Welcome to The Lodge at El Haven — the perfect large-group stay inside a private 23-acre gated waterfront estate on Whidbey Island.
The Lodge is designed for groups who want privacy, comfort, and convenience. With 11 private guest suites, ensuite bathrooms, a shared kitchen, dining area, fireside lounge, and access to the estate’s beach, dock, tennis court, putting green, dog park, lawns, and gardens, it is ideal for retreats, wedding guests, family groups, corporate stays, and multi-room getaways.
This is one of the rarest lodging setups on Whidbey: private rooms and bathrooms for your group, plus the beauty and amenities of a full waterfront estate.
THE LODGE
The Lodge gives guests a simple but powerful advantage: everyone can stay close together without giving up privacy.
Each guest suite offers a private bedroom and ensuite bathroom, making it easy for couples, families, colleagues, or wedding guests to stay comfortably under one roof. Many rooms include desks or seating areas, peaceful views of the trees and grounds, and clean, comfortable layouts designed for restful stays.
At the center of the Lodge is a shared common area with a full kitchen, island seating, dining space, living room, fireplace, and TV. It works beautifully for group breakfasts, retreat breaks, casual dinners, planning sessions, movie nights, or relaxed evenings after a day exploring Whidbey.
WHY GROUPS LOVE IT
The Lodge is especially strong for groups because it solves the biggest problem with large vacation rentals: not enough private bedrooms or bathrooms.
Here, guests get:
✔︎ 11 private guest suites ✔︎ Ensuite bathrooms ✔︎ Shared kitchen and dining area ✔︎ Comfortable fireside lounge ✔︎ Space to gather without crowding ✔︎ Easy access to the estate grounds and waterfront
It is practical, comfortable, and rare — especially for wedding parties, corporate retreats, and multi-family groups.
ESTATE AMENITY ACCESS
Guests of The Lodge also enjoy access to the estate’s shared outdoor amenities:
✔︎ 23-acre gated estate setting ✔︎ 800 ft private beach access ✔︎ Beautiful Puget Sound views ✔︎ Deep-water dock ✔︎ Tennis court ✔︎ Putting green ✔︎ Fully fenced dog park ✔︎ Mature landscaping ✔︎ Expansive lawns ✔︎ Garden paths and waterfront walking areas
Walk down to the shoreline, watch the tide move through the bay, play tennis, practice putting, let your dog enjoy the fenced dog park, or simply enjoy the peaceful privacy of the estate.
WATERFRONT, BEACH & DOCK
The estate’s waterfront is one of the most memorable parts of the stay.
Follow the path down through the trees to the private beach and dock area, where the view opens across Puget Sound. Enjoy beach walks, photos by the dock, quiet time by the water, and the rare feeling of having access to a private Whidbey Island shoreline.
DOG-FRIENDLY
Dogs are welcome, and the fully fenced dog park is a rare bonus for guests traveling with pets. Your dog can enjoy a secure outdoor area while your group enjoys the rest of the estate.

• Corporate retreats • Executive offsites • Wedding guest stays • Family groups • Multi-family vacations • Friends’ gatherings • Retreat leaders • Dog-friendly group stays • Guests who want private rooms and bathrooms within a waterfront estate
