We are gone 6/13-7/5 and would love folks to enjoy our entire house. Our house is down a small, country road close to town and very private. We are high bank waterfront with a gorgeous water view with soaring eagles, gulls, freighters and sailboats. The beach is accessible via a trail at the end of our road. Early summer is ideal as there are huge low tides and our beach makes for great beach walking.
We have 2 bedrooms, 2 baths plus a cozy built in double bed in a downstairs office. There are front & back porches & a large lawn with gardens. Our book filled house is casual and comfortable and is ideal for a family or two couples to experience Vashon Island.
We love the light in the summer as our house faces east. Drinking coffee on the front porch and enjoying the view is magical. Our house isn’t perfect ; the counters need redoing and the cupboards could use a repaint but it is clean, cozy and filled with light and comfort. We love our spot.
The space is expandable and can easily sleep more than 5. We have a double futon on the back porch where we often sleep in the summer. The upstairs large sitting room could accommodate a blowup bed.

About the host
Hosted by Celia Congdon
We have lived and raised our family in this house for the past 35 years. We spend a lot of times outdoors whether walking to our beach or working in the garden. We do our best to be environmentally conscious. For instance our shower curtains are made of hemp rather than plastic. We love to travel and welcome fellow travelers to enjoy our place.
Why they chose this property
If you like the expanse of a water view and lots of beach walking our place is perfect.
What makes this property unique
Our house is so convenient in the proximity to the town of Vashon. It is easy to get exercise by walking up to town to Saturday market or to do some easy grocery shopping. During the summer there’s a lot of music on the island and we love checking it out. If it’s not to our taste we’re home in seven minutes.
