Marty's Place

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Escape the everyday and experience the extraordinary when you book this fantastic and historic vacation home for your next getaway. This restored 1909 farmhouse has all the amenities of a modern home but has maintained its rustic sensibilities. Enjoy the breathtaking views of Saratoga Passage, Camano Island, and Mount Baker. Sit by the crackling outdoor firepit, stroll or play yard games across 4 1/2 acres of fields and gardens, or sit and read under the trees. Indulge in cocktails while witnessing the spectacular sunset from the gazebo or gather around the piano inside while you tickle the ivories. Watch the roosting eagles soar above the bluff year-round, and see the gray whales in the distance during their migration from March to May.

Upon entry, you'll be met with a bright interior and a cozy atmosphere throughout the well-appointed living area. Marvel at the blanket of natural light coming in through the windows, the effortless woodwork, and the beautiful furnishings, radiating comfort from every corner. Prepare grand meals in the sophisticated kitchen, equipped with stainless steel appliances, ample cupboard room, and a formal dining table. Comfortable beds in spacious bedrooms ensure that everyone receives a wonderful night's rest from the day's adventures, with the main bedroom boasting a lovely en suite bathroom.

Amazing stay at Marty's Place!
Marty's Place was the perfect venue for our group of 12 women to spend a beautiful weekend. The grounds and view were beautiful, the kitchen was so well-stocked, the location was convenient-- all in all, it's the ideal space for a large group to stay!

Beautiful, Quiet, Breathtaking View, Great for Families
We absolutely loved our stay at Marty’s Place!! The home was incredibly charming and clean and we immediately felt at home. Our kids liked playing outside and we all found spots around the house to read. It was a great spot for a multigenerational trip! We will definitely stay there again in the future.

Annual Family Cabin Weekend
This is our 3rd annual family cabin weekend. The family voted this the best thing yet. The property was amazing and easily accommodated the 11 of us. Some of the kids are real foodies and the kitchen was very well equipped. The grounds and view are amazing. There were good places for those who had to work to hide away. Will definitely consider again.

Nana's 80 Birthday Celebration
14 of spent the weekend at Marty's place. We enjoyed the large, well appointed house sitting on a bluff overlooking Saratoga Passage. The beds were very comfortable and the house heated perfectly so all were warm. It is a wonderful place and one that is perfect for special family celebrations. Also, thank you for allowing our dog to be with us. We really enjoyed sitting around the fire pit while viewing the water looking for whales.

Mom's 90th!
This was the absolute perfect home for our family to gather to celebrate our precious Mother! Everyone had their own space to sleep, the view was pristine gorgeous, and close to the ferry and local beach access. Our kids had a great time flying kites in the large yard, a cozy fire pit and exploring the acreage. There were a couple things we needed to notify the owner about, and the response was immediate. We really treasure the memories made and hope to return.

Spectacular for women's retreat
Beautiful house, roomy, mesmerizing view, fantastic well stocked kitchen for retreat with ten 65+ women, clean, affordable, nice deck, lovely fire pit, dry firewood, outdoor grill, the works. Lots of bedrooms, but disappointingly dreadful mattresses on bunk beds and pullout sofa beds. Could have used luggage racks for suitcases and separate cans labeled for garbage, recycling and compost in kitchen. Nice bathrooms and lots of them. Good quality and abundant towels, linens, pillows and comforters. Great kitchen and dining area for cooking for and feeding lots of people. Private, generally quiet, lots of birdsong and the most beautiful view you could ever want. Delightful, highly recommended.

Ideal Gathering Place!
We chose Marty's Place for our annual sisters & cousins getaway, and it fit the bill perfectly. Plenty of rooms and beds and bathrooms--and nooks for puzzling and reading and chatting. The kitchen is exceptionally well-equipped, allowing us to cook every meal for ourselves, and the space even allowed for our impromptu dance party. While we didn't take full advantage of the outdoor space, it was lovely to look at, and the water views from both floors were outstanding. We'll be back!

Beautiful old house and amazing location.
This is an absolutely magnificent home. It’s nicely decorated and comfortable with more than enough room for a large family or gathering. The view and grounds are beautiful. Being an old home there are some quirks, like creaky stairs and antique door handles, which can be frustrating to work, but this gives the home its charm and character. The kitchen is perfectly appointed with a Viking stove and confection oven, large refrigerator and two dishwashers. The bedrooms all have antique furniture and cozy quilts with gorgeous views.

Perfect Girl's Trip
Perfect girls trip. Four of us stayed at Marty’s House and loved every minute. The house is very welcoming with a wrap-around porch where we gathered every night for a glass of wine while watching the sunset. It has a huge kitchen with everything you would need or want and large, well-appointed bedrooms. The beds and linens were very comfortable and we loved all the quilts. The house and property is well maintained and very clean. Downtown Langley is a quaint little town with great restaurants, wine tasting rooms and quality shops that are not “Touristy” souvenir stores. It was a great stay and if we come back, Marty’s House will be on the top of our list.

Amazing property and a beautiful kitchen, with plenty of bedding arrangements. Many of the couches were pullouts which allowed people to sleep by themselves rather than share a bed. Would absolutely stay here again!

It was so hard to leave! Can't wait to return one day!
Marty's Place lived up to and exceeded our expectations. The setting is beautiful, the kitchen has more than everything you need, and there was plenty of space for our group of 11-13 (depending on the day) to enjoy themselves. The house is comfortable and welcoming. We had wonderful weather allowing us to enjoy the porch and firepit at night. It's easy to walk into town. Eagles, deer, bunnies, etc. Great views. What more can you ask for in a vacation experience?!? Every single person in our group wants to return to Marty's Place. That says it all.
