My family and I really enjoyed our vacation on Whidbey Island -- especially our stay at this wonderful little house. We enjoyed waking up to the serene view, paddling on and swimming in the lake, and eating out on the deck. Since we planned on going in to Seattle during out stay, we especially appreciated the proximity to the Mulkilteo ferry.
As other reviewers mentioned, I too felt the kitchen was a little understocked (compared to other vacation rentals I've stayed in) and I was mildly frustrated that I had to purchase so many household essentials (such as paper products and soap for bathrooms and dishwasher). But those are minor items. All in all a good value for a great place to stay.

Three of my girlfriends and myself used this rental as a girls getaway. I booked the rental on my own without the girls seeing what I rented. Needless to say, they were more than impressed. It is a beautiful vaction rental with an amazing view from the livingroom to the patio. The lake is quite warm. We made good use out of the provided paddle boats.
If you book this vacation rental, you will not be dissapointed. The only thing that I would reccomend is that you know before hand that you have to bring your own bricketts for the BBQ, and we had to buy toilet paper and dish soap. Besides that, everything was perfect.
Will be looking to rent again in the future

Owners response: This is such a nice review as was the first. Since we don't always hear from our guests, we are always pleased to know that they have enjoyed themselves.

The house was fantastic! Looked like they had been doing remodeling and everything was turning out wonderfully. The fire pit was so fun with the kids and it already had "seats" of logs and chopped wood for us. The paddle boat was an exciting bonus for us city people, I even went out on a rainy day with my youngest. We had the feeling of seclusion even though we were very close to town and there were neighbors all around. The indoor sports center was probably my biggest surprise! I knew it was there of course but I did not know we as a family would enjoy it as much as we did. There was not a day that we did not spend time in it. I did think the kitchen was a little understocked, some of what I thought to be basics were missing such as no baking dishes, bbq tools, kid friendly glasses etc. Overall Fantastic time and would love to return again next year!

Owners response: I really appreciated the great ideas on the baking dishes, BBQ tools and kid friendly dishes. I am going to add those items right away.
