House, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 6)

WHALES CAN BE VIEWED JUST 7 METERS IN FRONT OF OUR HOUSE!!! WHALE SEASON IS MARCH - JUNE!!

Uniquely situated on 400 feet of no-bank sandy beach along Saratoga Passage on the southwest end of Camano Island, our home offers expansive views of both Mt. Rainier and the Olympic Mountains. Our historic home was built in 1957 on 3.5 mostly natural acres right on the sandy beach. Quiet and privacy is ensured by wetlands filled with driftwood on one side, and a picturesque cove community on the other side, about 3000 feet down the beach.

Pacific Northwest nature is at its best here with eagles, herons, seals, sea otters, foxes, deer and all the small forest creatures. Both Orcas and Gray whales feed on plankton and pass as close as a tweny feet from our bulk-head between March and June (peak viewing is April/May). Enjoy the views from our covered patio with fireplace -- sparkling water during the day, spectacular island sunsets, and starry nights. Outdoor activities include: hiking, bicycling, fishing, clamming, crabbing, beach-walking, kayaking, whale-watching and boating.

Our guests enjoy water views from ALL rooms since the home is built on a point and with unusual angles. The living room has a wood stove (wood provided) for cozy relaxation, and flat screen TV (good reception for 18 channels) with DVD. There is also a stereo system with many FM channels and tape deck. The dining room looks west towards Whidbey Island and sunsets. Our country kitchen is fully equipped (all dishes, utensils, pots and pans, baking dishes, etc.). Both bedrooms have water views and ample closet space. The master has a small bath with shower (queen bed). The second bedroom has a King and double bunk bed (suitable for kids, bring sleeping bags). The hall bath has a tub. Our flat-roofed, pumice brick home was designed and built with 1950's era charm -- warm wood paneling inside, built in cabinets and dining room buffet, and red brick fireplaces. There is a full laundry room with washer/dryer.

Our home is especially enjoyable to those who love nature. The previous owners enjoyed it for 70 years, after buying the land from a small logging operation in 1929. Prior to that, the area was homesteaded in the late 19th century and probably was used occasionally as a Native American summer camp. We are now opening our home of 8 years to share with like-minded nature-lovers.

Camano Island is easily reached by driving over a bridge which means no ferry lines! Our home is reached in about 30 minutes from the I-5 Stanwood exit.

Private beach!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this beachfront home. It is very private and clean. I even had to chance to observe a family of dear, seals and whales! All in all, this beachfront house allowed me to experience a perfect vacation.

Owner's Response: Stephanie and Richard,
Thanks for your nice comments online and via email. What fun to see some whales and seals. There's an otter family that occasionally slithers over the bulkhead for a flounder picnic on our lawn, too. So glad you both enjoyed yourselves! Come back again.

Loved it!

5 of 5
Submitted: August 18, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
Wonderful spot!! Loved sitting by the bulkhead and watching boats, seals, egrets, swallows, .... Enjoyed a bald eagle atop a nearby tree one morning. Saw lots of crabs, few starfish, etc. at low tide; son loved walking the large driftwood field next to house. Pictures present accurate portrayal of house, older, but in good shape and complete with all needed. We ate all meals on the back patio table, never even turned on the TV or stereo, as we were there during a run of magnificent weather! There is no internet access, so leave your laptop at home, but our iPhones worked, so we could cheat here and there to look at emails, web, as needed.

Owner's Response: We are so pleased that you and your family enjoyed our family beach house this last week. It sounds like you completely relaxed (no laptop!) and enjoyed the abundant nature all around. There are also otters that come up from the sea, slide over the bulkhead, and go up to take a bath in our pond in the back. Whales pass in April-June. Thanks for your nice comments -- we love the place, too, and are so glad you had a good time.

Best Location You Could Hope For!

5 of 5
Submitted: August 12, 2011 Stayed: August 2011
We had a wonderful time there, couldn't ask for a better location surrounded by beach. Our kids had a blast building forts with all the driftwood and playing on the big grass lawn. Evenings on the patio with the big brick fireplace were enjoyable and the house was stocked with everything we needed. We saw lots of birds, seals/otters and even crabs...if you've got kids they will have a great time!

Owner's Response: We are very glad you enjoyed our family beach house and all the nature that surrounds it. You are welcome anytime.
