Great Stay

Place was great for kids and adults! Sandy each right out front. Volleyball in the back yard. House well appointed with games, movies, beds and the kitchen had things like salt/pepper/seasoning/oil so we didn't bring all that.

Mutiny Bay Getaway

The house was recently renovated and our stay on this beach front property was a 10+. Owners very accommodating. Beach toys and life preservers present. Outdoor grill & fire pit were pluses! Kids enjoy crabbing and fishing during low tides. Outdoor patio area was spacious and comfortable. A special place! Tom Keyser

Wonderful stay on Mutiny Bay

The Mutiny Bay Getaway was fantastic! You couldn’t ask for a better location. Kathy and Michael have thought of everything and were very easy to communicate with and contact. We were a family of 10 and we had plenty of room to spread out. The kids had so much fun on the beach. Place was clean, modern, and comfortable. I cannot say enough positive things about it. Would recommend to anyone visiting Whidbey Island. Thank you Michael and Kathy!

Family Weekend on Whidbey

A weekend on Mutiny Bay is an annual event for our family. We have stayed at this location four times and have a reservation for next year. The hosts are very responsive. The house fits the needs of our family well. Everyone has a good time. The views are extraordinary. We love watching the ships go by with the Olympics in the background.

Amazing vacation!

We felt so fortunate to have a week at Mutiny Bay Getaway. It was a perfect house for our family of 5. The open floor plan downstairs allowed us all to do different activities but near to each other. The bedrooms are clean and very comfortable. The view is spectacular from every room and breathtaking from the back patio and beach. The location on the bay is ideal for beach exploring in both directions or lounging and taking in the many sights on the water and in the sky. The owners were very communicative and kindly called us when we couldn't figure out the VCR (kids wanted to experience vintage movie watching). A point to future renters is that the kayaks/boats in the photos are not part of the rental. And you'll need to pick up firewood for the pit. The $6 bundle at Payless was enough for a fun evening of toasting marshmallows. We otherwise had everything on hand that we needed for a perfect getaway on Whidbey.

Beach Boys!

We had 5 grandsons, who absolutely LOVED staying here, as did the adults!!! The boys lived on the beach, hunting for shells, rocks, sea creatures, etc. they built sand forts, kayaked, explored, saw eagles, porpoise, herons, seals, and loved watching all the ships on Mutiny Bay! We adults loved a lot of the same, along with relaxing on the patio, walking the beach, watching the gorgeous sunsets, playing sports with the kids in the yard and the nearby hikes and wine tasting. Thank you for a wonderful week! As Arnold would say, “We’ll be back!!!” 😁😂 Lori, Dave and family

Fun beach house

We had a great time staying at this water front property. The house was clean and the kitchen had everything needed to cook meals for our group. Location was perfect for exploring the island. I should mention the mattresses are a bit past their prime, sagging and misshaped. The 9am check out time is highly unusual and a bit cruel especially considering the check in time isn’t until 5pm. I get covid cleaning etc but somehow every other vrbo has managed to keep it within the 10-11 am window. Other than those two small complaints which did not keep us from enjoying the property and the well maintained house, we would recommend staying here.

Perfect even in winter

Our family group of 10 loved this property. Even in late December there was plenty to keep us entertained indoors. As we planned to do a lot of cooking, we brought a lot of our own cooking tools, but the kitchen was so well stocked that we didn't use anything we brought. We all agreed that it was probably the most well stocked vacation property we have ever rented. In addition to the kitchen, there were ample towels, blankets, games, videos and everything else we could possibly need. The house was clean and the location perfect. After enjoying our stay so much in the winter, the summer would be even more amazing and we all want to come back.

Stunning location and view

Our extended family of 7 had a wonderful Thanksgiving at this home. Every bedroom looks directly out on the Sound and with 3 bathrooms, no one was complaining about lack of privacy. We had beautiful weather on Thanksgiving Day and were fortunate to be able to spend most of that day outside on the deck. The fireplace indoors was cozy on the days the weather kept us in. Freeland has a great shopping center with a really nice grocery store, so anything we needed was easy to get. The kitchen was well-stocked other than some serving dishes, but those we brought from home. We would never get tired of that view and would love to go back!

Amazing Getaway

We just returned from 5 unforgettable days at Mutiny Bay Getaway. Four generations of our family gathered to honor my dad who recently passed, at his most favorite spot in the world, Mutiny Bay, where we vacationed for over 40 years at Mutiny Bay Resort until it was torn down. We were so fortunate to find this gorgeous house just steps from the old resort. This beautiful home lacks nothing. Everything from any kitchen item you might need to sand toys for the kids, games, movies, puzzles etc. You can’t get any closer to the beach than this house, we thought about venturing out to the neighboring towns but couldn’t pull ourselves away from this house and beach. We are already planning our family trip here for next year. Thank you Gersch family for sharing your home with us, it was magical and such a special time for our family.

40th Birthday at the Beach

The only problem with this house is that we couldn’t stay forever. A group of 7 adults gathered for a 40th birthday and this was the best spot on the island. Not only was it a great home base for exploring Langley and Freeland, we loved being right on the beach. Despite the overcast weather, we were treated to a fantastic sunset each night. When the tide was in, we watched little silver fish jump and play in the waves. A couple of eagles visited daily, while we loved the eagles there was a tense moment when we thought we might watch them carry off a few ducklings!! The fire pit was an awesome place to hang out, stay warm and watch the sunset. This house had everything we needed and more. It far exceeded our expectations and I know we’ll do our best to return. The host was so generous as well. I accidentally spilled some water and we grabbed some colorful towels to clean it up. Later in the weekend one couple had to leave and we thought another might take their place so we washed the sheets with some towels - including the colorful ones. It turned everything pink - ooops! - we were able to bleach the sheets but some bath towels stayed pink. We took them with us and asked the host to charge us for replacements, but they said we were good. If you’re even thinking about booking the house this is your sign. DO IT.

Why they chose this property

We scoured the entire Puget Sound region for three years to find the perfect beach for gatherings with family and friends. We finally found it at Mutiny Bay. There could not be a more beautiful or more perfect vista. West facing makes for a longer day and beautiful sunsets.

What makes this property unique

One of the only wide sandy beaches in the area, Mutiny Bay Getaway is perfectly situated at the center of the bay. You are right on the beach. Watching the beauty that nature provides is incomparable.
