Great location, needs attention
Nice views but not in good condition. Bathroom toilet in master did not flush at all. Called and they tried to fix but to no avail. Shower curtains were atrocious and would be an easy fix. They are also a tripping hazard. Mattress pad in master was very stained. Fireplace was lovely. Kitchen had lots of pans, dishes, etc. Would not stay again without some changes.

Great location but the house is tired
Beautiful views from the house and close to a number of beaches. That said, the house is very tired and overpriced for what it is. Some beds were comfortable, others were saggy and old. The kitchen was missing some essentials, but after raising them with the property manager, they were delivered (thank you!). For the price, it was very disappointing to not have ample supply of paper towels, toilet paper, dishwashing pods and dishwasher soap. These should be included. There were also no dish clothes in the house.

Never again..Disgusting
When we arrived, there was a very foul smell in one of the bedrooms. We quickly realized that one of the twin beds was soaked in urine (the sheets, all the way through to the mattress was saturated). We immediately called Vacasa, but the call center could not get in touch with the local team for almost 24 hours. The smell from the mattress was so bad that we had to put it in the garage which meant that we did not have use the ping pong table in the garage. We then discovered that a comforter on another bed had feces on the underside. It was clear that the comforter had not been washed. Other issues, multiple pots and pans had grease and dried food in the bottom and had to be washed. We had to wash most of the dishes. There was no laundry soap, very minimal dishwasher soap and minimal amenities. The view was beautiful, but the yard was poorly maintained with thorny bushes overgrown on the benches, and the grass was full of thorns/thistles. I will never rent through Vacasa and would NEVER go back to this house.

Excellent location and view…BUT
The view from the patio and living area were amazing. Great location near Oak Harbor, Deception Pass, Coupeville and Anacortes. The house fit our needs for a large group and was sufficiently supplied. However…most of the beds were very uncomfortable. Especially the king room on the main floor. Vacasa, PLEASE replace this mattress before you rent this house again. One half of the mattress was unusable. Our group occupied every room and had no choice but to use it. Also, what exactly was my cleaning fee used for? Cobwebs in the windows and doorways. Dust bunnies abound. The best feature of this house is the windows facing the Salish Sea. How about washing them between rentals, or ever? I initially gave 4/5 upon our arrival late in the evening. I’ll give a 3/5 at best because the kitchen and bathrooms were clean at least. Could be a wonderful rental with some updates and more thorough cleaning.

Location, location, location
The view from the many windows is amazing, and the house is conveniently located to all that you’re going to want to do in Whidbey. It’s large, and comfortably held 10 people from 3 families. It was clean. Vacasa did their job and we had no complaints on that score. Foosball was a big hit. But it’s not a luxury experience, or one otherwise commensurate with the money charged in the summer. It felt like Grandma’s house, largely abandoned by the heirs, and it wasn’t that nice to begin with. Weird chandeliers, thin walls, dated furniture, mishmash kitchen, no art on the walls, bathrooms that have seen better days. Mostly didn’t matter, except for the thin cheap towels and the mattress downstairs that creaks so loudly we gave over that (large, King, en suite) bedroom to one kid who wouldn’t wake anyone else up. So overall…fine, but not s 5-star experience.

5 day Whidbey stay
Overall very pleased with the house. Loved the ping-pong table and the foosball. 2 minor things: toilet bowl upstairs in the master bedroom doesn’t reliably flush. Needs 2-3 attempts. Second, the pillows for the bedrooms need replacing. They are worn out and not comfortable. Additionally, there was a plastic mattress cover on the downstairs King size bed. It crinkled and made noise. All minor and fixable things. Otherwise, we enjoyed the stay and appreciate such a large multi bedroom house.

A Whidbey Island holiday!
The property is perfectly located to enjoy all that Whidbey Island has to offer - great access to state parks, the quaint towns of Coupeville and Langley and an easy day trip to Port Townsend on the Olympic peninsula! The property could use some upgrades, especially the beds - other than that, it was a good place for our whole family to stay.

We’d be happy to stay here again
This home was great for us. We made use of the sauna, and played plenty of ping pong and fooseball. Beautiful views from the main floor and three of the upstairs bedrooms. Lots of bunnies visit the yard and we saw several bald eagles from the house. Quick drive to Oak Harbor for groceries, restaurants, and a lovely big park.

Wow the view
Ten old friends get away here was great overall. We’ll stocked kitchen plus nice large bedrooms for privacy and a large gathering area near the fireplace gave us a perfect balance of group and individual interaction. One of our group forgot her walking poles and a jacket in th front hall closet and Vacasa did not respond to requests for a way to recover them. In the past vrbo was responsive. Part of the problem is that there is such a distance from the cleaning staff and the guests with Vacasa.

Great house for a quiet weekend vacation
Overall it was a great place for our family and a few friends. The house was clean and spacious, all appliances seemed to be in working order. We had a little trouble getting in with the door code pad, but we called the Vacasa support number and we got the problem resolved quickly. Good house for young families as well, not too many fragile decorations you have to worry about the little ones grabbing or breaking.

Stunning views and big house
This made for an excellent getaway for my father and sister and me. There were many rooms and most of them had unobstructed views of the Puget Sound. The deck as well as the lookout were stunning. My only complaint is that the communication with Vacasa was frustrating. I use Vrbo on a regular basis and have found communication within the app to be very helpful for asking questions or getting clarification. I sent three messages to them and never got a response. I replied to a text message and never got a response. I then had to call them and ask if it was possible to check in early as I would be on the island sooner. The person on the phone didn’t seem to really be sure and then said “if you haven’t heard from them that means the check in time is 4..” This is not good communication. Telling me if you never respond to me that I should assume the answer is no? Similarly, there were no instructions about if we needed to do anything before leaving this morning. I had sent a message over the app to ask if we needed to start the dishwasher or strip the beds etc. I got no response. So you should definitely come here because it is stunning but know that Vacasa will not be particularly helpful if you have a specific question that isn’t in their email.
