Lodge at Deception Pass | Trails, Hot Tub, Walk to Cornet Bay
Welcome to Lodge at Deception Pass by AvantStay!
Where forest trails meet coastal waters, Lodge at Deception Pass is your perfect basecamp for a Pacific Northwest adventure. Nestled in a quiet corner of Whidbey Island, this rustic-modern lodge backs directly into Deception Pass State Park’s old-growth forest, with hiking trails beginning just steps from your backyard.
A 10-minute walk takes you to Cornet Bay, where a public boat ramp offers easy access to the area's best fishing spots and boating routes to the San Juan Islands. You’re also just minutes from Anacortes—home to waterfront dining, boutique shops, and ferry service to the San Juans.
Inside, the home blends cozy charm with modern comfort. The open-concept living area invites you to relax by the stone fireplace on plush leather seating or gather for a movie night on the flat-screen TV. The kitchen centers around a striking epoxy island with seating for six—perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails. A dining table for eight, with a bench that can accommodate two more, ensures everyone has a place at the table. The full kitchen comes equipped with stainless steel appliances and everything you need to cook (or just reheat) with ease.
With five bedrooms and sleeping space for up to ten guests, there’s room for everyone to settle in. The primary suite offers a king bed and ensuite with walk-in shower. Two additional guest rooms—one with a queen bed, the other with two twins—provide classic comfort. A bonus room with a sleeper sofa adds flexibility for your group. Across the backyard, a detached guest suite with queen bed offers peaceful seclusion near the firepit.
Step outside to enjoy the lodge’s signature amenities: soak in the private hot tub, roast marshmallows around the firepit with seating for eight, or dine al fresco beneath the towering evergreens. A washer/dryer, outdoor shower, and thoughtful touches throughout complete the experience.
Whether you’re seeking stormy beach walks, scenic hikes, or a quiet escape surrounded by nature, Lodge at Deception Pass is your ideal getaway on Whidbey Island.

Great house in a great location. Friendly neighborhood. In addition, the naval jet training activities were nearby and added another interesting aspect to the family vacation. We definitely enjoyed the stay and found it to he a great place. Will also mention that the fenced backyard worked perfect for our dog.

Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the home, the location, and the friendly neighborhood. It’s great to hear the backyard was a perfect fit for your dog as well!
Sounds like the nearby jet activity made for a unique and memorable experience too. We’d love to host you and your family again anytime!
Great property for kids and dogs. Plenty of room inside for all. Kitchen is setup to handle all levels of cooking. A lot of fun with hot tub and fire pit. My only negative was the pet fee. I think it was a little excessive at over 180.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We're so glad to hear the home was a great fit for both kids and dogs, and that the well-equipped kitchen, hot tub, and fire pit added to the fun. It's always wonderful to know a space works well for the whole family — pets included. We appreciate your note on the pet fee and will pass that along for consideration. We'd love to welcome you and your crew back anytime!
What a fantastic spot to stay. I booked this home for an artist’s retreat, and really appreciated the amount of space we had, both indoor and out, for working in various projects. The house was clean, well stocked, and the location was fabulous. Although this is in a residential neighborhood, the backyard was spacious and private, with plenty of nooks for reading, relaxing and listening to the birds. The hot tub and bonus standalone room outside of the house were really icing on the cake. We explored the nearby trails and beaches and had a wonderful time. The property managers were very responsive to questions/communications. I would definitely recommend this home for a special stay.
