Family Vacation Fun at the Columbia Beach
House
(Click
on photos to enlarge)
Kids love beaches! Relax on the deck while the kids dig in the sand and
play by the water. Catching crabs and fishing are great family activities
that kids, parents and grandparents enjoy (and the eating is good too). Whidbey Island
has lots of other things for the kids to see and do. With luck, the kids
will even look up from their video games!
Note that the summer fun doesn't have to end just because one parent needs to
go to back to work. Commuting to I5 corridor jobs from the Whidbey
Island Beach House is a snap because you can walk to the ferry in 5 minutes.
Leave the car (and ferry lines) in Mukilteo. Extend your stay at the
beach. Special rates are available.
