Orcas, Seals? Definitely! One of the best key features, the cabin has amazing views of Puget Sound's Colvos Passage, Vashon island, sailboats, barges, and marine wildlife.

Within the cabin's grounds, we have a private new kid's play zone. The 'Crab Shack' is a rustic playhouse with a lower-level lounge and an upper loft area. Bring the kids' sleeping bags and watch the stars through the skylight! There's also an amazing Gorilla Playset with swings, monkey bars, a clubhouse, climbing wall, and a 5 ft wavy slide. Hours of outdoor entertainment for the little ones!

From the cabin's front door, you can walk, fish, clam, crab, and kayak on the beach. The community has a private super soft sandy beach for your use within 5 minutes walk along the waterfront or streetside. Also, you can enjoy swinging on the hammock, sipping a cup of coffee on the deck covered lounge area, soaking in the panoramic sea views, and listening to the crashing waves.

There's always catching sights of the local wildlife... depending on the season, you can see seals, sea otters, whales, eagles...etc. And of course, kids can collect shells, rocks from the private beach. At night, the whole family can roast s'mores in the fire pit while watching the stars.

About the host

Host profile image
Welcome to Gone Fishin' Cabin, our home away from home in the Northwest! My husband and I both have busy careers. And like most working parents, we are challenged by balancing family needs with work schedules. The cabin is our little Puget Sound waterfront get away from the chaos of normal life. Here, we can enjoy a stroll on the beach with the sea breeze in our hair, take in the amazing oceanfront view while sipping our morning coffee, and listen to the crashing waves from the deck lounge. And the best part, the kids can play on the beach, go clamming, learn to fish or kayak in front of the cabin. Happy memories are made of these...!

Why they chose this property

Gone Fishin' Cabin is in the amazing Puget Sound and within an hour from Seattle. We're super family friendly. It's easy to travel to the cabin, either by Ferry or by road. It's in a small rural village, but also close to Gig Harbor, a seaside port with a pedestrian waterfront, quaint shops, restaurants, and all amenities.

What makes this property unique

As a family, we love just hanging out by the water and enjoying a relaxing time BBQing, fishing, crabbing, clamming, kayaking, snuggling with a book, or playing board games. When we feel really ambitious, then we go for a long walk on the beach. Taking it easy is what we enjoy best at the cabin.
