Come to Whidbey Island and relax in this completely remodeled 'Cabin' with an extraordinary view of the harbor, city and mountains! Close enough to town to enjoy all the conveniences of shopping, restaurants, etc. but feels isolated to enjoy the peace and quiet for your island getaway! Get ready to relax in the hot tub and then enjoy a nice fire in the fire pit on the patio!
The Cabin is a 3 bedroom 2 bath home with a patio and hot tub. The views are amazing of Mt. Baker, the harbor and the city lights at night! It’s a home situated on a private drive lined with fir trees so it feels as if you’re in the mountains! There is plenty of parking right in front of The Cabin (up to the planters that are on the driveway). Also on the property (but not accessible to guests) are a shop with a gravel drive leading to it and the area behind the shop used for storing building supplies and other items which could be dangerous and that is why guests are asked to please avoid this area. The cabin itself, parking area, back deck, front porch area and hot tub should be plenty of space to spread out, relax and enjoy your time at The Cabin!

Deception Pass Bridge (one of the most photographed!) and the surrounding area is a must to explore!
PBY Museum is really well done with the history of Oak Harbor AND there is a plane to see in real life!
Fort Ebey and Fort Casey (from WW2) are just a short drive away.
Historic Coupeville (the oldest city is Washington) is just 10 miles south.
Anacortes, on Fidalgo Island is fun to explore.
Port Townsend (on the Olympic Peninsula is a fun ferry ride (reservations are recommended for that ferry unless you walk on).
The Cabin, front porch, designated parking area, back deck and hot tub is completely yours for your entire stay!
It's likely you won't see me during your stay, which allows you more privacy and convenience. However, I'm usually here (or my amazing co-host is!) anytime you need to reach out. If you need anything or have questions, just send us a message via the Airbnb message center and we’ll respond as quickly as we can!
This Cabin is located on a private road with only 4 other houses. The entrance is lined with fir trees making if feel like you're driving into a forest and then it opens out into a clearing where the Cabin and the other houses are located. It is a quiet neighborhood although you can occasionally hear children in the distance having a good time. This is also a military community with NASWI (Naval Air Station Whidbey Island) located just a few miles north which means that you may hear the occasional jet flying as they are doing their training. We love our pilots and are super happy to hear that 'Sound of Freedom'!
Getting to the Cabin is fairly straight forward and there is plenty of parking in front and on the side of the house.
