Great home in a beautiful spot!

This was a great spot for a group of four friends to take a getaway. The kitchen was well stocked and we had everything we needed. Very convenient location for some good outdoor activities like visiting the nearby state park. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Great house by marina and park!

We stayed at this beautiful custom designed home for our 22nd anniversary and enjoyed every minute there! It is a three minute walk to a beautiful marina and bay and eight minute walk to deception pass park with beautiful views of the water! John, the property owner, was very friendly and helpful. He was flexible with the check in and check out times which was wonderful for us. It is an open concept home with a beautifully decorated Living room, dining room, kitchen and upstairs loft bedroom. There is also a deck outside where you can sit and have breakfast or a glass of wine and see the marina views! Rosario Beach is a quick 10 minute drive and there is a beautiful trail that takes you along the waterfront. Coupville is about 30 minutes and Langley is about an hour drive. We enjoyed a nice anniversary dinner in Coupville, which is a beautiful little town on the water! Highly recommend this place for a peaceful, relaxing getaway!

Just what was advertised and just what we needed

First, John was a great host; responsive, professional and friendly! We needed a quiet spot to spread out a bit and catch up with old friends. The properties deck, comfy couches and 2 bedrooms/bathrooms was perfect.

Perfect chalet on the edge of Deception Pass State Park

We came for a Change of Command at NAS Whidbey Island and the location was perfectly located between the base and our other events. Being near Deception Pass, we took advantage of going into the park, early morning you could see deer. Both in the park and in the yard. The photos accurately describe the chalet, it is beautiful and rustic. We didn’t cook much but the kitchen was well equipped if you so desired to do so. John is wonderful to work with, responding quickly when needed. We would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Wonderful!

We really enjoyed our time here! The view is great, and we slept great! The whole house has a relaxed cozy vibe to it with that cabiny feel. Loved having acess to a fully stocked pantry - we made use of it and had an amazing breakfast. Also, the host John was great to work with. 10/10 would stay again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was a convenient, comfortable location in a beautiful setting. We spent a little time on the deck in the sun, walked to the nearby trails and took in the view through the floor to ceiling windows. Overall, a great place to stay

Awesome Getaway

Comfortable, clean, and exactly as pictured. Host very responsive (lives next door)) and went above-and-beyond to meet our needs. Very secure environment; left bikes unlocked without incident. Enjoyed the multitude of dear that came through the yard. Also liked that trails for hiking/biking were accessible just up the hill from the home. Super close to the state park including cranberry lake with hiking, swimming, kayak rental, driftwood galore, and stunning sunsets. Host also provided eggs, bacon, juice, bagels, and other food items…all much appreciated. Only stayed for 2 nights and wish we had stayed longer. Awesome little getaway.

About the host

Hosted by John Fuik

Host profile image
My wife Marjorie and I are both retired. Marjorie as a legal secretary/paralegal, and myself, I spent 8 years on active duty, another 19 at Bayliner Yachts, and another 10 as a maintenance director for 4 retirement communities. We've been pretty active most of our lives raising 2 boys. Living in this area, that involved a lot of boating activities, camping, and hiking. After the boys left, we decided to build a house in Cornet Bay, Whidbey Is. Wa. on a piece of property we acquired. We hit the road in a 36ft Country Coach for a year, and got as far as Virginia Beach, before covid sent us home. Looking for more road adventures.

Why they chose this property

My wife and I built this house, with a little help from our 2 sons. We think the location is heaven, and have pinched ourselves for 15 years. This offers us an opportunity to share this wonderful place with other people, while giving us some financial reward for the upkeep of the home. We love our motorhome, and look forward to staying there, while the home is rented.

What makes this property unique

The number of activities so close at hand are amazing. Bird watching is done from our deck. 5 types of raptors frequent our skies, and marine shorebirds and ducks call Cornet Bay home. There's a marina at the bottom of the hill. The trail for the Hoypus Point old growth forest, is accessed at the top of our street. No park fees, because you're technically in the park. Jet boat tours under Deception Pass bridge depart at the state park dock at the bottom of hill. Long for the ocean waves crashing on the beach? West beach in Deception Pass state park is 2 miles west, in the other half of the park, which also boasts a freshwater lake adjacent to the beach for swimming and fishing. Pass lake is another fly only lake nearby, as is Deception pass golf center, a par 3 course only 2 miles away. Anacortes is a quaint old railroad/logging town, turned multi marina tourist attraction, with downtown shops, restaurants, and gift shops abound.
