The home was exactly as pictured. Very clean and had just the right sized spaces. Looking out over the lake from every window was such a treat! It was absolutely breathtaking!
We were able to take the little row boat out for a turn in the lake and it was fun seeing the families and people from other homes out there too!
It was very relaxing to be so close to the lake and amazing to watch hawks diving for their dinner, fish jumping, bunnies and chipmunks and Douglas’ squirrels in the yard, and bats at night!
Definitely want to stay there again! Our only complaint was that there was zero cell service. If we had had an emergency, I don’t know what we would have done.

Great swimming, fishing and chillaxing on the lake!

We really enjoyed this Goss Lake home. The property is quiet and secluded. Beautiful home with amazing views of the lake. It was clean and comfortable. The hosts were excellent and available. Would stay here again for sure. Definitely recommend.

This was a beautiful setting, surrounded by forest and looking out over the lake. The house was comfortable. The only issue was spotty cell service. Otherwise, it was cozy and comfy!

This is a truly stunning home on a lovely lake. Beautifully decorated and super clean. It sits high up on a hill overlooking the lake through the trees. It's mostly very quiet as only electric motors are allowed on the lake. However there are many houses around the lake and a public access, and voices do travel. That said, I am super noise sensitive and I didn't have any problems with the noise levels. A huge plus is the property management company. They are very communicative and clearly take excellent care of the property. Plus there's a rowboat! I would return in a heartbeat.

Great property and owner has thought of everything needed to enjoy your stay. Loved having access to the boat and provided life vests to fish and explore the lake.

Reviewer Comments:
We again enjoyed our long stay at the chalet and access to pristine Goss lake. It is a fun place for adults and grandkids of all ages who enjoy the outdoors. We took full advantage of dock access for swimming and row boat. We appreciated the cleanliness of the cabin upon arrival and responsiveness of Tara Vacation Rental staff to our questions or concerns.

This is my second visit and I hope to have many more. It’s a wonderful place to recharge! The kitchen is well appointed and the house looks just like the photos- gorgeous! I enjoyed sitting on the dock and watching the birds. The house is not far from Langley, which is filled with cute shops and some great restaurants. Would recommend in a heartbeat!

We visited this property with another family and both of us have young children. The master bedroom has a cutout that opens to the main living area and the master bedroom has no door. Other than those two oddities the property was well maintained and spectacular. The pictures do not do it justice. A very beautiful property.

I never leave reviews but this might be the best vacation rental I've ever stayed in. Immaculately clean and comfortable, all of the supplies and amenities we needed, and the most gorgeous, private, restful setting. Loved the updated cabin feel and the casual, thrifty/chic feel of the decor.
10.0 / 10.0
Pictures may not capture just how serene and beautiful the landscape surrounding this house is. The house, furniture & contents are of solid, quality materials. We found the bed & sofa to be very comfortable. Well stocked kitchen, with really good cookware & at least one mostly sharp knife (rare!). Overall, very clean. Although there were a couple of “ick” areas. But I suspect these were a random overlooked or not visible, due to very dim lighting in the kitchen. That said, this house is probably the closest to clean out of all the properties we’ve rented…and I’m very particular. One suggestion might be to install higher wattage/brighter bulbs in kitchen fixtures. I found it difficult to clean up after dinner so ended up waiting until morning to clean counters & stove top & each day.

Lovely little hideaway on Goss Lake. I only wish we could have stayed longer! Only note is there is no shampoo in the lower shower, so bring your own!

I've had this house on my Whidbey Trip Board for a number of years, but hadn't stayed there because I thought it looked a bit funky in the photos. Wrong! Everything was perfect and upscale and the lake view and privacy were amazing. I'll be back!

Overall a great place, very comfortable and beautifully decorated. The heating instructions were very confusing and could be made much clearer, and it was cold in the main living area until the gas fire had been going for a while. My only other suggestion would be cotton bed linen! The views over the lake were gorgeous and there’s plenty to do around Langley and Coupeville. We also did a day trip to Deception Pass which was stunning. One of my favorite places I’ve stayed in and I would definitely stay again.

I stayed in the chalet four years ago. I absolutely loved it. I had to come back for a second time, and I was not disappointed. While I was sitting on the upper deck one morning, enjoying a cup of coffee, an owl landed in the tree to my left. I couldn't believe it. Truly enjoyed the birds and the deer. Tranquility at its finest!

Great location with plenty to do. ping pong was great. Fishing and trail biking at Putney park nearby. Very nice house. Needs some spider maintenance in lower level. But overall great place with all that was needed. Had a great weekend! Thank you

A little tucked away gem. Close drive to Langley for good dining, groceries, and that island feel. Great views from the two bedrooms, a cozy deck to enjoy coffee and a book, and a nice woodsy walk down to the dock. Life jackets were available and the adult kids spent hours out on the lake in the rowboat and swimming.

This is our 2nd time visiting this beautiful cabin and it was perfect for everything we wanted to do. We were able to work remote on the wifi and vacation at the same time. We had good cell service this trip as well. The cabin is always very clean and full of great artwork from around the area. They even provide a little row boat with life jackets! The resident eagles, hummingbirds, and owls made it the perfect spot for birding. Tara Property Management was easy to work with and they made sure our stay was great. Thank you!

We had a wonderful time at this cabin! The view was stunning. Everyone in our party (ages 5-52) had so much fun. Exploring the lake in the rowboat, watching a bald eagle soaring above the tree line, beach combing nearby… the list goes on. We will definitely try to make it back.
