Private Whidbey Island Waterfront Beach Cabin

Enjoy breathtaking views of Puget Sound, Mount Rainier, the Seattle skyline and the North Cascades from this cozy, two-story beach cabin.

This unique property -- Double Bluff Beach Club -- boasts 200 feet of no-bank waterfront on over three acres of beach. Meander 1/4 mile down a private drive and ascend stone stairs to this piece of paradise perched about the trees.

Soak in summer sun from a gorgeous, custom-built deck, or stroll along a sand and driftwood trail to the water's edge. On an enchanted evening, dine beneath the stars or head down to the fire pit to roast marshmallows, to tell stories and to sing songs around a campfire. Just outside the house is a partially covered patio complete with comfortable furniture, a barbecue grill, a dinner bell, a warm outdoor shower and lots of hooks to hang towels and gear from a memorable day at the beach.

Inside you'll find all the comforts of home coupled with unique Island charm. This top-to-bottom remodel is beautiful, bright, and EVERY room has a view! Curl up on the comfy couch with a good book, play board games around the coffee table or simply kick back, take a nap and relax.

The cabin features gleaming, original 1930's wood floors and a fully stocked kitchen/dining area with granite counter tops, bar stools and all-new stainless steel appliances. The family-friendly living room frames picture windows and just beyond it reside a 3/4 bathroom with a granite vanity, a linen closet and the main floor bedroom with a queen bed, new carpet, a built-in closet and that spectacular view!

Descend the spiral staircase to the bunk room. The kiddos will go crazy over two custom bunk beds and two built-in berths, each with its own storage area and night light. The kids' room is complete with puzzles, games and ample room to play. The lower level also features new carpet, a second bedroom with a queen bed and its own private entrance, and a full bath with an over-sized washer and dryer.

DBBC is located at Double Bluff Beach and County Park, a premier spot for outdoor water sports and activities including fishing, crabbing, clamming, kayaking, kiteboarding, skimboarding and paddleboarding. The cabin is minutes away from grocery shopping in Freeland and the Saturday Bayview Farmer's Market (late Apr-Oct). While you are here, be sure to visit Langley -- South Whidbey's charming, seaside village -- for strolling, shopping, whale watching and dining.

Whidbey Island is a gem, home to magical memories and often referred to as 'the shortest distance to far away.' Many have been inspired and rejuvenated by this place, and year after year they continue to return. Double Bluff Beach Club is no different. We think you will LOVE it here!

Valentines Birthday Family Getaway 2024
Had a Great Family Getaway to celebrate Valentines & my wife's Birthday with all of our kids, and our grandson. This property gives you an absolute front row view of Useless Bay on Double Bluff that does not disappoint! THINGS TO KNOW IN ADVANCE!!!We loved our stay, but this property, but it may not be the best choice for those with mobility issues! This home is literally perched on Double Bluff which gives you incredible views, but this requires that you climb up 54 stairs from the beach parking area to access the main door (41 for the lower level). And once you are in the home, the narrow spiral staircase is the only way to get between the upper & lower levels inside. This is not a negative review, as it felt like we were staying in a large treehouse, but something you need to consider based on your travel group!Our Host Paul was EXTREMELY helpful, responsive, and timely when we had questions/concerns/requests before and during our stay! Thank You Double Bluff Beach Club!!!

family trip to Whidbey
This was a great little get away. The views were wonderful, low tides provided time for beachcombing and collecting shells and sand dollars, the fire pit was great to watch the sunsets, the house was comfortable for 4 adults, the owner was responsive to our needs, the steps were a little challenging for us in our 70's but we had young family members to carry our groceries and suitcases! Recommend considering this well located home.

Gorgeous view but takes a hike
The beautiful view was as advertised though packing things up to the cabin takes effort. We enjoyed the deck and grilled twice. If you spent much time in the living room, the furniture wasn't comfortable, but having said that, the queen bed upstairs was very comfortable with a nice view of the water as well.

We take our dog to Double Bluff beach often and have always want to stay at this cabin. It's a beautiful spot with amazing views. Really well set up for our family, and could accommodate a larger group. We loved cooking with the view of the beach and playing games out on the deck.

This house was perfect for our two families. We had a great time at the beach playing & spent a lot of time on the deck playing games / taking in the views. The access to the property includes a lot of stairs to haul your stuff to the house. Overall we had a great stay.

