Our Mother - Daughter Retreat

We had a wonderful time in this very quiet and comfortable house. It is surrounded by trees and very private. Inside was plenty of room for everyone, including a 2 year old. Every year we get together to talk and laugh and have fun. Our stay on Anderson Island was perfect. And it is beautiful there.

It was nice & quiet at this location. Driveway super hard to find, address on VRBO site is incorrect. Bathroom wasn’t as cleaned as a hotel but it was fine. Felt like one one had been to the house for awhile. Hosts very nice, informative and courteous.

The host accurately describes the home as very quiet as it is tucked away on a secondary street with many trees. Very few neighbors. We have stayed here four times before.

About the host

Hosted by Kent and Joline Emert

Host profile image
My wife and I live in the Seattle area and love living life on the water. Our island home is a big part of allowing us the life we desire, where we want to be.

Not only do we enjoy our home on the island, we have 5 adult children between us with an additional 5-7 grandkids, depending on what time of the upcoming year you ask.

We hope we have created a truly relaxing atmosphere where peace can be found.
