My family has been visiting this island for over a decade now, we have stayed at this cabin for a few years of that time. It is a cute, clean cabin with just the right amount of what you need. Anything more and you wouldn't enjoy everything the island has to offer during your stay. We never want to leave! It hard to come back to city surroundings.
This house is a good size for a couple or small family (2 kids). It’s a cozy house in the Harstine Point community, and has all the essentials. This is a quite beach community with excellent beaches and trails. You will likely be spending a good deal of time exploring the point or just looking at the gorgeous views from the Spit. It’s quite a round the house, there is some construction currently but we did not find it bothersome. We have been to this community before and it consistently is neat, tidy and well maintained. This is a nice clean house for a reasonable nightly rate.
It was just what we needed! A true getaway in this little house surrounded by trees was just it. The water is really close. Lots of walking opportunities. Kitchen was great and beds were comfy. There was a power outage while we were there - would recommend packing some flashlights in the winter months. We loved how simple the house was. We will definitely come back and likely bring our kids next time.
Cabin was clean, cozy and welcoming with plenty of amenities in and outside the cabin (bikes need a tune-up!). Perfect place for my wife and me to relax and disconnect from tv and internet. The cabin is tucked in the thick woods. While there are plenty of neighbors, they are barely visible through all the towering trees and are super quiet. The residents/visitors are always waving and friendly. So much to see and do within a short walk from the cabin. Hiking on the trails, the spit, the beach or just the streets provided breathtaking views of the canal, woods, Mt. Ranier and wildlife including seals, herons, eagles, crabs, jelly fish, sand dollars and the friendliest, most docile deer ever encountered! A sign at a trailhead indicated a recent cougar siting, but thankfully we did not encounter one! We were informed some orcas were spotted by other residents/visitors a couple of days before our departure, but as hard as we tried with the remaining time we were there, we did not see any...but they are there! Clubhouse was clean and with plenty of activities/games/books from which to choose. We enjoyed a couple of table tennis games inside the Clubhouse and playing CAT on the basketball court outside it and next door to one of the 2 tennis courts in the community. We also enjoyed lounging by the pool during the spectacular weather experienced during our stay. Kim was courteous, friendly, informative and responsive through VRBO messaging as well as via text messaging. She was especially helpful and patient when we had a very minor glitch getting through the gate upon arrival. She was also very patient and willing to help us with a lost item we thought might still be in the cabin after our departure (but wasn't!). Customer service before, during and after was terrific. Wish we would have met her in person! A long summary but only a few words wouldn't have described it well enough! Thanks for the wonderful accommodations! Highly recommend this location to anyone seeking a relaxing and enjoyable respite!
Was an awesome place to get aways from our phones and to enjoy nature. Everything was as promised and it was a great experience. Definitely would stay here again.
The property was very well stocked, comfortable, clean. The perfect place to get away for a couple days. The sealife on the beach was incredible and the views were gorgeous on the beach. Highly recommend!
We had a great time at this property. It was exactly what we needed to reconnect without distractions. My kids and I took lots of walks — we loved all of the beach access points in the neighborhood. We had our puppy with us and appreciated the dog friendly details in the home. We’ll definitely be back, thank you!
I think the title covers most of it, but this is a fantastic rental, run by a great, communicative host. There's very little to want for, other than an internet connection (if you have a cell-booster, you can run a hotspot, or re-route a hotspot, which is what we did, just to have basics, like texts/calls), it's got pretty much ANYTHING you could need/want, for a getaway. We were staying close to a family member's place, in the same community, and we actually had people over here, for dinner, because the layout was great, for 9 of us (busy, but cozy, with 9 eating together). The owners were GREAT about communication, and were super-flexible, in pretty much every way; we'd rent from them again, in a heartbeat!
Quiet location....Salish oysters close by. Suggest please - have a dish soap handy for people like us that prefer eating indoors. Thank you.
It work for what I needed.
