Camano Island treasure
Husband and I enjoyed our short visit at this well appointed and comfortable home. The view is stunning and the location suited our day trips to see tulips and explore the islands. The location is great and enjoyed our time their depite not able to access the beach as the HOA added a lock that host was not aware of.

Quiet, Comfy and Lovely View
This is our 2nd stay in this home and this time we brought our daughter and grandson. It is as represented in pictures and was a very clean, comfy and well supplied home. The beds were comfy, the lines were of nice quality, the view wonderful and the location was convenient for our trip to parks and into Stanwood. The kitchen is supplied with great cookware and dishes and table settings. The management was easy to work with for registering,instructions for the home and then and leaving the location. We look forward to another visit in the future. Retired Seattle Couple

Amazing house with an amazing view
This house was perfect for a small family Thanksgiving. We stayed 4 nights and it had everything we needed for maximum comfort and enjoyment. The kitchen is completely well stocked with everything including three ways to make coffee (nespresso, drip, or keureg).
The house is immaculate and extremely comfortable. I would definitely recommend it and I would stay again.

Stunning home inside. Very clean and comfortable. The beds and pillows were great. We were lucky enough to be there on the Fourth of July. The neighborhood was really putting in a show. Sat on the deck and enjoyed the fireworks from all angles. Overall we have no complaints.

Perfect getaway spot
Lovely home in fantastic condition throughout! Well appointed in every way - kitchen, baths, living rooms, outdoor. A nice quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city, with plenty of room to spread out. We enjoyed walking down the hill to the small beach area we had access to and spent a good deal of time on the deck soaking in the view. Lots of great information in the home for exploring Camano - looking forward to a return trip already!

Camano Island
This was a beautiful, clean, comfortable property that we hated to leave. If I were ever in this area again, I would be happy to rent it again. The photos are accurate as shown. Our favorite place was the deck off the main living area. We spent a lot of time there, enjoying sunsets and morning coffee. We loved the comfortable outdoor furniture and the outdoor gas fireplace.
There was only three of us, but this would be very comfortable for a much larger party. The only thing I can think of that was missing was the corkscrew! Which we were able to buy at the camp store just down the road. There were plenty of small stores, coffee shops and restaurants a short drive away.
I don’t recommend walking on the beach directly in front of the house. I would recommend going to the state parks that are very close by. The views from the deck were fabulous so we were happy to spend a lot of our time there.

Beautiful View of the Ocean
We had a great stay and loved the view. We enjoyed having our coffee and staring out at the ocean. The Nespresso machine was a great add on and lots of tea options to choose from. A spacious house for us to enjoy. We enjoyed the fire table outside and the smores that were provided. The only downfall was there is no laundry (with kids we always seem to need it) which I didn't read before that it wasn't provided, my mistake. I assumed there was laundry just because everywhere we have stayed provided it, but a lesson learned and we made do. We had a great stay all in all.
