Retreat to serene, sound-front beauty on Whidbey Island at this gorgeously updated, family-friendly rental. Overlooking Skagit Bay, just outside of Oak Harbor, this three-bedroom home offers a quiet retreat with a convenient location to everyday essentials.

Tastefully renovated and refurbished with modern comfort and entertainment in mind, this home is designed to accommodate small group and family gathering. A sweeping, wraparound deck boasts several features including a private hot tub, a sunny lounge area with water views, and a covered, outdoor dining area and private gas grill for summertime cookouts. A sprawling, green backyard lawn area includes a large, stone-circle firepit. The two-level interior features beautiful flooring and recent updates throughout the space.

On the main floor, a painted brick hearth acts as a semi-open partition to the kitchen and living room, with an adjacent, sun-filled dining room through accessible from both areas. Relax in the living room by the warming glow of the gas fireplace while gazing out at the water or catching up with your favorite shows and movies on the flatscreen TV. The kitchen has been fully renovated and redesigned, featuring all new cabinetry and counter tops, a custom backsplash, and a suite of stainless steel appliances including a gas range/hood and dishwasher. A sleek, barn-style sliding door offers inset kitchen storage. Wrapped with windows, the dining room is awash with natural lighting and near-360 views of the home's surroundings.

The fully furnished basement level features a second living area complete with sofa seating, fireplace, flatscreen smart TV, and selection of puzzles. There is one bedroom with an attached, half-bath on this level.

Great weekend getaway for family of 5

We took a weekend trip to Whidbey for our family of 5. I booked this mostly for the water views. The views were better than expected. The house was well kept and had plenty of amenities. Will book again the next time we want to come to Whidbey Island.

Beautiful view, comfy- some stuff didn't work

10/10 for the view. Comfortable beds. Beautiful home. Amazing kitchen and outdoor dining. Downsides: the fireplace did not have any gas, the spa was cloudy from being overchlorinated, and the dial on the dryer was broken.

Perfect place to enjoy Oak Harbor

Beautiful well stocked split level home -with toys for preschoolers even- with a majestic view. Stay once and you will want to return. Comfortable living areas and primary bedroom, very workable kitchen. Dining table for six. Lots of linens, cookware. Stunning views with lots of wild life to enjoy.

Great vacation home. Would definitely come back again.

Home was perfect for our family and had all the amenities we needed. Only recommendation would be to check septic tank. Had a bad smell in lower part of the house a few mornings. Might want to also check the pump on hot tub, could hear it run a lot when not in use and no settings were changed on it.

Amazing view and wildlife in the yard every day.

The house was clean and ready with early checkin. Everything was great except for the hot tub not having the chemicals balanced and the water was yellow. Contacted them as soon as we saw it and they came out and fixed it the next morning. The view from the hot tub was amazing and just like shown. There were always bunnies in the yard and deer multiple times a day.

Birthday Weekend Away

Great property. Door code did not work when we got there but was able to call and get a extra key. Was clean although the hot tub was cold but we didn't use it the first night and it warmed up quickly the second night. Beautiful view and super comfy. Kitchen well stocked for all our needs.

Sisters trip

We had a wonderful stay! It’s a great house, though not without issues. One was being awakened at 5:30 by some sort of alarm. Finally found the problem in the garage. Even after having a service tech come out we still had Wi-Fi problems, especially with the tv. Overall, it was an amazing weekend and the views are incredible!

Gorgeous View

This house has amazing views! The kitchen was great, and overall it was a nice place to stay. I don’t think they had done yard work in a while as there were thorny weeds growing out of the stairs leading to the front door. There were a few things worn out, and needed replacement. The water seemed a little rusty during our stay. We enjoyed our few nights there. Loved Whidbey Island!

Very Nice Place to Stay--- AND its haunted!

The house was great for the price. The hot tub and views are amazing. The house was clean. If you don't mind "strange feelings and ghosts" this is great. Weird noises throughout the night, very, very creaky floors, some people wrote in guestbook haunted and some pages were also torn out. Woke up to it being 48 degrees IN the house on the first night after turning on the heat to 70 the night before.
