About this property
The Lighthouse at 23-Acre Whidbey Estate
A cute 3-level lighthouse-style retreat inside a private 23-acre gated Whidbey Island estate. Sleeps 3 with 2 twin beds and 1 folding mattress.

Welcome to The Lighthouse at El Haven — a charming little lighthouse-style stay inside one of Whidbey Island’s rare private waterfront estates.
This cozy 3-level retreat sleeps up to 3 guests and is especially fun for families with kids. It feels part tiny cottage, part treehouse, part lookout tower — playful, unique, and memorable.
THE LIGHTHOUSE
The first level includes a small living area, kitchenette, and bathroom.
The second level has two twin beds, creating a cozy sleeping area for kids or guests.
The third level is reached by ladder and offers panoramic views from the lighthouse. This top floor is designed as a kids’ play/lookout area — the kind of space children love because it feels like their own secret hideaway.
There is also a children’s playground right beside The Lighthouse, making this one of the most family-friendly stays on the estate.
ESTATE ACCESS
Guests also enjoy access to shared estate amenities:
✔︎ 800 ft private beach access ✔︎ Deep-water dock ✔︎ Beautiful Puget Sound views ✔︎ Tennis court ✔︎ Putting green ✔︎ Fully fenced dog park ✔︎ Mature landscaping and garden paths ✔︎ Expansive lawns and waterfront walking areas
Walk down to the shoreline, explore the grounds, play tennis, practice putting, or let your dog enjoy the fenced dog park.
GOOD TO KNOW
The Lighthouse is small and best for guests who want a unique, cozy, playful stay rather than a large traditional house.
The third-level lookout/play area is accessed by ladder and is best suited for children who can climb safely with adult supervision.
Other houses, operational areas, and storage spaces may be restricted unless the full estate is booked.
The Lighthouse is a rare little Whidbey Island stay — cute, imaginative, and perfect for kids who want a treehouse-like adventure inside a beautiful private waterfront estate.
