Vashon Island's lighthouse station offers weekend and week-long stays in the two renovated Keeper's Quarters. The two residences share the beach with the lighthouse and other features of the historic light station. Both residences are available for rent throughout the year and offer groups of up to six adults a wonderful way to enjoy the beach, the Puget Sound, and Vashon-Maury Island.
Keepers Quarters A at Point Robinson Light Station is a modest three-bedroom, two-bath, two-story bungalow perched near the lighthouse on the shore of the East Passage of Puget Sound. It offers a wondrous porch looking out over the water and, on a clear day, you'll be able to see Mt. Rainier and sometimes, pods of orcas, too!

Our two day stay at Keeper's Quarters A was wonderful. We enjoyed short walks on the beach where we saw a seal and two river otters and spent evenings in the cozy home playing games. It is a wonderfully relaxing and peaceful.
Beautiful house in a gorgeous setting! The front porch and view is fantastic and the house has everything you need - the kitchen is particularly well stocked for a vacation rental.
Highly recommend!
This is our second stay at the house, and it was perfect. Cheryl was great to work with when coordinating the details, and the on-site property manager quickly resolved an after-hours request. The house gives a beautiful view of the beach and water, where we enjoyed watching the world go by. We also saw a few river otters playing nearby - what a treat! The kitchen is filled with just about everything you could need, the beds were comfortable and plenty of blankets provided. We will definitely be back! Thanks so much to the staff that manages the property - we truly appreciate it.
This place is an amazing location, easily accessible by ferry from Tacoma or Seattle. The picture window in the living room is the highlight, but this location is well equipped to entertain all ages any time of year.
From beginning to end, this adventure was amazing. My hubby and I have stayed at the lighthouse before and enjoyed it, but sharing with friends was the best. We were all in awe of the beautiful house and the view. Being there during storm only added to the adventure. We even saw a pod of whales. Amazing.
We enjoyed the mixture of old style and modern conveniences. The house was clean and comfortable. The view was marvelous- we had two gorgeous days to enjoy a front porch view of the mountain. Sunset and sunrise were amazing. The caretaker next door is very nice and helpful. We enjoyed watching otters and seals in the water as we sipped our coffee on the porch. Wonderful getaway with the family.
We come here every year and are never disappointed. We love being by the water and it doesn't get much better than this. House is great, more than large enough for our family. Look forward to coming back!
This was our 10th year staying at Quarters A. Our kids never want to leave when I stay comes to an end. Thanks Vashon Parks and those who worked so hard to preserve this gem!
Vashon is a beautiful island, but being able to stay in the Lighthouse Keepers' Quarters was a highlight of the trip. Super comfortable house and wonderful waterfront porch with rocking chairs for soaking in the view and scouting wildlife. We will be back!!
We loved every minute of our stay! There was a wide variety of wildlife, beautiful sunsets featuring Mount Rainier, boat and plane travel to watch, and lots of history. Keeper House A was very spacious and inviting. We will definitely be back!
The view, the view, the view. We all grew up on the other side and really enjoyed pointing out familiar spots along with boats, planes, the mountain. Hope to be back again someday.

Why they chose this property
Point Robinson - what a special gift this property is to the people of Vashon. There are not a lot of places in the world where you can witness whales breaching an arm's length away and giant ships steaming by in the night, or, watch Great Blue Herons, Bald Eagles, and Osprey fishing for prey in front of a working lighthouse. So, on behalf of our Island and the Vashon Park District, welcome to Point Robinson Lighthouse. You're going to love it.
What makes this property unique
The Lighthouse and the two Keeper's Quarters are well over 100 years old, perched right on the shore of Puget Sound. There really aren't a lot of properties like this in WA State (or anywhere). A truly unique historical experience!
