This house is so cute and in a quiet neighborhood. It’s a short walk to the beach. They had everything I needed including tea and coffee. I would definitely stay here again!

Didn't expect there to not have a TV in the rental. Fantastic area and great views! The place was fully stocked with more stuff than I expected. Close to waterfront and shops! The queen sized bed was hard as a rock but the king size was comfortable!

Hi Jeanne, glad so many things worked out ok for you. The description has been updated in main description of listing to note no TV, but it was in additional details about the house. Sorry you missed that note but hopefully it won't keep you from renting again. There is a small flat screen that was left by a guest who bought a cheap used one and it's stored in the garage and available for use. Thanks again for staying here! Cheers, Reba

The best thing about this property is its location -- very convenient. If I had stayed for a longer period, it would have been nice to have a washer and dryer, and possibly a television.

Rhanks so much for your feedback! I'm not sure how it got missed but there is a full size laundry onsite in the garage, it's the door next to the barh area. As for a TV, I have chosen this place to be a sanctuary away from television, which is why books and fames are available, along with good WiFi for people's devices if they want to stream something. Whidbey Island is so beautiful, I want to encourage people to be outside or connecting with each other.

Nice quiet property with fenced yard for dogs. Owner was easy to reach for questions. No television made for relaxing and refreshing stay.

Thanks, Ellen! That was exactly my goal for not putting one in. 😊 So happy you got to be relaxed and refreshed at the Mermaid Captain House! Happy to host you again if you're out this way another time. Cheers!

The house was very nice and roomy for 4-6 people. The only mention would be the fact that there is a lower level rental that is not mentioned on VRBO. The renters that were there at the same time were no problem at all. It would be nice if the lower rental was mentioned.. we would definately stay again.Denise

House is very close to downtown. Dishwasher does not clean dishes. House definitely needs some maintenance (curtains held up with bread tie in living room). Shower was spacious

Visit our Navy son

Very quaint and cozy and so close to the water. The backyard was great. My only complaint would be that the mattresses on both beds should be replaced, they were quite hard. Otherwise, very cute place! Thank you!

Good, as described

Communication with the owner was great and informative. We did not eat there, but the kitchen seem to have everything we needed. Lots of wine glasses, but no glass water glasses, so we bought a couple. Bathroom Towels were great, wifi was good, but no TV. I missed that.

If you're looking for a Millennial gray/beige short-term rental, this is not the place you. Instead, this is a quirky but cute cottage that is surprisingly spacious inside. It's clean, roomy, and cozy all at the same time. It's definitely owned by a dog lover as dogs are welcomed there and there are convenience dog items in the home, including lint rollers, dog bags, and dog toys. The backyard was perfect for our husky. We let her out the backdoor, and she was able to do her business without escaping. I loved not having a TV there (but for those looking for media on their trip, the WiFi is really good). We played Monopoly, walked downtown, went to the bookstore, and spent time with family who live nearby. It was a great trip, and the house was perfect for us. Thank you!

Cute house

We enjoyed our stay but were unaware that there is no TV. There should be a sheet telling how to use the heat system and what day to put the garbage out as the can was full when we got there. There are a lot of plants outside and no hose to water them.

There was no water front view. It was not disclosed that there would be other people staying in the basement. We woke up to them talking the morning after check in. It was non smoking but they were out in the porch smoking which the smoke traveled into our space. It was dog friendly and they had theirs out in the yard so it would have been awkward had our dogs been there, we usually travel with our dogs but this was last minute and chose not to this time. No tv. Owner said that was on purpose and there were games. There were three games that were old. No tv is kinda a big deal. We went and bought one and gave it away. Said there was a dining area. No there was a small bistro set in the kitchen. House came with no instructions for heating and air. We blew the circuits using one of their provided space heaters. There were extension cords everywhere. There were no curtains in the front of the house which was weird as while we were there two different renters occupied the basement. Having said all that it was clean and the bed was comfortable. Place needs some major updating. I would not stay there again.

I have never claimed this home was "waterfront" it has some water views. The listing also notes it has no TV and I choose it to be that way for peaceful stays away from media. The focus is on books with some games and interestingly enough some guests are starting to leave items for others to use or read. It does have great WiFi for anyone who needs to work or stream content. Photos also give you an idea of the space and views out to the area south of the home looking towards the harbor.

Nicely located in quite neighborhood

Well located to walk to the waterfront and old town. Easy drive to everything else. Well stocked kitchen and lovely deck with peek-a-boo view of the water. The house is comfortable but old. Beds are hard and hot water only lasted for 1 1/2 showers. Internet is excellent and we were able to stream movies. It’s best asset is location!
