Mid-Century Modern Waterfront on Private Beach, Whidbey Island, over 100 reviews
Oak Harbor, Washington
About this rental
This spacious two-story walk out waterfront home is situated on over 10 acres of private beach-front property with views of both the Cascade and the Olympic mountains. Extensive remodel brings all the modern updates without losing the vintage details. There is no need to wait in long ferry lines with this house. It’s conveniently located on the north end of Whidbey Island accessible by ferry OR the Deception Pass Bridge. A huge plus if you don’t want to rely on the ferry system.
This 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom home sleeps 10 comfortably. The master bedroom on the main floor has a king bed and its own full bathroom. The other main floor bedroom has a queen bed and a separate full bathroom. There are two bedrooms in the light-filled basement. One has a queen bed and the other has two bunk beds (sleeps 4 kids). The large deck off the main floor offers plenty of space for outdoor dining and recreation. The basement opens right up to the large backyard which includes a picnic table, fire pit for campfires and smores, horseshoe pits, a 2-person hammock, and a staircase right down to the private beach. A kayak room houses every size imaginable of beach walking boots and towels for your convenience. Two individual kayaks and one large canoe provide hours of fun on the water. If you have a boat, bring it! We have plenty of room for a trailer in the driveway and a public boat launch is located a mere half mile down the beach from us. There's lots of great fishing and crabbing just in front of the house.
The kitchen is equipped with everything to make the most delicious gourmet dinner and a large outdoor grill stands ready for your BBQ needs. (Don't forget you can dig for fresh clams on the beach in front of the house. Seasonal permits are available in town.) The town of Oak Harbor is 10 minutes away and offers shopping, dining, and a weekly farmer’s market. The quaint town of Coupeville is a 20 minute drive and Deception Pass Bridge, with its spectacular views and hiking trails, is also a 20 minute drive. If a day-trip to the San Juan’s is of interest, the Anacortes Ferry is approximately 40 minutes by car. Park for the day, walk on the ferry, and be in the islands in under an hour. The perfect day trip!
Our cozy home, with its original 1970’s retro fireplace, is a perfect place to enjoy every season. You can’t help but unwind while watching the whales, Great Blue Heron, Bald Eagles, otters and seals from every room of this open and light filled spot. It’s ideal for your next vacation or holiday!
Modern conveniences including two flat screen TV’s with cable, high speed internet access, washer and dryer, and a large selection of games and books round out the offerings in this home. Note: while this is a pet-free home, our family dog will occasionally visit. If you have extreme pet allergies, please be aware.

The views are unbeatable. The home is older but well maintained and very comfortable. All the necessities are provided and the owner is nice and responsive.
The property was even better than advertised. The house was well stocked with anything you could possibly need from kitchen items, to bedding, extra trash bags/papertowls/toilet paper, to kayaks/water boots. The location was great; 20 min to Deception Pass, 30min from Ebbys Landing/Coopville. While staying at the house, we enjoyed waking up every morning to the ever changing water views. We saw seals, river otters, and many birds. We would highly recommend it and will stay again. Thank you Angele for sharing your home!

Highly recommend. The home is well-equipped, clean and inviting. The setting is tranquil and beautiful, and the view is simply spectacular. We will be back...

We loved the house and property! We were there for super -moon rises that were spectacular! Given the laundry room and garage that are steps from the kitchen, you have ample space for storing food if you have a large group that likes to cook. We went clamming and had steamers with dinner. Enjoyed using the canoe and lounging on the deck. We were a three-generation family ranging in ages from 4 months to 62. We also had a visit from the Bruce the lone elk of Whidbey Island.

The house was great for my family, which includes mother-in-law, two sons and their families, including two grandchildren. The view is spectacular. The house was clean and well equipped for what we needed, including kayaks, towels and kitchen appliances. The house is in a great location to Oak Harbor (20 minutes). We also enjoyed picking blackberries and the beach walks.

