The cottage was well maintained and well furnished, it was a perfect place to relax and unwind. My only suggestion is a rug in the bathroom because the floor is real slick.

Excellent Getaway!

A lovely spot near the water! We found a couple spots to watch the sunset, but really enjoyed the loft area, as well as being surrounded by forest and flowers! It was a great location, where we could take day trips to all the local towns, and still get back to tuck in!

Pictures need updating for this property

Highlights of the rental included Master bed, couch, TV and updated appliances like dishwasher and laundry. Quaint and roomy space. Great parking. Secure front door. Main level comfortable temperature - we stayed here in July. Photos make it look more updated and plush than it is: upstairs space way too hot to comfortably abide, one bed is sagging in, windows need updating, porch furniture not as pictured.

Cozy country home, close to everything, great outdoor spaces

This house surpassed my expectations! It's cozy with enough room to have a family gathering. The upstairs has a lot of beds, downstairs has one more bedroom. Back deck and front porch! Perfect for sipping coffee. Large couch seats maybe 8 people, large dining room table. Adequate kitchen. Perfect house for a Whidbey island getaway!

I wish I had known this ahead of time

I stayed at the house in February and the weather was cold. The wood stove isn’t just charming - it’s the main heat source for the whole house. (There are some little space heaters as well.) Bring firewood with you. I also wished I had brought slippers! The other reviewers are right, the house smells musty. Aside from that, it’s spacious, had everything I wanted in the kitchen, and worked well for my writing trip on my own. I felt very comfortable in the neighborhood. The bed in the bedroom on the ground floor is raised up and has a footstool to climb into it. All other beds are upstairs in one large room.

Not what we expected.

Pictures seemed to be a little misleading. Not entirely what we expected. But it was a quiet area which was nice. Property could use some maintenance. We arrived with out dated appliances and old expired condiments and spices. Would not recommend using any of them unless absolutely necessary We were left with some laundry tide pods which was very nice. Tv included basic channels but we stuck to watching YouTube which was a nice option to have Loads of fire ants in the front of the house when we arrived which wasn’t the end of the world. But it was a problem for our little girls We spent most of our time out with family so it was nice spot to just have to sleep. Not sure I would stay at this exact location again or to have longer than a couple days stay.

Very cute little cottage tucked away in the trees. Lovely little house with everything you need. Close to a little grocery market, and minutes from the ferry which made finding it and leaving a breeze.

cabin

This is definitly a rustic cabin with one bathroom. It is easily located, close to the ferry. The house was cool even though the weather was hot. it definitly needs another mirror.

The location was nice, in the country. Place was clean and the housekeeper came as we were checking in and made sure we had everything. Kitchen is decent, and bedroom on first floor is nice. But the rest of the place needs a lot of work. Most of the windows did not work well, or even open at all. The ones that did, upstairs, did not have any screens at all! It was hot up there, so we had to leave them open and so we had lots of flies and bugs the whole time we were there. Photos make this place look a lot better than it was in real life! We ended up leaving a day early.

Family Time

The house was adequate. We had plenty of space for our family. The musty oder affected my sinuses in a negative way. The master bed mattress was old and could use replacing. There were cracked windows that were duct tape together.

House was nice and clean and perfect for my family and I. Only downside is it is older and does have a bit of a musty smell. Right by the ferry and in a nice quiet location in the woods.

Disappointing

The house smelled very damp, only had one small mirror in the bathroom, had a weird layout, spotty internet, a 10 digit access code that didn’t work and a bed that was so high it was hard to get in to. The are better places to stay on the island. It was disappointing.

Great place.

Older home with some updates. Very clean. It had everything we needed. It would have been nice to have coffee and a couple bottles of water available on arrival. I loved the heated floor in the bathroom. The stairs to the upper bedroom were slippery. Owner definitely needs to add treds on stairs. I would stay again.

