About this property

Point Robinson Lighthouse - Keeper's Quarters A

The island's own lighthouse station offers weekend and week-long stays in the two renovated keepers' 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 Salish Sea (aka Puget Sound), and Vashon-Maury Island.

The 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 (təqʷuʔməʔ or Mt. Tahoma to the Coast Salish people, which means "Giver of Water") and sometimes, pods of orcas, too!

Holiday getaway

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.

The perfect getaway!

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.

Vashon with Friends

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.

Great experience - will be back for sure!

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.

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!!

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!
