Chill and quiet
Great little cabin, super quiet. Just exactly the weekend we were looking for. Good home base to go explore the rest of the island.

Water View
It was nice and quiet but we didn't realize from the online pictures that it was a mother-in-law house on the property with the main house just a few feet away. We didn't feel like we could go outside and enjoy the view or the deck because the main house was right there. There is no privacy. If you don't mind no privacy it was perfect! Really close to town.

It was indeed a cozy cottage for a relaxing getaway for a couple. Clean, well-stocked and lovely decor. The view was gorgeous. A propane grill on the deck would have been a nice addition.

Beautiful view
We arrived after 12 hours of travel and there was no soap or shampoo of any kind to take a shower. We tried to contact mgmt but their software is so limited, that we had to write to Vacasa via email and they didn't seem to be able to receive the full email, so they couldn't resolve anything, despite it being a very small issue. Ours was only a 2-day stay and we had a packed schedule, so we found it disappointing to have to go find instant coffee, water, and shampoo just to start our day, which resulted in taking a later ferry to Port Townsend. It would have been nice to have a warmer welcome. The place was cute and the view beautiful. We will not return here in the future, however.

Fantastic Island Getaway
From the moment we drove onto the property we were impressed. Everything was perfect. The landscaping, the cottage, and the VIEW!! We couldnt have been more satisfied with this quaint island cottage.

Only disappointment
We loved the place and the owner. I was not able to stay the 1st night as I got turned away at the port Townsend ferry & it was too late to drive the distance with another ferry. When I spoke to someone on the phone, there was mention of some possible compensation for me & no one has contacted me about this. Please let me know. Thank you, Jackie Conant

Great little getaway for 2!
Perfect spot for a couple to get away for a few days! The view is amazing! The cottage is well kept and had everything that we needed.

Cozy it was!
Loved the location, the privacy, the quiet. Would love to visit again when it is warmer as we only sat outside one time due to the temperature.

Stay near Langley
It was just the right size for the 2 of us and the location was perfect. We had to drive to get to the beach but the beach was beautiful. The house was in a quiet residential area but close to Langley where we found good eats and shopping. We would highly recommend and are looking forward to another stay.

Lovely spot
This cottage is perfect for two. It is small but efficient and beautifully appointed. The small deck with chairs is ideal for a late afternoon "happy hour", with nice views over Puget Sound. We loved the walk down to and along the private beach nearby. The kitchen was well furnished and included an induction hot plate, which we hadn't expected but was very nice to have. It would have been nice to be closer to Langley, but I am not sure we could have found as nice a spot any closer.

Wonderful Whidbey Weekend
My husband and I enjoyed a lovely weekend on the Island and were delighted to have this cottage as our home base! The setting is peaceful and pretty with easy access to Langley and Freeland as well as the highway to the rest of the Island!

Cute cozy cottage with fabulous outdoor deck and views. We spent most of the day just hanging out on the deck and exploring nearby Langley later in the day. We would definitely return.

Sandra`s cabin is a lovely little retreat on Whidbey Island. The cabin is adorable and the view is lovely. Tall ceilings and a skylight make give this cozy cabin a roomy feeling. The kitchen is small but well-appointed. Sandra is a wonderful and accommodating host. She had Clorox wipes and antibacterial cleaner waiting for us on arrival - now those are amenities we can all appreciate these days.

The cottage is strong on comfort, quiet and access to nature. The owner, who lives nearby, is friendly and responsive but not intrusive. The agreeable ambience is enhanced by interesting art, tasteful furnishings, a living room skylight, and a shoreline view from the bedroom (better than a flat-screen any day). All the important amenities are quite adequately provided, including a restful bed, thermostat-controlled heat, strong wi-fi signal, prompt and plentiful hot water, a pleasant shower-tub, and plenty of towels. There are nice extras as well, such as an Echo Dot and a spare smart phone charger. A pair of binoculars is thoughtfully provided for help in spotting orca whales from the lawn or from one of the island’s beautiful state parks. The cetaceans did not cooperate during my visit, but at Deception Pass State Park a bald eagle briefly lingered in the lens

The cottage is calm, peaceful, and well appointed, from mint chocolates on the bed to the cozy chenille blanket on the couch. Sandra is extremely thoughtful and responsive and the location is a quiet gem just outside the bustle of downtown Langley.
