It really doesn't get any better than this!
For his 50th birthday get-away, all hubby asked for was a fire pit, water view, and a place with peace and quiet so he could unwind from life's routine for a few days. My dream get-away always includes a hot tub, too.... Well, the bar has been raised really, really high now! Massive, well-appointed, clean-as-a-whistle kitchen, jetted tub, multiple fireplaces, fun games and videos to entertain the kiddos, a really enjoyable adventure down to the water; a true slice of Heaven on Earth! To top it all off, Ned is so kind and personable and gracious. Even though we've never met in person, I feel as though we truly were his guests. I was a tad apprehensive that our simple family of four might feel like we were staying somewhere that was a bit too luxurious for us, but there is no air of pretension at Ned's; you feel welcome and at home the moment you step inside. Thank you for all the work you do, Ned and team, so we all can enjoy your slice of Heaven!
Property just as pictures show. Excellent communication with Ned, property owner.
We enjoyed our stay with multiple generations of family. Kids and adults loved the faerie hunt. The fireplaces were great, we kept fires going most of our stay! The hot tub accommodated all of our guests. The great room windows were perfect to watch the snow fall, beautiful. Would definitely come back for another trip to the island.
Glad to hear your family getaway was a success, Annalisa. You’re our first guest that brought their own faerie dust! Must have been fun for the kids to know the faeries had visited. Snowfall is a rare occurrence on Whidbey... a special winter treat. Glad you enjoyed it. We’d love to have you, Mark and the family back again. Best regards, Ned
Stormy Soaring Eagle
You can not control the weather and we knew up front that it was going to be stormy. With the tall Fir trees blowing in the wind and white-caps on Skagit Bay, we were snug in front of a warm fire enjoying it all. Soaring Eagle Lodge far exceeds its VRBO description. We will return again, hopefully in better weather.
Doug and Barb... a warm fire can make all the difference! And a good book. I hope on your next visit you'll be able to see the impressive view of Mount Baker from the great room. I'll see what I can do about the weather next time! We appreciate you taking the time to write a review. Ned
Piece of Paradise
Absolutely spectacular house and stunning surroundings. Words are inadequate to express such an experience. First, let me say, Ned is a pure delight and fabulous host. He’s quick to respond and it’s obvious he takes great pride not only in his house, but making sure his guests have a great time. The attention to detail is second to none. We marveled at the workmanship inside and out. The kitchen truly is stocked with everything one would want or need. Even stevia sweetener is offered! Three fireplaces and the wood is provided. It may seem a little thing but the size of the logs are just perfect. The beds..oh my...we had to force ourselves to get up. Lots to do in the area but we had a hard time pulling ourselves away to explore. Deer and eagles greeted us. Wow!! Waking up to those views...Ii wonder if this is what heaven looks like!! Ned, I appreciated the little notes around the house for guests regarding processes, procedures and direction of where to find different things. Makes it so easy as a guest! My friends and I couldn’t have found a better place for our annual get away!! Thank you Ned (and Lam)!!
Thank you so much, Sue, for taking the time to write this great review of your experience at the lodge. We work hard to provide a first rate, five star experience and I'm glad we lived up to your expectations. We look forward to having you back for your annual friends getaway. Happy Holidays. Ned
Wonderful Thanksgiving!
The Soaring Eagle Lodge is better than advertised! The home is perfectly clean and decorated. My wife didn’t want leave. We had an amazing and restful time. Ned was great to deal with, and all communication was clear and helpful. We will definitely be planning our next trip to the lodge! Thanks Ned!
Chris... glad your Thanksgiving at the Lodge was a success. Thanks for the great review. We look forward to having you and your family back again in the future. Ned
Incredible views, very relaxing
From start to finish, this was an incredible experience. Ned is a pleasure to work with and the house and grounds are amazing. They have thought of everything to keep their guests comfortable and occupied. We look forward to our return! Thanks again for sharing your home with us!
Thanks Chris for taking the time to write this great review. We hope to see you again soon. Ned
