About this property

Rare Puget Sound Cottage directly on the water with a large sandy beach! Spectacular sunsets and great marine wildlife... Orca, Humpback, and Pilot whales. Seals, Salmon, Crabs, Clams, Sand Dollars, Eagles and Seagulls. One of a kind oasis in the Pacific NorthWest.

Great spot for a romantic peaceful getaway. Snuggle up on the deck with a glass of wine and a good book while enjoying spectacular views. Or go for a beach walk on our private secluded sandy beach.

Our kids grew up on weekends here, so it is also a great spot for a family vacation. We have lots of beach toys and nothing like planting a chair in the sand while your kids run around. We can comfortably hold two families of four (8 people total) if you have the kids stay in the loft. We have had 4 adults and 6 kids for long weekends, it only gets tight in bad weather and everyone is inside.

* Note that the map location says Harstine Island, but if you look closely at the location, we are NOT on Harstine or any other island.

Lovely bay view and sand beach.

Two weeks at this nice property. Even with the rain we had it was snug. Enough beautiful days to feel how lovely this area is. Close enough to Key Center for groceries, hreat Mexican restaurant in Home, nice beach state park at Joemma park. Very nice stay.

Sunset Retreat

What a wonderful getaway home! Everything we needed for a long weekend was at our disposal. The kitchen was well-appointed, including all of the basics (spices, seasonings, evoo, etc)...this has seldom been our experience at previous rentals. The bathroom was equally well-stocked with full-size products and linens. As lovely as the home was, it was secondary to the amazing beach, view and glorious sunsets. I could have been content to just live on the deck! Our host was as wonderful as his property. Upon our return home, my daughter discovered she had left her phone. After trading messages with David, he was not only able to find it under the sofa where it had accidentally fallen, but got it up to his home, which is only about 5 miles from where she lives. Thank you, David (and family) for sharing your charming beach cottage with us!

The Beach

Beautiful setting on the water low bank with a sandy beach. We had a light show the first night. Watching lightening on the water was a new experience. Great walks on the beach and kids spend their day in the sand and water. Everyone loved it.

Great getaway!

Beautiful, well maintained home right on the ocean. For once, the claim of a well stocked kitchen lived up to expectations. Host was very helpful and we certainly enjoyed our stay. Already talking about a return visit. Thanks!!! Mike and Melinda

About the host

Hosted by David Overcash

Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest. Grew up fishing, camping, hiking and enjoying the great outdoors with my dad and family. Big Seattle sports fan and bleed Purple and Gold of my Washington Huskies! Love spending time with my family and my two amazing daughters.

Why they chose this property

As our daughters have gotten older and become very active in their activities, we were not using the beach house nearly as much. It is a very special place, so we wanted to create the opportunity for others to enjoy it while keeping it in the family for generations to come.

This property is an absolute oasis! Family friendly while being a place of relaxation and healing. This is not your Spring Break getting away and not any ordinary rental property. We still spend lots of time here and love that we are able to share it with you. Our community is one big family here, so we ask everyone to be respectful of all our neighbors – and don’t be surprised if someone ask you who you are and strikes up a conversation. We all look after one another.

Thank you for reading this, respecting our wishes, and for taking care of our “beach hideaway” during your stay. We are truly blessed for this sanctuary, and we look forward to sharing it with you!

David, Sherie, Dyllan & Sydney

What makes this property unique

Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, I have never seen this big of a sandy beach anywhere except Ocean Shores. It is an amazing one-of-a-kind treasure. The beach walks are unbelievable with tons of open sapce and a crazy sand dollar bed. The sunsets are spectacular year around with great views of the Olympic mountains. Over the last few years we have also seen an increase in Orca and Humpback whale sightings from our deck. It just never disappoints!
