Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay here during Thanksgiving—truly a resort experience with its expansive grounds, gorgeous views, and luxurious amenities. And the host was readily available with initial questions. During our stay we ventured to the nearby farm and vineyard for wine tasting. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Simply Magical!
I invited a group of girlfriends for a weekend away on Whidbey. Goldilocks turned out to be beyond perfect for our needs. The location and view are spectacular. The house is beautiful and incredibly comfortable. It was the perfect setting to relax, cook together, sit by the fire and just soak up the gorgeous nature around us. Highly recommend. We'll be back!
