Lake Alice: soggiorni in cottage

Loved the location! Stunning views… the home was very cozy and warm!

We had a herd of elk welcoming us to the neighborhood, it was amazing. The home was beautiful and peaceful. Couldn’t ask for better weather for our stay, thanks for taking care of the sunshine Sarah! We had a beautiful time.

As an Airbnb host myself, I’ve developed a pretty critical eye when it comes to the places I stay. I notice the cleanliness, the attention to details and the decor. The little things the host does to make a guest feel noticed and valued and whether or not they can strike the balance between friendly and available but not intrusive. Susan and her BEAUTIFULLY decorated place checked all the boxes. She very obviously puts her heart into hosting and goes above and beyond in her role. Personalized video instructions, warm cookies and a chalk welcome note… luxurious bedding and decor and an impeccably manicured yard were some of my favorite touches. Thanks, Susan, for a truly special weekend away.

Another amazing visit with my kids and our dog. Susan and Chris are incredibly helpful. They came down within a couple of hours to spray and put out wasp traps, after some wasps started hanging out near the hot tub. It took care of the problem right away so we could enjoy a good soak while looking out at the sound. It's clear that Susan and Chris really want everyone to enjoy their stay as much as possible. We'll be back next spring break!!!

This location was above expectation. It was quiet and beautiful. There were great amenities with the club house as well. My kids enjoyed the pool. My husband and I enjoyed the games and hot tub. It was easy to walk everywhere. The accessible beaches and walking trails made this place one of a kind.

Stayed at this house with a few friends for the weekend and had such a lovely time. Serene views of the passage from a heated deck and hot tub, and spacious living quarters for everyone to have separate sleeping quarters.

This was the perfect spot for a weekend getaway. The space was very cozy and relaxing. Loved waking up to lots of sunshine from the skylight and hearing all of the birds chirping while enjoying a cup of tea and reading on the balcony. We enjoyed morning walks around the quiet neighborhood and loved the short walk down to the beach to catch the sunset. The kitchen was great for cooking some delicious meals together and loved using the bonfire and the small yard for some yard games. Lots of great short day trip options, we loved our visit to Finn River Cidery and planned our route to the Airbnb to go through Bainbridge for delicious fish & chips and baked goods. Vicki was very responsive and provided great recs!

This is (at least) our SIXTH stay at Oberon and it never disappoints. So many wonderful improvements over the years and we always depart already pining for our next visit.

What a lovely place within walking distance of fun places in town. Really liked the back porch and the coffee bar. Michelle was a wonderful host . I would recommend this location to anyone who wants to explore this fun town. We very much enjoyed our time and only 45 min from Crystal Mtn ski resort.

Great spot, such a beautiful and cozy little house with truly unbelievable views. Walkable to a cluster of small shops and restaurants and down to two different beaches. And Mt Rainier right out the window! Would definitely stay with Thomas again!

Peaceful and private in a quiet neighborhood. Great place for staying with a dog, host was considerate with pet blankets and accessories.

We had a wonderful get away Eagle Point Cottage. The view was incredible. They really thought of everything to make a fun, comfortable, relaxing, and safe getaway. We had an amazing time kayaking and got to see lots of wildlife. They even reached out to let us know about an opportunity for a possible Orca sighting (we didn’t see one but did enjoy all the seals and sea lions while kayaking). They also had lots of indoor activities for rainy days. Check out was easy. I would definitely recommend this place and plan to return again in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay! Beautiful views and super cozy cottage.

Absolutely loved it, the loft was primo for our seven year old daughter!

After 15 years of visiting the same place on Whidbey Island, we found a new spot! This is a magical little place just a few minutes north of Langley, where we saw an abundance of wildlife, had relaxing mornings and restful sleep! Ashlyn's place was perfect for our family of three. The cute little cottage was full of books and wonderful art. Ashlyn was so accommodating about our arrival and provided us with wonderful recommendations. We will definitely be back! If you do book, make sure you ask about the breakfast - ours was spectacular!!

Perfect, peaceful, charming cabin on the water. The moment you walk in you can see straight through to the water. Comfy deck seating for watching the sunrise and sunset. Walk right on to the soft sand filled with seashells. We will definitely visit again!

Wonderful place. Peaceful and quiet retreat. Great bird watching and morning sunrise from the deck. Comfortable bed. Perfect for a couple. We stayed in the winter over New Years and the temperature was nice and warm inside the home and easily adjustable. There were great restaurants, bars and other stores in the town nearby and whale watching spots within a 10 minute drive. Great window exposure of the beautiful scenery. I would certainly go back. Stayed 2 days/nights and wish I stayed longer. Barron was friendly during the entire process.

The house was magical. How could you not love the beautiful view and the incredible sunrise in the morning? The home itself was clean and well kept. The light switches were fun to figure out which was for what but otherwise our stay was amazing and so peaceful. The way to the beach is easy to find and a little terrifying. I wouldn’t recommend taking your children down or having a few drinks before going down the ladder/stairs. Overall, I highly recommend staying here while visiting the island. It’s smack dab in the middle and easy to get around and incredibly peaceful.

Gisele’s cabin was a great home base while visiting family for the holidays. The cabin is located centrally on the island close to the ferry and downtown Winslow, while the cabin itself was always a cozy place to read and stay warm by the fire. Excited for my next visit!

This is a lovely, quiet spot with a very comfortable bed! The surroundings are nice and wooded with the creek running near the cabin. There are several areas to walk down to the water. We really enjoyed our stay here. It is a short drive into town, but there are great restaurants and coffee shops.

We adored our time at Linda's place - the coziest and most charming little coastal cottage. We stayed during a particularly stressful time for us, but we felt so nourished by the home and so at peace looking out the windows at the ever changing views of Sinclair Inlet and its passing ferries, submarines, aircraft carriers, seals, birds, and even a little pod of orcas! We intended to do lots of exploring but found ourselves more inclined to just stay home to enjoy the movies, games, and puzzles; cold dips in the Sound at high tide; and the gorgeous views of the mountains, incoming weather, and city lights sparkling on the water. The home was well stocked with everything we could possibly need, from the kitchen, bath, and laundry, to the extra fuzzy blankets and binoculars. Linda had even prepared for the occasional winter-weather power outages, with plenty of flashlights and gas hurricane lamps. Linda is a thoughtful and communicative host, and her cottage is simply a joy!

We had a peaceful and relaxing stay at Marrowstone Cottage. It’s a bright and attractive space that Kristy & Chris set up thoughtfully for comfort and convenience. They were nearby and friendly in case of problems (there weren’t any) but the cottage is also situated for privacy from the main house. We found the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom (we only used the downstairs bed) well-appointed with linens, dishes, pots & pans, etc. We highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a quiet, cozy retreat. -Heather & Ken

We absolutely loved our stay here! The cottage was comfortable & clean and the property was magical. The animals are so cute & the gardens were beautiful. What a peaceful & serene place to stay. Can’t say enough nice things about this place and can’t wait to stay here again!

Perfect place to relax and feel at home. Very cozy and comfortable. Beds & pillows were great! The view of the water was wonderful.
