We’re entering the summer of the staycation here in Washington. But with local destinations like Whidbey Island available to us, it won’t be so bad sticking close to home this year. When you need a change of scenery, Whidbey is ready to welcome you. It also happens to be home to the dreamiest little garden oasis you never knew existed but have to see. Allow us to introduce you to The Quintessa.

The Quintessa is located in Clinton, set back on a quiet road (but not far from local amenities).
Airbnb
Guests can rent the cottage, the house, or the entire estate.
The property itself is pretty massive -- the house has nine bedrooms, four bathrooms, two kitchens, and amazing formal dining rooms.
Airbnb
While the house can accommodate 28 guests, you're welcome to rent just the first or second floor for your smaller group. They have separate entrances and their own amenities.
The Quintessa is often booked for weddings, family reunions, and small retreats.

And you won't find a more beautiful place to wed than the onsite gardens.
But since large events may not be an option this summer, we highly recommend sneaking away with just your significant other or your family and renting the cottage.

The cottage sits in a separate corner, close to the main house but far enough away to offer plenty of privacy.
