About this property

Centrally located, spacious 4 bdrm, on quiet Ct

Quiet 2 bedroom1 bath cottage on peaceful Anderson Island. Front patio looking out across Lake Josephine. The house is adjacent and across the street from Ray Park, giving you immediate access to the park's beach, swimming area and swim float, kid's play area and sand volleyball court. We have a outdoor 5 person sauna and outdoor heated shower.
Each bedroom has a queen bed and a pull out single mattress pad. There is a dishwasher and laundry room. Enjoy quiet nights with a glass of wine on the front patio looking out at the lake, and bring your paddleboard or canoe to enjoy a peaceful morning paddling across the lake casting for trout and bass. (Josephine is a non-motorized lake, making it ideal for swimming, fishing and paddleboarding.) We have two paddleboards for guests to use, but guests are required to provide their own personal floatation devices.
There are multiple hikes around the island leading through beautiful forests to secluded Puget Sound beaches. For a meal out, drive, walk or paddle to the Riviera Lakeshore Restaurant sitting lakeside on the west shore of Lake Josephine.

Great location

We enjoyed being right across the street from the park. It's a peaceful location and a well eqipped home. Slept well. We have a house on the island but had too many family members coming so we stayed at this vrbo for a good night sleep.

Wonderfully appointed and great location!

This sweet little house is the perfect place in regards to “everything you need for a great stay on the island.” Super clean. And perfectly located across from a family park. Bonus was the use of their paddle boards! The only hitch was their keyless entry, which worked flawlessly when we arrived, and then stopped working on day two. User error? Not sure. But, luckily, the island seems super safe!

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
We grew up in Washington and have lived in Tacoma for the last 20 years. We love exploring the forests, mountains, and waters of the Puget Sound with our two young children.

Why they chose this property

We have been visiting and exploring Anderson Island for years, spending many summer days swimming and fishing at Ray Park on Lake Josephine. A few years ago when the house across the street from the park went up for sale, we made the purchase. Since then we have been making memories paddleboarding to the Lakeshore restaurant for sweetcream pancakes, swimming to the swimdock in the midday sun, and sitting on the porch at dusk listening to the silence of the island.

What makes this property unique

The moment you step onto the ferry in Steilacoom you have the relaxed feeling of being on vacation. The lack of traffic and noise on the island add to this experience. Then, once you arrive at the cottage you get to relax. Time slows down. You wake up and make a pot of pour-over coffee. For a beach day at the lake, you put on your flip flops and walk across the street. To take the kids to a park, you walk across the street. There is nothing that compares to the relaxation of spending time at the cottage.
