Discover the Hidden Coastal Gems of Oak Harbor

If you’re looking for a peaceful waterfront lifestyle without sacrificing convenience, the Dugualla Bay and Polnell Shores communities offer a rare blend of serenity, natural beauty, and close-knit charm. Nestled just minutes from downtown Oak Harbor and Naval Air Station Whidbey Island, these neighborhoods feel like a private retreat—yet you’re never far from town.

Coastal Living Surrounded by Nature

Dugualla Bay greets you with sweeping water views, calm tides, and abundant wildlife. Eagles soar overhead while herons wade along the shoreline. The bay’s protected waters create a peaceful setting for kayaking, paddleboarding, and beachcombing right from your backyard. Just around the point, Polnell Shores offers a similar quiet escape, where residents enjoy tranquil forested streets that open to panoramic views of the Saratoga Passage and Camano Island.

A Strong Sense of Community

Both neighborhoods are known for their welcoming spirit. Neighbors wave as they walk dogs along the shoreline and gather for seasonal block parties. These are places where friendships flourish and kids can safely explore the outdoors—a true sense of belonging that’s hard to find elsewhere.

Space, Privacy, and Stunning Homes

Homes here range from charming coastal cottages to custom-built estates with expansive decks, walls of windows, and private beach access. Large lots and mature landscaping add privacy, while many homes are thoughtfully designed to capture the breathtaking sunsets over the water. It’s a lifestyle that blends comfort, beauty, and a daily dose of awe.

Convenient Yet Secluded

Though these neighborhoods feel tucked away, you’re only about 10 minutes from Oak Harbor’s shopping, restaurants, and schools. Commuters appreciate the easy access to NAS Whidbey Island, while weekend adventurers love being close to scenic hikes, marinas, and ferry connections to Port Townsend and the mainland.
