Sandy Beach Front Cottage with great Sunsets

Rare Puget Sound Cottage directly on the water with a large sandy beach! Spectacular sunsets and great marine wildlife... Orca, Humpback, and Pilot whales. Seals, Salmon, Crabs, Clams, Sand Dollars, Eagles and Seagulls. One of a kind oasis in the Pacific NorthWest.

Great spot for a romantic peaceful getaway. Snuggle up on the deck with a glass of wine and a good book while enjoying spectacular views. Or go for a beach walk on our private secluded sandy beach.

Our kids grew up on weekends here, so it is also a great spot for a family vacation. We have lots of beach toys and nothing like planting a chair in the sand while your kids run around. We can comfortably hold two families of four (8 people total) if you have the kids stay in the loft. We have had 4 adults and 6 kids for long weekends, it only gets tight in bad weather and everyone is inside.

* Note that the map location says Harstine Island, but if you look closely at the location, we are NOT on Harstine or any other island.

Gorgeous deck and beach
We loved this space inside and out with our young kids (4,1,1). What a treat to have a fun beach, tide pools and great toys. Campfire was quite the treat for adults in the evening!

Sunset Retreat
What a wonderful getaway home! Everything we needed for a long weekend was at our disposal. The kitchen was well-appointed, including all of the basics (spices, seasonings, evoo, etc)...this has seldom been our experience at previous rentals. The bathroom was equally well-stocked with full-size products and linens. As lovely as the home was, it was secondary to the amazing beach, view and glorious sunsets. I could have been content to just live on the deck! Our host was as wonderful as his property. Upon our return home, my daughter discovered she had left her phone. After trading messages with David, he was not only able to find it under the sofa where it had accidentally fallen, but got it up to his home, which is only about 5 miles from where she lives. Thank you, David (and family) for sharing your charming beach cottage with us!

The Beach
Beautiful setting on the water low bank with a sandy beach. We had a light show the first night. Watching lightening on the water was a new experience. Great walks on the beach and kids spend their day in the sand and water. Everyone loved it.

Great getaway!
Beautiful, well maintained home right on the ocean. For once, the claim of a well stocked kitchen lived up to expectations. Host was very helpful and we certainly enjoyed our stay. Already talking about a return visit. Thanks!!! Mike and Melinda

Beautiful Family Getaway
We had a wonderful experience at this beach house! My kids had fun playing on the beach for hours and we had a great time relaxing on the patio enjoying the sunsets! Loved exploring the beach, collected a ton of shells and felt like we had the beach to ourself!

Perfect, quiet escape on Puget Sound
This house was PERFECT for our family looking for a place to enjoy the outdoor beauty of the Puget Sound. A quiet neighborhood of only 14 houses w/ friendly neighbors and no nearby road noises. The house and rooms were nice—but the beautiful XL deck and views are the main attraction. We had all our meals on the deck, saw plenty of wildlife (including seals and lots of fishing birds) and enjoyed seemingly unreal sunsets every night. We took day trips to Mt. Rainier & Olympic National Park and Seattle is just a 75 min. drive so we got to experience a lot of what Washington & the PNW have to offer. Our girls (11 & 13) slept in the bunk beds the first night but after discovering the loft above the garage wanted to hang out and sleep there all the time. The water was very cold, but we swam twice and enjoyed exploring and walking the beach right in front of the house. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great getaway right on the water
The house was wonderful for our family getaway - everyone loved being right on the beach! We saw sea lions, eagles, sand dollars, geese, deer, and cranes, all while hanging out on the property. The kitchen was well stocked for all of our needs and we had plenty of sleeping areas for our party of 7. The house was clean and clear instructions were left to help answer all of our questions.
