Vashon island is a peaceful community with small town charm located on one of the Pacific Northwest’s Puget Sound Islands.

Enjoy the incredible beach, bird watching, views & Mt Rainier. The sunrises and moonrises are amazing.

We are located 5 miles, 10-12 minutes, from town where there is a large selection of great shopping, restaurants, bakeries & entertainment.

There are many restaurants to enjoy from Earthen Bistro, featuring local farm to table modern American meals, to a family friendly atmosphere at The Hardware Store Restaurant or Island Queen. The Vashon Island Coffee Roasterie is a local hub, but don't take my word for it...explore all that this small friendly town has to offer.

It's a short drive to Point Rubinson Lighthouse. While you're there be sure to visit our very own Thomas Dambo Troll! One of five trolls made from recycles rubbish and natural elements created in the PNW known as "Northwest Trolls: Way Of The Bird King". You cannot miss it!
There are 4 parking spaces in the driveway directly in front of the garage.

Guests have access to the entire 2 bedroom, 2 bath cottage, except for the locked storage closets in the hallway and laundry room, the large uncovered porch, and the covered patio. Guests do not have access to the garage.

There are two (2) adult kayaks, two (2) children's kayaks, and one (1) paddle board available for guest use located by the covered patio and gate to the beach.

We are located on the water! Guests have direct access to the private community beach during low tide. Please be mindful of the quaint and quiet beach community. During high tide the water comes up to the sea wall which feels like the home is on the water (great selfie photos!)

Guests may bring their boat and lauch from the public boat launch nearby or arrive by boat. There are two (2) buoys directly in front of our home. You will need a small inflatable to get to and from the boat if anchored at the furtherest buoy which remain afloat. The closest buoy will be grounded during low tide.
