Carol Lee’s Attic

Carol Lee’s attic was a savior. When we couldn’t find a last minute place to stay with our dog she was more than accommodating to help us out. Her place is beautiful, complete with a stunning garden and clean/​comfortable lodging.
I highly recommend her lodgings for anyone visiting Whidbey. It’s very affordable, and located very close to Langley.

For all you guys out there who cringe at the notion of staying at a B&B, sharing bathrooms & breakfast with strangers, annoying hosts, etc., this place is the ticket! Accommodations are separate from the house with its own separate entrance, your own fully-​contained, well-​appointed space, your own huge bedroom (w/​king-​size bed & views), fireplace, cozy furniture, TV, bathroom w/​jacuzzi tub (w/​views from tub), your own kitchenette stocked w/​items to make your mate your own breakfast (on your own schedule), dining space, coffee, tea, etc. There are books, games & dvd’s on the shelves. «Attic» is divided into two separate spaces: bedroom/​living space all one large, open area w/​bathroom/​large closet area in 2^nd room – like having your own studio apt. I agree with all comments from reviewer Leslie M. Has all the charm of traditional B&B but your own separate accommodations – you are the only guests. Lovely grounds & garden, on gently-​sloping parcel overlooking Saratoga Passage & evergreen trees. We stayed there in July 2011 and would definitely stay there again. Perfect for couples, «gal’s getaway,» etc. can sleep more than 2.

This adorable space over Carol Lee’s garage feels more like a cottage house than an attic. The décor is casually elegant and the amenities include a king size bed, a gas fireplace, a jaccuzzi tub and a view of Saratoga Passage. Hostess Carol Lee provides home-​baked breakfast goodies as well as other breakfast staples like cereal and milk, fruit, yogurt, etc.
Hosts Carol and Roy were accessible without being intrusive. Our stay was quiet and private but our needs were taken care of.
The «attic» is about 4 miles outside of the adorable town of Langley with cute shops and a good selection of restaurants.
