Perfect Getaway
We absolutely loved staying at this Beach Cottage! Coffee on the deck in the morning was the most relaxing experience. We saw plenty of sea lions and the sunsets were spectacular! Allison had everything we needed and the cottage was extremely clean. We loved the location and loved that it was walking distance to the Burton Coffee Stand and the Mercantile! This is our third time renting the Beach Cottage and we can’t wait to get back! I highly recommend Vashon !

Perfect getaway
My wife and I were traveling to Vashon for a wedding and we decided to make a trip out of it. This has been by far one of the most beautiful places we have stayed! We are very big water people so this was the perfect little spot! The house was equipped with kyacks and paddleboards so we can explore the waters but also the tide was low enough for us to explore by foot! Allyson was extremely clear with all check in/check out instructions and she even left little notes around the property which was very helpful! The property was so clean and so perfectly decorated! The views were AMAZING even on a cloudy rainy day! We are already planning our next trip back! This is the perfect place to unwind, disconnect and relax! Thank you for making our stay everything we wanted!

House on the beach
This is a nice little house on the beach. Could hear the waves lapping out the window in the evenings. Everything was clean and comfortable. The he kitchen had everything we needed. Was able to walk out on the beach in the morning and collect sea shells. There was some road noise but nothing too bad.

We have stayed at this cabin before and absolutely love it! There were some upgrades this time that were nice additions. Especially the ac unit! :) But it's the water access that is the draw for us. We will definitely be back!

Super cool waterfront hideout.
We loved this adorable beach house! Great vibe, super view right smack on the water, ease of loading/unloading was a huge plus, everything imaginable was available to us in the cupboards. Hardly any road noise at all and we slept like babies. A fabulous stay!!!

Perfect solo getaway
This cute little house was perfect for a solo retreat, and would be great for couples too. What I really loved was the attention to detail at this house. The owner has really thought of everything you might need, there was even a basket of ear plugs on the nightstand. (Not necessary this trip, but handy if the hubby is with me!) The location is magical, when the tide comes in it feels like you’re on a boat. I got daily visits from a blue heron, two seals, and seagulls, and was even treated to a bald eagle flying by, and a deer eating seaweed in front of the house. I wasn’t a fan of how close the road is and the traffic noise, but felt that both the charm of the home and the reasonable price point offset that annoyance. I would definitely stay here again!

This is the perfect place to cuddle up with books and games or get out onto the water with a paddle board or kayak. The house is well equipped and we always enjoy our time here. We will visit again.

Beautiful spot right on the water
We visited family on Vashon Island for Thanksgiving and stayed in this lovely beach cottage over the holiday weekend. Convenient location, very comfortable and clean. We loved waking up to a view of the bay and seeing the lights reflecting on the water at night. We'd stay here again! Highly recommended.

Picture Perfect
This fabulous little cottage on the water was everything we hoped it would be. A beautiful location, an amazing outdoor space right on the water. The house has everything you could need on this little island getaway. The house is close to the road but when are snuggled in a chair looking out over the water with a cocktail it all fades away. The perfect getaway for us.
