Wonderful Stay in Coupeville

Patsy and Larry were the best hosts I have had through VRBO! The apartment is clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The location, right on Front Street, with a water view, is ideal. I recommend staying here and would definitely stay here again.

Outstanding getaway location and rental

Coupeville is a special small island town that is clearly loved by its residents and businesses. We loved our rental apartment and the location right on the waterfront! The restaurant next door was wonderful and served up delicious Penn Cove mussels. We were treated to a locals holiday parade that was absolutely delightful and festive!

Great place to stay right in the heart of Coupeville! The apartment was very clean and comfortable. We stayed on a Monday/Tuesday and found that some stores are only open Weds-Sun during the off season but the view and the people were lovely!

Best Location

We love staying in this one bedroom unit in Coupeville. The location is ideal and the small balcony with table and a glass of wine and the best view few ever; is hard to duplicate. Short walk to the best restaurants in town; Front St., Grill and oystercatcher. We would definitely stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Patsy and Larry Vail

Host profile image
We bought a home and fledgling photography business in 1991.. we packed up our 2 teenage boys and all our worldly goods and moved from Eastern Washington to Whidbey Island where, for the next 20 years, we ran a portrait photography business out of our home.
In 2011, we retired from photography to open a little Washington wine shop and tasting room in the Magical little Seaside town of Coupeville!! January of 2014 we moved our little shop into a much bigger and better location.. across the street.. on the waterside.. with twice the space and a beautiful outdoor patio! In 2015, we bought the 5000 square foot building our wine shop lives in AND we sold our home and moved ourselves into one of the two beautiful upstairs apartments in our building. We renovated the other apartment and are excited to begin sharing it with family and friends and with YOU - our new friends!! Our oldest son and partner continued on in the photography industry and is the one helping us to manage our beautiful new vacation rental - Vail's View!

Why they chose this property

After running our wine shop in Coupeville for 2 years, meeting the other business owners and residents, the many and diverse visitors... we realized we "fit" in this charming, diverse, and very accepting community of people.. We started looking for a way to live here and we found one! We bought a beautiful, historic building on the waterfront side of downtown Coupeville and we can't wait to share it with you!!

What makes this property unique

There is no other place, no other experience like this one!
