Z-Resort - Oak Harbor, WA
New Vacasa Listing
Peaceful Island Retreat with Private Dock on Whidbey Island
Escape to the "Z" Resort, a tranquil canal-front retreat located just outside Oak Harbor in a peaceful residential community—offering the perfect balance of comfort, space, and the laid-back charm of island living.
Just 90 minutes north of Seattle, Whidbey Island is the gateway to the breathtaking San Juan Islands and offers some of the best boating and coastal exploration in the Pacific Northwest. Arrive via the iconic Deception Pass Bridge or take the scenic ferry from Mukilteo to Clinton—either way, your island adventure begins the moment you travel here.
This waterfront home sits directly on a quiet canal with direct access to Puget Sound, making it a dream for boaters, kayakers, and water lovers of all kinds. Step out onto the spacious deck and enjoy panoramic views of the water just steps away. Whether you’re sipping coffee at sunrise, launching a paddleboard for a morning cruise, or relaxing in the evening with a glass of wine as the sun sets over the water, the connection to nature is constant and calming.
The private dock is perfect for boating enthusiasts and can accommodate vessels up to 55 feet in length (shallow draft required at low tide). Guests often spot seals, seabirds, and the occasional eagle soaring overhead. When the tide is right, try your hand at seasonal crabbing or walk along the nearby shores in search of driftwood and sea treasures. The rhythmic sounds of the water and the salty breeze create a serene backdrop that instantly melts away stress.
Inside, the home features an open-concept design that creates a seamless flow between the spacious living and dining areas and the fully equipped chef’s kitchen, complete with a gas range, refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher. Large windows throughout bring in natural light and frame peaceful views of the canal.
There are two private bedrooms: a king bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a queen bedroom with a full bath just steps away. A separate family room includes a vintage pinball machine for a fun, nostalgic touch and offers additional sleeping space with a queen-size air mattress available for guest use. The living room features a cozy wood stove, and guests can enjoy a big-screen smart TV, DVD player, and stereo system for entertainment.
This home is dog-friendly, so feel free to bring your furry companions along for the adventure.
Come enjoy the beauty and simplicity of true waterfront living at the "Z" Resort—your perfect home base for exploring all that Whidbey Island has to offer.
