Spyglass Beach House

Stunningly situated on Whidbey Island's gorgeous Bush Point, this waterfront home provides breathtaking northwesterly views of Puget Sound, passing ships, incredible sunsets, and the peaks of the Olympic Mountains across the water. With 23 steps leading from the expansive deck down to 100 feet of private, sandy beach, this home is ideal for beachcombing, whale watching, birding (bald eagles are known to nest nearby), observing seals with their pups, flying kites, fishing, boating, and roaming the adjacent Smugglers Cove Beach. Inside, you'll be treated to such thoughtful updates as all-new towels and hypoallergenic bedding, gel-infused mattress toppers, dense sleeping pillows, new rugs, and all-new small appliances and Green Life healthy cookware, bakeware, and dishware. Outside, enjoy the large deck overlooking the water, a new gas grill, and a balcony off the primary suite.

During the high fishing season in August, you can throw a line directly from your beach, where salmon are known to often hug the shore (please note that the beach can become a bit busy at that time). If you're bringing your boat or kayaks, you'll love the convenient public boat launch just 100 feet away. South Whidbey State Park is only two miles north, featuring almost four miles of hiking trails that wind through an old-growth forest and along the shoreline. Downtown Freeland is five miles east, where you'll find delicious eateries, wineries, and local shops. There are nearby parks, including public gardens and leash-free dog beaches and trails, all within 10 miles of the home. Grab an amazing slice of pie and take a beautiful walk at Greenbank Farm seven miles north, and go back in time while exploring Fort Casey Historical State Park 15 miles north.

Spectacular
This was our 2nd visit here and it doesn’t disappoint. We came more prepared this time as the beach side yard is not fully fenced, so we brought temporary fencing which worked great, to keep our dogs safe. Super dog friendly home, with all the covers for protection of soft furnishings. The views can not be beaten, especially from the master bedroom! The kitchen is extremely well stocked and organized, everywhere is well decorated and designed. We will return again!

Great relaxing time!
It was the perfect place to wind down and take a break! Cooked lots of good food, jigsaw puzzles, dominoes, cribbage, just power lounging. AND long walks on the beach at low tide every day!

Wonderful Home at Bush Point!
Spy glass beach house is in a beautiful spot! The views can not be beat. This is our 10th rental from VRBO over the years and it was one of the cleanest, most well appointed homes. It was nicely furnished, well stocked, kitchen was great! Bedrooms were clean, beds very comfortable and a great master bedroom! This home is the perfect beach home for sure. Would definitely rent again!

Lovely In Every Way!
We have stayed in many vacation homes over the past twenty years, and this home is without question our favorite. Our family has gathered here four times so far, and each time has been magic. Everything about this wonderful house is perfect, from the moment one walks through the door, "Welcome To Our Home" envelopes you, like a warm hug. Immediately you sense this cottage has been put together with a great deal of love. Every room, nook and cranny has been thoughtfully laid out, with no detail overlooked. You will have everything you need for a comfortable stay. Beginning with the kitchen which is well equipped with plenty of dishes, utensils, pots & pans, and good appliances. Your family can cook wonderful meals and enjoy them together at the large dinning table, while enjoying an amazing view of the Sound. The living room is comfortable with a large couch to stretch out on, and watch TV or just hang out. The owners have provided plenty of games to play, and a nice choice of books to read, so you will never be board here. The view is fabulous! From the dinning room, across the living room you can watch the Sound all day. There are giant cargo ships that go by several times a day, as well as tug boats, Naval ships, and a Ferry boat now and then. You never know just what you might see here, the beautiful Sound is always full of activity. This also includes an incredible verity of wildlife, which includes Bald Eagles, Seals, Herons, Otters, Whales, Geese, Gulls, and many others, we even spotted a Comeraunt which is very rare. The beds here are very comfortable, we slept wonderfully each night. There are plenty of blankets to keep you warm on those cold winter nights, and nice soft pillows too. The bedrooms are cozy to say the least, nicely decorated, and inviting. I must save the best for last however, and that is the Master Suite upstairs. It is like walking into a dream. There is a huge king sleigh bed surrounded by floor to ceiling windows. The room is ample with lots of room to move around. The truly wonderful feature is the absolutely fabulous view! We could never get enough of it. You can see all across the Sound with an uninhibited view of the water, the Lighthouse across the Channel, the surrounding landscape, and everything taking place out there. Waking up to that each morning, and seeing it each night as you drift off to sleep, is an experience you will never forget. So perhaps you can imagine why this home is so special, and why we love it as we do. I believe if your family visits here too, you will feel the same. One last thought; Whidbey Island has a lot of fun and interesting activities to check out during your visit. there are several great Wineries, a fun Meadery, and some funky cool shops to poke through. Also, wonderful parks and nature reserves, as well as great public beaches to enjoy. You cannot go wrong here.
