Waterfront on Whidbey Island
We had a wonderful time staying at your waterfront home. The views of the sunrise over the water each morning were amazing. Your cozy home is conveniently situated on the Island and the perfect location to return to after days spent exploring & adventuring.

Great View and Location
This house had an amazing view of the puget sound. It was also a close drive to Freeland, Langley and Clinton, so it was easy to hop around Whidbey Island. We appreciated the fully stocked kitchen and the very fancy, retro stove (that was a cool touch).

Simply beautiful
The property was lovely and well maintained. It is a bit isolated and you will need a car to do anything other than walk along the beach. The stairs will add years to your life though.

Not up to what we paid
There was pollen accumulation on the deck/chairs to the point we were unable to comfortably enjoy the deck. There was no hand soap in the upstairs bathroom, the hide-a-bed sheets had a yellow stain, the pizza in the fridge had no expiration date and looked old, the chalkboard had a 'welcome' for a different couple and the overall smell of the house was quite stale/musty. Some of the issues are little and if one or two were present would not be a problem, but comparing the current state to the pictures we saw when purchased we do not feel like it was worth the price we paid. We made the most of our trip and found some nice places nearby to access the beach and eat, but it the state of the house was very unfortunate and is not what you expect when booking a vacation rental. Very disappointed in AvantStay overall and we will most likely be avoiding houses managed by you guys in the future. The lady that assisted was nice but overall didn't want to be dealing with these issues while we were staying at the house.

Perfect charm
We spent the weekend in this hidden gem, full of charm! Beautiful views of the water off the deck with water access (149 steps leading down to be exact). Rooms were inviting and very cozy Gorgeous setting and the perfect jumpoff place to explore the island. Located right by Meerkerk Gardens. One thing to note: the king size bed on a platform is quite high to get in. Communication with owners was excellent! Would love to stay again and highly recommend!

Quiet respite with ideal island access.
This property was ideal for my husband and I to escape the busyness and noise of our everyday lives, share the space with our visiting adult daughter, and tour the island visiting all points of attraction in just four days. The only challenge faced was the trundle bed in guest room becoming a king bed. Unclear as to a successful set ip for that. We accommodated by simply using the twin mattress pull out on the floor. Otherwise, the space was incredible, the view and deck superb, the cleanliness and facilities on point.
