MODERN AND COZY CABIN ON THE BEACH
2 beds 1 bath Sleeps 6 Comfortable modern family home on 8+ acres with large kitchen, cozy living room with tv, piano, KLOS guitar and ukulele. Game room with ping pong and foosball and a pickleball court. Hot tub on deck, swings of all sorts and 400+ feet of waterfront to explore.

There is a herb garden and mint for fresh mint tea, and you can use vegetables from the garden for cooking. Fall Hazelnuts are also available to gather. It's a race with the squirrels.
Come enjoy the experience of a lifetime in a warm, cozy beachfront property situated on Historic Anderson Island. This unique retreat embodies the spirit of the Pacific Northwest beginning with a beautiful ferry ride. Once on the island, you’ll drive 5-minutes through wooded country roads to a private 8+ acre property with 400+ feet of waterfront, tucked away on Amsterdam Bay. The home itself has been beautifully updated and was designed for a cozy gathering of family or friends. The large deck and hot tub provide unmatched views of the bay while the row boat and paddle boards will give the adventurous an up close and personal wildlife experience. For those looking to cozy up with a good book or show, there is a beautiful living area with large windows and comfortable leather couches. For the cook inside you, enjoy the modern appliances indoors for a savory breakfast, get out the deck grill for a hearty lunch, or build a fire on the beach for a truly authentic outdoor experience.
If the property itself isn’t enough to keep you entertained, Anderson Island is an absolute treasure worth exploring with so many hidden gems scattered throughout.
Visit the quaint island general store and cafe on your way to the property to pick up necessary ingredients and any cravings to make the stay even more enjoyable.
Don’t miss the island swimming hole on Florence Lake for warm days! Make a day out of it by bringing a picnic for the afternoon or go for a quick dip to cool off. Bring along the paddle board or canoe to lengthen the stay and explore the water. The lake has roped off areas for small children, a dock in the middle for the big kids and adults to slide down and jump off. Finish off with a game of sand volleyball. Tan on the sandy beach while the kids swim to their heart’s content and build sandcastles by the lake.
Anderson Island also offers the Riviera Community Club for a unique round of golf. The golf course offers a well-maintained 9-hole golf course along with the Riviera Lakeshore restaurant for a delicious meal afterward. A fun way to take a break and bond together as friends and family.
This island property offers an unmatched, one-of-a-kind Pacific Northwest experience. Get away from the rat race of life and enjoy island living; bring your family and friends to this piece of paradise and leave with priceless memories worth talking about for a lifetime.

