This spacious apartment is half a block from the harbor and easy walking distance of our very cute downtown area where all the faires and festivals take place! Completely renovated and with wonderful views from the deck as well as the dining area windows! Full kitchen that is fully appointed! The 2 bedrooms have queen beds and the sleeper sofa is also a queen (very comfortable!) and if you have extra 'little people', the ottoman makes into a twin bed and there is also a rollaway bed and W/D.
Look no further! And check out that view! Have your cup of coffee or glass of wine while enjoying the wonderful view! This apartment has its own keyless entry and is a 2 bedroom (queen beds), 1 bath with a queen sleeper sofa as well. Sleeps 6 easily! The kitchen is well-appointed and the living/dining area is spacious and comfortable.

* Activities *
Deception Pass Bridge (one of the most photographed!) and the surrounding area is a must to explore!
PBY Museum is really well done with the history of Oak Harbor AND there is a plane to see in real life!
Fort Ebey and Fort Casey (from WW2) are just a short drive away.
Historic Coupeville (the oldest city is Washington) is just 10 miles south.
Anacortes, on Fidalgo Island is fun to explore.
Port Townsend (on the Olympic Peninsula is a fun ferry ride (reservations are recommended for that ferry unless you walk on).
This entire apartment is yours for the entirety of your stay! You likely won't be seeing me and you may come and go as you please and with the keyless entry there are no keys to worry about losing! You might want to make a note of the code however. :-) Please make yourself at home and use any of the items that are there just for you!
There is a courtyard that is shared between 2 buildings (8 apartments) which has a table and chairs and plenty of lawn area to sit out and enjoy the mostly delightful weather! Take your lunch or dinner outside and enjoy an al fresco meal.
There is plenty of free parking and assigned spaces as well.
Located near the downtown area makes this space extra convenient for strolling down for a coffee drink or smoothie at Whidbey Coffee (a personal favorite!). If wine is more your style, The Terrace is the place for you! Tell Brian that Nancy sent you! And do order one of his incredible Small Bites - yum! Smith Park is just at the end of the street and is home to the namesake of our town being filled with Garry Oaks! And they have recently re-discovered wildflowers growing there so if the park looks a little unkempt, that is why! There are some bronze statues located downtown showing some of the history of the city so make it a scavenger hunt and see how many you can find!
A car is pretty much a necessity to really enjoy the area. With several state parks on the island you'll want to drive and it's a good idea to go ahead and get a Discover Pass to hang on your rearview mirror to take advantage of that savings. There is a free bus system on the island as well. Parking around the apartments is free. There are assigned spaces as well as extra spaces for anyone to use.
This is generally a quiet neighborhood but is also in an 8-unit apartment building with families so there may be the occasional get-together or just families having fun. Occasionally, the city hosts events (carnivals, faires, etc) which do generate some noise of people having fun! Also to note; there is a Naval Air Station nearby and jets do occasionally fly over. Normally their flight pattern isn't right over the city and harbor but sometimes, rarely, they do. We love our flying sailors!
For those very special people that have allergies to any number of airborne pathogens! Should you require one, there is at your disposal a very high quality HEPA filtration air purifier that we can turn on for you several hours before your arrival to make sure that the air inside is completely free of those pathogens! Just be sure to let me know and we can get it all set up for you!
