Blue Sky Vashon er et perfekt sted at nyde Vashon Island. Det er 10 minutter fra den nordlige færgehavn til og fra Seattle. Det er cirka fem minutter fra den maleriske og sjove centrum af Vashon, selve hjemmet til gode restauranter, gavebutikker og biografen samt centrum af lørdagens landmændsmarked. Det er et vidunderligt sted at starte en cykeltur på Westside Highway eller tage færgen til Tacoma og vove to timer til Mount Rainier National Park mod øst eller to timer til den Olymic rækkevidde eller penisula National Park mod vest for fantastiske vandreture.
Bondehuset blev bygget i 1924, og de originale grangulve og bølget glasvinduer er stadig intakte. Den nederste etage indeholder et stort lys opholdsområde med morgenmadskrog og spisekøkken med alle nye apparater og den centrale ø. Ekstraudstyr inkluderer ny blender og en morgenmadskurv med et udvalg af barer, korn, kaffe og te. Gå igennem og spis din morgenmad på den store gamle gammeldags veranda med udsigt øst og dejlig morgensol. På den østlige side af underetagen er den åbne stue og spisestue med masser af komfortable siddepladser til fire til seks personer. Der er et ekstra soveværelse på denne etage med en sofa / dobbeltseng og det halve bad.
Ovenpå kan du vælge mellem tre dejlige soveværelser i størrelse, hver med dronning soveværelser. Det forreste rum er det mindste, men det har uden tvivl den bedste udsigt ud foran huset. Hvert soveværelse har et stort, cedertræ-foret skab med masser af bøjler. Hver seng er ny med IKEA-sengetøj og nye dynetæpper, der er fluffy og behagelig. Nogle af vores gennemgangskommentarer inkluderer "sovende på skyer" og "meget behageligt". Det fulde bad er på denne etage med en gammeldags klo-fodbadekar og et moderne brusebad sammen med masser af håndklæder og en kurv med forsyninger, hvis du har glemt noget. Udsigten er fantastisk fra badeværelsesvinduet med vest mod vandet og den olympiske bjergkæde. På klare dage kan du se mange af bjergene. Solnedgange er smukke.
Slap af! Denne ejendom er så fredelig. De vigtigste lyde er de mange fugle og familien med skaldede ørne, der bor i træerne langs bløffen. Vi lejer også denne ejendom til små grupper og åndelige retreats, som er et vidnesbyrd om det stille og afslappende i huset og den omkringliggende have. Du kan gå hele ejendommen eller bare sidde og nyde solnedgangen.

Idyllic location close to Puget Sound with charming farmhouse in immaculate condition for its age. Property is a virtual orchard with many different types of fruit trees and expansive acreage to meander through. We had three people and each got their own room. Was unseasonably hot at night but fans and portable air conditioners sufficed. Had pleasant time enjoying the fresh air on both porches. Bathroom upstairs was large and functional with shower and tub. The house is notable for the number and size of windows, allowing views of all four sides of the property. Tilda was helpful beyond any owner you have ever dealt with and provided extensive information about the property and the island We would recommend this rental without hesitation.

Blue Sky Farm is simply gorgeous and is a fabulous place to stay. The property is beautiful, the house is stellar, and the amenities are wonderful. At Blue Sky Farm you can retreat from the world and relax. If you have the Merlin Bird ID app on your phone, you can spend hours just chilling on the porch and ID’ing the birds that abound on the property.Vashon Island is lovely as well, with great beaches and forest trails and a lot of wildlife. The art scene is vibrant, there are great local restaurants, and there are well stocked stores where you can get all set for cooking back at the house.Tilda the host is a fantastic communicator and is extremely helpful in making sure your stay goes smoothly.My family stayed at Blue Sky Farm to celebrate my Mom’s 80th birthday. We had a lovely time and I got extra family credit for finding such a perfect and memorable site to get together.Thank you Blue Sky Farm and thank you Tilda!

Blue Sky Farm is a beautiful property right on a bluff on Vashon Island. The house was immaculate! We had everything we needed for an awesome vacation. Tilda was so helpful and supportive when we had a medical emergency. I would recommend this property to anyone who wants peace and quiet, yet a ferry ride away from Tacoma and Seattle.

