We are kid and pet friendly but we are not childproof nor pet proof. Children and pets must be supervised at all times. Hot tub is not fenced. We are not responsible for accidents on the property, use at your own risk.
The adjoining lot (for your use) has an access-way to the beach that is public. Occasionally, rarely, it is used by the public.
Tippingrock is located across Skagit Bay from the Whidby Island Naval Air Station. The navy/air force practice formations during the week. Sometimes they are over La Conner, other times they are further south or north and we don't hear them. They do not fly Friday night, Saturday or Sunday. Some folks enjoy the formations, other don't like the noise. We want you to be informed as we never know when, or if, they will be flying (except NOT on weekends.) It is usually a dull roar in the distance but since the Iran war, it has become more noticeable.
You will receive directions and key information from VRBO's "Welcome Guide" 3 days before check in. Please review directions we send as GPS can get you lost.

One of loveliest stays I've had. The space was beautiful and impeccably clean. Everything was comfortable and cozy. Our host was accommodating and quick to respond. What a treat.
Awesome property for our trip! Offered us a central location for our exploring and was a great place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Great owner to work with as well. Thank you!
Super comfortable and well equipped house with spectacular views and great location! We have family in La Connor and will definitely stay in this house again! We have found our spot!
This house is the perfect spot for reconnecting with friends and family. Great spaces for visiting. Perfect views. Plenty of room. The host was great and very responsive.One small thing: many plugs need replaced. They are so loose that plugs fall out. Not a big deal, just a detail.
This is a peaceful and beautiful location, with very comfortable and thoughtful amenities and conscientious hosts! Very convenient in proximity to easily visit the San Juan Islands and the Skagit Valley. We look forward to returning in the future.

This is a very nice property in a most beautiful place. At first I was confused because VRBO listed this as being on Whidbey Island, which it is not. However I think we enjoted it much more. The quietness of the area and ease of getting to the island cant be beat. We are hoping to go back next year and stay longer. We were very happy with the communication we had with the owner and he answered all our questions very quickly. Thanks for a great sray.
Loved this stay. Better than advertised. We so enjoyed the fireplace, watching the tides, sunsets in the hot tub, and the wildlife. There’s a rabbit or two, a racoon and so many birds…even an eagle. Nearby La Conner has great restaurants. Hope to return!
Quiet, scenic and serene. Hot tub is very nice, as are the many birds you will see and hear in the vicinity. Just don't try to walk out past the rocky beach at low tide: that is heavy mud, not sand!
This is a great spot. Wonderful location overlooking the water and with easy beach access. The kitchen was well-stocked. And its a quick drive to downtown Laconner which is adorable.
Wonderful, cozy home right on the beach. Totally as advertised, no surprises. Very secluded and private. Has a warm, cozy feel and is well-stocked. Looking forward to coming back soon!
We had a blast. The shore was close enough that I could stay on the patio and watch the kids play in the sand and water. Beds were super comfortable! It was so quiet and calm and perfect for our family.
