We are repeat visitors to this gorgeous property. There is absolutely nothing about this experience that we would change. Krystle is an excellent host, and communication is wonderful.
What a stunning location and home! From the time I requested to book the experience was top notch. When we arrived on property it was far beyond our expectations. Decorated to a tee, comfy beds and amazing views from every room. We celebrated Thanksgiving there and the kitchen was very well appointed with everything that we needed. It was perfection and we WILL be back very soon!
This is the perfect home for a multi-generational family getaway. There was plenty of space for everyone to enjoy separate or joined activities, to prepare meals together, to decompress and enjoy. We loved viewing the wildlife out on the beach or from the large windows all over the house. Everything one would possibly need was provided, including very comfortable beds and linens. Will definitely book this again!
So peaceful and beautiful! Everything we needed plus more. All the way from Ohio and would definitely stay here again. Wonderful host!
This is a wonderful, spacious, fully equipped house with beautiful grounds and lovely furnishings. One of the things I loved most was the layout - there were several areas, both inside and out, where we could gather as a group as well as a number of places people could go if they wanted to read by themselves or be alone. The kitchen is laid out so that three of us could prepare a meal together and not get in each other’s way and people who wanted to be outside could be on the deck, around the fire pit or in the tea house/playhouse if they were small enough! Crystal was great to work with - she’s warm, welcoming, left clear, detailed instructions and responded immediately on the few occasions I had questions. This rental experience was superb in every respect.
Our family was in Whidbey for a family wedding and stayed 5 days. We have rented houses many times in the past and this house was by far the best ever! The location is perfect! Everything we needed was there. Beautiful views! Crystal is the best host we’ve ever had and she communicated with us throughout our stay and she was in Slovenia! Thank you Crystal!
My now husband and I booked this property for our wedding and it exceeded all of our expectations! We enjoyed having our close friends come stay with us before the wedding and had the luxury of having fun setting up and getting ready for the big day in such a beautiful, comfortable and well stocked home. Crystal was so helpful and responsive. The big day was picturesque and I didn’t have to do nearly as much decor because look at the stunning view. Again, the house was well stocked for those last minute needs that arose. The kids at the wedding played in the tea house and on the beach We had a bonfire at the end of the night and took it in. There were rooms and bathrooms for everyone to get ready comfortably. In the days afterward we enjoyed the suite, a gorgeous view off the private balcony, the soaking tub and walking on the beach. We admired the bright moon each night we were there and the gorgeous summer weather helped our stay too! This property is special. The house is so charming and each room has well curated decor. You will love your stay here and/or you will having an amazing event that will wow your guests here!!! All of my guests were so impressed.
Probably the best rental we have ever stayed at - the location and views were GORGEOUS! The house is so so comfortable and the kitchen so well supplied that you actually won’t believe it’s a rental. My elderly parents had a spacious room on the main floor, our kids played cards at the big kitchen table into the night- just a superb place. Crystal was so accommodating and helped went above and beyond with our boat inquiries. We hope we will have a chance to return.
Heron’s Crossing was a great place for our extended family Christmas gathering. The decorations were beautiful and everything about the property was perfect!
This property is phenomenal and perfect for our extended family Thanksgiving getaway! Crystal is super responsive and a wonderful host.
This was our second time renting at Heron’s Crossing - we love it here! The house has everything you could want from a fully stocked kitchen, to puzzles and games for all ages, to kayaks, paddle boards, life jackets, and lawn games. All the bedrooms are beautiful! The yard and gardens are amazing and the views are out of this world. The kids had so much fun kayaking and paddle boarding on their own this time. We can’t wait to come back!
Setting was phenomenal and host was very accommodating.
This property (both the grounds and house) is outstanding! We had an absolutely fantastic experience staying in this house for 5 days. The kitchen is so well stocked - just like my own! The house is spacious with beautiful beds and linen. The owner is so friendly and was so helpful in providing information about caterers and how to set up for a planned rehearsal dinner at the house etc. We had lovely folding tables in addition to patio tables and numerous chairs for our use, and so we were easily able to host an absolutely stunning rehearsal dinner outside!! I can’t say enough about how wonderful our experience was in the house. We felt right at home immediately and lacked for nothing! Thank you, thank you, thank you to the wonderful home owner for allowing us the use of this house for our island visit for our son’s wedding!
This is a large house that is in excellent condition and has everything you could possibly need. For children it is great. There is a fairly large lawn where we played many games and of course there is the bay. This particular property is on a smaller bay of the much larger Useless Bay which has a 'stream' running through it at low tide which is absolutely great for the kids to use the kayaks and SUPs which are supplied. Wonderful trip.
We had the absolute best time at Heron's Crossing. House is spacious, yard is gorgeous, and the view can't be beat! Owner is great too. We hope to be back!
The property was more than advertised. The house was located right on the beach with beautiful gardens front back. There was also a well-manicured lawn on the front that as perfect place for both kids and adults to play. The house itself was nicely furnished and had lots of windows providing great views of the beach. The kitchen was well stocked and to top it all off, the property owned provided a welcoming pie and bottle of wine. Highly recommend.
We hosted our wedding weekend here and it was just perfect. Crystal was communicative and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. It’s a truly special property that I know we and our family will revisit for years to come!
