By far the cleanest house we have ever stayed at. As a family we have stayed at many homes…high end homes in Suncadia etc this home was cleaner and taken much better care of cleanliness wise then any of those homes by far. The ceiling had no cob webs, lights were dusted even the light bulbs, etc were all dusted and clean. They used ever nook of the house perfectly and really made it feel so inviting and cozy and cheerful:) The location is truly stunning:) my mom and I had a wonderful relaxing time at this home:) we will most definitely be back. Only refinement is the upstairs queen bed was super soft and not supportive enough. The king bed on the main level and other queen was great though:)Thank you for sharing your beautiful home:) What a blessing:)

Everything with the property was great! The campfire on the beach was very pretty and a lot of fun. Watching the tide go in and out was fascinating. And view was amazing. I think they may want to replace the oven as we did struggle with that a bit.The VRBO app on the IPhone was terrible. Very difficult to find the important information, like address and key code, etc. cut the ads and make it easy to get to the important stuff.

We're so glad you enjoyed the beach and relaxing at the house. we'll take a look at the one burner that can be a little challenge to light. Thanks for letting us know. Wish I could control the platform and remove adds, but unfortunately, I don't, but we will look to send check in information in the body of the messages. This is the first we've heard of the information on the platform being difficult to "find". Thanks again for staying with us!

We were extremely happy with this accommodation. We celebrated my mothers birthday here and it was easy for her to move about the main level and onto the patio with her walker. The kitchen is very well stocked with every cooking gadget you could need. It was so nice to sit on the patio and just watch the water, birds and otters. We also enjoyed walking the beach during low tide and seeing all the sea life. We will definitely be staying here again!

WONDER stay on the water.

We brought our kids to Whidbey Island to show them the area we used to live. We went to Anacortes for a whale watching trip and watched F-18’s in the pattern over Whidbey Island NAS. The stay was so relaxing. Thanks for letting us enjoy your special place.

Amazing family getaway

Wanted to get away someplace close that felt far away. Found this gem on the bay with amazing views. House is as described with plenty of room for four adults. Kitchen is well appointed, and the living area is very open and comfortable. View from both decks were amazing and right on the beach! Definitely bring your kayaks!

Spring break in the San Juan islands.

Family get away for first timers to the NW US. Anacortes is a perfect location for access to the San Juan's and whales and stunning nature hikes. This was a lovely cottage set directly on the bay with privacy, nature and beauty just out the window. The icing on the cake would be kyack out the back porch.
