About this property

Beachfront Treehouse in the Heart of Puget Sound

West-facing, beachfront cabin that is secluded yet conveniently located within 10 minutes of downtown Vashon Island and less than three miles from the ferry terminal to Seattle and the Olympic Peninsula. Whether you are looking for a short-term escape or a summer relocation for family island living, this property offers you a uniquely amazing experience. Summer rentals are week-long with discounted pricing for month-long rentals or summer-long rentals. The property offers amazing views from all rooms with decks on each level. Every space reminds you that you are in the trees, on the water, and completely removed from urban distractions (which are nearby if you need them).

It was really nice. But I think the composting toilet fan blows up towards the bedroom, because it smelled everytime you entered the room.

This is such a great space and location. We loved sitting on both the main and upper floor decks amongst the forest of trees. And, nothing like a walk down the trail to access the beach. We enjoyed the ourselves!

I loved the treehouse! Wonderfully relaxing and quiet. Most days I sat in the yard and read until the tide came in a bit then threw a ball for the pup. Great quiet bay for paddle boarding. Jean-David responded to my questions within just a few minutes. I enjoyed my stay and hope to come back soon.

What a relaxing stay! We loved the quiet and privacy of their treehouse! Everything we needed was there to make our meals There was even wonderful whole bean coffee and a grinder! There are books, puzzles, and a trivia game we enjoyed. It was a wonderful week spent with family! My adult son did choose to sleep on the couch rather than use the loft since the ceiling was very low.

Peaceful treehouse

Very relaxing location. Kitchen and rooms were well stocked with supplies and extra linens. Our dog is older and needed to be carried down steps to the main house but no problem because she’s small. We would stay here again!

We live across the road from this property and are happy to help! We are a family with two young kids and chose Vashon Island for the seclusion, quality of life, and the amazing community, including schools. We are Seattle-Vashon footferry commuters and can attest to the fact that it is the best commute in the area, if not in the US. This is a perfect place to call home for the weekend, week, or longer! Follow @burmatreehouse on Instagram for a peak into life on Vashon Island.

*As the homeowner, I pledge to rent my short-term rental property in compliance with all local rules and regulations, and that as a member in this community I will uphold the standards expected of a good neighbor.