Prefect. The photos in the listing are great but the property is even more impressive in person. There were lots of activities to do onsite. The waterfront view is amazing.
Our family really enjoyed the quiet beauty of this amazing water-front location. The accommodations were fantastic and clean, and the amenities (hot tub, pickle ball court, games, ping pong, canoe, row boat, rope swing) provided for lots of fun and great memories.
The hosts are wonderful to communicate with as well!
Highly recommend!
This was perfect for a quick 2 night new years visit. We enjoyed the game room, pickleball court and hot tub! Not much to do on the island but that's what we wanted, somewhere quiet to enjoy with the kids! Would love to come back in the summer.
We had so much fun out on the water raft in the bay and swimming in the lake that’s a 5 min drive away! The kitchen and BBQ are great-we ate out on the deck spotting wildlife each night! Thank you for sharing your wonderful place with us once again!
My family enjoyed a cozy, snowy winter stay! Such s gorgeous spot with plenty of fun activities for the whole family and gorgeous views! The water is so clear and calm so we will look forward to a warmer month stay too. The owner is so kind and communicative. A south puget sound gem!
This family home is situated on a small orchard and had activities to keep our little family busy for over a week! A pickleball court, kayaks, a canoe, ping pong, fusbol, a hot tub, endless grass, a garden and an orchard! One of the cleanest homes we've ever stayed in and had an amazing kitchen. We had campfires at the waters edge nearly every night! We can't wait to return for another stay!
The property is beautiful and will not disappoint, we really enjoyed our stay. From dipping our toes in the water looking for crabs, throwing rocks with our toddler, kayaking, making campfires at night and watching the sunset, this place has it all for a relaxing getaway and is perfect for families. They have a wonderful play structure for young kids and a game room for older kids and parents. You and your family will have a wonderful time here.
This place looked incredible from the photos, but they fall short to how gorgeous this place is. The property is huge and pretty private, protected by a GIANT tree that perfectly shades the deck and house without blocking the view of the water! We had a little doe, some geese and goslings visit the yard almost every day and a couple seals and heron that frequented the water. The paddle boards and kayaks were perfect and it was super easy to cruise around the bay. It was hard for us to leave, was incredibly peaceful and fun! The ferry is pretty easy as well (though you only need tickets to get to the island, not to leave it) and was honestly kinda a nice pace, we saw dolphins and orcas during our ferry trips!
We just returned from our second trip at Merlene's house, and it was just as good as our first experience. We love the calm and serene setting on Amsterdam Bay! There are so many activities to do on the property, that you really don't even need to leave. Some of our favorite activities include: looking for crabs on the shore, finding wildlife in the Puget Sound, using the rope swing up the hill, and picking blackberries. It is a great place if you have children, or if you just want some peace and quiet. We are already planning our trip again for next summer.
We so enjoyed our stay at the beach house. My toddler exhausted himself everyday playing on the swings, collecting seashells, and splashing pebbles into the bay. His grandparents enjoyed the sunsets, cozy blankets on the deck, and beautiful landscaping. The island also has well groomed walking paths and hiking trails perfect for families.
We’re already checking our calendars for the next time we can all get together at the beach house.
VRBO should have a property listing attribute to the effect of "grandparents spoil their families at this property"! Plenty of activities for the youngsters - new pickleball court, ping pong, foosball, kayaks, canoe... Some items are beginning to show their age (rowboat, beach chairs), but owners continue to invest in this property (new canoe, pickleball). We look forward to our next visit!
This has been our go to place on the island for the last 3 years. We have made many memories and look forward to many more at this property. Merlene is an amazing hosts and always has everything you could need on the property. She is always easily reached if need be or if we have any questions. If you want to stay at a place where you can just relax and enjoy nature and peace and tranquillity, this is the place! Wake up so a beautiful view overseeing the water and breathing fresh air! We look forward to many more stays at “our happy place”.
We loved this property! Can’t get a better view and one if the most well appointed kitchens ever!! Loved cooking fresh meals each day from the garden and using the cool flat top cool grill inside. The covered hot tub was so nice after a long day of kayaking.
Merlene is wonderful and very attentive. We loved the welcome basket of goodies. Such a sweet touch. We can’t wait to come back next summer!!

Thanks Cristie! So glad you were able to make use of the garden. I was nervous the weather wasn’t going to cooperate with you but you did have some beautiful days.
What a wonderful lake house retreat! Owner met us at property upon check in. So many fantastic amenities for the whole family. We enjoyed the canoe and kayak, pickleball court, ping pong table etc. If I had any complaints it would be the tubes inside the BBQ out back were rusted and cracked open so flame wasn't well controlled. House was very musty due to age. Overall we had a very nice trip. Thank you.

Glad you enjoyed your stay. We have replaced the BBQ. Should have been done before. Not sure why the musty? Never have heard that before. ;-) Hope you come back when visiting your son again.
About the host
Hosted by Veronica Straub
We have had vacation property on Amsterdam bay since 1995. It is the perfect get-a-way from the busy life. Our children have enjoyed beach combing, fishing, boating, tree swing, and helping with the projects we seem to always have available for them. The stars are brighter and the sunsets amazing. It's a little paradise.
What makes this property unique
Fishing with license. Finding baby crabs at low tide. Hazelnuts, mulberries, blackberries and huckleberries in the late summer and fall. Herb garden. Vegetable garden Pickle ball court.
