Beautiful Waterfront Stay with Private Beach Access
We stayed four nights and loved how peaceful and relaxing this house was. It’s spacious with a large kitchen, cozy living room, and a huge deck overlooking Penn Cove. The downstairs master bedroom opens to a private hot tub, swing, and stairs to the beach — perfect for exploring tidepools, finding shells, and watching boats go by.The bed was incredibly comfortable (best we’ve slept on in a rental), and both the jetted tub and hot tub were great for unwinding. Even without A/C, the breeze off the water kept things cool most of the time.There were a few small downsides: no screens on some windows, bright sun in the living room during late afternoon, a dim TV, and a slight musty smell downstairs on arrival — but none were dealbreakers.Overall, it’s a relaxing, well-located home with unbeatable views and direct beach access. We'd definitely stay here again.

It was a wonderful property with excellent property management. We loved the complimentary pizza and the views from the hot tub. The only thing was that we couldn't really do that we wanted to was sit out on the deck because the outside chairs and cushions all had bird poop all over them. Otherwise our trip was great!

Great little honeymoon spot!
This is a beautiful home, steps from the beach! The house was very clean and had helpful guiding notes throughout. It was great to be able to walk the beach with the dog (we saw or heard seals every day!) and it feels very private for just the three of us. Movies in front of the fireplace with a lovely view out the window. The porch swing was a nice treat! So fun to be able to sit out at night and check out the stars with my honey. :-)
We were very thankful for the note about needing a flashlight if you arrive after dark as it is dark until the motion sensor light comes on.
This was a lovely place to stay and we can't wait to come back!

Nice and peaceful trip
This home is just as advertised. Great views of Penn Cove, very private beach (when the tide is out), and enough amenities all around. We really enjoyed the patio fireplace and having access to the beach, it was great. Great communication with the property managers as well.
Only non-ideal items were the parking...it's right off a popular road so pulling out isn't idea. They also don't have basic cable, so it was a bummer when we could not watch the College Football Playoff. But, we still had a great stay and it's a great house.

Needs some TLC
This rental is handled by a property management company instead of being lovingly maintained by a passionate owner. Details that an individual owner would have probably taken care of are not tended to by this management company. An example is the box of dusty, disheveled DVD's which was really unappealing or the random box of puzzle pieces and random game pieces.
There is a binder with information but could be more tailored to that specific property for the sake of clarity.
We were excited to sit in front of the fire and look at the water but there is a switch (they are everywhere, it's kind of a hassle to get to know what switch does what) that has a note on it that says it HAS to be on when the fireplace is on. Problem is, it makes a terrible motor sound. The opposite of relaxing!
When we first came in it smelled musty but we didn't notice it after that. We did see several pee stains from pets on the carpet, which was a turn off.
PROS: Hot tub is really great, there are plenty of towels to go around, and there is a lot of sunlight.

Views, privacy, and a sound-side playground!
Grandparents to 6 year old stayed and all loved this place. The steps down to the shore were awesome. I was thinking they might be a bit steep or rickety but not at all! They led down to an awesome lawn shielded by the bulkhead for sitting and enjoying the shore regardless of the tide. My daughter endlessly loved spotting crabs and seals. The views, sunset and sunrises were spectacular, especially from the hot tub. Watching the penn cove mussel harvesting was interesting. It’s so close to Coupeville but also super private. We didn’t see another soul on the shore the entire stay. House had everything we need and was a comfortable retreat. Can’t wait to return!

Beautiful house and location
The house was exactly as the photos showed. It has a beautiful view. All the bed were comfy, even the bed in the loft. Although difficult to climb up the ladder. It was awesome to wake up, have your coffee and walk along the bay. There was a very musty smell in the down stairs. Not alot of towels for the amount of guests it sleeps. But there were specific hot tub towels. Only 2 wash clothes. The kitchen was great, fully stocked with dishes. The water pressure however isn't very strong at all. Tough for washing shampoo out of your hair. But all in all a great experience.

Evans Home on Penn Cove
We had a fabulous stay at this home. Took our paddle board out on the bay, kayaked to the Captain Whidbey for lunch, rode our bikes to the ferry terminal and enjoyed watching the seals sun bathe. We want to clarify that one bathroom is downstairs between the two bedrooms and the second bathroom is on the main floor. The third bedroom is a loft up very steep stairs. So can be challenging if you need to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. Overall, we loved the Evans home and the location is wonderful!

Comfortable home and great location
We enjoyed our stay at this home. However, the owners request that the heat be turned down to 50 degrees so the lower bedrooms smelled musty. The maintenance staff needed to wash the exterior downstairs windows as they were extremely dirty. The kitchen is well maintained with lots of dishes and cookware. However, there were only 2 coffee mugs so perhaps they can be replenished. I also suggest that you add a pancake grill. The outdoor BBQ was very clean and we used it on two occasions. The home is within walking distance to town and has a wonderful view!

Well stocked house, unusable hot tub
Went up for a few days over spring break with my 9 and 12 year olds. In general the house was decently clean compared to other VRBOs we have stayed in. Linens are getting worn/ stained and need to be replaced soon. It was also well stocked with the basics so we didn’t have to run to the store for stuff like paper towels and coffee filters, which was much appreciated. They could use upgrades on some items (the hairdryer didn’t have any heat) and we were disappointed the hot tub was as dirty as it was - we rented the house to test out our new paddle boards out back (house was set up great for that!) but with the chilly weather we really wanted the hot tub at the end of the day and it was so dirty even my 9 yr old wouldn’t get in it. We called for service and I spoke to a woman at the rental agency who said a service company would come out, but they never showed up.
