Point Robinson Lighthouse - Keeper's Quarters A

Vashon Island's lighthouse station offers weekend and week-long stays in the two renovated Keeper's Quarters. The two residences share the beach with the lighthouse and other features of the historic light station. Both residences are available for rent throughout the year and offer groups of up to six adults a wonderful way to enjoy the beach, the Puget Sound, and Vashon-Maury Island.

Keepers Quarters A at Point Robinson Light Station is a modest three-bedroom, two-bath, two-story bungalow perched near the lighthouse on the shore of the East Passage of Puget Sound. It offers a wondrous porch looking out over the water and, on a clear day, you'll be able to see Mt. Rainier and sometimes, pods of orcas, too!

Vashon with Friends

From beginning to end, this adventure was amazing. My hubby and I have stayed at the lighthouse before and enjoyed it, but sharing with friends was the best. We were all in awe of the beautiful house and the view. Being there during storm only added to the adventure. We even saw a pod of whales. Amazing.

Make your adult dreams come true

We got to be lighthouse keepers for the weekend and the experience did not disappoint. Highly recommend! The caretaker was kind, the house was historic and comfortable, and access to the property after dark was a special treat (the trolls as INCREDIBLE). The only downside was the crowds, but we were grateful for fence giving us a little breathing room.

Spectacular!

What a location, you just can’t beat that anywhere! We looked straight at Mount Rainier all weekend. It didn’t hurt that the weather was fantastic, but we would have been happy in the house anyway. We spent the afternoons just relaxing there. The front porch, the picnic table on the side, the living room – all the spaces were wonderful and comfortable. Dining room and kitchen are nice. Good beds too! Thank you for this wonderful place!

Gorgeous location, gorgeous old house

This place is perfect and we could easily have stayed the entire month. The only reason this is not a five-star review is because of the bed in the upstairs front room. It is LONG overdue for a new mattress. It sinks in them middle as though it is 20 years old.. This house is a perfect getaway with so much to offer but for the price you pay, all the bedrooms should come with a reasonable mattress. Otherwise, this place is PERFECT.

Paradise, so close to home yet so far away.

We recently enjoy the weekend at the keepers quarters on Maury Island just off the southern tip of Vashon Island in Puget Sound. This old house, just steps from the lapping waters and overlooking glacier-capped Mount Rainier just an arm's reach away, gave everything we needed for a relaxing getaway without going too far from home. A 20 minute ferry ride, and 20 minute drive down the island led us to this exclusive park, closed to visitors in the evenings, felt like our own private estate on the tip of paradise. The house reminded me of my childhood days, with character and construction no longer found longer easily. You gave us everything we needed, including personal comfort and a well stocked kitchen. There was nothing missing in the cozy, unpretentious house, and the addition of personal items, nice dinnerware and the fabulous front porch to sit together and gaze across at across the sparkling water was as good as could be. Seals frolicked in the water, Eagles flew by. Orca whales had passed out front earlier in the day when we arrived, but, missing them didn't bother us because the scene was so beautiful in any event. It was the perfect place to enjoy fun days and evenings with friends, making paella, playing board games, and walking the driftwood beach. It was a magnificent stay in a very comfortable place. We could not have been happier, and can't wait to make this short journey again as soon as possible.

The perfect getaway!

This is our second stay at the house, and it was perfect. Cheryl was great to work with when coordinating the details, and the on-site property manager quickly resolved an after-hours request. The house gives a beautiful view of the beach and water, where we enjoyed watching the world go by. We also saw a few river otters playing nearby - what a treat! The kitchen is filled with just about everything you could need, the beds were comfortable and plenty of blankets provided. We will definitely be back! Thanks so much to the staff that manages the property - we truly appreciate it.

Great experience - will be back for sure!

We enjoyed the mixture of old style and modern conveniences. The house was clean and comfortable. The view was marvelous- we had two gorgeous days to enjoy a front porch view of the mountain. Sunset and sunrise were amazing. The caretaker next door is very nice and helpful. We enjoyed watching otters and seals in the water as we sipped our coffee on the porch. Wonderful getaway with the family.

Wonderful family vacation

The location is A-MAZ-ING! You are right on the beach with a lovely porch with rocking chairs to enjoy the view. Elderly mother could sit in the shade of the front porch while adult children beach combed and kayaked right out front. We did bring a few extra beach chairs (which we used outside and also in the living room to add estra seating on movie nights) and of course our own kayaks. Kitchen was well equipped and spacious enough to accommodate the many helpers during meal prep. Appliances are all in good working order and full size making it easy to whip up meals and store food for 8 people. Fans were available for those days/nights that were hot and loved the new windows with screens that opened easily to let in the evening breeze. You will not be disappointed if you stay here!

Girls Weekend

The home is spacious. It was great that each of us could have our own room and a kitchen to make tea and food. We loved sitting in the living room and saw bald eagles, otters and a seal. It was also a treat to have Oscar the Bird King troll in walking distance. The quiet made for good sleeping and it was wonderful to spend time with friends.

Absolute treasure!

We stayed at Pt.Robinson because we needed more room for family in preparation for my mother’s memorial service. I had always wanted to see inside the lighthouse keepers’ cottages, having visited the beach many times over the years. It is nothing short of magical! Beautiful restoration, comfortable, well-equipped and breathtaking scenery!
