A fabulous property for larger groups. We were a group of seven on a writer’s retreat. Each had her own bedroom with en-suite bathroom. There were lots of areas inside and out set up for larger groups: seating areas, oversized tables, huge kitchen with 10 burner gas stove, lovely bedding and comfortable mattresses. Lovely grounds. Just a delightful property.

Wedding weekend stay

My niece planned her wedding on Whidby Island and, at first, we were a bit flustered because of the lack of a traditional 'hotel block' but were fortunate to find your property. It was perfect for our group - giving each couple privacy with a private room and ensuite bathroom. Beds were comfortable and you have the 'best' towels I have ever used in a rental! The main kitchen had everything you might need to cook for a group. Our 4 YO granddaughter was with us and enjoyed the grounds including the play structure. We spent most of our time 'out and about' and found the location perfect for exploring. Having the 4 yo with us we would caution others that there was only one working bathtub and it was a large soaker tub and would not be easy to bathe a younger child. The property manager was very accessible and responsive - although we didn't really have any issues crop up. Would stay here again without question.

We'll be back!

This was our third stay at Crawford House, so the fact that we have chosen multiple times it as a place to vacation with our adult kids and grandkids says a lot. It is lovely and spacious with a nice kitchen and comfortable pretty bedrooms. Our grandkids love the big yard (which is stunningly beautiful) and playset. We enjoy the big table that we can eat on one end of while doing a huge jigsaw puzzle on the other end. We had fun going wine and mead tasting, visiting the park, and trying out local restaurants in the area, as well. It was a wonderfully relaxing weekend, and the owner and manager are both friendly and helpful. We can't wait to come back.

Perfect Place for Large Gathering

A group of old college roommates with our partners and newborns spent the weekend here and had a great time. Spacious, great bedrooms. We hired a private chef, who cooked a couple meals in the kitchen, which was large enough to comfortably handle the large meals. Backyard is great for lawn games. And Lara and Jennifer were communicative and very helpful. Would definitely recommend renting.

50th anniversary trip

I booked this house over a year ago to celebrate with our entire family and it was fabulous! From the coffee beans to the bottle of wine and fresh strawberries they left us on arrival to the special treats that the manager Jennifer brought us for movie night and back yard smores. Jennifer even ran over with a scale one night so we could make sure 2 of the kids weighed enough for the zipline tour they wanted to do. Lara was a delight to work with and I would stay here anytime again. Thanks so much for all you did to make the trip special.

Pictures Don’t Do This Place Justice

We had a group of 13 (six couples and a brother). This place could not have served our group any better. The space was perfect. Having six bedrooms on one wing of the house each with full in-suite bathrooms, each with large comfy beds, and all separated from the other wing of the house was perfect. A hallway with a sort of storm door separates the sleeping area from the living area is what made this place so perfect. If our group was hanging out in the overly spacious living room and someone wanted to go to bed, they could get away and enjoy a quiet nights sleep. The kitchen is very well stocked with all equipment needed, the 10 burner stove with double oven is perfect for cooking for a large group. We were all able to sit at the dining room table for meals together. The patio was very spacious and so peaceful for a morning cup of coffee (deer would walk right up to the patio to eat from the trees). The “caretaker’s suite” was also a really nice addition for our 13th guest to have their own space as well. The host was great, this house was perfect, we will definitely be back to stay here. My only advice to guests who are not from the area, the ferry can have long wait times if you plan on going off the island. Wasn’t a huge deal, but we did push our dinner back an hour and half one evening.

Perfect space for a retreat!

We hosted a yoga retreat at Langley Retreat Center. We all loved our stay, and our guests said their rooms were beautiful, clean, and very comfortable. They enjoyed their stay and the retreat, and asked us to host another one here. As hosts of this retreat, we only had positive experiences. Lara and her team made sure everything we needed was ready for us. She had all the yoga props we needed prepared. There is a beautiful space for 12 people to practice yoga. She answered all our questions in a timely manner. We will definitely be booking this beautiful home and retreat center again.

Lovely Retreat for Relaxation

We enjoyed our stay at the Langley Retreat Center. We felt so at home - maybe even more rested and restored. The home was clean, fully stocked in the kitchen and living room, including yoga props. Some guests enjoyed the baby grand piano too. The rooms/beds were very comfortable. Excellent location close to the center of town and island exploration. We plan to rebook for another retreat weekend.

Great property for large family gathering

The property and location were perfect for our extended family's stay for our daughter's wedding. We spent almost all our time in the kitchen or on that fabulous patio. We grilled a couple evenings including the last night when 25 straggler guests and family members joined us for one last celebration. Everyone loved all the wild life - lots of deer (including a buck) and raccoon! We enjoyed badminton and corn hole. It was great having such a large house and big bedrooms - people were able to escape and get much needed sleep and naps as fit their schedules. It's a great spot - thanks again for all your work to make us feel welcome!"

Extraordinary Experience !!!

We gathered extended family at this gorgeous property. It is hard for me to describe how perfect it was for our family. There is lots of beautifully designed space which allows a larger group to spread out but then there is a central area with a simply glorious kitchen (truly unreal), a huge beautiful table for all to gather and then outdoor space to spread out in. The kitchen is beautifully equipped and easy to use and the outdoor space has a huge grill and more tables. We loved the fire pit at night. I could go on and on. Suffice it to say that we have stayed in many properties over many years and this is the best of all. The property owner and manager were also extraordinary in their help and responsiveness. Many thanks for a fabulous stay!!!
