We had a wonderful time at this property. The kitchen had all the basics, even a crock pot. The beds were comfortable, a little soft for our taste but not a reason to complain. The beach access was great and it was close to everything we wanted to see. There is a gas grill not a charcoal grill.

You don't need to bring anything except your personal items and foodand maybe seasonings you like to cook with. There's a propane grill on the deck. The kitchen is fully loaded with all the utensils, pots/pans, cleaning products. Pet friendly with a very large fenced in yard.Quiet neighborhood. 2 min walk to the beach.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.

What a helpful review for future guests. We're glad the kitchen had everything you needed and that the grill, the fenced yard, and the quiet setting all worked well for your group and your pup. Being just a short walk from the beach really is one of the best things about this home, and we're happy you got to take full advantage of it. Thank you for the thoughtful details, and we hope to host you again in the future.

This was the perfect house for our family with three kids. Plenty of space, well-stocked for meal prep, two full bathrooms, fun board games available, and most importantly it was just steps away from the beach with plenty of driftwood for playing and building. We also loved being so close to Coupeville and sites like Fort Casey and Ebey's Landing. We would be happy to return to this same property another time!

Charming House

We loved this place & wished we could have stayed longer. It is decorated so well & there is everything you could need while away from home. We loved the two plush recliners in the living room & the sleep number bed was very comfortable. We brought our small dog so the large fenced yard was great. Also enjoyed our walk on the beach which is just across the street. We definitely plan on staying here again.

Clean & spacious house, nice location

Property is well-furnished, with lots of space for our family of 4. I love the large fenced yard that our dog can be out running about. The neighborhood is very quiet. It was nice to take morning walks around the neighborhood, or down to the beach.

Annual Family crabbing trip

The house was absolutely perfect. The community boat launch was such an unexpected bonus!! Son and girlfriend from North Carolina and Cousin and wife from North Dakota. We always come over to the coast for opening Crabbing weekend. With the exception of the tight roadway with the boat and truck, there is absolutely NOTHING that would have made this weekend any better. If we had just come with a couple cars to enjoy a beautiful 4th on the coast, it would have been spot on!

Thank you, Paula! We're so glad the home was a perfect fit for your crew and that the community boat launch was a pleasant surprise. It sounds like a wonderful way to kick off crabbing season and celebrate the 4th! We appreciate the note about the roadway and will keep that in mind for future guests with trailers. We'd love to welcome you all back anytime!

big space in the middle of Whidbey

Much more space than we needed. Everything was clean and ready for us. Thank you for the pizza in the refrigerator when we arrived. We loved the power recliners. Our pup loved chasing the bunnies. Lots of stuff to do but we did nothing just like we planned. Great place to kick back.

Musselfest Getaway!

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 loved the house and the location. It was a great base camp for two families with kids to spend a few days at the Island. The only bump was that the house was out of coffee filters! Maybe just have the maintenance crew double check for supplies.

Quiet and Serene

My best friend and I along with my 2 shih tzus spent the weekend here. The home was easy to find, located in a quiet neighborhood (probably busier in the summer months) and only a 15-minute drive to downtown Coupeville. The home is clean, comfortable and well-appointment. There was only 2 of us so the home was very spacious with a large fenced yard perfect for our dogs. I have rented at least 8 homes on Whidbey Island and this one of my favorites. What made this trip even more special was the pod of orcas we saw they day we checked out!

property was beautiful surpassed our needs and location was great. We were rudely informed that the dates we booked were not fully available and our trip was cut short. A very big disapointment. The only complaint i had about the house was that i cleaned up dog feces that were not created by my dogs.

Great getaway

We had a fabulous time! The house was super clean and ready for us upon arrival. The beds were comfy, the couch and chairs all reclined (!!) and the kitchen was sup well stocked with cooking pans and utensils. The fully fenced yard was great for our two dogs who played hours of fetch. I loved drinking my morning coffee on the deck watching the herons, eagle and other birds fly around. The best part was the quiet- such a relief from noisy city living. And so many great places to visit near by. Easily found outdoor dining options that allowed dogs and food was delicious. Highly recommend.

Great place for a large group. Very clean. The only thing is the floor was very squeaky when you walk from the master bedroom to the living room. And be mindful the bathroom in the master bedroom. The tub and the shower are separate and the shower are very small. I'm 5'9 and my partner is 6'1 we couldn't hardly move around in the shower. Otherwise we enjoy whidbey Island for the first time.

What a wonderful and comfortable home to stay in. The home was comfortable and clean and very well stocked. I always appreciate a kitchen I can really prepare food in and this one delivered. The bedroom that doubled as an extended living space was perfect for us too. Location was amazing, we loved visiting the lagoon at different tide levels. Stay here, you’ll love it.
