Perfect Getaway

We absolutely loved staying at this Beach Cottage! Coffee on the deck in the morning was the most relaxing experience. We saw plenty of sea lions and the sunsets were spectacular! Allison had everything we needed and the cottage was extremely clean. We loved the location and loved that it was walking distance to the Burton Coffee Stand and the Mercantile! This is our third time renting the Beach Cottage and we can’t wait to get back! I highly recommend Vashon !

Wonderful getaway. Beautiful location and immaculately maintained.

My only minor critique is the mattress for the pullout is past its time. Other than that, this place was perfect and exactly what we needed.

The perfect getaway!

The Burton Waterfront beach house was just perfect - beautifully accommodated, with an expansive outdoor area to enjoy the water. We cooked out on the bbq, made smores on the fire pit, and watched seals and a sea otter frolic in the water right in front of us. We can't wait to return! Highly recommended.

Fantastic Clean Cozy Gettaway

We loved our stay at this clean and cozy cabin, especially being on the water. We had coffee on the deck overlooking an amazing sunrise every morning. The place was stocked well for any family cooking. We enjoyed being close to beaches & hikes and the easy drive into town. With little kids, the only minor drawback was being so close to a sometimes-busy road meant keeping a close eye on them. The owner was very accessible & informative. Would definitely go back again.

Fantastic Beach Cabin

Once again, our family enjoyed every minute at Allyson's Burton Beach House. Staying here has become an annual tradition that our kids count down the days to. They love collecting sand dollars and paddling around on the "tippy, but very fun" little kayak. We enjoy grilling and sharing meals together at the picnic table, and then gathering around the fire pit for evening s'mores. The countdown until next summer has already begun!

House on the beach

This is a nice little house on the beach. Could hear the waves lapping out the window in the evenings. Everything was clean and comfortable. The he kitchen had everything we needed. Was able to walk out on the beach in the morning and collect sea shells. There was some road noise but nothing too bad.

Our best vacation ever!

Our family had an absolutely wonderful time at Allyson's beach house. The location can't be beat - you'll have your own private shelly beach at low tide and be practically in the water at high tide. The set-up was perfect for our family of four: neat bunks for the kids and a luxurious queen bed for the grown-ups. The kitchen is exceptionally well stocked and you can eat indoors looking out over the water or outside at the picnic table. We loved exploring the tidal creatures on the beach, collecting driftwood for evening s'mores fires, BBQing on the propane grill, and falling asleep listening to the water lap around us. We can't wait to come back!

Perfect getaway

My wife and I were traveling to Vashon for a wedding and we decided to make a trip out of it. This has been by far one of the most beautiful places we have stayed! We are very big water people so this was the perfect little spot! The house was equipped with kyacks and paddleboards so we can explore the waters but also the tide was low enough for us to explore by foot! Allyson was extremely clear with all check in/check out instructions and she even left little notes around the property which was very helpful! The property was so clean and so perfectly decorated! The views were AMAZING even on a cloudy rainy day! We are already planning our next trip back! This is the perfect place to unwind, disconnect and relax! Thank you for making our stay everything we wanted!

Quality Family Time

My nine year old daughter and I had such a fabulous time at the beach house. Normally, when we vacation we rent a house and we're out and about all day and just use the house for sleeping. However, when we got to this house we revised our plan and spent most of our time exploring the beach and relaxing. We loved finding sand dollars and shells every morning and then painting them once they dried. We had the pleasure of staying at the house for Fourth of July and what a spectacular night it was! We hardly knew where to look to see all the fireworks. We sat on the patio with a fire and some marshmallows and took it all in. I would especially like to thank the owner for being so helpful and friendly during our stay. I sincerely hope we can get back to the house again for another visit!
Response from VrboOwner on 30 Mar 2020
I really enjoyed meeting you both and having your daughter show me all your beautiful painted shells!! They add to the magic, memories, and beauty at the beach house. I am glad you had such a great time and I would love to have you back in the future.

Perfect solo getaway

This cute little house was perfect for a solo retreat, and would be great for couples too. What I really loved was the attention to detail at this house. The owner has really thought of everything you might need, there was even a basket of ear plugs on the nightstand. (Not necessary this trip, but handy if the hubby is with me!) The location is magical, when the tide comes in it feels like you’re on a boat. I got daily visits from a blue heron, two seals, and seagulls, and was even treated to a bald eagle flying by, and a deer eating seaweed in front of the house. I wasn’t a fan of how close the road is and the traffic noise, but felt that both the charm of the home and the reasonable price point offset that annoyance. I would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Host profile image
I am a long time islander and my family and I have been enjoying the beach house for over 65 years! My Partner and I truly enjoy sharing our happy place as a vacation rental with our quests. We love hearing the stories of the memories families make on the beach and adventures they have had while exploring Vashon.

What makes this property unique

You can get out and enjoy all that Vashon has to offer or you can sit on the porch and watch the water gently roll by. I can get lost in the beauty that surrounds us here in this tiny paradise.