Wedding weekend success!
This beautiful home could not be located in a more dreamy location. We were able to explore the property, enjoy the wildlife, pick flowers and fruit around the orchards. The home is stocked with all the essentials and then some. Tilda was an amazing hostess and provided all the information anyone could ever think of. The best part was having breakfast on the front porch in the rocking chairs...just enjoying all the beautiful nature sounds.

Vashon family retreat
I couldn’t have been more pleased with my stay at the Blue Sky farm. It is a wonderful 10 acre retreat that provides the tranquility I was looking for. The house is a beautiful 1920’s retreat with all the modern amenities needed without taking away from the charm of the craftsman architecture. The property also hosts an array of outdoor charm from scenic views to fruit trees and all the fresh air you can take in. Our host Tilda was truly pleasurable and most accommodating. I really appreciate her and the willingness to share her bit of heaven on earth with others.Thank you Tilda!

Thank you for your stay and review Peggy. Last fall thru this Spring, we are in the process of changing to a new hot tub. I’m sorry it wasn’t operating yet. The tub company is scheduled to do some electrical work and then the tub will be heating and bubbling. It is brand new and full of water for a cold plunge! As I mention in our VRBO material, in our original farmhouse there are stairs at both entries and the stairs inside have a low overhead. I am working this summer to add curtains to the other bedroom windows. Being on our own 10 acres, no other buildings have a view into our windows, so privacy hasn’t been an issue, but is it nice to keep morning light down when sleeping in. Thank you again for your comments. We always strive for a five-star stay for all our guests.

Vashon Vibe
We were SO happy with this listing. The farm is all it is advertised to be. The farm was roomy, we had lots of space for the 4 of us to spread out. Bedrooms were roomy, lots of rooms and outbuildings to hang out in. The fruit was ah-mazing! We rode the bikes, hung out in the fields, picked the fruits, made pies, cooked each dinner in the well equipped kitchen and ate with placemats and cloth napkins each night. We explored the island (head to Fern Cove and look for the eagles, osprey and seals ~ head to Lisabuela Beach for sunsets and to skip rocks ~ the Farmer's Mark et on Saturday was a great source of fresh vegetables and local goods). Sunsets from the back porch were a great way to wrap up the day. I would definitely stay here again. We looked forward to getting back to the Island vibe after our off-island adventures.

Idyllic farm, house and garden -- beautiful and comfortable house!
Our group of family and friends met in this house over a weekend centered around a play written by longtime Vashon resident Kat Eggleston from her father's stories. The play was about family, history and memory.
That seems fitting for this cozy, sunny and airy house, with its very comfortable beds, sofas, and chairs and spacious "modern farmhouse" feel. One person walking in said in delight "this feels like my grandmother's house" -- and it does, the 1920 architecture has been carefully restored and maintained. Yet the furnishings are modern and comfortable, each bedroom upstairs has its own thermostat, and the windows are well insulated so the house can be kept warm!
We used all four bedrooms, the dining room and living room -- but we spent most of our time in the kitchen and adjoining "snug" space, sitting and drinking tea and coffee, talking and watching the sun set over the water.
The landscape enchants -- from the apple trees in front to the gardens surrounding the house to the view of Colvos Passage over the meadow behind the house. We almost immediately picked apples and made apple crunch -- so that smell of apples and cinnamon is now part of our house memories!
Tilda is a gracious hostess, and supplies the house well with everything her guests might need -- from a set of "take one if you forgot something" supplies in the bathroom to tea and coffee in the kitchen.
Altogether a lovely and comfortable place!

Thanks for your lovey review, Liz. It reads like it is stepping out of a beloved story! I am glad you, family and friends all had a good stay. It is so nice when the house and property connects with guests in a deep way and feels like home. Picking and cooking with apples from all of the trees around the house is one of my favorite things to do in the Fall. I'm also glad the weekend of shows went well at the Vashon Center for the Arts.

Paradise!
Blue Sky Farm is a little slice of heaven. The property is peaceful and bucolic - acres of land dotted with fruit trees and host to a huge bird population. Bird-watching each morning was the routine. The occasional deer would stroll across the pasture. Plums were just ripening during our stay and we definitely took advantage of the easy breakfast pickings! Tilda was in close touch with us before arrival, and easy to reach during... although we did not need a thing that was not already provided in this comfortable and well-appointed home. We certainly felt more like honored guests than mere renters. Thank you for sharing your lovely home. Hope we can make it back sometime!

