About this property

This is an early 1900s waterfront farmhouse with lots of character and vintage charm. The glassed in-front porch allows you to kick back and enjoy the picturesque views of Mystery Bay in any weather. We have fast wifi and a blue-ray player. Three wonderful parks close by, two within one mile. We are 16 miles from the beautiful seaport city of Port Townsend, known for music, dining, art galleries, parks, etc. We are about 20 minutes to Port Ludlow and around 40 minutes to 7 cedars casino in Sequim.
The house has two bedrooms in the main house with queen beds. The third bedroom is a converted utility room that is separated from the main house by the entry hall. It has a twin-size bed and a private 1/4 bath.
The kitchen comes stocked with hopefully everything you might need to cook with, both a drip coffee maker and an espresso maker. I keep coffee, sugar, and dry creamer stocked. Fort Flagler state park is about 2 1/2 miles away and East Beach and Mystery Bay State Park are less than a mile. East Beach Park does not require a pass and is one of the nicest beaches around for walking and for kids to play in the sand. We are kid friendly and have a scavenger hunt with a small prize at the end.
Olympic Kayak Rentals is located at Fort Flagler. They offer guided tours and offer kayak rentals for those that want to be off on their own. You need to check out their website to get more information.
Marrowstone Winery has live music, and often food trucks on weekends during the Summer months. There are some picnic tables, and chairs if you get there early. Plenty of room for kids to play or to put out a blanket, kick back and enjoy the tunes. They have a variety of wines and nonalcoholic drinks to choose from.

Nice Little Farmhouse

This is a cute older farmhouse. It was very comfortable, clean and well suited for 2 couples. The owner was friendly and accomodating. The location was perfect for our event, with a great view of Mystery Bay. The wifi worked great. The only problem we had, was not enough grounded (3-prong) electrical outlets in the house, they were mostly the old style outlets (2-prong). They work fine for most things, but we were trying to find some place to plug in a crockpot, while still leaving the coffee maker plugged in. We plugged it in on the floor in the living room and it worked out fine. Overall, we had a very nice stay and would stay there again!

Charming and peaceful getaway

We recently traveled to Marrowstone Island for our niece's wedding. We spent three nights at the cottage and enjoyed it very much. The house overlooks the bay and we saw a variety of wildlife from the sunporch. The home was clean and had everything we needed. It is a short drive to Port Townsend and an even shorter drive to the Finn River Cidery. There is also a nice little mercantile within easy walking distance of the cottage. I would definitely stay there again if we are back in the area!

Not Fancy, Just Right

This property is just as advertised. Nothing in the house was worn out or broken. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed with well used, but high quality dishes, pots, pans, and utensils. The living room and enclosed porch are simple and plain, but really comfortable and enjoyable because of that. The view from the porch is spectacular. The location on Mystery Bay is really beautiful. We think we'd like to go back.

Island Time

We found this farmhouse to be an exceptional place to stay to get away from it all. Very clean with all the things you might need. Private, with a beautiful yard that's lovely to wander through. Beds were very comfortable. Views are stunning with lovely sunsets and lots of birds. Nordland General Store is right next door with a great selection of local food, wine and gifts. Excellent communication with the owners who are there to answer questions, or help with anything you might need. Overall, it was an wonderful stay and I hope to book the farmhouse again in the near future!

Relaxing 😌

The farmhouse was a perfect getaway from over busy lives. The home had every amenity you could ask for. Every spot we visited was a quick trip away. Deb was considerate to any needs and even check on us (via messages). We appreciate her kindness and the peacefulness of the farm house.

Old time Serenity by the bay

Great restored, well stocked comfortable farm house with magnificent water view. Deborah thought of everything and communicated well, no matter how small the request. Easy check in check out. Grest info card’s through out house. Within 5 min drive great vineyard with live music on Saturday evenings. Parks close. No need to drive into Port Townsend for some great eating spots. Would highly recommend

Old Farm House

This is an old farmhouse with lots of charm. Deb & Dave make sure you are comfortable with a fully stocked kitchen and Wi-Fi setup and cell phone charging cords. The house is clean with plenty of fresh linens and towels. Our group had a great time. The front of the house showed waterfront views from every window and the backyard was lovely in the evening to eat, drink and be merry. My only suggestion is to have a more secure back door and lock; otherwise, it was lovely.

Beautiful cozy farmhouse

We enjoyed our stay at the farm house for three nights. The beds are good, it’s very quiet, and the view is amazing. We spent time in Port Townsend and on Whidbey Island. I wish we could’ve kayaked because the water looked so peaceful, but we did walk around in Mystery, Bay State Park. We also toured the Mystery Bay farm with the goats and their goat cheese making business. It is just up the road. Highly recommend the farm tour! Beautiful island and cozy property! We will come again.

Farmhouse with a view, we’ll-stocked

The farmhouse is quaint, with appropriate decor. Pantry, children’s play area and library are fabulously stocked. We made pancakes mac’n’cheese and terrific coffee, all from the supplies. We only had to adapt to 1 and 1/4 baths, not the 2 that we expected. View is gorgeous. Host responded quickly to every request,

Splendid retreat!

Wow! We had a wonderful experience at this property! All the comforts of home. The host took extra care to make sure the guests felt welcome and at home. This sun porch was delightful for afternoon cocktail hour. Our daughter (19yr) very much enjoyed the treasure hunt. Never too old for fun and games. Thank you again. ❤️

Great location!

We stayed at the Mystery Bay Farmhouse for four nights. The weather was pretty stormy during our stay, but that didn't bother us. The view of Mystery Bay is amazing. We would watch a seal or an otter make a morning commute out of the bay and watch it's return in the evening. The beaches at the parks on the island and around Port Townsend are great for looking at sea creatures. The toys provided were great. Our kids loved playing with the toys and playing board games. The house is well-stocked. We forgot several food/kitchen items at home that were helpfully provided at the house. The house is warm and cozy. We would definitely stay again!

Deb, the property was perfect, great morning coffee view, and a nice place inside. Liked that you had a radio for music, the night lights were a nice touch (didn't have to leave lights on to find your way around at night). Didn't have much time outside but I did see that it was set up nicely. Thanks Tom

About the host

Hosted by Deborah Abercrombie

My husband David and I love living on this island, and feel like we are living in paradise. We love crabbing and being out on the water. We love being hosts and make it our mission that our guests enjoy their stay.

Why they chose this property

This was my husband's childhood home growing up. There is a wonderful sense of community among our neighbors. The quaint and charming general store next door is very handy, having pretty much anything a person might need including an espresso bar and reasonably priced Kayak rentals. There is a goat dairy farm next door which is well known for it's delicious cheese that can be purchased at the store. Kids and adults alike enjoy the short walk up Beveridge lane to visit the goats that are often in the field right next to the road. We have been using this as a vacation rental since July of 2017 and all the guests have loved it. You can see reviews on my airbnb listing under the same name.

What makes this property unique

Spectacular views. Scavenger hunt for kids. A nice walk (less than one mile) to wonderful beaches. Close to parks and only 15 miles to Port Townsend, a beautiful Victorian Seaport town with lots to do for tourists. We have a private beach where you can launch your canoe, or Kayak but less than two miles away is the beautiful Mystery Bay State park with a boat launch and dock for mooring a larger boat.
