The Space: This cozy cottage is one of the last remaining original beach cottages at Richmond Beach. These cottages were built as weekend homes for the well-heeled of Seattle in the late 1800's. Folks would take the train up the coast from downtown Seattle in the days when there was still a train stop here, to get away from city life to the peaceful and beautiful views of Puget Sound which Richmond Beach is known and cherished for!
The cottage has been lovingly restored retaining its rich history, with the addition of comfortable modern amenities as well as a private deck for guests nested in mature bamboo landscaping with an outdoor dining table and mediation bench, there is additionally an old-fashioned front porch, complete with rocking chair, and overlooking a tranquil Koi Pond.
Moreover, Richmond Beach is an upscale and wonderfully quiet neighborhood, where long walks with water views are always a favorite -- you will surely have a fantastic time during your stay!

This Richmond Beach stay was excellent. The charm, special touches, sauna and location were perfect. I would love to stay here again. The beach is nearby and great to walk and explore!
We found the cottage a comfortable stay when visiting family in the Seattle. The location has a couple of views of Puget Sound and is just a short distance from Richmond Beach Saltwater Park. Our host, Jason, responded promptly to our questions. There is an excellent local casual dining restaurant, Blackbird, nearby and the cottage is not too far from the charming village of Edmonds which also offers excellent restaurants. We're happy to recommend the cottage.
This cottage is a perfect getaway for a person or couple. It is aesthetically charming and had everything I needed. Great spot to recharge and work on crafts. Walking distance to a beach park as well as bars and restaurants.
We loved our stay at Jason's cabin. He was very attentive, friendly, and provided everything we needed in the cabin. The cabin itself felt very private and cozy. There was a heater and A/C unit provided in case it felt stuffy. The location was near the water and the view was so pretty. On the clear sunny days you can see Mt Olympus from across the water.
A sweet little cabin in a quiet neighborhood. Clean tidy and well kept. Close to beach- great view.

I would definitely stay in this charming cottage again. The neighborhood is residential and quiet. The view of the water adds to the peacefulness experienced in the cottage. It may have been a little difficult to find in the dark, but fortunately we easily found it in the day light.
Lovely quaint. Had everything i needed for few days. Sauna looked lovely but it was jot so i didnt get a chance to check it out. Wifi was hood and they had a fan and on hot day that really helped circulate the ac. Met the owner and he made a lovely sushi suggestion. Thank you!
Had a great time at the cottage for a long weekend painting retreat in Edmonds. Walkable to parks and restaurants if you’re ok with some hills. Wonderful tiny kitchen with everything you need. Would come back!

We booked a 3 week stay. Due to duration we needed a few extra essentials. They were immediately provided. Otherwise well equipped little cottage. Bed was comfortable. Views/sunsets spectacular. Excellent area with an abundance of things to do.

Hard to find and for some reason we thought that the property was on the beach and I think the left hand side of the house sank another inch while we were there!
