This property was very clean, luxuriously comfortable (great beds), and located on a lovely waterfront. The kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room had everything we could need. We enjoyed breakfast on the deck watching shore birds and the boats. The hosts communicated well and made check in and check out easy. Would definitely stay here again if we got the chance to come back to Whidbey Island.

My husband and I stayed for 3 days in August for our 35th wedding anniversary. The house is exceptionally well appointed; stocked kitchen, nice toiletries and plenty of towels. The house was lovely, very clean, airy and bright and the decor was fantastic with a beachy vibe. The views are incredible, we enjoyed bird watching and saw a few seals as well. A tranquil relaxing getaway.

Our hosts and house were absolutely amazing in regards to communication. The house was Awe-mazing. This house by far was one of the nicest, ABSOLUTELY CLEANEST, most accommodating, magnificent places that we’ve stayed in by far. This is not the Cornet Bay Cabin, This is the Cornet Bay Gem. Y’all have set the standards for which we will judge all other VRBO’s moving forward. Well Done and Thank You.

We found this property at the last minute and we were all delighted with it. The view was great and we all enjoyed the outdoor patio. Also, a nice surprise for us was a public dock was nearby, that allowing fishing/crabbing. The location near the state park allowed us to do some lovely hikes and kayaking. We were also able to find a U-pick blueberry place in the area- fun. The kitchen is good for simple meals. We enjoyed staying here and would go back some day.

We had a lovely weekend on Whidbey Island. The check-in process was exactly as described and took only a few seconds to enter the house. The views are incredible and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. It was an easy drive to several good food options in Oak Harbor. I wish we could have stayed longer!

The property is just as described in the listing and shown in the photos. Comfortable beds and furniture with a well stocked kitchen. The bonus was a well stocked bathroom, extra toothbrushes and shavers in case you forgot yours, very nice touch. Communication was very easy and appreciated. If I could give more stars I would. I have used VRBO since its early days and this is by far one of the best places I have stayed. Thank you Christine & Ross for sharing your beautiful place!

We stayed for a long weekend of exploring the Deception Pass area with our Grandkids. The house was perfect as a home base for us.It had an awesome view of the bay and was well stocked and very well kept. Super easy check in process and the owners even gave us a good tip for a great tide pool location. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!

Amazing rental! Everything was well thought out. The views from every room was worth everything. The recliners facing the bay with windows surrounding were perfect for relaxing and drinking tea and coffee. The binoculars let us watch kingfishers, geese, blue heron, harbor seals and eagles. The bed was so comfortable! The night lights in every room was an added touch. Everything was stocked and ready for us. We will return! 9 days was not enough! The hosts were so easy to deal with and even left a special surprise for my husband’s 70th birthday. Such a kind and thoughtful act. The location is great for exploring north and south.

Beautiful location! Stayed here with my husband, mom and aunt for my sister’s wedding about 10 minutes away. Space was great, beds were comfy, very clean, communication was quick and helpful! Location was close enough to town to be able to go out but still felt secluded if you’re looking for some peace and quiet. Would definitely stay here again.

Wow! This place did not disappoint. Very clean and accomodating with comfortable beds.The views were very impressive with all kinds of wildlife. We saw deer, eagles, many types of birds and geese, seals and bunnies just from looking out the windows. So relaxing when we were not out and about. The location is perfectly situated for visiting all of the popular sights and nearby towns. We did not want to leave this beautiful place! We will be back.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin with us! Location was great for accessing trails and kayaking near Deception State Park, and the little towns on the island. The property is newly renovated, kitchen well-stocked, and very comfortable. Road is not too busy so we had peaceful time reading on the front porch when not out and about.

Our stay was perfect. My husband and I and our adult daughter and her partner stayed for the weekend. We toured around the area and discovered the town of Edison. We can’t wait to go back. The kitchen is very well set up for cooking and the living room and patio are comfortable for lounging. The beds pulled you in and guaranteed a great night sleep. Christine and Ross were very attentive. I couldn’t recommend anything that I’d want changed. We will be back.

We spent a small part of our Spring Break at this getaway to relax. It was probably one of the cleanest rentals we have stayed in. We stayed here in the off season for exploring the Deception Pass area (late March), so it was perfect for avoiding crowds. It was pretty chilly, but the gas fireplace kept us nice and toasty. The two large windows in the living room were perfect for watching the wildlife. We hiked the Goose Rock trail, and we watched the sunset from the Hoypus Point North trailhead (just north of the marina down the road.) There were plenty of amenities, including extra blankets. We recommend the Calico Cupboard in Anacortes for a good breakfast spot.

Although this place did not have as many reviews as some, they were all good ones and so we decided to try it out. We had a wonderful stay! The views from the front room are amazing and we saw eagles, a hawk, the heads of a couple of seals swimming, and lots of birds! It is close to many things, especially the scenic Deception Pass Bridge and park, and only 20 minutes from our whale watching location. The place was immaculate with lots of little touches to help us feel at home, including binoculars to help us better see the wildlife outside our windows. Beds were comfortable too. The hosts were very responsive and check in and out were both easy. Highly recommend!
