The deck is a perfect place to enjoy all day long with the the covered porch and the breathtaking views!

Description:
Welcome to Glendale Beach Cabin on beautiful Whidbey Island, Washington. We invite you to escape to this charming waterfront home ~ perfect for a romantic getaway or family vacation. And while you’ll feel miles away from civilization, the cottage is conveniently located just a 10-minute drive from the charming and historic town of Langley and a 60-minute car/ferry ride from downtown Seattle.

Discover tranquility in the breathtaking scenery. This no-bank beach cabin faces east for panoramic views of the Puget Sound. Watch ferry boats and bustling sea life, or enjoy the serenity of secluded beaches and majestic Mount Baker.

Marvel at local wildlife. A true island retreat, Glendale Beach Cabin offers a prime view of Northwest nature at its most spectacular. Sip your coffee while Bald Eagles and herons perch on the pilings in front of the cabin. See pods of Gray Whales in mid-March, and Orcas swim by during the fall and early winter. Watch as porpoises, sea lions, otters and seals frolic in the waves just off shore. Glendale Creek, an active salmon stream, empties just south of the cabin so you can see returning Coho salmon (or ‘silvers’) head up to spawn September through November.

Choose from tons of fun activities. Take a tranquil walk on miles of pristine sandy beach, or just sit back and enjoy the view from the large deck, covered porch or comfortably appointed cabin. You can dig clams for your dinner or fish right from your front yard. Looking for more adventure? Hike into the wooded canyon along Glendale Creek or try kayaking. Enjoy a leisurely bike ride along the country roads around South Whidbey. Take an afternoon to explore the historic town of Langley just 8 miles north, with its delightful array of restaurants, quaint antique shops, art galleries...even an old-fashioned movie theater!

Enjoy every comfort in your home away from home. Charming and clean, Glendale Beach Cabin is furnished for the ultimate in relaxation. The bedroom boasts a full-size iron bed with premium mattress, quality down comforter and high-thread-count organic cotton bedding from Garnet Hill. After a blissful night’s sleep, you can wake up and enjoy a glorious sunrise over Possession Sound without even lifting your head off the plush down pillows. Ahhh….

Bright and airy, the living and dining rooms offer windows on three sides for exceptional Puget Sound views. In cooler weather, the warm ambiance and comfortable furniture invite you to cozy up next to the gas fireplace and rekindle your spirit. The very comfortable queen sofa-sleeper provides an extra bed, if needed. A water-facing window seat/day bed is lavished with pillows and can be used as a twin bed or wonderful napping spot. We also provide lots of extra cotton blankets, down throws and linens for your use.


The well-organized kitchen is open to the living and dining rooms for easy conversations. You’ll find all the necessities here, and then some - nice dishes, flatware, wine glasses, a quality knife set, cookware, griddle, bakeware, roasting pan and blender, even basic cooking supplies like sugar, flour, oil, some spices, foil, plastic wrap and paper towels. Add to this a full-size refrigerator and range, microwave, programmable Cuisinart coffee maker, Krups bean grinder and fresh gourmet coffee or a selection of fine teas. We also provide an iPod dock, DVD and VCR along with the television in the living room.

Two bathrooms enhance your convenience: one with an antique claw-foot tub perfect for a relaxing candle-lit soak, and the other with a new glass-and-tile-enclosed shower - both stocked with plush, organic-cotton towels.
