About this house rental

Situated in Coupeville, this charming house for $109 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. Welcome to Island Hideaway–a slice of Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve and local history! Unwind in this peaceful 2 bed/1.5 bath home nestled in ~5 acres of forest. Freshly decorated, with walls of windows bringing the outside in, you will love this centrally located hideaway to explore the island. While the property is secluded and peaceful, it’s centrally located, just 5 minutes drive to the historic waterfront shops and restaurants and 15 minutes to city conveniences. Fun fact–this property was part of the original holding of one of the first settlers of Coupeville and had been in the previous owner’s family for 5 generations. We hope to honor that history by sharing the acres of trees along with local touches with our guests. We are constantly curating and updating the home as we explore more ourselves. The Island Hideaway is a 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath, one level rambler, approximately 1500 sqft. Freshly decorated, look for local touches and island adventures ideas in the home! All rooms are on one level with a step-free path to entry. Each bedroom has a queen bed. The living room has a 3rd queen bed (pull out sofa bed). Please refer to the listing photo for a floor plan. • Kitchen is fully-stocked with appliances, cookware, silverware, basic condiments and coffee/tea • Dining table is set for 4 but can seat up to 6 with a table extension • Workspace/desk WFH area • High-quality beddings & linens • Onsite washer and dryer with detergent supplied for your laundry needs • Access to popular streaming TV services • Firewood provided for the wood burning stove • Outdoor dining set available for your use (seasonal). Seating for 4 but extra chairs are available, just ask! Slow down, breathe-in the outside, and explore all that the property has to offer. Walk the Cedar Path, check out the groves of cedars, hemlocks and firs, look for blooming rhododendrons all over the property in the Spring, pick fresh raspberries from the garden in the Summer for breakfast, check trees for apples and pears in the Fall. If you happen to be staying when snow falls, the property turns into a winter wonderland! Enjoy a cup of coffee or tea while you gaze at the rhodies. Cozy up by the wood burning stove, enjoy reading about the history of the area from the local books provided in the house, snuggle up for a movie night and games in the spacious living room! **About the Reservation** • In booking our home, you consent to completing a third-party identity verification. The screening will have to be completed within 3 days from booking or at least 24 hours before check-in, whichever is earlier, to fully confirm your reservation. You are welcome to reach out to us for complete terms regarding guest screening. • We uphold our cancellation policy as we only have each night available to one group of guests. We highly recommend purchasing travel insurance to protect your booking. One date change if your check-in date is more than 2 weeks away. No date changes otherwise. • Any stay longer than 30 days requires additional tenant screening, lease signing and security deposit to fully confirm your reservation. **Additional Info About the Home** • NAS is stationed on Whidbey Island, and this home is close to the OLF (Outlying Landing Field). You will hear jets flying by so please be aware there will be noise. The jets are F-18s, as featured in Top Gun: Maverick! NAS Whidbey was one of the locations for the flight scenes, look for the Cascade Mountains in the movie! • Cell service is spotty in the area but enabling Wifi calling & texting will help! Wifi is the fastest available on the island. Great for most entertainment and light working needs but if you have specific high speed requirements for work, please consider a hotspot or similar alternatives • This property has two separate houses (Rhododendron Loft and Island Hideaway) on the property and this listing is for Island Hideaway. Two rentals each has its own private entrance, are far enough to ensure privacy & don't share amenities in any way.

We came to visit some friends who are moving out of state soon and found this little home. It is a cute and charming older home and decorated very modernly with so many cute touches. Love that the owner had suggestions and fun little things to do like painting rocks and picking apples. My kids loved that! Also communication was extremely good, before I even had questions I was getting emails answering everything I could think of. Would definitely stay here again!

Nice property and clean, with large backyard. Our only complaint was the smaller bedroom’s mattress was one of the worst we’ve slept in. But overall nice and quiet place near Coupeville.

The beds we’re very comfy and I felt right at home in this charming house. It was like being at my grandmothers house and had all the amenities I needed and more. New appliances and tv and beds were wonderful. And great location. Would stay here again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and plan to come back again when we can stay longer. The house was great, with a super comfy bed in the master bedroom. It was very clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay, with lots of extras. The setting was so peaceful. I was able to relax outside with my morning coffee. And it was so convenient to the town of Coupeville, where we had a yummy dinner. This was our first time renting via VRBO, and the host made it super easy with clear check in/ check out instructions and house guidelines. It was a really pleasant experience for us.

We really liked visiting Whidbey Island but discovered that the naval air plane noise was much more bothersome than we had anticipated. The navy practices flight maneuvers most days of the week near Coupeville, in the afternoon (from 1.5 to 3 hrs) and again at night (from 9pm to midnight). The property manager did mention this in the description, but we thought it would be just a few passes overhead periodically. We were traveling with a senior dog who is very noise sensitive (frightened of fireworks and thunderstorms) and this was much much worse than either of those things. It was really painful watching her suffer during the airplane noise. If you are traveling with animals or children on the autism spectrum this will not be the place for you. Other than that, property was as described.
