Peaceful crafting getaway.
Cabin had beautiful views and great location for getting to lovely drives and nice trails to explore. House set up nicely for two couples with private and shared space. Kitchen needed better pans and hot tub was of no use. Needs some shelter.

Beautiful stay on Whidbey Island
We had a great stay at this property on Whidbey. Centrally located, quiet area yet walking distance to to Captain Whidbey Inn for dinner one night. Saw seals, crab, Mt. Baker and beautiful sunsets all from the property. Wonderful spot for our family vacation!

Beautiful Cove View
This was a very nice place to stay. Feeling of being remote with a great view of the cove but close to Coupeville and other locations for day trips. The outside looks a little run down but the inside was absolutely beautiful and well cared for. Hot tub was amazing to sit in especially at night with a view of the water. Instructions were left for all the needs for the house during the stay. If there was one downside, it would be that you may want to bring some regular drinking cups, especially if you have kids, as there are only wine like glasses and coffee mugs to drink from. Otherwise, no complaints.

Cozy, but remote
Not being familiar with the island or the town of Coupeville, I was surprised by how remote the cabin was. It's difficult to find, especially in the dark, until you acclimate to the area. The cabin itself was cozy and comfortable, though it could have been cleaner. Note to the property manager, the instructions for the remote and coffee maker are out of date. Both were easy enough to figure out but the instructions were misleading.

Weekend Getaway
Nice quiet place to stay. The hot tub was great. The place is older. The trim around the doors is unfinished wood and trim is missing around the base of the walls through most of the place. Not a huge deal, but it did give it a slightly unfinished/ not 100% clean feel. The deadbolt was hard to open. Had to try several times before we could get it to work, but once we figured it out it was no problem other than I hurt my hand a couple times opening it. Neither of those things would be deal breakers for me. I would definitely stay there again.

Perfect rental to feel like your isolated in the woods, but not since it’s just a short drive to downtown Coupville or back to the freeway. Quite home , great view, basic cooking amenities, comfortable and warm. Hot tub was clean and well kept.

Very Nice Stay
Very nice location, with a great view, it is a woodsy cabin feel with privacy. It has some older furnishings but it’s what we were looking for. We enjoyed the open rooms and space with two individual bathrooms off each bedroom.

I enjoy staying in this quaint cottage on the cove. It is family rustic but has everything needed. The lighting in the main room could be improved -a lot- but the view and location make up for that in spades. I look forward to my next visit.

Waterview Cottage
Quiet older home with a Waterview, no beach access. With some TLC the home would be even nicer. We had to go out and purchase batteries for the TV remote because they were dead and buy a spatula because the one there was melted and unusable. Parking was tight for a large pickup truck. Hot tub was nice after a day of fishing. Overall it met our needs.

Peaceful getaway on the cove
This is a place we’ll come back to. Whidbey Island was a new adventure for us, and it offers a wonderful combination of scenic attractions and modern convenience. The cottage itself sits right at the shore of Penn Cove (meaning gorgeous views) as well as seclusion. Th space could easily have accommodated a small family, but my husband and I appreciated the 2-bedroom, 2-bath layout. We never could get the TV to work, but we don’t care too much about that. I really didn’t want to leave this place!

Family visit
Place is OK to get to. Directions make it pretty straight forward to find. Road to driveway goes through hotel property. Drive is steep/unpaved at the end so super low cars will not make this bit of road. House was in good order. Everything worked, and there are clear instructions from the renters on what needs to be done at checkout.