So-so

The house is fine, nice amount of things inside, comfortable beds, but beware: the windows mostly don’t open or don’t have screens, the back screen door doesn’t open, we had bugs inside, and our clothes smelled very musty after sleeping in the main bed. The house smells it’s age, and needs a solid airing out, drying out, and refresh.

Stay on south Whidbey Island

This vacation rental was alright for staying overnight but not a place we would spend much time. It is an older home, with some remodeling. We were there in early April with temps in the 40s and rain- the heat was inadequate. The bathtub was old and slippery, grab bars but no anti-slip bathmat. The bed was at least 3ft off the ground- unnecessary and difficult to get in- with one side step stool) and a too soft mattress (I know some people may like that). The step up to the front porch/ deck is high/difficult for someone with mobility issues. And, is there a reason that the code for the entry is 10 digits- typically 4-6 so that you can remember the code when going in and out.

Do NOT stay here

I was here for 5 days with my husband- the house does not heat well, the fans are dusty, and the main bedroom bed is a piece of memory foam on top of a hard mattress which is extremely uncomfortable. On top of this, my husband got locked out without his phone and tried to get back in (in broad daylight at 1pm, when we had booked late checkout already for 2pm) and the owners of this property who seem to be right across the way called the police on him no questions asked and no phone call to me (the person who booked). AFTER this all happened an agent from Vacasa called me and essentially said nothing could be done about this situation. Be cautious if you choose to book here, and maybe don't book with Vacasa.

Nice place

The house was clean and had everything you would need. The beds and pillows were so comfortable. Lots of room, my only suggestion is better lighting. Maybe a few lamps upstairs. We were there at the end of October so there were pine needles everywhere but that's not something that can be helped. The reason I gave it a 4 star rating was we had trouble with the keyless entry a few times. The manager helped over the phone and we were able to lock it. When we came back at night it would not unlock so we called again. After trying to talk us through she ended up driving out at night and was able to get us in. The maintenance man was there right on time in the morning to fix it.

Great location

We came for opening day fishing and were very happy with the central location to the lakes. The neighboorhood felt very safe and was nice and quiet. The house was fairly clean. The beds and bedding were very nice and super comfortable. Nice window coverings. The kitchen is large and well stocked. Nice tv room with a comfortable couch and lovely fire stove which we really enjoyed. Many streaming channel options on a nice television. Bbq was clean. Nice heated floor in the bathroom. We have stayed at a lot of rentals and I always try to give an honest and positive review. I feel this place has great potential. If some time was given to a few details. When driving up to the house my initial thought was the yard and house don't look well cared for. There is great potential for some nice landscaping as there are many beautiful trees and shrubs. The walkway up to the house has loose cement and is a tripping hazard. There was an awful smell upstairs where my husband and I slept. Smelled like a mixture of cigarette smoke, urine, maybe dirty carpet and mold. Had to leave a window open just so we could sleep up there. Railing for the stairs does not come all the way to the top of the stairs which makes traveling down the stairs at night with minimal lighting very scary and potentially dangerous as the stairs are steep. The lighting is very poor throughtout the house. Light bulbs of all different watts in most of the fixtures. Many cob webs hanging from the ceilings. Window frames and slider gutter were very dirty. Only two smoke alarms in the entire house not sure they worked no test lights showing. Showerhead is covered in hard water calcification so produces low flow and toilet only flushes if you hold the handle down until it is empty. Bugs in corner of ceiling cobweb in bathroom. Although the kitchen is large the lighting is so bad in here you can hardly see what you are doing. The refrigerator leaked water onto the floor twice while we were there soaking a corner of a floor rug. There are a lot of utensils but some are rusty and should be discarded and replaced. The inside of the cupboards and drawers look dirty because of the shelf liners. We felt that with a few minor improvements that this place has a great chance at being an often used rental. Great central location in a quiet neighbourhood. They must take care of the smell upstairs though! Wish I could have left a better review. But I hope this helps the owners make some much needed improvements so they can get the most out of the rental. We would like to come back but only if the upstairs smell is resolved.
