This was perfect place for my dog and I to escape. Charming and cosy, very easy to relax and enjoy the excellent view of the water. Excellent communications with the owner. Will be planning more escapes to this wonderful place in the future.

Our family loved the view and features of this house. The beds were very comfortable. Having a playground nearby was nice for our grands. The owner was friendly and accessible.

We loved this house! The location was perfect - grocery store and restaurants not more than 2 minutes away. And the view! We thoroughly enjoyed watching the water while we ate dinner and played cards.

This charming home is located right on the water, with the sounds of the waves capturing our hearts right away. There was plenty of space for the family and enough extras, like the piano, games and puzzles, to make it easy to cozy up on the comfy couch or sit on the back deck watching the wildlife and waves. We will definitely be coming back!

This house is a great location, right on the water and pet friendly! We walked our dog around the neighborhood a few times and she loved it. The location was really great and central, just a few blocks from the grocery store and coffee shops. The owners were great at communicating everything for check-in and provided everything we would need for the stay, including plenty of towels, blankets, and space heaters in every room, which was a nice touch for the winter month. I would definitely stay here again.

This was a very comfortable, low-key beach house. It poured rain most of the time we were there, but we fit in a walk on the beach and a trip into Langley for lunch. It was great to be able to bring our dog, too.

Such a beautiful, peaceful view. Well equipped house. Best night’s sleep ever! We loved our stay at Baby Beach and hope to come back.

My family and I had a great stay at Jessica’s place. The home is lovely and location is beautiful. We used the kayaks, enjoyed sitting on the deck in the morning with a cup of coffee and loved the peaceful neighborhood. Jess was a wonderful and responsive host. We highly recommend this vacation home.

We had such a relaxing stay on Baby Beach :) It was perfect for me, my husband and our toddler with loads of family friendly activities around the island, but also just the right amount of space in the home. The views were spectacular and the home had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. We especially loved the fireplace and the kayaks, as well as the park for our little one that was in walking distance! Will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful long weekend at the beach house. So comfortable and stocked with everything we needed. We stayed cozy with the wood stove (with an ample supply of seasoned firewood...thank you) and an amazing view down the bay. Enjoyed our beach walks and close proximity to the neighborhood park. Great location, close to groceries & restaurants in Freeland, and just a short drive to Double Bluff, Bayview and Langley. Great communication with our host, Jess. Hope we get to return in warmer weather & get some kayaking time on the tranquil water. Thank you for sharing your beach house with us!

This was a fall girlfriend getaway. We enjoyed the patio, beach and views on our sunny day and stayed warm playing cards and watching stormy water on day 2. Jess was very accommodating and responsive.

Perfect place for a relaxing getaway! The kids had access to a public park/playground with just a brief walk down the beach. Simple kayaks for everyone to enjoy on the water. Wood stove to warm up by, and plenty of dry wood. Great communication with host. The place was ready for us a few hours early, and we were able to stay an extra hour later!

We rented this house for Christmas weekend. All of us were comfortable and so taken with the views from the giant bay windows. We were graced by a whale pod a couple of times during our stay to make it all the more magical. 10/10 will be back!

Jess' place is so great, very homey, can't wait to come back in summer/fall season to experience the inviting fire pit and SUP. Kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need, spice and appliance wise, as well as accessories. Jess is great at communicating and super prompt to take care of anything that comes up. I highly recommend this place for families, plenty of rooms and beds to spread out in. Also, if you have a toddler/baby, great house. Has a lot of entertainment for kids and some kids books and toys. Overall, highly recommended and we will be back :)

Older property with character and charm. If you like living in a home and not a glass and steel box by the water . then this is the place. Serenity is a word to that comes to mind when you pick this part of Freeland Town - Whidbey Island Washington State.

This was a wonderful house right on the water in Freeland, WA. Not only is this probably the best location on the whole bay, but the house has everything you need to have a great time. Within walking distance to great stores that have everything you need. We had my in laws and my 16 month old son and we all had an amazing time. the owner was very responsive and generous with their supplies and amenities!

8/10

The view is beautiful- steps away from the beach. I was fortunate enough to stay 4 months. Friendly neighbors and a great place to bring my dog - Had a problem with the host coming onto the property and into the house the first two months. It was resolved when it was addressed .

I rented the beach house spring 2010. I brought my Mom for a Mother / Daughter weekend. The house very nice and has everything that you need. It is indeed a magical place, a cozy home with beautiful views right on the water! I will be back! Thank you so much.
