The cottage was quite charming. It was the perfect distance between Oak Harbor and Coupeville for our needs. We would definitely stay again. It provided just enough space for the two of us and we enjoyed the solitude it provided when we returned from town. Our hosts were great. They were readily available when I had a few questions.

We really enjoyed our stay at Juanita and Marty‘s place! They were very responsive to our questions when we had them and included many personal touches to our stay (like the homemade muffins that were made for us)! Their place was very convenient to visiting the Coupeville and Oak Harbor area. It was quiet and peaceful. We really liked having the kitchenette area, washer/dryer and fireplace available in the place as well.

Rose garden cottage

Cottage was enhanced by the owner's beautiful gardens - particularly the rose garden right outside the cottage door. I spent long days in class, so enjoyed coming back to this lovely setting. Host was very prompt in replies. Property was clean and attractive. It was a short distance to the Pacific NW Art School where I was spending my days.

Our stay at the Rose Cottage was perfect. The cottage has been thoughtfully designed and appointed with soft colors and attention to detail. The kitchen is large and well appointed, with everything we needed. Multiple window views look onto a huge rose and flower garden and even have peeks of Penn Cove and the surrounding mountains. The cottage is quiet and peaceful. We slept well. There is a washer and dryer, especially helpful for our 15 day stay. Check-in was easy with a door code. The hosts are on-site, in the main house, and promptly attentive as needed. We feel they thought of everything for their guests. They are also a wealth of knowledge of the area as they have lived here many years. Top Notch Hosts!!! In addition, as a road cyclist, I found the Whidbey Cyclist Map easy to use and many low traffic routes are accessible leaving right from the cottage. From this "base", we traversed the entire island and visited many artists, restaurants and State and Local Parks where we hiked and biked and had picnics.

Best vacation we’ve ever taken.

Marty and Juanita are the sweetest hosts. The Cottage is absolutely spotless and has everything you need to cook, clean, do laundry, and feel like you’re coming home. If there’s something you need that you don’t find, a quick text and Juanita will be right over as they live next door on the property. Don’t let that deter you, because the cottage still has a very private feeling. Going in May was a great choice since there’s tulips and other spring blooms, though I heard a bit later in the summer you wake up to the smell of roses. Marty and Juanita are willing to give you space as well as hang out and chat, which we appreciated both. The location is among beautiful farmland which gives it a rural feeling even though you’re less than 10 minutes from Oak Harbor and Coupeville. Mountain and water views are spectacular! And, you can’t find a better sunset on the Puget Sound! Awesome birdwatching, more eagles than you can believe! Something I wished for was slightly more informative check in instructions. However, M and J were just a quick phone call away (they happened to be out when we arrived) and we got in with little issue. I know had we arrived at 4 when check in was scheduled they would have been right there to help. Side note: Whidbey Island is much more LGBTQ friendly than we anticipated, which was a huge plus! My partner and I will be back soon!

Lovely spot for a weekend away

My wife and I really enjoyed this space as we got away from the city for a few days. The size was perfect where we didn’t feel right on top of each other, but were cozy in the small cottage together. The space was as advertised, and had everything we felt like we needed for our time away.

Wonderful break and relaxation

Both Juanita and Marty made us feel very welcomed in their lovely private cottage. They were very kind and gracious to us as we had some check in date challenges that they were able to help us with. Everything we needed was in the cottage which was very clean and well laid out. Every afternoon my wife and I went on the upper deck and enjoyed our sun downer ritual, while watching the fighter jets fly over above. From this location we were able to do day trips up and down the island, while using Oak Harbour as our main source as a grocery home base. This is a great spot for a lovely “time out”, which we both appreciated!
