle board or kayak. The lagoon is the fishing ground of two Bald Eagles and their eaglets that nest nearby. The lagoon outlet is prized for its body surfing currents that feed the lagoon twice daily. And the bay is our Pacific Northwest playground - enjoy fishing from the beach or rowing out to drop a crab pot (no boat provided) just 100 feet from shore. Clams and mussels are plentiful in this area, and the beach is a treasure chest for rock hounding and leisurely strolls.

Your large deck offers waterfront views, a firepit, and an outdoor dining area. Inside, find a fully-equipped kitchen perfect for cooking, baking, and entertaining in a relaxed beach setting. The large dining table was created with together-time in mind and is ready for all your eating, puzzle, and gaming needs. You’ll also have access to a full-size stacked washer and dryer in the pantry/laundry room.

The great room includes reclining furniture, a large smart TV with Bluetooth sound bar, cozy blankets, and fluffy pillows. Reliable Comcast Internet with Wi-Fi coverage throughout the home provides ample gaming for the kids, and teleworking-ease for adults.

The loft is a relaxing separate space for kids of all ages. Also open concept, it includes two bunk bed sets and a twin daybed, a second smart television, a table for board games/puzzles, and recliners to watch the sunrise with your morning coffee.

With two queen beds, two bunk beds (twin-over-fulls), and an additional twin bed, this gorgeous home can sleep 8 comfortably. A sister rental, Sunny by the Sound, is also available and makes wonderful accommodations for up to 16 (8 in each home).

AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we’re at your fingertips!

Discover the allure of Whidbey Island, where tranquility meets captivating landscapes. Embraced by the Puget Sound, this paradise invites group travelers to unwind on sandy shores and explore nature's wonders. Quaint villages add to the island's charm, each with a unique character. And when it’s time for adventure, outdoor enthusiasts can embark on adventures from Deception Pass to Ebey's Landing.

We came for the Practical Magic Festival and had a great time! The house had everything we needed and we loved the fenced yard for the kids and the dogs. The weather was terrible but we were cozy and warm with plenty of games and movies to keep us entertained. The house is very comfortable and easy to enjoy with two families.

The Sisters Gettaway

This place was fabulous, even better than expected. Location was very beautiful! I chose this location because of how great it looked and the name: Sisters on the Shore. My sister came and my cousin and the three of us spent three days just having a really good time. Couldn’t have been better, we will be back 😃

Great getaway spot!

The Ross Sisters house is pure perfection! It’s on the best location, close to Coupville but far enough away that you really feel like you are on your little oasis. The house was perfectly decorated and had so many homely touches that you truly felt welcomed and cozy. We will definitely be coming back!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A great spot for two families looking to enjoy the beauty of Whidbey Island. Harrington Lagoon and the beach provided hours of fun and exploration for our kiddos. Close to Coupeville and its amenities. Highly recommend.

The best island home!

We stay in places all around the world and this had to be one of the best. TRULY a home away from home. Beautiful location, excellent furnishings, cozy, well stocked kitchen, amazing loft space, and an attention to detail we have never seen. From the moment we walked in to when we left it was just a perfect experience. Waking up to the view of the water and sitting outside with our coffee listening to the birds was just divine. Our pup loved the massive fenced yard and the neighborhood where everybody has or loves dogs. Only suggestion would be a king bed vs. queen.

Great accommodations for families with a pet!

Everything about this beach house was perfect! The location is right off of the beach and has a large yard for family gathering that is fenced in (perfect for our dog!). The house itself was very clean and had everything we could need or ask for (thank you for the complimentary pizza in the refrigerator!). The kids loved the house (especially the upstairs bunk area!), and have asked for a repeat stay! We had a tiny issue upon arrival, but called the management team and our call and issue was addressed immediately (I couldn't find the key! Lol). We will definitley be back here; thank you for a wonderful stay!

Wonderful Coupeville A-Frame

What a wonderful stay! We enjoyed the views. We loved walking in the neighborhood around the lagoon. It was close to the Central Whidbey and we used our own e bikes to go to Coupeville and the nearby sculpture park. It was a very dog friendly house. Our lab loved playing fetch in the yard and visiting Double Bluff Beach Dog Park on the south end of the island. We also brought our own kayak and paddle board and dropped them in literally across the street. Our whole family was comfortable in this home. The owners kept a stocked pantry that we were free to use. How nice! Everything you’d expect from Premier Owners.

Remarkable property

This property is impressive! Inside, there are all the amenities you may need. The lighting, beds, furniture and kitchen are all comfortable and homey. Large windows provide a clear view for bird watching over the water. Outside, you are right on the lagoon beach with driftwood, rocks, shells, etc. Being landlubbers, signs for access to the outer beach were confusing and we didn’t get clarification until after dark on our last night. The large yard was just what I was hoping for our old dog. She was VERY safe with the double entrance gate, with plenty of room for exercise for both dogs. Being January, we didn’t get to use much outside, but the deck and yard are stocked and ready!Much Thanks to the folks that make the property available and outstanding!

Wonderful place!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was so cute. Well furnished, comfortable beds, comfy chairs and sofa, all reclining. Quality furnishings and everything you probably forgot to bring! A full pantry/laundry room, indoor games, horseshoe, beach, was just wonderful. A quiet place at the end of a cul de sac with a private beach. We saw eagles, a loon, sea lions and more. The only negative was the extremely loud naval training jets flying overhead for about 3 hours a day during the last three days of our stay. Other than that, we loved it!

Hello we are so glad to hear you loved this home and we do hope you come and stay with us again! We are sorry to hear the Jets were flying 3 days in a row, that is pretty unusual as they usually mix it up. We do have it in our description that the home is in the Jet flight path and we can always give guests the web address to check the schedule a week out during their stay.
