Beautiful Waterfront Views on Vashon Island

Experience the best view on Vashon Island, just steps from the North End ferry terminal .This updated, charming cabin is right at the edge of Puget Sound.

Located at the end of the north end ferry dock, the cabin is quiet and secluded, but easy to get to. Built in1923, and renovated in 2018 the house is has modern comfort with many original elements and fixtures. A full kitchen (minus freezer) allows you to create your own meals, or just make coffee in the morning before heading out to explore the island.

Enjoy your coffee on the deck with the seals as you watch the sunrise, watch for orcas from the deck, or have drinks on the deck as the moon rises over the Seattle skyline.

Our goal is to provide a calm and peaceful environment for our guests to enjoy the Puget Sound. Accessibility and stunning panoramic views make it the perfect island get-away. After spending a weekend on the water, you won't want to go home!

Perfect Girls Weekend

Stayed for 2 nights and will HAPPILY stay again. The host was wonderfully communicative, the house was in the most incredible location (literally right on the water - the pictures are accurate!) and was just what we were looking for. Very private, serene and comfortable. Views from every room too - what a bonus! Would definitely recommend and will be back!

Great spot to stay on Vashon!

Lovely setting, great place to watch the ferries, harbor seals, cormorants, ducks, seagulls, and more. Very clean and nicely decorated. All the basics are provided for your stay. We'll try to come back during the summer to enjoy the deck!

Priceless excursion into the past.

Almost perfect stay. Million dollar views, great location, and surprisingly spacious. Our only minor issues were that the Roku controller wasn’t available and the coffee situation wasn’t spelled out. It was also wasn’t clear what we should do about cleaning up at check out. We did trash, recycling and gathered wet linen. We were very happy with our stay . Thx Beth and Bob Hoffman

On the Water

Loved the location, near the ferries on the water. Clean and great views. Probably best in warmer weather as it was difficult to get it warm enough in the main room, kitchen and bath. Bedroom were very comfortable, warmth wise and the bed was very comfortable. Kitchen very adequately equipped and it was clean. Could use better chairs to relax in. Would definitely stay there again.

The view is breathtaking.

The house was perfect for a 3 day getaway. We loved leaving the french doors wide open to let the sea breeze come in. The kitchen is well equipped. Amazing stay for our anniversary.

Blue Herons and ferry boats beautiful!

Great location! Very quite, no traffic noise, clean clean clean and a view that can’t be beat! The only very small down point is not having a freezer for my ice cream habits nor a king bed other than that GREAT!

Idyllic Cabin On Vashon Island.

We came to Vashon Island to decompress after a hectic summer. The cabin was perfect for us. It is steps from the ferry and the Puget Sound. The kitchen is set up well, the mattress is wonderful, we enjoyed the games and the fireplace. Many thanks to our wonderful host.

Loved our stay in this beautiful beach cottage

We had a wonderful first visit to Vashon island and this gorgeous property was perfect! Everything was clean, tidy and comfortable. The location and view are beyond words. You're so close to the water that you feel like you're on a cruise ship without the rocking waves 😁 Pamela was wonderful and very responsive with information and answers to our questions. We hope to visit again one day.

No Fuss....no muss

Loved it-exactly what my girlfriend wanted. Great entertainment watching the ferrys roll in. We literally “sat on the dock by the bay watching the tide roll away...”. Seals harbor otters and binoculars what more could u ask for. Bed was super comfy and shower was hot. Thanks for the memories!

One of the better places to unwind

First time app user... the property is exactly what others have said about it. Sitting on the sofa at night with only the fireplace on and seeing the lights from across the water...very relaxing! We enjoyed the ferry watching. We drove all over the Rock and enjoyed the little town. Saturday market was going on and there was good fresh food there. Ate at the restaurants. There is plenty to do on the Rock. The house had everything you needed if you were staying in a hotel plus privacy! We felt free just relaxing on the deck. Bring good coffee! They have a grinder, press and a pour over. Very easy instructions to follow. We hope to be back. The property manager was great to work with.

Serenity on the Sound

We absolutely loved this place and Vashon Island! This cute cabin on the waterfront was perfect. I love the simple yet stylish decor, and the outdoor deck was the best feature. Woke up and had coffee on the deck and watched the boats and the ferry come and go. Or sipping on a glass of wine at night and enjoying the coastal lights were both memories we will always treasure!! What a unique and perfect place to get away. Vashon Island is a gem, the restaurants the people and the scenery were all impressive! Definitely recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A wonderful base for exploring Vashon

This was a wonderful base from which our family enjoyed three nights on Vashon. The full kitchen and washer/dryer are a wonderful convenience, and the views are outstanding. The kitchen is very well-stocked, and we had everything we needed. I was nervous about noise with the proximity to the ferry, but it was very quiet, and it felt secluded. Having the cafe next door was wonderful in the morning. One note: we had two adults and two children, and this is really only comfortable for three. Our kids took turns sleeping on the floor because the pull out sofa is a full-size futon—not really big enough for our 8 and 12 year olds to share comfortably. The gorgeous study was a wonderful surprise—a perfect writing nook. We just made up a bed with some of the bedding for one of the kids in there. Lovely location! Highly recommended.

Awesome stay

Beautiful location. Right on the wager & next to the ferry. So convenience. Property was clean and had all we needed. Although no freeZer, it was so convenient to grab things for each meal it want missed. They even helped when I accidentally booked one night short.

Such a wonderful spot, sitting on the deck with a cup of coffee watching the ferries come and go. Seals, heron and kingfishers to enjoy. This is my second stay and I will surely come back. Would love to be here during a winter storm.

Unbeatable view and location

Great cabin located right next to the ferry right on the water! This place has been totally remodeled and super clean. This one is all about the view with an expansive living area and study that looks directly across the water to Seattle. Check in was simple and it had everything that we needed for our stay. Its on the bus line that will take you into town for a solid selection of restaurants if you don't want the one right next door! I would not only recommend it, we'll be back!

Ideal Getaway

This is a remarkable cabin. It's so easy to reach from Seattle and Tacoma but stepping out onto the deck transported me to a distant vacation getaway. I spent a beautiful week there with my three kids, ages 14 to 22 and they each loved it and didn't want to leave. It was so relaxing being by the water and waking up to the sun rising over the Sound each morning. The kitchen is well equipped and the living spaces are open and comfortable. A truly special spot on the water!
