Wolf Beach Cottage by AvantStay | Harbor Views

Welcome to a newly remodeled (2019) mid-century beach cottage nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac overlooking Holmes Harbor. This slice of heaven boasts Pacific Northwest American Indian artifacts and furs, adding a unique touch to the decor.

Unleash the beauty of the breathtaking water view by opening the wall-to-wall French doors in the living room. Feel the ocean breeze as you relax on the comfortable couch or loveseat, both equipped with recliners. The entire living space, along with the spacious deck, is located upstairs. Meanwhile, the double-deep carport and storage area below provide ample space for your belongings.

Prepare meals in our fully-equipped kitchen with all principal and minor appliances, including a Vitamix, KitchenAid, and Instapot. Or, embrace outdoor dining and relaxation on the deck while cooking up a delightful meal on the BBQ. In the evenings, cozy up by the propane fireplace and indulge in your favorite shows on the 56" Smart TV (cable and high-speed internet included), or enjoy the array of jigsaw puzzles, books, and games suitable for all ages.

The extra-large primary bedroom features a king bed, dressers, a cozy sitting area, and a convenient desk. The second bedroom features a queen bed and dresser. Both bedrooms are equipped with TVs. With one bathroom, this cottage is perfect for up to four adults or a family with up to four children.

Grab the provided beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, and sand toys, and take a leisurely stroll a few minutes away down the gated Saratoga Community beach access road. You'll encounter abundant sand dollars, seashells, and captivating sea life during low tide. Keep an eye out for soaring bald eagles and the distant presence of majestic whales. You can bring your kayaks or smaller boats and launch them from the beach. Remember to explore the other fabulous nearby beaches as well! Our favorite is Double Bluff, with enchanting driftwood castles and endless stretches for leisurely walks.

AvantStay provides an upscale experience with services that elevate your stay and save time so you can enjoy every moment. Guests have access to a 24/7 support team and a tech-enabled concierge to book services, such as fridge stocking, mid-stay cleanings, and private chefs. For anything you need (or never knew you needed), we’re at your service!

Discover the allure of Whidbey Island, where tranquility meets captivating landscapes. Embraced by the Puget Sound, this paradise invites group travelers to unwind on sandy shores and explore nature's wonders. Quaint villages add to the island's charm, each with a unique character. And when it’s time for adventure, outdoor enthusiasts can embark on adventures from Deception Pass to Ebey's Landing.

Magical place
We enjoyed our stay at Wolf Beach cottage so much. The view was gorgeous, and it’s a short walk to the beach. We spent many hours bird watching and enjoying the peace and quiet on the beach. We saw deer, bunnies, bald eagles and harbor seals. If you’ve never vacationed on Whidbey Island, I highly recommend it. Why spend hours waiting in line and sweating at Disney when you can enjoy the peace and quiet of this magical place? We went kayaking, whale watching, hiking, and antiquing. We also spent a lot of time doing nothing and having ice cream every evening at Sprinkles.

Very comfortable and clean stay
The beds were fabulous and a nice large kitchen. Lots of natural light and fun layout. My only warning is the big set of stairs leading up to the front door. There is really no easy way to get your things into the house. Youvl are either climbing the stairs with everything you packed or hauling it up a big hill to the back door with a wagon. Either way its tough. Other than that we absolutely loved it there .

This is a very well-managed property, everything that one would need away from home. We loved that it was close in proximity to Double Bluff Beach, Saratoga Forest and Rocket Tacos : ) The walk down to the community beach was perfect. We will be returning!

Beautiful spot for low key vacation
This house has amazing views of the water and loved spending evenings over sunset walking down to the beach and letting our kids (4 and 2 years old) collect and attempt to skip rocks. As other reviewers mentioned, the house is fairly remote (~10 minute drive to any sort of shop or restaurant). We also visited from Sunday-Thursday and learned that many restaurants are not open those days. But we still enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the area. We did have one minor issue where the coffee maker wasn't working and property management didn't respond to the number on the guest manual (we later learned this number can't accept texts but wasn't stated on the manual after a slow response through VRBO messaging). Luckily our issue was minor but would advise clearer direction to guests on how to communicate if there are issues.

So close to Mission Ridge
Very clean, open floor plan perfect for a mid week trip to practice snowboarding. Use of garage, hot tub, and fireplace made the trip feel like home. We had some issues getting one of the showers to turn on, seems like the handle has been replaced a few times.

Awesome Beach Escape
This home is well equipped, good location and was one of the best VRBO's we've stayed at. They understand what is needed to have an easy stay, it is right down a short path to the most amazing sand private beach - where we never saw other people. Wonderful sand dollars (massive quantities) and shells for exploring. The home could not be better stocked for staying, enjoying and getting some downtime as a family. We will be back!

We had a terrific time and the house was perfect for our short get away visit! Our dogs loved the private beach (we did too) and the location is central to many of the places we wanted to go. It was super clean and appreciated all the attention to details -sheet pans, stainless steel bowls and a large kitchen. Thank you for the lovely time!
