Ebey's Landing Ferry House
Evans-Hatch & Associates. 2001. Ebey's Landing Ferry House. Historic Structure Report. National Park Service. Pacific West Regional Office
The Ferry House, built about 1860 on the west side of central Whidbey Island, Washington, remains one of the oldest extant structures on the island. Situated on the former Isaac Ebey Donation Land Claim and used variously as a mail station, tavern, inn, and residence, the Ferry House was the site of important activities that shaped the history of Whidbey Island and the state of Washington. The Ferry House, as well as its setting and outbuildings, is associated with the earliest generation of Euro-American settlers on Whidbey Island, most notably with Isaac Ebey's family. The Ferry House, owned by only two families in 140 years, has undergone remarkably few changes.
