Featuring all new beds, soft luxury linens, black out blinds in the bedrooms, and a complete cook's kitchen for your holiday use. The kitchen is well-stocked with quality stainless cookware, griddle, coffee maker and grinder, electric tea kettle, toaster oven, blender, crockpot, and sharp knives. The pantry is stocked with dried herbs, salt and pepper. Grill out on the deck with the Weber gas grill as you watch for seals, enjoy s'mores around the campfire outside, or snuggle up with a good book around the wood-burning stove inside. Our bathrooms have just been beautifully refreshed. The upstairs bath now features new double sinks and quartz countertops with beautiful new flooring for both baths. In keeping with the intentional simplicity of the home we do not have any televisions, but we do have WiFi and cell phone reception. We have many games, books and puzzles for your enjoyment. Enjoy Holmes Harbor with easy steps to the pebble strewn tidal beach. Follow a short garden path, nine steps down, and there you are! Our privately-owned beach is easy enough for our great-grandma to access. Carrying chairs, paddle boards or sand toys down is a breeze. Our beach is an excellent place to launch your kayak or paddle board; bring your own, or to rent from the local rental company. Come and unwind with an easy island getaway in the perfect location. Enjoy strolls on the beach, birdwatching and campfires in our quiet and peaceful neighborhood, all within a 3 minute drive or even a walk to dining, antique shops, coffee, ice cream and the grocery store. We are centrally located in South Whidbey within a short drive to Langley, Greenbank Farm and Coupeville. If the season is right you are welcome to pick apples, blackberries, rhubarb or herbs from the herb bed for your own savory delights. As stewards of our beautiful beach, we don't use any pesticides. Our Family Property and Guest Interaction: A Home On The Harbor is a private vacation home that is rented out by owners (not a management company or an agent).

We will not disturb you, but we are always happy to meet new friends should you wish to say hello. You will be asked to let yourself in, to follow the house guidelines, and to follow some simple house closing steps. The home has a guestbook available with all the home details. We are also available via text, email and phone for all your questions and are happy to help you with any questions you have about the area or the home. A Home On The Harbor is our family property. Tell us a bit about your group and your stay in your booking request. Well-behaved pets are welcome on approval, $75 fee per pet. Limit 2. We host up to 4 adults and 4 children at a time.
