This secluded and very cozy Whidbey Island cottage is the perfect romantic getaway for two! Start each day by taking in views of the forest through French doors in your bedroom. The kitchenette is equipped with all the amenities you need for light cooking, including a two-burner cooktop, a toaster oven, a microwave, a toaster, and a coffee maker. Outside, the surrounding trees make you feel far away from it all. And in the evenings, the firepit (be sure to bring some firewood) is the perfect place to sit and watch the stars come out overhead.

The avid golfer will love playing Holmes Harbor Golf Club and Useless Bay Golf & Country Club, both of which are within a short drive. For a beautiful waterfront and hiking trails, head to South Whidbey State Park. Or, grab a glass of wine at Holmes Harbor Cellars and check their website for seasonal events.

Cottage in the woods
Overall a great property. Comfortable and very quiet. Lots of wildlife to see including bunnies and grouse. Only a couple of minor problems. Main entrance to property is hard to find. Only one small microwave safe bowl, nothing else was safe for use in the microwave. Lastly there was a kurig coffee maker but no mention of bringing your own k- cups.

Birthday/Couples get-away
Absolutely stellar accommodations, fit our needs completely! We spent a good portion of our time exploring the local sights/scene but getting back was a breeze. While weather didn’t really permit the use of the fire pit (due to precipitation/allergies), this was exactly the type of location/facility that my wife and I needed!!!

Was perfect for just what we needed, A little quiet time away from the city near the water. It is on someone’s property but it is secluded and away from the main house where there is plenty of privacy! I would definitely stay here again!

Lovely private house.
Rented on the 2 hottest nights so far this summer. No AC and only a ceiling fan that you couldn’t feel. Very hot. Would have helped to have an extra fan. Could have left the French doors open but there was no screen so bugs, mosquitoes were flying in so had to leave them closed. On cool nights wouldn’t be a problem. Lovely spot, still had a fun stay.

Beautiful, with just a few issues
Overall, we loved our stay here. It's a beautiful little jewel box of a house in a beautiful field adjacent to the owner's house and behind their large shed. Kitchen supplies were adequate, the place was clean and looked brand new, with a comfy, spacious, warm bed, great TV, clean bathroom. Strangely, when we requested more toilet paper for our three-day stay, Vacasa responded that they only provide a "starter amount," and we would be required to provide any further toilet paper if we needed it. Fortunately, we ran across the owner when he stopped by to admire my husband's scooter, and he gladly provided us with more toilet paper! We enjoyed an evening fire in the outdoor firepit (remembered to bring our own firewood); I would just recommend that the house add screens. The house heated up with the shower and hot weather, but we didn't want to leave doors open to avoid mosquitoes.

Nice and quiet
The property was great, private, and peaceful. The only thing I would suggest is possibly having Orkin or another company spray the property for Carpenter Ants. There were quite a bit that were out and about on the floors, wish some on the walls, and some on the side dressers. Other than that, it was great.

Peaceful time away
Cozy cabin - kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom on a grassy area. Tucked away from the only visible house, the windows and deck open onto a lawn before the forest. No traffic noise - a wonderful place to take a breath and relax for a few days.
