About this property
Spectacular Views - North Whidbey
Enjoy sweeping water and mountain views from this immaculate, duplex home. This 1,550 s.f., one-bedroom apartment is fully-furnished with a eat-in kitchen, living room, dining room and office and study.
The house sits on a hill that gently rolls down to the water. The garden-level, lower unit is self-contained and opens up to a covered patio and to the lush, landscaped lawn overlooking Dugualla Bay. It's a magical feeling to sit out in the back, shaded by ornamental trees, blueberry bushes and blooming fuchsias, to watch the ever-changing tides, snow-capped mountains and the sun or moon make it's way across the horizon.
The house is conveniently-located in a quiet neighborhood five blocks from the beach and minutes to downtown Oak Harbor. It is a short drive to restaurants, shopping and other amenities, yet feels worlds away. It is well-appointed and a convenient launching pad for exploring Whidbey Island, Deception Pass, Anacortes and the San Juan Islands.
There is a queen, memory foam bed in the bedroom, and a twin bed in the living room. There is also a fold-down couch in the study that sleeps two more. There is wi-fi, a 40" TV with an Amazon Fire Stick for streaming movies, a jetted tub, microwave and toaster ovens, a washer/dryer and, a large desk to write your next novel. The kitchen is stocked with cooking utensils, and linens and towels are provided.

The place was clean, quiet, and very peaceful. The views from the patio are incredible. I did not have to go hiking to find a spectacular view the photos don’t do it justice.
We loved our stay at Oak Harbor! It had stunning views and was close to a lot of places we were excited to see! The home setup was a bit unique, but exactly as described. It can be a bit awkward using the restroom because the sinks are in the bedroom. The owner has done a great job at providing essential amenities for guest use. We would definitely consider staying here again!
One of the best places I’ve ever booked. Views were fantastic. Julie was there to help. She let me eat her pears. Everything was spotless. Lots and lots of room. Bed was better than mine at home. A
Fantastic view to watch the tide go in and out revealing sandbars from the river. Fun to have planes coming into the air base fly right over (during the day only). Otherwise, very quiet at night. Property was very clean and comfortable.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Listing accuracy
Property was clean, spacious and well appointed, with beautiful view. Access was challenging and not appropriate for anyone with mobility issues. The access path from the driveway was steep, curved and difficult to navigate with luggage, boxes, etc. An outer railing would be very helpful.

