Secluded Whidbey Island cottage with woodland views, firepit & kitchenette

Little House in the Big Woods

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

This secluded and very cozy Whidbey Island cottage is the perfect romantic getaway for two! Start each day by taking in views of the forest through French doors in your bedroom. The kitchenette is equipped with all the amenities you need for light cooking, including a two-burner cooktop, a toaster oven, a microwave, a toaster, and a coffee maker. Outside, the surrounding trees make you feel far away from it all. And in the evenings, the firepit (be sure to bring some firewood) is the perfect place to sit and watch the stars come out overhead.

The avid golfer will love playing Holmes Harbor Golf Club and Useless Bay Golf & Country Club, both of which are within a short drive. For a beautiful waterfront and hiking trails, head to South Whidbey State Park. Or, grab a glass of wine at Holmes Harbor Cellars and check their website for seasonal events.

Fire and stars

This was a great place to stay for some seclusion. We loved the fire pit and how many stars you can see there. It had everything you could need to be comfortable for a few days. Very comfortable bed and pretty well set up kitchen.

Tiny house in the woods

Loved the privacy from the back door. The house was cozy and easily accessible to all parts of the Island. We didn’t realize how close our neighbors would be. All said it was a beautiful place Thanks

Cottage in the woods

Overall a great property. Comfortable and very quiet. Lots of wildlife to see including bunnies and grouse. Only a couple of minor problems. Main entrance to property is hard to find. Only one small microwave safe bowl, nothing else was safe for use in the microwave. Lastly there was a kurig coffee maker but no mention of bringing your own k- cups.

Birthday/Couples get-away

Absolutely stellar accommodations, fit our needs completely! We spent a good portion of our time exploring the local sights/scene but getting back was a breeze. While weather didn’t really permit the use of the fire pit (due to precipitation/allergies), this was exactly the type of location/facility that my wife and I needed!!!

Great house!

We really enjoyed our stay in this house! Very clean, easy to find and we had everything we needed. A little cold when we got there but it warmed up great after just a few minutes. We’ll definitely stay here again when we’re back on the island!

When you give the key lockbox code, tell them where the lockbox is located: for example on the post across from the door.

Quiet Secluded Staycation

This was a great little weekend getaway to a quiet and cozy guest house. The property was easy to get to and a quick drive to neighboring Coupeville and Freeland.

Quiet and cozy

Was perfect for just what we needed, A little quiet time away from the city near the water. It is on someone’s property but it is secluded and away from the main house where there is plenty of privacy! I would definitely stay here again!

Great little place, with everything we needed. Secluded and very clean. It cost a tad bit more than we would have liked, but other than that it was great.

Getaway on Whidbey Island

Cute place near Freeland. We enjoyed the backyard (although a little buggy!) and the peace and quiet. Nice location for a bike ride, heading to the beach or nearby town. Only disappointment was lack of soap for bathing and a non satisfying response that it is not standard to be provided (Although every other place I have stayed in does, they did provide shampoo and conditioner)
