Location: Vashon Island, Puget Sound, Washington State, USA (15 min ferry ride from Seattle or Tacoma, SEATAC Airport)

Accommodations:  Cottage, 2 Bedrooms + Loft, 1 Bath (Sleeps 4-6)

Be a guest in our newly renovated waterfront cottage on Puget Sound's artsy island, Vashon. Our cabin is mingled with other beach cabins in a very quiet area on Manzanita Beach, the most beautiful, sandy beach on Vashon Island.

Bring your wheeled cooler as our cottage REQUIRES A 100 YARD WALK DOWN A WINDING GRAVEL PATH. It is worth it, however, to experience this amazing setting, with a western exposure. The sun comes up a little later and lasts late into the evening, so prepare to take in a view of the city lights of Tacoma at night and the beautiful Northwest sunsets.

You can walk and explore the sandy beach all day and fish off the bulkhead at night. Wake up in the morning and enjoy your coffee on the deck as you watch the seagulls and listen to the waves.

There is plenty of room in the upper level, which is accessed by a standard stair well. It is carpeted, has a convertible couch (futon style) and a television. This loft space has a small covered deck to enjoy the waterfront views and sound of the waves lapping on the bulkhead at night.

The kitchen is new with all of the needed cookware and utensils, including an espresso machine, microwave, and side-by-side refrigerator with freezer and ice maker. Dishes must be washed by hand, however.

All of our guests have loved this cottage, we are sure you will also enjoy the tranquil and beautiful setting when you come to stay.

  • My family had an absolutely glorious and much- needed weekend away at this Vashon Island cottage. We were thrilled to find that the house was right on the water with a view south to Tacoma. Low tide was amazing, allowing hours of beach combing, treasure-filled walks, and general lazing about in the surprise March sun. Everything about the cottage is well done-the furnishings and all the details are truly lovely. The two decks--one on the main floor and one outside the loft--gave us extra room to relax and enjoy the unseasonably warm weather. My three year old especially liked the loft space feeling like it was a big play area set up just for him and it was a great place to watch a movie in the evening. The bedrooms are comfy and the day bed worked especially well for our son. We are definitely planning a return trip as soon as possible. It's a quick ferry ride from West Seattle and after an easy drive down the island you feel like you're a million miles from home. One note, though...there's a long, long, long trail from the road to the house so be prepared for a bit of a workout...that's worth every minute!!!

    We had SUCH a delightful time at your cabin! We'd love to keep in touch with you and "escape" again sometime when it's available... it was so restful and peaceful, and as we live in West Seattle, with ferry time it was two hours door to door, and only 30 minutes of driving! Wow! What a great, painless escape! The others caught 3+ hour naps each day (I'm not a napper), so I got lots of yummy relaxing time to write holiday cards and snuggle by the fire and just zone out admiring the water.. a rare treat being a mom of a 2 year old! Your home is cozy and sweet and just the perfect size for us! You did a really nice job on the remodel: congrats! (You must be so glad that's done!) Thanks again for renting to us! Oh, one wonderful treat was the full moon over the low tide at night! The moon filled the cabin with light, and it was fun to see the tide pulled so far back.. very cool! Smiles, Martha