Stay at Useless Bay
This is a quaint comfortable cabin that sits above the beach on the side of a hill. The view is lovely, short walk to a sandy beach which is perfect for walks & scenery. For any guests with physical limitations the stairs will be challenging. Inside the house there is a spiral metal staircase to the basement. We preferred not to use it as it didn’t feel stable. There is a door downstairs to the outside, so we used the outdoor stairs to the upper level. We had issues with the heat not working in a section of the house. A message was sent to the manager but this was not resolved before our departure. There is also a bit of a sewer gas smell downstairs so we slept with the windows open. The cleaning fee seems a bit high since we were tasked with stripping beds, starting laundry, dishes & taking the garbage out. The setting is great, beach is fantastic, and it is in a nice area. Stores close by. It was nice size for the 4 of us (2 couples)

Excellent place, just needs a few things to make it outstanding...
The Double Bluff Beach Club property is excellent, we're already booking another family adventure for July! The proximity to the beach can't be beat, no neighbors anywhere around. High overlook views give a perfect setting for enjoying the scenery. They've got a very cute dog bed and dog blankets w chew toys and other items... excellent touch. The proximity neighborhood is perfect for kids riding bikes (only a portion is 'open' to public, but it's enough for kids to do some laps on smooth asphalt. private drive past signs) The property could use a few items to really make it shine. Seating for meals is limited to the outside deck chairs and table; which isn't a deal if it's nice weather. Otherwise you're sitting at the bar (4 bar seats) or the inside couch. Outdoor table only seats 6. The deck is large, but there's only one small umbrella that only works w the table. A moveable shade umbrella would definitely be an improvement, especially for the Adirondack chairs. Plus side; there are massive trees to that give shade most of the day. The kitchen is equipped but sparse... a few more key items would help: more prep and serving bowls, outdoor bowls for snacks. Some of the supplied items we couldn't find; outdoor foot wash bin, dog bowl for drinking, outside shower wasn't turned on. (we turned on the shower but wasn't much communicated appreciation for saving the owner a trip for the handyman) The outdoor shower is grand; so nice to have a shower and get that incredible view. Unfortunately, shower only produces 'warm' water for some reason; a little cold for younger kids... but warm enough to be tolerable. Refreshing on a hot day for sure. A gate for dogs and kids at the top of the stairs would be a good improvement. Wouldn't recommend the property for families w toddlers, stairs are not perfectly spaced/built so require nimble feet. Deck apron is uneven and easily tripped for young walkers. The lower sleeping area is cute w fun 'cubby' beds for kids... that area is accessed via a spiral stair case; again, not great for newly walking kids. The lower bedroom could use black out shades, as sunrise in the summer is directly into the rooms (5:30am is pretty early for little ones) There's no AirConditioning, but proximity to beach/water provides enough breeze. Parking descriptions don't match the changes made to the property. Updated gravel and parking is a little different, not a big deal but just details.

Wonderful Respite
The cabin is exactly as advertised. The panoramic views are incredible and the situation tranquil and serene. A direct path across the street leads to a dog-friendly beach and we were able to walk for miles at low tide. The cabin itself is cozy, comfortable, and fairly well-appointed without being luxurious. Simole meals can be prepared in the full kitchen and several dining and take options are available within 10-15 minutes’ drive. For us, it was a perfect place for a much-needed get away and we will look to return. n.b. While it was not a problem for us, this rental is not appropriate for those with even modest mobility limitations. Located on a cliff above the beach, there are MANY steps up to the front door and deck area. Also, the interior stairs are a spiral that is both narrow and steep. Access and check out information was provided a couple days prior to departure, which allowed us to prepare appropriately. The host also provided prior notice of a vendor scheduled to come onsite during one of the mornings of our stay and we were able to adjust our plans accordingly.

Wonderful Stay on Whidbey
This property was truly stunning. The location was perfect for exploring the island, and being on the beach was so great. The views from the deck and house are unbeatable. The beds were very comfortable and the house was well-equipped. Loved having a fire on the front lawn with the sounds of the ocean in the background. I know that some people have mentioned the stairs, but they truly are no big deal. We would absolutely recommend this place to stay to others.
