Nestled between vibrant Seattle and the serene San Juan Islands, this waterfront gem offers the perfect blend of nostalgia and modern comfort.

Simply Magical!
I invited a group of girlfriends for a weekend away on Whidbey. Goldilocks turned out to be beyond perfect for our needs. The location and view are spectacular. The house is beautiful and incredibly comfortable. It was the perfect setting to relax, cook together, sit by the fire and just soak up the gorgeous nature around us. Highly recommend. We'll be back!

The views of the Olympic Mountains and Puget Sound, the peaceful surroundings Including the bald eagles, and the abundant wildlife right outside the door. The host was very helpful and accommodating. This home was definitely a highlight of our trip. Thank you for sharing.
