Lovely home overlooking Puget Sound with wood stove, decks & great yard

Cedar House on Holmes Harbor

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Experience the magic of Whidbey Island at this tranquil family house tucked among the firs and cedars of Greenbank. You'll have multiple levels of deck space, a serene and spacious yard, a beautiful view of Holmes Harbor framed by the surrounding trees, and public beach access just 400 meters down North Bluff road. Greenbank Farm has a great cafe, a cheese shop, and beautiful walking trails.

This three-story home sits near the eastern shore of Whidbey Island, on a grassy piece of property lined with mature evergreens. You'll be just south of Greenbank Farm, an island favorite for its fantastic pies, cafe, and walking paths. There is also a public beach just down the road, making it easy to enjoy the water.

The setting is pure Northwest, best enjoyed on the balcony while sipping coffee and watching the sunrise over the sound. Spend your afternoons grilling on the deck, and your evenings dining alfresco and telling stories in the lounge chairs in the yard.

The interior is full of atmosphere, with natural wood adorning the walls and ceilings, and generous windows showcasing the trees and water. You'll find every comfort here: stainless steel appliances in the kitchen, space to dine at the peninsula bar counter and in the window-lined breakfast nook, and a wood stove to curl up next to for evening board games and movies in the living room. The bedrooms are also wonderfully separated for privacy, with two water-view rooms on the top floor, another bedroom on the main floor, and a kids' retreat with its own den and walkout patio downstairs.

THINGS TO KNOW
No private beach access.
The wood stove is the primary source of heat on the main floor.

Jorge & Deb R., Seattle area, Washington, USA

Disliked: Cleanliness
Very disappointing
Upon entering the house, there was not the usual "WOW" from the many VRBO homes I have rented. PROS: Nice ambience outside; views of the Sound, beautiful decks surrounded by trees, gas grill, fire pit; Wood burning stove; 2 water view bedrooms;quiet location CONS: 59 degrees throughout house upon arrival; Cobwebs in windows, dirt under beds & bathroom sink;dusty shelves & dirty windows; other guests' clothing & dirty towel left in laundry room, open wall hole in bedroom with spider webs/debris on floor, dining table sticky, wood storage area by fireplace full of wood debris with unlockable outside opening allowing access to the living room; dirty heater vents & bathroom door. Requested assistance with kitchen lights, non-working shower, locating heat controls for living/dining room heat (there were none); non-working TV, cleaning cobwebs & insufficient lighting in living/dining rooms.lamps above fireplace covered in paper? Response time was quick but nothing was resolved. No offer to send maintenance/cleaning crew other than to bring by some extra lamps; we were then told a plumber was to repair shower but not until 9 days later. Lower bathroom had toilet/shower, no sink to wash hands. The host kept apologizing.They stated appreciation for bringing this to their attention.They were sorry to hear of the underlying issues we were experiencing. They asked if we wanted staff to intervene-I said Yes, but no one came.This was the most disappointing VRBO experience ever.
