Beautiful quiet cabin in the woods with an added bonus of a hot tub off the back deck. Loved the peace and quiet plus loved seeing deer, bunnies, and a beautiful horned owl. House had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable.

A horned owl sighting from a hot tub in the woods might be peak cabin living! We're delighted that the peace, wildlife, and comforts all came together, and we'd love your return to the woods.

We had a great time and will absolutely stay there again. The only downside is a slight odor to the water but it’s easily solvable with some bottled water. I drank the water for several days too with no issues.

My partner and I booked this home because of the beautiful ponds, trees, location and hot tub! Upon arrival, we were told the hot tub was unavailable. That was disappointing :/ regardless, we had a beautiful time waking up to wildlife like birds, deers and owls along with the sound of the water fountain. I would definitely return and hopefully the hot tub is working by then!! 3

The place itself is nice and quiet. Sadly there were ants and some type of crumbs in the bed. Also wifi password was incorrect. We had to look on the router for it.

Wonderful Experience

This property is incredible - the house is lovely and comfortable and well-equipped, the gardens are impeccable, and everything was exactly as described. We had a wonderful time and would certainly stay again. Only downsides were minor: the beds aren’t particularly comfortable and we felt the communication with the property manager about expectations during a power outage could have been better. Neither would keep us from recommending this special place to our friends and family - it’s a gem.

TRANQUIL PERFECTION!

This has got to be the best property that we have ever stayed at in the US! The grounds were simply magical and serene. The house was truly perfect in so many ways! We loved the size of the home because it was just the 2 of us. We were able to have family over for lunch and breakfast a couple of times. It is also perfect for a family or 2 couples. This is a place that we will definitely be coming back to for our next visit to the PNW. Everyone at Tara Rentals was also extremely helpful and responsive. This was one of the most relaxing environments that I have experienced and I am so grateful that we found it!

That said the house is gorgeous The view from the master bedroom is lovely and the hot tub is nice at night. Upstairs there is bright so bring your eye masks. It is a lovely property and enjoyed our stay

Excellent Place for Langley Murder Mystery Weekend

My family and I were looking for a VRBO property to stay in during Langley's Murder Mystery Weekend, and Rhythm Waters was exactly what we were looking for. A quiet house in the woods just a few minutes drive from downtown Langley, we were able to take our time driving in for the festivities, then easily get back to look over clues and relax. Didn't have to eat out with a full kitchen available, and the one master bed and two beds in the loft gave the whole family a place to sleep. And while some of us were watching a movie on the large screen tv, others were enjoying a soak in the hot tub. If you're looking for a secluded place less than 10 minutes drive to Langley, you should really consider Rhythm Waters.

Underwhelming

It’s an absolutely lovely property, private and close to Langley. When we arrived there were cleanliness issues: including ants, partially filled single use containers, coffee grounds in all of the drawers, and stains on the walls to name a few things… The property is so lovely, you’d expect it to be a place of refuge, but the beds are small, there are no rugs (just concrete floors), and everything is very shabby - pots, pans, couches, etc. It just wasn’t cozy. These things were not the biggest issue though… The biggest problem with this house is the septic smell from the water.

This is Paul Hand, beautiful garden, setting and cottage

The setting and location are perfect and the cottage itself is very nice. The kitchen supplies are quite limited, however. We had to purchase a sharp, knife, olive oil, and several other things that would be standard. It would be good to assess how the kitchen is stocked And update from time to time.

Quiet beautiful retreat in nature

This is our second time staying in Rhythm Waters. It is a special place. We played lawn games, board games inside and on the patio, watched a movie, enjoyed the hot tub, had a cookout on the grill, roasted s’mores on the fire pit, and took plenty of short trips around the island. We were visited by plenty of birds, and it was totally private once we were in the house. For preparation, do bring some bug spray and citronella candles to ward off mosquitos, and drinking water since the house is on well water.
