----------------------
Island Living—experience the wild side of Whidbey!
Enjoy breathtaking views of the Olympic Mountains, Strait of Juan de Fuca, and the San Juan Islands to the west, and Swantown Lake to the east.
Sunset Beach Haven is a birdwatcher's paradise with resident and migratory waterfowl, frequent eagle visits, and occasional sightings of sea mammals and even whales.
The 900 sq foot rustic cabin is bright and airy, with water views from every room (except the bathroom), cedar ceilings, and new lighting and a ceiling fan in the living room that keep it cheery year-round, even on stormy days.
NEW! AC for 2025. Two efficient AC window units now added during peak months to each bedroom (total count of #2) for those few warm summer days, though usually opening the windows to capture the ocean breeze are enough to cool off.
The new updated kitchen packs in all the creature comforts of home with stainless appliances and even a small dishwasher.
Heating has been updated with baseboard electric heat and is cozy year-round.
Outside you'll enjoy our expansive deck, private fire pit with plenty of firewood, and seasonal outdoor grill and steps to the beach (available March through October).
The full basement includes a washer/dryer that you can use, beach toys, and extra supplies to make your stay easy and enjoyable.
With over 300 combined five-star reviews, our guests love what sets us apart. We truly value you! We are convinced that once you check-in, you won't want to check-out.
Best for 4 guests, with an exception for 5 guests (extra fee).
If Sunset Beach Haven is booked, check out our other waterfront property on famous Penn Cove, "Sandpiper Haven".
--------------------------------
Each day brings beautiful views of ships, birds and sometimes seals and otters, and occasionally whales playing in the water, and of the snowy peaks of the Olympic Mountains rising in the distance across the waters of Admiralty Inlet. To the east, watch the sun rise over the Swantown Lake Wildlife Refuge. Every window has a view of the water, but the Living Room is west facing to capture the warmth of the afternoon sun on a large private deck in fair weather, or inspire romance watching storm-churned waves while comfortably seated inside.
Evenings can be spent curled up with a book on super comfy new living furniture, playing games and doing puzzles with friends and family, or watching a movie. Use the grill on the deck (available seasonally) and end the evening with a camp fire in our outdoor fire pit (wood is usually available.) Or, you may prefer an evening out with great dining options in Coupeville, Oak Harbor and beyond.
The house sleeps up to 4 comfortably, with up to 5 by approval (and an extra fee). There is a pillow-top Queen Bed in the Master, and two twins in the second bedroom. The twins can be pushed together with added bedding to "make a king bed". There is a sleeper sofa is in the Living Room with added foam topper. We even provide a portable crib and bedding for infants.
Action seekers may launch their own kayaks and paddle boards to test their skills on the exposed beaches of Whidbey Island's west shore, or make the ten minute trip to launch in world famous Penn Cove for a quieter, more relaxing experience. Take the opportunity to explore the hiking at Ebey's Landing, and bike the trails of "The Kettles" exploring a landscape scoured by glaciers thousands of years ago.
Sunset Beach Haven has been updated since 2012 with new finishes, appliances, dishes, cookware, and furnishings. Wiring, and plumbing have also been updated and insulation has been added as well. New radiant heaters keep the house comfortable, even in the winter storms. New ceiling fan in the LR adds comfort along with NEW seasonal window AC units in the bedrooms.
The historic waterfront town of Coupeville, can be reached in about ten minutes by car. Enjoy a "Practical Magic" walking tour, wine tasting, or try fresh Penn Cove mussels at any of several great restaurants.
Oak Harbor, to the east, is even closer for major shopping amenities and restaurants. Deception Pass Bridge and State Park are about 15 minutes north. To the south lies Fort Ebey, Fort Casey, Ebey's Landing and the nearby Coupeville Ferry with service to historic Port Townsend. Greenbank Winery, antiques shops, galleries, and the town of Langley are further afield.
Sunset Beach Haven is best suited for: families, romantic getaways, couples retreats, girls weekends away, small reunions, great stays when attending a wedding, holiday gatherings, anniversary present for the grandparents, rewards for employees, adventure-seekers, and many more.
