Your Forest Hideaway on Beautiful Harstine Island

Cross the bridge to Harstine Island and step into a serene forest retreat. Tucked beneath towering Alaska Cedars and Big Leaf Maples, this charming one-bedroom guest cabin offers comfort, quiet, and the natural beauty of a peaceful 10-acre homestead. Wander meandering trails, watch for wildlife, or simply breathe in the lush green stillness of the forest.

Guests are welcome to enjoy the hot tub, located just behind the owners’ home in a sweet, private garden nook—quiet, sheltered, and perfect for a peaceful soak beneath the trees. We provide soft robes, comfy flip-flops, and extra towels to make the experience effortless and relaxing.

The cozy cabin sleeps 2+ with a comfortable queen bed, a kids’ sleeping loft, and a full-size futon in the living room. Inside, you’ll find a complete kitchenette, a covered porch with a café table, a private patio with a swing for two, and a gas BBQ—everything you need for a restful and enjoyable stay.

The beach is just a short walk away, ideal for watching herons and seals, exploring tide pools, or simply sitting quietly as the tides shift.

While the cabin is its own private space, the property owners’ home is nearby. We’re close enough to offer help or local tips when needed, yet far enough to ensure your privacy, peace, and uninterrupted relaxation.

Harstine Island is full of treasures—two beautiful state parks, quiet beaches, woodland trails, and endless opportunities to explore the South Puget Sound or venture to the majestic Olympic Peninsula. Whether you’re seeking rest, romance, or outdoor adventure, this woodland cabin offers a welcoming and unforgettable escape.
Make yourself comfortable in this cabin, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private furnished patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Netflix and a DVD player are provided for your entertainment, while complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a hot tub or take in the view from a garden.
Guests will find features like wireless internet access and onsite parking.

Everything about the stay was amazing. Directions to the cabin were perfect, they left some really yummy huckleberry bread for us, the instructions for the hot tub were perfect. Ruth and Scott gave us plenty of privacy, but responded to our messages and texts promptly! The cabin itself was super cozy… we watched movies (even got the DVD player working!), had romantic meals by the fireplace, played some games, went out to explore the island and nearby yarn store, and walked around the property looking at the fruiting mushrooms. If I could stay forever I would. Thanks again you two!!

The cabin was cute, and we really appreciated being able to check in an hour early. We came up to enjoy the hot tub and beach for a birthday trip, and we asked beforehand about playing music a little late and using the hot tub. I will say the hot tub was a bit confusing to find. The host provided maps but the maps didn’t indicate a starting point or where the cabin was located on the map, nor did it mention the hot tub. The beach wasn’t walking distance, and we couldn’t find the hot tub at first, so we ended up just spending our trip hanging out in the backyard. Directions in the guide indicated the hot tub was in the hosts backyard of their main house. We didn’t know this before booking and didn’t really feel comfortable hot tubing within view of their family home. The house was a bit warm but the host provided plenty of fans. Outdoor outlets & lights were on a timer so we asked the host to turn them on a bit before sunset. They were prompt and very accommodating. Our visit felt private enough, and we enjoyed our stay overall.

This was definitely exactly what we needed. Quiet little place off the beaten path, easy enough to find if you know where you're going. Property was clean and accessible for outloading and unloading our personal belongings and once we were inside, it was heaven. All of the comforts from home! Fun things to do on the property and the hot tub was amazing after a long day of walking and exploring. There are so many wonderful things to say about this Hideaway, and we will definitely be back!

The Perfect Weekend Getaway

My husband and I had a rare 3day off at the same time. All we wanted was quiet, nature and a hot tub, and we enjoyed just that. The cabin is adorably rustic, feels secluded and comes with most necessities. Comfy bed, fire pit, multiple areas to sit and relax and the hot tub (with robes!) didn't disappoint. The properties trails, the welcoming owners and the "local animals" were a huge bonus.

Great time with our dogs!

We really enjoyed our weekend at the cabin. Our dogs did too. The trails on the property were perfect for morning walks. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, always responded quickly and were helpful during our stay. They have a nearby community beach where you can clam which was so convenient. Close enough to town to go there for groceries and meals.
