Whidbey withe the the family
Great time and weather was outstanding after coming from tripple digit heat in Los Angeles. Plenty of sight seeing and food options. Be prepared long waits for ferry between Clinton and Mukilteo, otherwise great time.

Nice place! Fast WiFi and overall a very clean, recently remodeled house with lots of space, a great deck,and a view of Holmes Harbor. Watch out for the front door, it locks automatically and uses a classic keyed entry, rather than code entry. This resulted in me locking myself out (my fault entirely for not paying attention). The Vacasa staff were great at bringing a 2nd key within a few hours so it wasn't a huge headache like it could've been. I would give 5 stars just for that level of service! A slight negative is the upstairs water pressure is very weak, so if you want a nice relaxing shower, use the downstairs shower. Overall, I would stay here again.

Comfortable, clean house, good location
The exterior of the house is less welcoming than the interior which appears to have undergone some upgrades in the floors, countertops and paint. We only stayed 2 nights during an odd rainy and cold August. There is a master bedroom on the lower level which looked quite nice and open but we opted to stay in one of the upper bedrooms to avoid the stairs. The bed and bedding were quite comfortable and upstairs bath was larger with more counter space than the one downstairs. We appreciated the extra nightlights!
We were surprised to find no dishwasher and no functional drying rack.
Sofa was pretty comfortable. It was a little far from the smallish TV so we ended up moving chairs and coffee table closer.
The location is close to a shopping center that has a good grocery store, drug store and hardware store…a very nice women’s clothing store too.
We were not bothered by traffic noise.

Great location
Some dated features, but the location was wonderful. Enjoyed our island sightseeing.
Very cozy and spacious, enough space for all guests to fit their happy place. The kitchen was perfect to cook in. I’m so grateful you let what others have left spices, coffee and etc to share with the next guest. It helps financially and convenience wise.

Comfy and convenient
Close to everything you need. It was our first trip to Whidbey Island so I would rent this home again.
We had a great stay for Mother’s Day weekend. My mother is at Maple Ridge assisted facility, so it was very convenient for us. You are close to town so you can walk to many restaurants. Traffic noise is busy during the day. There is no AC, but the weather was cool enough. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!
Wonderful accessible property for all family members
Wonderful light from the picture windows on both the main and bottom floor of the property. The wheelchair ramp and hard wood floors made access a breeze for my family to enjoy the space and the veiw of Holmes harbor.
Cool little house, great beds! Good kitchen, comfortable beds and furnishings. It's on a busy road, but forgot about it after the first night. An easy walk to the beach and shopping. Thanks for the fun week!
It was a good spot for a quiet few days on the island! There is no AC so was pretty humid in the house but lots of fans to help. Great little spot. They have done some renovations so it’s not exactly like the pictures and some things still need to be finished. But do recommend for a nice place to stay
We had everything that we needed. However the access code did not work to get in. We were able to access the key, so that was good. There was an old house odor that permeated the home. Overall we had a great trip.
The house was fine. My major complaint was no WiFi on my phone. Did not work. The fireplace was turned off although it was chilly. The shower upstairs very funky. Neighborhood nice. I know the price was right.
The property was better than expected. Really enjoyed the location as it had close proximity to restaurants and stores. The only glitch was we were given a wrong code for the door, but that was quickly solved. Communication with management was great! The price was so good that we took it with kind of low expectations. Thinking that the pictures and description would be better than it was. It was the last house available for the time we wanted to go. But the house was amazing! Better than the house we stayed in last year, which was more expensive. Thanks for a great day. Will definitely come back!
The home was very clean. The only off putting thing is getting dishes out of the cupboard with food still on them. Same with silverware and frying pans. Also we could not find the "book" for home info. How to turn on TV, use the fireplace, work the heating system. The house is on a main thorough fare. Quite a bit of road noise. But the stay was great and Gordon's was awesome!!
After staying here and seeing that the photos on the listing are edited, there’s no beautiful view, it was disappointing and definitely not what was expected. The neighborhood is packed together and you can’t be in a room without having direct view of the neighbor’s rooms. I lost jewelry here and contacted the management just an hour after checkout and was told they would get back to me for a fee, after paying I was never contacted. It’s been weeks and still nothing, best to find somewhere more trustworthy to stay.

kind of an older property, mostly very nice, but some furnishings/amenities are "old" ... kitchen dishes very limited, coffee maker is "broken" - you have to tilt carafe, or coffee spills all over kitchen counter, blinds in living room windows have broken handles
