Fairytale Cottage with a Lovely Meadow Setting, Patio & WiFi - Walk to KVI Beach
Enchanted Cottage
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Seemingly pulled from the pages of a story book, this sweet, Scandinavian-inspired cottage provides a truly enchanted getaway on Vashon Island. This is a place to sip your coffee on the patio, watch deer come and go through the meadow, and take daily walks to beautiful KVI Beach a few blocks away.
This quiet, two-story cottage enjoys an enviable location in Ellisport on the island's east side, with downtown Vashon's excellent restaurants and unique shops mere minutes away by car and KVI Beach - a favorite among locals - a few minutes' walk through the neighborhood.
Inside, you'll find a freshly painted, light-filled living space with generous windows that frame the sunny pasture and the neighboring evergreens. In this thoughtfully designed space, there's a full kitchen to your left as you enter and a main living area with comfortable seating, a flatscreen TV, and a selection of board games to break out at night. The front patio, furnished with a pair of Adirondack chairs, is a wonderful spot to linger with a mug of coffee and listen to the sounds of the island all around you.
The primary bedroom is just off the living room, offering a telescope for wildlife-watchers and a desk workspace in case you're keeping in touch with work during your stay. A spiral staircase leads up to the second bedroom - a charming little attic room where you can sleep under the rafters.
Things to Know Full kitchen (without a dishwasher) The second bedroom is accessed via a spiral staircase from the primary bedroom

The property was amazing!!! We loved the quaint feel and easy access to the beach. The kitchen was well stocked and the laundry was so convenient. The kids loved the loft bedroom.
Great location and perfect amount of space for us while we visited family who live on island. Only thing of note would be that many windows lacked covering which made it hard for us east coasters to sleep. We solved for this with eye masks.

Great tiny house
Family of 5, fun property, easy walk to the beach. The tree swing was hit, and the fire pit was great. Tastefully decorated, clean and easily fit two kiddos upstairs. The pull out couch is a high quality foam mattress and our 14yo thought it was great. Perfect for a Vashon vacation.
I only stayed here for one night while attending a wedding on the island, and I wish I had been there longer! The bed situation was actually better than I thought from the listing - it would be no problem to fit 3 couples in that place.

Such a wonderful retreat!
Enchanted cottage was everything that I expected, and more. Everything that you need for a pleasant vacation is there. The cottage was spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and in such a peaceful setting. I hope to come back to Vashon Island, and stay here again.
Stayed here the weekend we got married and it definitely added to the atmosphere coming back every evening to a cute place

Disliked: Communication
From the time we checked in, the refrigerator did not work. I reported the issue immediately to Vacasa to the number on the support page, acting as a rep for VRBO. The first person did not ever get back to me. The second person I called was the Vacasa local manager indicated that evening that she would reimburse for the ice we purchased to try to keep the cold items we had just bought before checking in from spoiling and for the hassel of no refrigerator.

Best place to stay
First off, this place is cute as a button. Really cool triangular windows and overall interesting design not seen elsewhere. A brief rain in the morning was actually really nice on the metal roof. Well stocked and cozy, had everything needed. The local deer visited every day. I would definitely recommend, or stay again myself!
My family and I had a great stay and would love to come back! It was quiet, calm and cozy. This home has everything you need. We planned a weekend to stay in and this location was the perfect place to do so. Beautiful property and a wonderful tree with swing out back. Highchair available which was so convenient, also a great selection of toys and kids books. We happily recommend and hope to come back!
