About this property

Magnolia Beachfront Home

Happy to share our family's Vashon getaway with our guests.

Our place is a cozy 1,100 sf beach cottage on 50 feet of low bank waterfront/bulkhead. High tide puts water 4 feet from your windows and low tide allows for fun Puget Sound beach exploration. Our kids still love heading down to collect crabs and sand dollars.

We have two smaller bedrooms located upstairs. One with a Queen Bed the other a Full.
Main living space downstairs has what I'd call a "Sleeping Closet" that partitions off with an accordion door for privacy.

Kitchen is a smaller but fully furnished with nice cookware and has a full size dishwasher.

Key things to know about our spot.

- Access to the house features a lot of stairs so not a good fit for those who are mobility impaired.
- We only have TWO parking spots. It's important for guests to know this and not block driveways for our beach neighbors.
- Magnolia Beach is a uniquely Vashon community with a mix of year round residents and a big influx of seasonal 2nd homeowners. It's a fun tight knit community and during the summer, it is a regular occurrence for neighbors to take a social stroll along the bulkheads and seawalls. We've had a few guests who were surprised by this quirk so we want our listing to better describe the experience so those to who are seeking privacy above everything else can look elsewhere. On similar vein, we have a set of stainless steel stairs that give easy access to the beach. Those stairs are shared and occasionally used by our immediate neighbors. By contrast the winter is considerably less active and the vibe very serene.

The property was nice, the view of the beach was fantastic, and the description was accurate. Climbing up and down the 76 steps to our car was especially difficult as I had heart surgery only a couple of months prior. We opted to end our vacation after three days as I wasn't feeling well even though we had paid for the entire week.

We had a last-minute change of plans for our anniversary trip and absolutely lucked out with this booking. What a magical home and location. We spent some time exploring Vashon, but there was really no need to leave the house. The setting alone made the stay memorable. The views are spectacular, and with the water just a few feet from the windows at high tide, you feel completely connected to the Sound. We watched orcas, seals, and countless birds from the house, and spent one evening kayaking right off the property. There was hardly a moment when we didn't look out the windows and find ourselves a little in awe.The house itself was charming, clean, and very comfortable, with comfortable beds and a well-stocked kitchen that had everything we needed. We also appreciated how peaceful and relaxed everything felt. Whether we were sitting by the windows watching the water, walking along the beach at low tide, or heading out for a paddle, it was an incredibly special place to spend a few days.We couldn't have asked for a better anniversary getaway and only wished we'd had more time there. We'd happily return.

Lovely cabin on the water. We enjoyed watching the water and the tides. We even got a treat of seeing a group of sea otters resting and then taking back off hours later. Comfortable accommodations and such a great setup. We enjoyed our time on Vashon!
