About this house rental

Escape to your enchanting waterfront haven on Whidbey Island, perched on a stunning bluff with beach access just 1 mile into town! Unwind in this private retreat, perched high on an 82' bank, overlooking the serene Saratoga Passage. With panoramic Puget Sound views stretching to the majestic Cascade Mountains, this coastal-flair Colonial home welcomes you with open arms.

Step into a light-filled haven where every glance unveils breathtaking scenery. The open layout seamlessly connects the living, dining, and primary suite to the outdoors. French doors lead to an expansive deck and lush grounds, setting the stage for memorable gatherings with friends. Whether you're basking in natural light in the kitchen, gazing through abundant view windows, or savoring the spectacle of passing boats and occasional whales, this is a haven of relaxation.

Spend leisurely hours on your private deck and lawn, surrounded by pristine landscaping. Inside, large windows frame the ever-changing Sound. Langley's charms await nearby – indulge in beaches, art stores, bookshops, and local dining. Venture further to explore the full allure of Whidbey Island.

Rest comes easy in the main house's 2 large bedrooms with king beds, and a third bedroom boasting 2 xl twin beds. Need more space? Discover extra daybeds, including one in the private den and another upstairs. An inflatable queen bed ensures everyone's comfort. Stay connected with Wi-Fi and enjoy entertainment on 5 TVs with streaming services.

At approximately 2900 sq ft, the Colonial beauty accommodates 6 guests, offering ample room to unwind. The double garage hosts a game room, warmed by a remote-lit propane stove, home to card games and ping pong battles.

Lewis John Carlino, famed screenwriter, once called this retreat home, finding inspiration in the panoramic scenes. Just as he penned masterpieces like "The Great Santini" and "I Never Promised You a Rose Garden," let this haven kindle your own creativity and awe, all while basking in the Puget Sound's embrace. Your story begins here.

AvantStay provides an upscale experience with services that elevate your stay and save time so you can enjoy every moment. Guests have access to a 24/7 support team and a tech-enabled concierge to book services, such as fridge stocking, mid-stay cleanings, and private chefs.

Discover the allure of Whidbey Island, where tranquility meets captivating landscapes. Embraced by the Puget Sound, this paradise invites group travelers to unwind on sandy shores and explore nature's wonders. Quaint villages add to the island's charm, each with a unique character. And when it’s time for adventure, outdoor enthusiasts can embark on adventures from Deception Pass to Ebey's Landing.

There’s quite a bit of space to spread out in this clean, cute rental. Gardens are lovely, kitchen is well stocked (loved the pizza and swag on arrival) and it’s a quick 4 minute drive to downtown

The house itself was beautiful. However, we found a dead rabbit and a bag of trash left by (we believe) the prior guests. The information on the website did not match what was on the binder. When I asked where the router was, they gave me wrong information (I eventually found it). Also, beware of the company they use to confirm ID. They require you to upload an ID and they openly state ion their privacy page that they share it with 3rd parties. Finally, I got a txt upselling - later checkout, which felt like a discount airline charging for every little thing.

We were delighted with the property. It was clean, spacious (for the two couples traveling this time) and had a great view of the water. Very convenient to downtown Langley. Would be perfect for my whole family (3 couples with two children) if the third bedroom had at least a full size bed. Otherwise, perfect.

I was excited about this stay just based on the listing and rave reviews. Im happy to say everything lived up to my expectations. The view and serene setting were so spectacular it didnt matter if it was a rainy day, we turned on the front fireplace and played family board games, drank a cup of coffee, or cozied up with a book. There was ample space and amenities to use. I truly hope we get to come back someday and experience it again.

Stayed here for a weekend with my girlfriends. We were delighted upon arrival to see the place looked just as gorgeous as the photos! Plenty of beds for everyone, a cozy couch for hanging out, a nice dining room for dinners at home, and the outside view is just incomparable. Loved having the Adirondack chairs out for our morning coffee and afternoon wine. We even saw two bald eagles landing in the bluff below the house! The only thing that could make this house better would be a hot tub. We’ll be back!

I’ve stayed in many rentals on Whidbey and this one ranks as the best. The view is stunning rain or shine. The home has a very well appointed kitchen and being a mile walk from the Star grocery store makes it easy to stock the fridge or enjoy takeout. The space is great for families or friend groups with essentially 3 suite areas with full bathrooms. We didn’t get to take advantage of the yard but a sunny day and the bbq would be hard to beat. Fantastic communication via text for easy questions and check out. I’d like to keep this a hidden gem so it’s always available for me lol! But hope you’ll give it a try.
