Everything you need and close to everything!

Thoughtful touches made our stay very nice. From the pizza making kit, tote bag and sunglasses to the baby equipment, second kitchen and fenced yard for pets we were wanting for nothing. Awesome to have a bathroom for every sleeping space and especially the air conditioned rooms. Close to favorite spots in Langley, Freeland and Coupeville.

Comfortable family friendly home

We had a long weekend on Whidbey Island and it was lovely. The house is very comfortable, especially the memory foam beds. Clean and spacious. We really appreciated the kids toys and kids dishes/ high chair etc. The house is located on a safe dead end nice street and very close to the Double Bluff beach

Beautiful Home

We lost a family member recently so we needed a place to stay while we made arrangements and secured his home. This home was perfect! Such a beautiful view and equipped with everything. Plenty of space for everyone and we loved seeing the deer in the yard. We will definitely book again when the weather is better.

Wonderful Vacation Home

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: We stayed in this lovely home for two weeks with our adult children. The downstairs suite gave our family members some privacy while the upstairs was a great place for family gathering. The decks were wonderful - always a sunny or shady spot to sit. It was convenient to grocery store, beaches and exploration on Whidbey. Washer-Dryer helpful for long stay. Great beach items provided - coolers, beach towels, toys for younger children. The fenced back yard was great for our son's small dog to play safely. Quiet street and location. Great views from front deck. Fireplace downstairs and gas fireplace upstairs added coziness.

Super Relaxing Stay

We had the best vacation we’ve ever had. Relaxing on the front deck with a great view just chatting and laughing. Cooking big meals and exploring the area, heavenly.

Great location

On Whidbey for a family wedding and had family traveling from all over to attend. The house was amazing and so well stocked. All our needs were met! Great size and perfect for visiting and privacy if warranted. Highly recommend!!!

Pretty View

This is an adorable place to stay—pretty view of the water from the front deck, interior is newly remodeled and very clean, with several nice amenities, including a high chair and play pen we used for our grandson. It was very hot (given the heat wave that weekend), but they provided fans for us and we are happy to know they are installing air conditioning soon, so that will be a plus for future guests!
