Beautiful Cottage
We had a wonderful stay. It is a very beautiful special spot. I enjoyed reading up on the history of Vashon-Maury Islands, shopping in town and watching the Super Bowl with a great water view. Great Wi-Fi. Very comfortable and cozy inside on cold days. We would highly recommend.

Really Beautiful
The house and location were beautiful. The house had everything we needed. We live in an urban area so to wake up in the morning and see the water and wildlife was just wonderful. The house and boats were very easy to access. Getting to Vashon Island was a lot less complicated than I expected. 100% recommend this rental!

Beautiful waterfront cottage
Loved our stay. We took beach walks when the tide was out, and felt like we were on a boat when the tide was in. South facing deck, great for sunbathing. Clean and comfortable interior. Well equiped kitchen. Electric fireplace made cool nights cozy. Only downside were the many steps up to the parking area. Hard for older people.

Quiet and cozy
Great property tucked down by the water! The fenced in deck and small yard was perfect for our small children and dogs! The kayak was a great perk and the full kitchen was very useful! Just be aware to bring any high chair or travel crib needed, as they are listed for the property but not available onsite.

Nice View
This place was very well equipped and clean. Me and my family had a great time here. Great deck to enjoy the views of the sunrise and sunset. Kayaks provided made for some good fun during the day and kids really enjoyed making smores in the bonfire at night. Our host Erin communicated with us early the day of check in which was great! Would strongly recommend this place for anyone looking for a calm and relaxing getaway to a place that is clean and all you need is a few groceries and snacks!

Wow! Cottage by the Sound
This is a little slice of heaven. Breathtaking views of the sound and trees. This little house on the water was built in 1930 and has the sweet charm of a cottage. The kitchen is fully updated and stocked full of all you need to prepare meals plus. Very charming and well decorated, comfy beds and furniture. We can't wait to go back.

Great way to spend the week!
This was our 2nd time staying and it was just as great as last time. The weather held up enough to take a couple of the kayaks out and since the harbor is so well protected it’s perfect and easy to paddle about. The house is always well stocked and has got to be one of the quietest lots in the area. We will be back again!

About the host

Hosted by Erin Lemons

Host profile image
My family and I have be been vacationing to this beautiful area since 1964. I've had the great opportunity to share the experience with my children and now my grandchildren. All are addicted to the beach life as I am. I hope everyone who visits walks away with their own wonderful memories and experiences.

Why they chose this property

My aunt and uncle bought the cabin as a summer get away where I spent many wonderful summers and with the beach as my playground. Later it was sold to my parents then my husband and I had the opportunity to purchase it. It has been wonderful for me to share the unique experiences with my guests that the beach house has to offer.

What makes this property unique

Hop in the kayak or row boat and site-see from the water. In the evening dine on the deck and enjoy the water all around you. You might even enjoy fishing from the deck. In the day the tide is out so you can go out to the waters edge and find all kinds of beach life. It is a always changing landscape with plenty to enjoy.
