Nestled in ~5 acres of trees and freshly decorated, the 2 houses easily accommodate different preferences of your group–extended families/friends, multiple generations or small children. Everyone will love hanging out together with their own spaces to retreat to. While the property is secluded, it’s just 5 minutes drive to the historic waterfront shops and restaurants and 15 minutes to city conveniences. Fun fact–this property was part of the original holding of one of the first settlers of Coupeville and had been in the previous owner’s family for 5 generations. We hope to honor that history by sharing the acres of trees along with local touches with our guests. We are constantly curating and updating the home as we explore more ourselves. This is a 5-acre property with 2 separate houses (Rhododendron Loft & Island Hideaway) and this listing is for both homes together. The 2 homes each have its own private entrance, are far enough to ensure privacy & don't share amenities in any way. Front house (aka Rhododendron Loft): a 2 bedroom, 2 bath two level home approximately 1500 sqft. Loft has 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom; 1st floor has the rest of the functional area. Barn/shop: is a flex space for extra parking or to store any bulky items/toys (kayaks, bikes, etc) you are traveling with. Back house (aka Island Hideaway): a 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath one level home approximately 1500 sqft. All rooms are on one level with a flat, accessible path to entry. Amenities in each home: • Kitchen is fully-stocked with appliances, cookware, silverware, basic condiments and coffee and tea • Dining table can seat up to 6 with extension • Workspace/desk WFH area • High quality bedding and linens • Onsite washer and dryer with detergent supplied for your laundry needs • Access to popular streaming TV services • Firewood provided for the wood burning stove Slow down, breathe-in the outside, and explore all that the property has to offer. Walk the Cedar Path, check out the groves of cedars, hemlocks and firs, look for blooming rhododendrons all over the property in the Spring, pick fresh raspberries from the garden (Island Hideaway) in the Summer for breakfast, check trees for apples and pears (Island Hideaway) in the Fall. If you happen to be there when snow falls, the property turns into a winter wonderland! You will have the acres of cedars and evergreens on the property all to yourselves. \*\*About the Reservation\*\* • In booking our home, you consent to completing a third-party identity verification.
