First time visiting Vashon, we came for the Strawberry festival and decided to stay over and spend a relaxing weekend. The property was perfect for the 2 of us and only about a mile from town.
This was such a cute little place for my spouse and I it’s very quiet, clean close to all the shopping. Recommend staying here for one or two people 100%
Small one-room studio on the backside of a farmhouse; private, easy access, adjacent parking, sparsely furnished, old but very clean, great daylight! Perfect for a short stay! 1 minute drive, or very long walk, to town.

The photos show the furniture/furnishings accurately - a studio, it is a single room and a bathroom; There is a comfy bed and a 6' sofa (see photos) and a footstool, and a full kitchen, but it isn't big enough for a lot of furniture. We aim to give our guests a 5 star stay and thus have good photos so guests are clear about the configuration and layout with the photos and description so it is what guests are expecting when they arrive. It is located 3/10 mile (5-10 min walk) from Vashon town. If you have any questions prior to booking, I am happy to answer them!
Accommodations were clean and comfortable and convenient. Saw Lisa several times during stay-always friendly and helpful and accommodating. I asked for a late checkout and she generously allowed it at the last minute. Great place to stay (with my small dog) for the week.
Thank you!

What a cute little spot! It had everything one would need to unwind and relax. My stay was related to work for the week, so I didn’t get to enjoy all that Vashon has to offer. This place is perfect for a couple’s getaway on the island, close to town and yet private enough to sit outside and watch the deer eat pears off of the trees. I can’t wait to come back!
It was colder inside than I expected and as I turned off the heat when I left, it was very cold when I returned after my workshop each day. that was my only issue.

Please feel free to leave the heat on! ( It is the middle of winter.) The heat is there for a reason🙂
Cute, cozy studio close to Vashon's downtown district. Great communication with the property owner. A lovely play to stay for a solo trip for quiet time or for a couple. Nice amenities at the studio, including kitchen supplies and coffee.
