This beautiful, recently renovated second story studio apartment is fully furnished with everything you need for a relaxing stay: a large outdoor deck with propane barbecue, a propane fireplace, full kitchen, bathroom with shower, and lots of windows overlooking the field and its visiting deer. It is walking/biking distance to Island Center Forest, the town of Vashon, O-Space, Vashon Center for the Arts, and is 10 minutes from several beaches. Your dog is welcome with an additional deep cleaning fee. (We don't host cats due to allergies.) there is a queen bed and a small 3 cushion sofa (see photos) that works for a child.

Vashon Island is accessed by a 20 minute ferry ride from the Fauntleroy ferry terminal in West Seattle (Not the ferry from downtown Seattle! ), Tacoma and Southworth. Schedule and fare information is available at Washington State Ferries on line. Weekday mornings and evenings there is King County Water Taxi service directly to downtown Seattle. This cute studio is on the main Metro Transit 118/119 bus line. It is a 7 mile or so bike ride from the ferry terminal, or you can put your bikes on the Metro bus. Vashon Shuttle Service will pick people up and deliver them to Sea-Tac Airport. The ferry terminal is about 20 minutes from Sea-Tac airport. It is 10 minutes drive to the apartment from the Vashon ferry dock. Uber and Lyft and taxis DO NOT OPERATE on the island. Vashon Rides or Vashon Shuttle Service are sometimes available by reservation.
