Hot tub on the Beach with Super Fast Wi-Fi at Anchor Shores

Welcome to Anchor Shores! We've recently remodeled the entire home, making this the most up-to-date home on the beach!

You can listen to the ocean rumble on the beach right outside our 4000 square foot, 4 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom beachfront home. No need to walk to the ocean – just a few steps over the rock bulkhead and you’re already there! Look at the photos to see how close the beach really is. If you're not into rock climbing, you can access the beach from the park just a few blocks south.

What is the view really like? You will look due west down the Strait of Juan de Fuca as the sun sets while looking south to the Olympic Peninsula, northwest to the San Juan Islands and north to Anacortes. You can even see the lights of Victoria, BC at night!

All four bedrooms are upstairs. The primary bedroom has a king-sized bed and it's own separate bathroom. The bunk room has two queen beds on the ground and two twin XL beds above. The third bedroom has a king-sized bed. The fourth bedroom has a queen-sized bed and it's own separate bathroom. An additional full bath is in the hallway directly across from bedrooms #2 & #3.

Each bedroom opens up to an upstairs deck - excellent for whale, dolphin and sunset watching. Our home will comfortably sleep twelve – perfect for two to three families. Two of the bedrooms have their own bathroom suites, and another bathroom off the hallway serves the remaining bedrooms.

Anchor Shores comes complete with all high thread count linens, a fully equipped kitchen, large capacity washer and dryer, parking for up to four cars, high speed Internet and WiFi, cable access to over 220 channels and two fully Internet enabled HDTVs - one is a 75” flat-screen in the living room and the other is a 50” flat screen in the kids’ media room.

The main floor features a warm, open kitchen with flat cooktop facing the water; a dining room with seating for twelve; a large, open living room with seating for everyone, and separate seating areas for book reading or ocean watching.

Our home away from home is located just minutes from Oak Harbor, but secluded from the noise of the city. Close by are the world famous Gallery Golf Course, Fort Ebey State Park, Deception Pass State Park, and the ferry from Coupeville to Port Townsend on the Olympic Peninsula.

And if you're looking for something to eat, you can cook for yourself in the fully appointed kitchen while watching the waves crash on the beach, or you can enjoy one of our favorite local restaurants.

The best part about Anchor Shores is that Whidbey Island has some of the lowest rainfall in Washington State, making any time of the year right for a Pacific Northwest vacation. While many parts of Washington experience annual rainfall of 30” or more (220” in the Olympic Rain Forest), Whidbey Island will enjoy less than 20” of rain each year since it is located in the Olympic Mountain Rain Shadow.

We do have a no pet policy, including hypoallergenic animals, and this is especially important due to severe allergies in our family.

Why not take in the ocean and the views for a most relaxing and memorable vacation?

Come and enjoy the spellbinding effects of sun, surf and sea breezes that are never further than your front doors. Anchor Shores on the way to experience the best of the ocean.

Beautiful Home on the Harbor
The property was incredible. It is very well maintained and set up really well for vacationers (master bath has bath bombs and epsom salts, rooms have Keurigs inside of them). The owners were very communicative and the photos are really accurate to the property.

We loved the trip. We had 6 kids ranging from 3-11 and they loved the place with the twirly stairs/bunk beds/ and amazing selection of board games. The host was very helpful in communicating on getting the cable to work as well!

Great place
11 friends, a weekend getaway, with hiking, nights in the hot tub and a ton of adult fun! This home is well placed away from neighbors so we didn’t have issues with noise complaints (although we weren’t being overtly loud except for music). Great getaway for friends and for families alike.

This is a beautiful location with such cozy amenities. There are so many places to sit and read, watch tv, look at the water, etc. It is very quiet, with the exception of the sound of the waves, which is lovely.

Lovely Property for a Family Reunion
We were pleasantly surprised by a couple things not pictured. There is a nice wide staircase to carry your luggage to the second floor and acute little T.V. room up there also. It would be a privilege to stay here again.

Beach House
Great house to spend a few days with family at. It sits right on the beach. We loved watching and hearing the waves crash onto the shore and going for walks in the sand. Inside of house was clean, well stocked and decorated nicely. House is close to Deception Pass which is beautiful! Lots to see on Whidbey Island. I'll definitely be back.

Amazing spot
I had no idea you could get crashing waves in Washington. Everything about this place was fantastic--the location, the size, the layout, the amenities. It was fully outfitted for everything we needed to cook and care for 10 people, done with a great deal of care and thought. Highly recommend (so long as you don't want to book when we want to be there!)

Beautiful home with plenty of room and great location
We loved this house! We rented it for 12 adults for Ragnar and we could not have asked for a better house. There was plenty of room for all of us to hang out with all the different seating areas and we slept well in the beds falling asleep to the sounds of the water. We would definitely recommend it and if we do the race again next year, we would love to come back!

Wonderful ending to a weird summer
Location is spectacular.Spacious house with lots of room for family activities and quiet alone time. Fully appointed kitchen and lots of little extras. Peaceful spot on the ocean close to many activities. Wet and wild wave watching at high tide. Great for watch marine life, including Shelly the hermit crab adopted by the grandkids for the week.

Relaxing getaway
House is very large, lots of space for everyone to spread out. Master bath shower was heavenly. Views were beautiful. Only downsides were that the house was very cold when we arrived and it took quite a while to get the bottom floor comfortably. We also ran out of hot water for showers but we did have a lot of people bathing in a row. Overall a great couple days on Whidbey and the house was a good fit for our group.