This home was very clean, quiet, and it had a gorgeous view of the water. The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because of the kitchen stove. There were only 2 burners and ann electric grill, and those did not work very well. Other than that. The home wa lovely.
We had an extended stay at this accommodation and it was likely the best choice we could have made for a peaceful, beautiful experience on Whidbey Island. The property is gorgeous and well-maintained with many colorful trees and flowers, with wandering deer and happy hummingbirds, and the bay views are awesome. The kitchen is well-appointed to prepare and cook meals and there is a charcoal grill to use outside, sit on the porch and enjoy dinner with the bay views. All rooms have comfortable furniture and the master bed is very cozy. The host responds faster than any host I have met before and she is very calm and pleasant; she is thoughtful with how she has decorated this space with colorful, fun artwork. We really appreciated the little touches such as providing pamphlets for things to do in the area, and laundry detergent pods and spices to get us going when we first got there. Many thanks to our host for a wonderful experience!
I rented this VRBO for two family members and a dog for two nights. The location was very convenient for a get together for nearby relatives. The VRBO is located below the owner's house and is much more spacious than we expected. The kitchen is very nice and well-stocked. The bedroom is large with a comfortable bed.
A daybed is located in the living room. The view is wonderful and there is a nearby beach. It is a short drive to Oak Harbor for shopping and restaurants. The only comment is that the day bed may not work for taller people. Other than that one comment, the stay was very enjoyable.
Wonderful location - the sunrises were stupendous.....and every day had the deer coming through to take a meal or two off the apple and pear trees - we even had an albino little boy deer in the group.
We had coffee every morning on the patio and there was a great setup to WFH for those of you who may need to work like I did. The kitchen is supplied with nice pots/pans/utensils - I've learned to bring my own stuff from home, but here I would not have needed to. There is no oven, but the toaster oven worked just fine.
The house was extremely clean - the cleanest VRBO we've ever rented.
My only 'complaint' - and really, not that big a deal because we were alone at the property for the majority of the time - but when the owner or her family members were in residence, you can definitely hear them upstairs.
The views can not be beat. My best friend and I had an amazing, relaxing stay. The house is between Deception Pass and Oak Harbor. Easy access to all areas of the island. Would definitely stay again.
Very clean, well-appointed unit! Everything was very modern and high quality. We prefer to cook rather than eat out and the kitchen was easy to work in. The stove had a Jen-air-like vent that vented to the outside and kept the kitchen clean-smelling. There is a Keurig and a Mister Coffee, so we had a choice. Being a Starbuck's fan, my husband used the Mister Coffiee every morning. The smell of the coffee cabinet smelled like my grandmother's coffee cabinet...boy, that that bring back happy memories! The bed was cushy but firm, which is crucial for me and my husband. The tub has jacuzzi jets and was a treat to use after a long travel day. We are used to providing our own sundries including laundry detergent, plastic wrap, etc., but the unit had everything! The view is amazing from the house! Julie is very easy to work with. This is truly a vacation home!
This listing was exactly as advertised, only better. Very clean and well appointed. The views really can't be captured on camera -- much better in person. Extremely close to Deception Pass.
We enjoyed our serenity in the front garden, watching the deer eat the apples from the nearby trees. The house was clean, comfortable and cute. Thank you Julie for sharing your property.
We LOVED our stay at Julie's place. The view is amazing, as are the daily visits from birds, deer, rabbits, and other friendly visitors. The space itself is well equipped and very cozy. Great kitchen with everything we needed for cooking at "home" and then some. Thank you for your hospitality!
We are so happy with the location of this rental, The views in this area were fantastic. Julie our host was always available, our pets were happy. The house itself was spacious and very clean. Cannot day enough about how fortunate we were to stay in this vacation rental.
My stay here was absolutely great! The back patio, yard and view were probably my favorite things about this place. Very spacious and clean. You can tell Julie puts time into decorating and thinking of what her guests will need to make their stay more enjoyable. I wish I could have spent more time here!!
My husband and I and our dog thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay here. Nice details throughout, beautifully decorated. And the view! We spent many an hour sipping coffee and sitting outside just enjoying the peace and quiet and the expansive view of the bay.
Perfect place when visiting Ft Casey and Coupeville
This place is spacious and very clean. It is a walking distance to the beach and a nearby town where there's plenty of places to eat. I also like that the neighborhood is quiet. We'll definitely consider staying here again, next time we are in town.
Spent a few days in Oak Harbor for a quick getaway. The property is in a beautiful location with a fantastic view of the water. Super clean, great amenities, would highly recommend!
This property is so charming. The house had everything we needed and accommodated our family of 5 very comfortably for 2.5 days. Quiet neighborhood with such beautiful views, we loved it! Julie was very sweet to us and invited us to have as much fruit as we wanted from her fruit trees. What a fun experience! We would love to stay here again when we visit Whidbey Island.

About the host
Hosted by Julie Chan
I have visited the island many times as a child and now as an adult. I have fond memories of summers camping under the tall fir trees and clam-digging on the beach. I look forward to spending more time on the Island.
Why they chose this property
I bought this house as my vacation home for its breathtaking views and proximity to Seattle. I visit as often as I can. There are two units in this house. I occupy the upper unit, and make the lower unit available on VRBO.
What makes this property unique
Only a 90-minute drive from Seattle. the house is quiet, private and spacious, yet close to both natural beauty and the amenities of Oak Harbor. Escape for the weekend, or stay longer to relax, unwind and refresh.
