About this property
Whidbey Island Beach Cottage, ON THE BEACH at Admiralty Inlet! Sunset Views!
The Whidbey Island Beach Cottage, formerly known as the Salmon Run Beach Getaway is situated on the beach in Admirals Cove on Admiralty Bay. Enjoy 60 feet of no-bank waterfront near Coupeville, on the sunny west side of beautiful Whidbey Island.
The Coupeville area offers many quaint shops and restaurants within a short drive, or walk/drive onto the nearby ferry and take a day trip to Port Townsend. Many activities are at hand – hiking, biking, golf, fishing, bird watching, beach walks, and diving. The cottage is approximately 940 SF and is decorated in a beach theme. Your lodging sleeps a maximum of 4 persons (KIDS 12+ ONLY): the master bedroom has a Queen bed with a down/feather comforter, loft has a full size sleeper sofa and the small 2nd bedroom has a twin bed. There is one full bathroom with shower/bathtub. The main source of heat is the propane fireplace. Due to the steep and narrow stairs up to the loft and the fireplace that is not child proof, we cannot accept reservations for children under the age of 12.
Please no pets - please respect our policy. NO SMOKING OR VAPING IS ALLOWED INDOORS. Sorry, due to driftwood, absolutely no beach fires allowed. Additional fees will automatically be charged for cleaning if you bring a pet or smoke or vape inside the property.
Maximum of 4 Guests. Additional Guests causes increased use of the home and the septic system. You will be subject to additional fees for cleaning if the number of Guests staying at the house is greater than the number of Guests disclosed when you make the reservation.
Once your reservation is accepted, a copy of the Rental Agreement will be provided. Once booked, Guests automatically agree to abide by the rules and conditions set forth within the Rental Agreement.
PLEASE NOTE: A minimum of a 1 day block is needed between each reservation. VRBO does not automatically block the dates so ALL reservations will need to be reviewed to ensure there is a minimum of 24 hours in between each reservation.
Guests are given unique access codes prior to check-in and there are outdoor security cameras for safety.
5 night minimum in the summer months: June-October and Christmas/New Years. 3 night minimum for Thanksgiving and all holiday weekends. All holidays and summer months are charged at a higher rate.
You may hear and see Navy fighter jets overhead during your stay. Ault Field is located north of Coupeville in Oak Harbor and the Naval Outlying Field is located here in Coupeville. The Navy performs and practices “Touch and Go” at the Naval Outlying Field (NOLF) and schedules are only posted about 1 week in advance. Typically, flying does not occur on weekends. If jet noise is an issue for you, please consider that this house and location may not be suitable for you.

About the host
Hosted by Jane
This is our second home that is very special and dear to us and we are happy to share it with you. I was born and raised in Colorado and have lived in the Seattle area for almost 20 years with my husband and 2 children.
Why they chose this property
We love living in the Pacific Northwest! It has so much to offer with so many places to explore. Our home is beachfront, just about 60 feet from the back of the house to the water's edge. It's a popular spot for fishing for salmon when they come in to spawn. Coupeville holds a very special place in my heart as there is so much to see and do! Our favorite hike is The Bluff at Ebey's Landing on a bright sunny day where you have incredible endless views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains. It's about a 4-4.5 mile loop. Work your way down to the beach and listen to the calming waves. Explore neighboring Fort Casey and the Admiralty Lighthouse! The Keystone Ferry is 2 miles away so bring your bike or your walking shoes, catch the ferry to Port Townsend and spend the day exploring in-town. Check out Fort Worden where the movie "An Officer and a Gentleman" was filmed in the early 1980's. End your day at our cottage watching the sunsets, seals, porpoises and fish jump. Or drive 10-15 minutes into downtown Coupeville for dinner and enjoy eating the fresh and famous Penn Cove mussels.
What makes this property unique
This is a waterfront beach cottage, just steps out to Admiralty Bay. Gaze at the views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains with a glass of wine and let your worries melt away as you hear the waves gently crashing onto the beach. It is the perfect location for a bike ride to the Port Townsend ferry, Fort Casey, the Admiralty Lighthouse or even to the town of Coupeville. You will have everything you need at your fingertips. Just bring a change of clothes, your bike, ingredients for your meals (if you wish to cook) and you and your loved ones. You won't want to leave!
