About this property

Waterfront retreat with panoramic sea views

Our house is a cozy, tranquil, getaway with a picturesque view of Saratoga passage and Mount Baker. Your blood pressure will soon drop as you sit on the deck, listen to the waves and the sea birds, while taking in the water view! We also frequently see deer in the yard. Our place is very quiet with a Northwest woodsy feel.

It is centrally located on Whidbey, providing an ideal base to explore all the island's activities and attractions. Whidbey is a big island with much to offer. Explore Deception Pass, Fort Casey, shop & dine in the quaint towns of Coupeville, Langley, visit the galleries, the farms, parks and numerous beaches all within minutes. Come back to your retreat and relax in comfort with nature. If you don't feel like getting in the car, the beach below is a five minute walk down the road. You can launch a kayak, paddleboard, or walk miles on this quiet beach. Or just stay inside, take in the view and watch premium channel TV on the 42' flat screen TV.

It has begun as a vacation rental in August 2014. We have replaced old beds with a king bed in the master and a queen bed in the second bedroom.

We hope you decide to stay at Blue Vista! We are confident that you will enjoy your time at the house and exploring Whidbey!

Perfect location for our get away!

This is a beautiful home with great views. It was perfect for our 4 day get away. Fresh air and lots of walks in local parks made for good nights' sleep in a comfortable bed. If you have trouble backing your vehicle, this is not the place for you. There is no turn around at the end of a long driveway. A book of general information about the place (i.e: how do you work both remotes for the TV) and area would have been nice but we managed.

Good - But Pricey

This is a nice house but priced too high for what it is. There is no parking. It is just a single one way path to the house so get familiar with backing down a single path to the house. It is a nice view and a good spot, but not near the water. And while the house is good, it shouldn't be priced at over 200 a night.

Very nice!

Gorgeous view, cute interior, very clean. Took grandma on a relaxation trip and the view was the perfect inspiration for our painting afternoon. Host was super communicative and was easy to work with when we wanted to extend our trip beforehand. Would totally visit again!

Mother’s Day Celebration

An idyllic setting above the ocean. The beautiful deck was the perfect spot to watch the Northern Lights display! We saw an Orca with her calf right in front of the deck! The home was perfect for two couples. We would highly recommend this home.

Great place with stunning views!

This is a great house with beautiful views. The location is close to downtown Coupeville and it’s many quaint stores and delicious places to eat. It’s a very relaxing place to sit back and decompress. The kitchen is well equipped for making meals. The beds were really comfortable. Our Corgi had a great time here too! Overall a terrific stay.

The Sounds of Freedom

The house provides a fantastic view of Saratoga Passage and is conveniently located to the local town. However, nothing prepared me for the fighter jet training exercises late into the night. While my husband is ex-military and enjoyed the experience, I was literally rattled by the sound! As for the home, at first glance it appeared well maintained, but it needs a “deep clean” with an upgrade of pots, pans and glass ware.

Perfect retreat of us!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The location is central and very convenient to Coupeville while also being very quiet and private. The home was nicely decorated and clean, and the kitchen was spacious, beautiful, and well-stocked. We also liked that you can enjoy the sweeping views while cooking. Short, peaceful walk to beach access. Recommend!
