The house was clean, well equipped, and as described in the listing. We found it to be very comfortable for our group of seven family members. We liked the location and communication with the owner was excellent. We definitely would recommend this home to others.

MidCentury Modern Cabin in the Woods

This home is beautiful and tucked away in a woody neighborhood. It is spacious and well-appointed. I loved the view from all the balconies. You can see the water amongst all the trees. The home is well-loved and gorgeous. (meaning you can tell that it's not brand new, but that doesn't matter because it's very cool looking) I love that it's not a white and grey box. There were records to play and so many games available. The art on the wall is adorable. I only wish we'd had more time there. It's conveniently located to Deception Pass. It's far enough north of the military base that you aren't bothered by the planes on maneuvers. But we could see them as we drove north through Whidbey if that's something you'd like to see. I'd recommend it to anyone.

The only thing I have to say is it needs a new coffee pot and more pans or at least a griddle to cook pancakes. Other then that it was a very nice house.

First overnight for new parents and grandparents

We had a lovely two-night stay. The setting is lovely as is the house, which had plenty of room and comfy beds for five adults and the kitchen had what we needed. Both Oak Harbor and Anacortes are easy to get to, as is the state park. On the way home we all took a quick trip to Port Townsend via the ferry (walked on). The baby had a great time; future adventures await.

Beautiful and comfortable home

This is a lovely home with everything that we needed. Very comfortable, very scenic, well furnished. We were a very small group, there’s plenty of space for two families. Small fenced dog area right outside the front door was very convenient for our super senior pup. 2yo enjoyed the views!

Beautiful house with perfect spaces!

Perfect house for a family get away. Living space had a spot for everyone to do what they liked; puzzles, reading, playing cards and listening to music. Beautifully decorated and comfortable furniture and beds. Perfect distance to great hikes. Host was responsive and pleasant.

Beautiful and Comfortable Home!

We used this as a second venue (mostly overnights) for a reunion of 17 people split between these two nearby homes. This home was welcoming, beautiful, and easy to live in, with a gorgeous view of the bay as well as the forested grounds below. When we ran into a problem our host worked very hard to make it right and all worked out in the end. We would have liked to have access codes for the garage so we could store bicycles more easily.

Whidbey Forest Home

We really enjoyed our stay at the forest home. Our crew of 3 couples, a single and an infant were very comfortable. We only had two complaints that are worth mentioning: 1) NO BBQ. We couldn't believe there is not a BBQ at this home. 2) The kitchen is not very well stocked in terms of cooking and prep ware. It was enough, but barely.

Beautiful house and location

This house and location were perfect for our family. I knew I wanted to stay on an island but wanted have easy access to other areas such as Anacortes where our whale tour was departing from. The house had everything we needed and my young kids loved the backyard and the deer that visited daily. You have amazing views off the deck, especially the uppermost deck, which isnt in the pictures. I had a couple of questions, which were responded to quickly. It was close to several beach areas, a small grocery store, and a handful of food places. It was the perfect getaway.
