Sun-filled Home with Stunning Deck and Two Cozy Fireplaces

Adults and children alike will delight in the comfort and simple beauty of our architect-designed beach house getaway. Complete remodel retained the casual feel with added bamboo and cork floors, a spacious, well-appointed kitchen with everything for the chef in your party, and an abundance of windows to connect you to the dramatic outdoors and peaceful tranquility of Whidbey Island. The stunning, covered deck offers year-round relaxation and the ideal place to take in the spectacular sunsets over the harbor while dining outdoors.

Enter the house through a cozy porch and step into the spacious kitchen that opens to the dining and living areas. The dining table accommodates up to 6 people and easy conversation with those preparing the meal at the kitchen island. Beautiful French doors open to the covered deck equipped with a gas barbeque and outdoor seating for six. The living area is anchored by expansive picture windows, two very comfortable leather couches for conversation and those required afternoon naps, and a wood-burning fireplace. Completing the main floor is a queen bedroom with ample built-ins for your clothes and a bathroom with shower.

The inviting area downstairs has two more bedrooms, one with a queen bed and two twin beds in the other. You will be pleasantly surprised by the additional bath that includes a full-sized bathtub and shower as well as another sitting/playroom where you can cozy up with a good book, an evening beverage, and the inviting gas fireplace. The room also has a 55” Ultra HD Home Theater display with ROKU streaming enabled as well as a Blu-ray DVD player, and satellite TV.

Children love to run in our large, unfenced yard and adults appreciate a lazy afternoon in the hammock, the warm outdoor shower, and gathering around the fire pit for s’mores after enjoying a day of beach, activity, exploring, and fun.

Small dogs 30 lbs or less are welcome with a $40 PER PET, PER VISIT. Please contact the owner for more information.

Were only 50 miles from the busy city of Seattle yet feel a lifetime away! Whidbey Island has so much to offer including access to many delicious restaurants, charming shops and galleries in Langley, and a variety of daytrips and outdoor activities. Our friendly beach community on Holmes Harbor is just 4 miles north of Freeland with access to all the amenities of home and a short 15 minutes’ drive from the Mukilteo-Clinton ferry.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, which features a fireplace. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Wireless internet access (surcharge) keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Freeland weekend getaway
We enjoyed our stay immensely. The house exceeded our expectations and was fully equipped with everything we needed down to the utensils and dishes for the kids. The beds were comfortable and the covered deck was great for outdoor dining. The house is located just a short walk to the beach with the perfect sun exposure. The kids also enjoyed playing and running around in the big yard. We would definitely stay here again. The Stewart’s

Family gathering
1st impression of housekeeping was that it is sub par. There was hair in shower, the fridge/freezer has built up 'grime' & has food particles in freezer drawer. The chair cushions need food vacuumed off of them. Black mold/mildew on bath mat in downstairs bath. Broken outdoor games (3 out of 6 mallets were broken). The grill hasn't been cleaned in a while, not that it mattered- there was no propane. The house is located right across from beach entrance, which was nice. Other than feeling insecure due to lack of cleanliness we enjoyed our stay on Whidbey Island.

Great place to stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The community beach is a long, quiet expanse. There are small towns nearby with good restaurants and shops. Be sure to get a fruit pie at Whidbey Pies in Langley. In most listings the pictures are better than what you see when you arrive. Here was just the opposite; the pictures don't do justice to the interior. Suzy did a great job with color selection, coordinating the walls and woodwork. The wall hangings were minimal and tasteful; she didn't feel a need to cover every open space with kitsch. The furniture was nicer than in the houses that are put together as revenue streams, using furniture picked up at Habitat. Loved the fireplace; built a fire every night.

Everything is as presented in the profile - even better. The house was pristine and you really feel like you are in a home rather than a cookie cutter set up. Our group consisted of 5 adults and I wanted to be sure that we had ample comfortable seating when hanging out. This place fit the bill perfectly. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking wonderful meals. Beds are very comfortable and with quality linens. Beautiful view and easy access to the beach. Highly recommended.

Work retreat
The house is beautiful and in a great location, with water views. It seems that the owners thought of every last detail in how they appointed the home. I’ve never seen such a great Fiestaware collection! I loved the teal decorating accents and the comfortable furniture. Even though we were on a work related retreat, it felt like a vacation.

A lovely place to get away
This home was clean and comfortable with great indoor and outdoor spaces to relax and enjoy! The highlight for us was the morning walks (1/2 block) down to the beautiful neighborhood beach… low tide… shells, rocks, driftwood, tide pools… Walking the beach was a lovely way to start the day! We enjoyed visiting the island’s unique towns, parks and beaches and the beautiful landscape and bay views. Shopping at Honey Bear in Coopeville was a fun experience! The whale watching tour out of Anacortes was another highlight! There was good food at Gordon’s on Blueberry Hill, Flower House Cafe, and Whidbey Doughnuts! There was also a great market in Freedom and a well-equipped kitchen for eating in! Overall, we had a wonderful, relaxing time away! We hope to visit again!

The Best!
This house lived up to the description and so much more! Beautiful house in terrific location steps from the water on a lovely large lot. The indoor and outdoor spaces are all thoughtfully designed. The layout of the house was so perfect for our family as we spent the long weekend preparing for and celebrating our daughter's wedding at Wayfarer on the island. The hosts are so kind, prompt and thoughtful in their communication and they have thought of absolutely everything you might possibly need. This place would suit a family with young children, a bunch of friends looking for a fun getaway or, like us, a family of adults. Such a cozy and inviting place in every regard.....we will be back!

Whidbey wedding
This house was perfect for our week long stay for my son's wedding on south Whidbey. Very clean, well appointed kitchen and furnishings, comfortable beds, ample towels and linens, great deck off the kitchen, lovely views of Holmes Harbor. Pleasant landscaping. Visited by deer and bunnies in the mornings. We were centrally located to all our other relatives and friends who were in for the wedding and close to the wedding venue. Just a lovely stay.