Fantastic Getaway!
We were very please with our stay to Blue Sky Farm. We have never been to the Pacific northwest and had no expectations, but our trip did not disappoint! The property is very loved and cared for. Arrangements with the owners went great and Tilda was very helpful. I really appreciate her going the extra mile to make the home and our stay comfortable.
The house is very homey and clean, and recently updated with lots of old home charm. The porch was a great place to enjoy mornings with coffee/reading and stayed completely dry in rain while we were there. The property has many fruit trees the owners encourage you to pick from, such a treat! I loved coming back from a run and eating an apple right from the tree. The views from all windows are amazing. There are several old barns and beautiful landscaping though out the property. We enjoyed sitting in the hot tub in the evenings and watching the sunset with views of the water, land, and mountains beyond. The same view from the bedroom window looked like it had been painted in our pictures!
The island of Vashon has great views everywhere you look with plenty of places to sit and enjoy, hike/bike, and eat/shop. We were glad we had a rental car to get around the island and explore in the afternoons. Everything is close and easy to get to. We did not see whales this trip from any of the watching points, but did see Harbor Seals. The island has lots of deer and bird life to enjoy.
Tilda went above and beyond normal VRBO places by having hand, dish, and laundry soap, a toiletry stash, paper products, and a few kitchen items. There were plenty of dishes and cooking utensils to allow us to eat in for many of our meals. All bedding seemed new and fresh. We slept so well there!
We would highly recommend staying at the Blue Sky Farm for a getaway as a couple or for a trip with a few friends.

Om værten
Vært: Tilda Brown Swanson
We are based in and split our time between Seattle and Iowa. We have loved Vashon for at least 20 years and have owned Blue Sky Farm for over 18! We live in the house for at least a month a year and hope to show guests a sense for Vashon life during their stay.
Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted
The westside of Vashon Island is the most mild and beautiful part of the island. The fruit grows best there and having both eastern and western light is a special treat. The farm is unusually peaceful. The light is particularly beautiful during the "golden hours" from 4 or 5 pm to 9 pm in the summer. Our gardens are in a beautiful cottage (read "messy and a bit random") style and will delight visitors, especially if you are a plant and flower lover. If you like fruit, we have over 20 apple trees, eight plum trees, a peach, four to five pear, Asian pear, and six different cherry trees. My favorites are the tart pie cherry trees in late June for jam, pies and scones! If you love birds, this is a bird's paradise with a variety of habitats consistent with the grasses, woods and flowers of the Pacific Northwest. My favorite is to hike west to the bluff and then explore the NW corner to the second bluff where our resident Barred Owl and hawks live.

Not many of the original homesteading acres of land stand on Vashon as they were in 1910 when a person or family could stake out a strip of 10 acres on the westside, build a dwelling on the land and after five years there, pay a fee for the certificate to own the land. We are the fourth owners of the 10 acres at our address. The first owners, the Reiners grew fruit and had cows on our farm from around 1910 through the 1940's. As the fourth owners, we work to be good stewards of the land, caring for the fruit trees, which include some of the originals. The barn on the property are each historic in different ways. The main barn was built in 1930. We have just replaced its cedar shake roof, restoring it in its original style and build. The floor is Douglas Fir. It held hay in its upper floors and equipment on its right-hand side. The barn below it was a garage in the 1920's and 1930's and then a chicken and turkey barn. Its unique northside is all windows. The third barn is a two-horse stable with a unique roofing style of the early 1900's for airflow. The property's inner two acres contain an arboretum of interesting and unique trees as well as garden beds of greenery and color. The property has a rich history and is in one of the most beautiful locations on the island. We live in our house on Vashon about a month a year. We rent our farm so that we can make it available for no or low cost for spiritual and pastoral retreats. It has special qualities which make for a relaxing and peaceful time for all who stay here. During the pandemic, we booked reservations with at least one day between guests so that we could deeply clean and disinfect between guests to give our guests peace of mind and make our house a haven for each stay. We have continued that approach.
