Fabulous!

My adult siblings and I stay in short term rental properties multiple times a year, in locations all over Washington.We all agreed that this house was fabulous!Definitely THE most well equipped/stocked kitchen. Plus great beds, fluffy towels, small thoughtful touches in the baths, lots of room for being together, as well as areas for smaller groups to gather and talk quietly. Although we didn't spend anytime on the deck or in the yard (not quite warm enough), the looked quite inviting and I'm sure add to the charm of the home.The location gave us easy access to downtown, as well as walking the neighborhoods, and getting out to destinations away from town.We would recommend this place to friends, family and other travelers looking for a comfortable place for a large group to gather.

Great House but use Caution

Overall, the property was clean, location was great for our family event, amenities as described. A few negatives; as mentioned in the remarks, the stairs leading to the upper level are steep. If you have elders or children, keep them on the first floor! We had a slip/fall that put one guest in the hospital! Also, shower floors are slippery. Property manager could be more responsive. These are the only reasons my review gets a 4 instead of 5.

Fantastic Stay in Coupeville

We had 3 families with children stay in this charming house between Christmas and New Years . The host had a nicely decorated Christmas tree in the living room to enhance the atmosphere, with another small one in the dinning area. The house has a feeling of history, but it also feels like a place that makes you feel comfortable. All the bathrooms are updated, all the bedrooms were roomy and very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and the cabinets were labelled making it easy to find utensils or cookware. We loved being located within easy walking distance of downtown, the water, the library, and the park. Everyone felt it was a fantastic stay.

Great gathering place

Everything was well stocked and cleaned. Great location to wander around! We enjoyed all kinds of different cups from the Butler's pantry. The whole group could sit together at the dining table. Depending on where you are sitting on the table, you might have a tight space to walk around someone to go back to the kitchen. There is no communal bathroom on the first floor. There are five bathrooms and you can always go back to your room to use your bathroom. It was actually nice to have your own bathroom with the bedroom where you're staying. The kitchen was open to where folks would hang out.

Short birthday trip to Whidbey

We loved this well preserved historic property. Everyone had lots of fun walking around town and the fire pit was a nice way to relax. It was the perfect place for multiple families with kids who are old enough to need their own rooms. Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. Everything was great from booking to check-in to check-out. The home is absolutely gorgeous. We appreciate historical homes and this was everything it was listed as. We were within walking distance to dining, shopping, and the waterfront. We will be back.

Fall Family Gathering

After three years holding our annual family gathering at Camp Casey, we determined the need to find a different location in Coupeville. We needed to accommodate 25 + friends and family for meals, and sleeping accommodations for up to 12. Kineth House fit the bill beautifully, and within our budget. Proximity in downtown Coupeville facilitated easy access for friends and family staying at the Coupeville Inn to walk to the Kineth House for our potluck gatherings. The bedrooms are amazing. The house reflects the character of the early 1900’s while also providing modern conveniences. Preparing our family meals in the very well equipped kitchen was easily accomplished. Our family includes our two wheelchair bound daughters, as well as a family member with Parkinson’s. While the house doesn’t claim to be “accessible”, we were able to get our daughters settled comfortably on the main level. The master bedroom on the ground level proved ideal for safely accommodating my mobility limited brother in law. As another bonus, the lovely exterior setting combined with some great luck with the weather, afforded us an opportunity to take some great senior pictures of our older disabled daughter. Very pleased with our experience!

Wedding weekend

A group of 11 stayed in the Historic Coupeville Victorian for my niece's wedding in July. We could not have been happier. The location was perfect. The house was beautiful both inside and out. The kitchen was well stocked (the best chef's knife I ever had in a vacation rental) The various common areas made relaxing with a big group very comfortable. And with all the bathrooms it was easy for our family to be ready for all the wedding events. Scott responded quickly whenever I communicated with him. I highly recommend this property

Character and Charm

This was the perfect house for our family! It had lots of room for everyone and yet lots of good spaces to be together. The kitchen had everything we needed which is good for us - we like to cook together. The backyard and BBQ were great. How wonderful to be able to walk into Coupeville. The house had character and charm. It was outfitted with everything we wanted. The joke of the week - how could we have a butler's pantry and not have a butler.

Just perfect!

10 long time friends spent three nights at this beautiful old home that has been thoughtfully updated. We were so impressed with how well stocked the kitchen/bathrooms were. We could not think of any appliance it did not have. The bedrooms upstairs were majestic. Every common room in the home was set up for comfortable visiting. All 10 of us were able to sit in the living room and share stories. I could go on and on but suffice it to say we are returning next year. The Super host Scott lived up to his name as he graciously helped me fix an error I had made in booking it for next year.
