ABOUT WHIDBEY ISLAND
The atmosphere on Whidbey is what might be called iconic or laid-back. Accommodations range from the prestigious to the rustic. Located in the "rain-shadow" of the Olympic Mountains just to the West, Whidbey receives just half the annual rainfall as Seattle.
The surrounding towns of Oak Harbor, Coupeville, Anacortes and LaConner afford you many opportunities for attractions and dining. Throughout the year, enjoy a variety of festivals - art, music, tulip and a pig roast. This year, 2022, there will be a celebration to commemorate the 100-year anniversay of the building of Deception Pass Bridge
The North end of the island is home to the US Naval Air Station at Oak Harbor, the largest town on the island. Occasionally, you may hear the distant noise of jets flying overhead.
There are plenty of shops and services. Driving through the center of the island reveals bucolic pastureland, forests and the very present rocky shores on both sides of the road. Near the south end of the island, the pace slows, windy roads lead to galleries, shops and antique stores.
Everywhere on Whidbey are scenes out of a watercolor painting. Vibrant colors, high vantage points, beaches, friendly people and a slower, more relaxed pace. Local businesses promote "do nothing here" are much as they do all the activities.

Lovely home right across from the water with absolutely everything you need. The ping pong table in the garage was a huge hit with the kids. Very quiet area. We were very comfortable in our home away from home.
Very pleasant, clean home. Easy to find and access. Near many recreational opportunities. The ceiling lamp in the master bedroom flickers.
Beautiful and quiet
Location is sooo lovely! Ping pong table and game room is so much fun! Will try to stay here again!
Host and housekeeper were both very rude to us upon check in. We were early and after we moved in the housekeeper returned and told us to pack our belonging and get out until 5 pm. She called the host and she was even more rude! Telling me to vacate the property immediately and do not return until 5 pm or later!! The property had already been cleaned. The housekeeper just came back for her supplies. All they needed to say was can I retreive my supplies? There was absolutely no reason to treat us so rudely!!!!
Beautiful views. Great hiking area.
This property has a lot to offer in terms of the solitude of Cornet Bay, comfortable bedding and furnishings, a generously equipped kitchen and a great kid-friendly play space in the garage. I appreciated the unique touches in the kitchen to include the local spices. My only minor criticism is the multiple spider encounters (kids were kind of freaked out) and I dont think the tv receives ESPN (granted we only turned it on once.) Really an ideal PNW getaway!
Wonderful stay! Great location by Deception Pass Park and an easy drive into Anacortes or Oak Harbor. Very clean and well kept cabin. The kids loved the ping pong table in the garage and the bunk beds which had rails. We saw seals in the bay from the front yard. Comfy beds and a nice layout. Very impressed with the small details. Lots of nightlights, pockets on the beds for the kiddos, hangers in the closets. Great stay!
We had a wonderful time. The view of Cornet Bay was very soothing. Loved the big nice deck! The washer and dryer was a lifesaver with a “little one”. The mattresses provided great sleep! Slept with windows and doors open. It is a nice place to stay. You won’t be disappointed.
We loved the location. We took a trip to Whidbey and went shrimping in the San Juan Islands. The house has a great location. Close to the Marina and public docks.
We had an amazing time the house is beautiful and well equipped, the area was perfect. We did have some electrical outlets (more than half) that were not working it took a couple of tries to contact someone but eventually the owner come over to look into the problem. Unfortunately he could not get anyone to come out to the island during our stay. He provided extension cords so we could use our electrical equipment in the bathrooms.
We really appreciated the Christmas tree to make the vrbo festive while we were away from home over the holidays!
The house was a good size for the 6 of us. The sheets and towels were high quality and the beds were comfortable. I slept great!
Neighborhood was great. With 3 kids under 9 we were afraid to make any noise so left the cabin often for the kids to play.
Fantastic location, right by the boat launch, very clean, and fast (100+ Mbps) internet in the main area. Lovely place.
Had a fantastic time with my family here. The place feature beautiful waterfront view and great amenities. 100% would be back.
Beautiful area and well-equipped, clean and comfortable place. We would stay here again!
My family of five (mom, dad, 3 young adults) loved this home. It was clean, nicely decorated and furnished, and in a fabulous, peaceful location on Cornet Bay. The location was several miles from the towns on Whidbey Island, but surrounded by the various parts of the Deception Pass State Park, which has many opportunities for hiking and other activities. We enjoyed hiking along the paths that bordered the water (and up to the bridge) and kayaking at Bombay Bay. (We opted for the rental instead of the tour; an hour was plenty and even though Deception Pass has dangerous currents, there is plenty of bay and other safer waters to enjoy the scenery from on your own). We really enjoyed grilling and hanging out on the deck to watch the deer that came to graze in the yard behind the house and the seal that came through the bay every evening. The bay is prettier than what is captured in the vrbo photo; there is a small marina a few hundred yards down the road. Also, if you walk out onto the nearby dock you can see Mt. Baker. We also enjoyed the ping pong table in the garage. The jets that flew over the property frequently were high enough that the noise wouldn't bother most people, and we loved seeing them. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen well-stocked. Just a peaceful, thoroughly enjoyable getaway. Would love to come back some time.
The house was perfect for our group during our first stay in the San Juans. We explored the Deception State Park area and other islands via ferry and kayak. The house had everything we needed and we felt right at home. Thanks for a great vacation!
This is a great spot to call home while you explore Whidbey and up into the San Juans. Close enough to any amenities you need whilst also being away from it all. The best of both!
Awesome place to stay. Would be excellent for a family with kiddos as well as people who just need a get away. We had an awesome time relaxing at the bay.
Nice, quiet location near Deception Pass state park which is why we chose this property. Before I arrived in Washington, I had asked a question online and got a call from a very nice woman – – either the property manager or perhaps the owner? She was lovely, and honest when I asked her about how quiet the property was and my concern about planes flying overhead. Upon check in, it was apparent the property was very clean, and perfect for my just friend and me. The only thing we were a bit disappointed by was a lack of trees, bushes and other landscaping. It looked like the property had just been cleared of most all landscaping, Leaving a large defined area of dirt around the house. The lack of landscaping just made us feel a bit exposed, especially as the house is right on the road…so lounging on the deck was not something we felt comfortable with. Otherwise, everything was as advertised, and we were happy with our selection. Thanks to the female property manager who answered the phone on Saturday morning to confirm I had the check out acquirements correct!
This was a great and convenient location and everything went well except the garage had a STRONG pet pee smell. It was disappointing not to play ping pong or check out garage. We open door and once hit with the smell quickly closed it. Otherwise the house was great and I would recommend it!
