About this property

Amazing Sunset/Whale/Water Views/2 Fire Pits/AC/Lots of Games and more!

Welcome to Elger Bay Retreat. This home has all brand new furnishings throughout and all new kitchen items as well. Master bathroom has been newly remodeled. Spacious layout with 2 bedrooms upstairs and 1 bedroom downstairs. Beautiful views from all of the living spaces and the large front deck. Enjoy sitting by the wood burning fire pit and roasting marshmallows or just relaxing.

The views are across Elger Bay, over to Whidbey Island with the Olympic Mountains in the background. Sunsets are spectacular. Enjoy sitting on the deck and experiencing bald eagles flying right in front of you. Two pairs of binoculars are provided. During whale season, the grays will come in and feed by scooping up food from the sandy bottom.

The beach access is a short walk with plenty to explore. The walk to the state park is under 30 minutes along the shore. There is a second state park (Cama Beach State Park) as well. That might be better accessed with a short car ride, but could also be an extra long walk. Cama also offers boat rentals, kid activities and more.

Elger Bay Grocery and Gas, a convenience store that has all of your essentials is only 2 miles away. QFC ins located in Stanwood, 13 miles.

Matzke Fine Art Gallery and Sculpture Park- less than a mile away.

Great stay with great view

We really enjoyed this property. Beautiful views off the deck with comfy chairs to lounge in. The inside is very well kept. Everything is nice and clean. The kitchen is well supplied with cooking equipment so it’s very easy to prepare your own meals. We would definitely consider staying here again!!

Perfect getaway spot

Lovely home in fantastic condition throughout! Well appointed in every way - kitchen, baths, living rooms, outdoor. A nice quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city, with plenty of room to spread out. We enjoyed walking down the hill to the small beach area we had access to and spent a good deal of time on the deck soaking in the view. Lots of great information in the home for exploring Camano - looking forward to a return trip already!

Camano Island

This was a beautiful, clean, comfortable property that we hated to leave. If I were ever in this area again, I would be happy to rent it again. The photos are accurate as shown. Our favorite place was the deck off the main living area. We spent a lot of time there, enjoying sunsets and morning coffee. We loved the comfortable outdoor furniture and the outdoor gas fireplace. There was only three of us, but this would be very comfortable for a much larger party. The only thing I can think of that was missing was the corkscrew! Which we were able to buy at the camp store just down the road. There were plenty of small stores, coffee shops and restaurants a short drive away. I don’t recommend walking on the beach directly in front of the house. I would recommend going to the state parks that are very close by. The views from the deck were fabulous so we were happy to spend a lot of our time there.

Beautiful View of the Ocean

We had a great stay and loved the view. We enjoyed having our coffee and staring out at the ocean. The Nespresso machine was a great add on and lots of tea options to choose from. A spacious house for us to enjoy. We enjoyed the fire table outside and the smores that were provided. The only downfall was there is no laundry (with kids we always seem to need it) which I didn't read before that it wasn't provided, my mistake. I assumed there was laundry just because everywhere we have stayed provided it, but a lesson learned and we made do. We had a great stay all in all.

Difficulty with VRBO. Great host.

VRBO made for a very difficult check in because I don't have google chrome. I can search, book, pay for a rental but VRBO can not contact me with the Host. The host was very very helpful when we finally connected. Lovely home. Everything we needed.

Lovely home, great view

This home was great for our family’s weekend to Camano. Great view of the bay, the home was very comfortable and nicely decorated, the kitchen was impressively well stocked with everything you might need, linens were very nice. Our teen loved having the downstairs living space to herself. Easy to get to, enjoyed our walk on the beach. Had a very relaxing stay.
