No privacy
House has a private backyard. Day 2 of our stay landscapers walked across the deck with no warning; all the master curtains were open. Luckily I was dressed. For the next three hours we had no privacy at any of the windows. Day 3 (today) they showed up again at 8:30 with blowers and a music speaker, I asked they turn it off. It seems like this could have been coordinated when there were no paying guests. The front door key pad didn’t work, no remote for the garage doors.

Awesome Sunrise View
Beautiful property with lovely outdoor deck. Spacious house with 4 bedrooms with extremely comfortable beds. Spent time at Tulip Festival in Skagit Valley and visited quaint island towns of Langley and Coupeville. Very relaxing.

Peaceful setting with plenty of room for family
Our family of 5 adults had plenty of room in this rental for our long weekend exploring Fidalgo and Whidbey islands. Tucked away on a quiet road, we enjoyed both sunrise and sunset views of Hope Island. And the occasional braying of a donkey, and roosters crowing from the farm below!
It was extremely clean, and with 4 sleeping areas we all had privacy. The kitchen has all the basics, and we appreciated the gas grill and gas fire table on the deck.
The property is only a few miles from Deception Pass state park,which we explored thoroughly. The Lighthouse loop trail is about 2 miles and an easy hike. Adventurous ones will find bigger rocks to climb along the way, but the main trail is easy.
The Shrimp Shack is even closer to the house - with lots of seafood choices and covered outdoor seating. Don't miss Chris' Bakery in Oak Harbor if you come here - fantastic selection of donuts, muffins, breads, breakfast sandwiches.
Anacortes, Langley and Coupeville are cute towns with downtown shopping areas on the waterfront, and plenty of restaurant choices. Much to explore on these two islands - looking forward to our next visit.
