Beach Access & Views: Secluded Anderson Island Gem
There's no better way to experience summer in the Pacific Northwest than in the heart of Puget Sound at 'The Beachcomber' on Anderson Island. For an idea of what your stay might look like, picture immersing yourself in the sounds of nature, calming blue waters lapping at the shore of your private beach, sunsets across the Olympic Mountains from the hot tub, and evenings spent by the fire. With a quiet and serene location surrounded by giant madronas and conifer trees, you'll never want to leave!

We needed an escape and this place was exactly that. It was beautiful, clean, quiet, and clearly thoughtfully designed. We spent so much time down at the beach with the kids and even brought the kayaks out. We will be coming back
Our second time staying here and loved it! It’s so quiet and secluded with a gorgeous view. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen well stocked, and the property is adorable. Took one star off of cleanliness due to the hot tub being a little murky, but it didn’t detract from our overall stay.
The house was great and was everything we were expecting from online. The host was so accommodating and helpful. Communication was great and clear!! Definitely would go back again and would recommend to anyone wanting to find a place that is relaxing, clean, on the beach, safe and comfortable
This house was perfect for a family getaway. The bunk bed room was a big hit with my kids, as well as the hot tub. There is a huge yard to run around and play, with access down to the beach with crabs, sand dollars, star fish, and more! The house was clean, cozy, well stocked and they even had a basket with treats to welcome us. There are trails all over the island with their own beach access that we loved exploring. Great, quiet getaway for our family.

Fabulous Get a Way!
We had a wonderful time, watched Killer Whales from a great vantage point at the front of the property and walked on the beach without seeing another soul. The house was very comfortable with large windows and lots of light. We enjoyed an evening fire and a glass of wine. The house was well tended and the grounds a perfect NW rain forest treat! We have already made arrangements to stay several more times this summer!
Just a really lovely, secluded place in the woods with private beach access (down an impressively long flight of stairs). Host communication was top notch. View and coziness were wonderful. We ended up with just 4 in our party, which was great. Might have been close quarters with more than that. Kitchen cooking tools could use a little better stocking, organization, labeling to take to next level, But overall, as described and grand.
Loved this place! The great escape. We saw deer, distant seals from the backyard view. Gorgeous plants, flowers. Never heard or saw neighbors. (Wifi strong for work meetings.) Plenty of amenities, great welcome treats, clean and gorgeous windows!
Kayaks were excellent. Lots of lovely hiking trails on island and a swimming lake. (General store was good, reasonably priced.) Ferry was fun, simple. Great communication from host.
Enjoyed the fire pit. Seriously, nothing more needed! Thank you hosts Brian & Diane for sharing your little piece if Heaven! :)
Secluded setting, beautiful well-maintained house, clean and spacious. Hope to go back soon. Recommend bringing extra firewood and water in case of power outage.
Great view of the sound and loved the beach access. Sunsets were phenominal. Ferry schedule was a little tough to navigate, but it was around July 4th. The place allowed the great breeze to keep the cabin cool.

Comfy stay - responsive host
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was comfortable. And the host was available to help us with any questions. The views of Puget Sound were great - we could see Orcas in the distance. The provided kayaks were nice to have. Also enjoyed the fire pit. A very beautiful spot.
We couldn’t imagine a more beautiful property for our stay on Anderson island. The house is clean and has all of the needed amenities. The hot tub was a nice addition to sleepy mornings and restful evenings. We would book again in a heartbeat.

Secluded getaway
Great location and even better home. Kayaks, jacuzzi, fireplaces, grill, sunsets galore. Great all around and recommend to anyone.
We booked our stay here for my son’s 16th birthday and we had an incredible and relaxing weekend. This cabin has all the amenities plus more. The surf shack was a fun hang out spot for the teens at night. We will never forget our memories made here relaxing by the fire, kayaking and just enjoying nature. Thank you so much!

Mom’s Trip
A great weekend away for a group of mom friend’s. We had a couple issues that the owners took care of almost immediately. The beds were very comfortable. We would totally recommend staying here! Just know there are LOTS of stairs (over 100) to get to the beach. But worth it!
