The Maw House' is a charming home located on the scenic Puget Sound. Surrounded by wooded landscapes with immediate access to the water, this tranquil retreat features three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The rustic exterior blends seamlessly with the natural surroundings of old growth trees, while the interior offers a spacious living area with panoramic forest views. The fully equipped kitchen and tasteful dining area provide the perfect setting for enjoying meals. Start your day with a cup of freshly brewed coffee on the front porch, where you can savor the peacefulness of the morning with views of Squaxin Island - the historic, pine-laden reservation for the Squaxin Island tribe - or even experience a visit from the local pod of orcas, seals, or otters, all of which are routinely spotted nearby. The well-appointed bedrooms ensure a restful sleep, and the luxurious bathrooms offer a spa-like ambiance. A short walk through the enchanting forest leads to the serene waters of Pickering Passage, ideal for fishing, boating and outdoor activities. The property also boasts a spacious deck for relaxation and an expansive lawn for outdoor enjoyment. Be sure to listen for the Barred Owls calling from Squaxin Island! Conveniently located near Shelton, guests can explore the town and nearby natural wonders. 'The Maw House' is an ideal retreat for those seeking both tranquility and adventure.

spectacular views
Cabin is in a wooded area and the view from the porch is amazing. Just a walk across the yard to the stairs that lead to the shore. House is clean and well maintained. Kitchen is great for cooking meals and the table is a nice size to enjoy a family meal. Close to parks for hiking. Our questions to the host company did get answered but it took a while. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Family fun
We had a wonderful time visiting and enjoying the beautiful views of the bay. We were pleasantly surprised at the property was waterfront. We hosted a child birthday and everyone had enough space and we truly enjoyed the outside spaces. Truly fantastic family time.