This is our second time to stay here and we will be back again! Angele is super friendly and responsive throughout the entire booking process. Their family home is always equipped with everything so it makes it easy to just fly in and feel like home. She has everything at the house already! We had 3 generations staying at this lovely home and everyone had something to do. Thanks Angele for sharing your home with us again!!! Can’t wait to be back again!

As in the past, this home continues to put a smile on everyone’s stay. Loved the expanded view from the kitchen remodel. The kids and Grammy spent time on the beach. Again our families favorite vacation!

We had two families of four, with kids ranging from 2 -12, and everyone had a fantastic time at this beautiful property. You can't be being able to walk down to the beach, and being immersed in an abundance of wildlife. We saw seals, bald eagles, herons, many species of song birds, and more. We had plenty of space, rooms worked perfectly, just had a wonder-filled time!

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this fantastic beachfront house, and it was everything we could have wished for! The property had a fun, inviting vibe that made our stay incredibly enjoyable. Its prime location right on the beach was perfect for our family, as it provided easy and quick access for the kids to run out and play in the sand and beach. The house itself was impeccably clean, neat, and comfortable, ensuring a truly relaxing vacation experience. The hosts have put a lot of thought into making this a warm and welcoming space for their guests, and it really showed. We appreciated the well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, and ample seating areas for our whole family to unwind together. Overall, we couldn't be happier with our stay at this wonderful beach house. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a delightful and memorable family vacation.

Loved our stay! Comfy beds, well stocked house with all the little bonus things (extra pillows/linens, paper towels, dishwasher detergent, food wrap, spices, kitchen staples…) plus all the big things. The view is gorgeous with lots of space to explore the beach. Easy access to Oak Harbor and Deception Pass. Owners were lovely and responded quickly to questions. Highly recommend!
Falyn C.
Great location, house is right on the beach. The beach was sandy and had tons of driftwood for building forts and walking on logs. House was really clean and comfortable and the checkin and out process was very easy. We will definitely book again in the future! Thanks for an awesome weekend!

We didn't spend a lot of time at the property because we were in town for a family event, but we loved it so much that we are already planning our next trip to Washington and this property is were everyone wants to stay. it was clean and comfortable and the view from the deck on the back is incredible. I'd highly recommend!!
Erica O.
We spent three nights at Angele's property to celebrate my sister's birthday. It was magical in every sense of the word. Highlights included gazing out the window at the million dollar view, canoeing and kayaking right outside the back door, beach combing for treasures and relaxing by a warm fire at night. Short ferry ride to several neighboring areas/town make for a nice day trop. We will definitely be back again! Angele was a wonderful host and we had the time of our lives!

This home and property was perfect for our 3-generation family gathering! The views are outstanding and we enjoyed spending lots of time on the expansive deck. The beach was great and some of our group had fun using the canoe and kayaks. The home itself was very comfortable for our family of nine. The rooms are good sizes and the beds were comfortable. We slept well in this quiet neighborhood. The kitchen has a large supply of dishes and pot and pans. The pantry is very well stocked in case you forget anything. Our host was in contact and provided all the information we needed. We were pleasantly surprised with a gift of French strawberry soda on arrival! Some of our group visited Fort Casey, but others of us were content to spend the entire time at this mid-century modern home. We all agreed this was the perfect north Whidbey Island location for our gathering. We definitely want to return!

Our stay here was wonderful! Angele was communicative and accommodating, the kitchen was impressively stocked with staples (and we cooked almost all our meals here), and the house came with a stellar collection of games that kept us busy while we were holed up inside due to smoky conditions outdoors. I would definitely recommend this place for a relaxing stay to catch up with friends or family! Not to mention the stunning views.
Angela C.
We really enjoyed this house. It is quiet and right on the water, and we enjoyed the original MCM decor. They had just about everything we needed! We took advantage of the kayaks and the lovely outdoor space. We would definitely return.
