Very clean and well maintained property. Central location to everything lots of things to keep you busy. Rooms were just right and the outside patio was a hit.
Beautiful property. This is a special place. We felt it was a secret find. Loved!

Great stay-
Our stay was amazing! Everything was perfect! Better than advertized - clean, well stocked with games, towels, kitchenware- beautiful and inviting deck…!
This was a wonderful retreat by the lake, surrounded by trees and felt secluded but was easy to access. Great indoor and outdoor space with comfortable furniture and a stocked kitchen. It's nice to disconnect, but know that there's no cell service and wifi is unreliable.
Our visit was perfect. House was great and spacious. We had a wonderful stay. Be careful exiting steep driveway. Cars come fast from the left. Hope to come again. Also, let's to do on the island.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Started with VRBO ended with VACASA not a problem but not the expectation
It was great, right size, right amenities. served the need well.
This house is very spacious, clean, and well-appointed. Great kitchen with all the supplies you could want (that I could see). The furniture, carpet, fixtures etc. aren't brand sparkling new or high-end or anything, but it was still just great for our needs. Recommend for big groups or families needing a place to stay on South Whidbey!

Great place to stay out on Whidbey!
Great house. Plenty of space. We went out for a wedding at The Wayfarer which was just 4ish miles down the road. Goss lake access was really great but make sure to turn left when you get to the bottom of the driveway to get to the public access spot. We accidentally went right and took the scenic route around the whole lake. Very fun, nicely cleaned house that fit our 2 families very well!!

Cabin Getaway
Great house to accommodate large number of guests and pets. Appreciated the number of bedrooms. Surrounding property was nice. It's got a very cabin/lake house vibe and feels lived-in, so cleanliness/tidiness/quality of furnishings and appliances was conducive to that. A bit outdated and cluttered, but served its purpose! Overall great stay and bang for your buck!

This is a beautiful property that was perfect for our week long family get together. We were visited by birds, chipmunks and deer in the garden. We enjoyed hanging out on the deck and used the grill for a cookout. There are two spacious living areas and plenty of space for 6 adults (plus 2 extra for one night). We visited Seattle, Everette, Langley and took a whale watching tour out of Anacortes. Lots is great together time and time spent outdoors. We definitely recommend this property for a family stay!
The house is well stocked, the beds are comfortable, and that deck is perfect for a morning cup of coffee looking at the lake, and for an owl to keep us company in the evening. Langley, with all of those cute shops (and great pizza) was close enough and decked out for the holidays. We had real family meals using the fully functional kitchen and the table was big enough to accommodate the boardgames perfectly! The driveway was steep, but okay since there was no ice. The wifi was good. Overall, my family really enjoyed the whole experience!

Nice home, but needs better property management set up
The place is charming and nice. We experienced a number of irritating elements but made the most of it all. With some better set up those challenges would have been mitigated if not fixed. No one is perfect of course, but it seemed like there were a lot of things overlooked here.

There was no wifi but it was nice
It had a lot of bedrooms but my 12 year old granddaughter found weed (the kind you smoke) under her bed her mom threw it away but I wanted to make it aware

We apologize housekeeping missed checking under the beds. They will be reminded to do so. Thank you, Jan!
This is a nice property with an open floor plan in a peaceful location. There were a few minor issues with the lights in a couple of the rooms, but Vacasa addressed these quickly. Vacasa also brought by a propane cylinder for the grill, as the one provided cylinder was empty. Sadly, the grill ended up not working anyway. Overall a good experience though. A nice property at a good value.

Last Minute Rental
We were glad to find a place to stay on short notice and it met our needs perfectly. We really enjoyed sitting out on the deck on the patio furniture in the evening. So peaceful and beautiful! Being a “pet-friendly” rental, I was expecting some dog hair, etc., here and there and that was the case. It was pretty hot upstairs in the bedrooms with no AC, but each room was supplied with a box fan and it cooled down nicely in the evenings. Thankful for the rental, and crabbing on Whidbey didn’t disappoint!
fans in each room and cooled down nicely in the evenings.
