Lakefront Getaway; Weekly Discounts Available
About this house rental
Nestled in Anderson Island, this lovely house for R 5,785 per night is a great option for your next vacation. We have moved, because of our work schedules, to a 7 night Sunday-Sunday minimum stay during peak season (mid-June to mid-September). Anderson Island is one of the best kept secrets in the Pacific Northwest, and especially unique because of its quiet atmosphere and tranquility even while enjoying remarkable proximity to Seattle, Tacoma, and even Portland. Typically one would have to travel a great distance to experience the serenity and seclusion of Island life, yet it is provided by a short 20 minute ferry ride from Steilacoom, which is just southwest of Tacoma. The Lakefront Getaway is a 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath home with an additional open upstairs loft with a futon, comfortably sleeping 8 people. The main floor features an open-concept living room with fireplace, kitchen, and dining area...as well as two bedrooms and a full bath. Sliding glass doors in the living room and the master bedroom lead to the full-width deck. The lower level has a bedroom, large multi-purpose room with wood stove, full bath, and a bonus room. French doors lead to a patio followed by the walkway to the lake. The property has 200 feet of frontage on Lake Josephine, the quiet lake where many types of watercraft including row boats, paddle boats, paddle boards, kayaks, canoes, sailboats, etc. are allowed...except gasoline powered. During the day we like playing in the lake and/or exploring the Island, then returning to build a campfire in the open fire pit, enjoying peaceful evenings roasting hot dogs and marshmallows sharing stories of the day's events, the wildlife observed, and planning tomorrow's activities. We welcome your questions about the property or the Island, and appreciate your interest.

This is one of my favorite places. All the toys for all age groups. Beautiful home with everything you can think of.
It is where my now 10 year old learned to kayak. He talks about Anderson Island all year long and he has only ever been to this house.
Not our first visit and not our last!

We all very much enjoyed our stay. The home is as advertised and was very well laid out for our use. We used the kayaks and our one fisherman caught a lot of fish! (Caught and released) We also appreciated the close proximity to the pickleball courts! We will be booking again. Thank you!

The location and view can’t be beat!! We loved waking up to the lake view each morning! There was something for everyone to do in this lakefront home. The kayaks and pedal boats were so fun to have, there was no reason to leave! There were even toys for the younger kids in our group. Plenty of bedrooms and beds for our group of 8. The kitchen is well stocked and had everything we needed to make all of our meals at home. The owners were very quick to respond to any questions we had and they were so thoughtful to leave a welcome basket of goodies for us! We will be back!!

We've been vacationing on Anderson Island in the summer for 20 years and have stayed in many different vacation homes. The O'Leary house was our favorite by far. We loved all the water toys and having views of the lake activities from the deck, so we could keep an eye on the kids. We also loved sitting around the fire pit in the evening. The hosts greeted us with a S'mores basket. There were plenty of blankets and sleeping/napping opportunities, from beds, couches, hammock and futons. Everything we needed in the kitchen was on hand. The hosts were very responsive to pre-check-in questions. We'll definitely be back.

This is becoming our yearly staycation trip. It has everything we need, space to spread out, outdoor toys, and the location is perfect. Already trying to reserve dates for next summer. 🙂

This was a great stay! We had an amazing time on the water. It was nice and quiet. I would definitely recommend going to the general store and if you come on the weekend (we didnt) you could go to the gift shop and they have a little museum. All and all a great and memorable experience on anderson island.

This was our 3rd time at this beautiful lakeside home, and it certainly won’t be our last! It is hands down our favorite place to stay on Anderson Island! The O’Learys are gracious hosts who have thought of everything. A perfect blend of luxury, location, and leisure with all the amenities for an ideal family vacation!!

This home on Anderson Island is superb. Very clean and had everything we needed and things we didn't know we needed! The lake front property is beautifully maintained. We spent the whole weekend at the property - there was no need to go anywhere else on the island for water sports - the house has great swimming/floating off the dock and kayaks, paddle boats, and paddle boards available for use! Our group of 8 fit easily with plenty of room to spread out. There were toys available for the kids, plenty of kitchen supplies, and a nice welcome basket, which was a personalized touch. The house did get a little warm without AC (it was 95 degrees our weekend) but it cooled down nicely with the provided fans and we slept comfortably at night. Would 100% recommend and we will be back.

Had the most perfect summer getaway at this house on the lake. I had previously been to Anderson Island with friends and wanted to show my husband and this place did not disappoint. We had tons of space to spread out but good gathering places to eat and hang out. Property is beautiful and the grassy slopes to the lake are to die for! Already planning to go back next summer!

The O’Learys Vacation House
This vacation home is beautiful! Check-in was great and they had balloons for my daughters birthday. We had some connection issues as well as well as a smell issue with the sink, but the O’Learys were quick tell us a solution and/or contact the internet company.

Our family enjoyed every moment of our one week stay at the O’Leary’s home in Anderson Island! As soon as we pulled into the driveway after a long flight from Florida we were blown away by the natural beauty all around; Pinch me!! Was my first thought.
Waking up to the sunrise as I worked from this home was magical; coffee on the back deck, the smell of pine and view of Lake Josephine- unbelievable!
We had everything we needed! Beds were extremely comfortable and the house was super clean!
The O’ Leary’s provide everything needed to explore and enjoy the lake; paddle boards, kayaks, peddle boats etc… They provide wood for the fire pit and grill access- simply perfect!
I am looking forward to our next trip and will not think twice about where to stay!

We stayed at the property over a three day weekend and were all enchanted by both the house and the island. We loved kayaking and paddle boating around the lake and hiking throughout the island. Our kids were thrilled by the ferry ride, spotting tons of jellyfish and even a porpoise from the top deck.
The house was clean, cozy, and had plenty of space for all seven of us.

Relaxing week on the lake
This was our second time staying at this property and we will likely rent again. The house is well equipped, has a wonderful yard and beautiful views of the lake. The water equipment was perfect for our group! The owner has always been very responsive and helpful if we’ve had any questions and the new dock is a great place to soak up the sun! Great stay!

Relaxing and outdoor adventures
Wow, what an amazing place. The house is beautiful and has so many nooks and crannies, includes everything needed (spices, ziplock bags, blender, kayaks, water toys for kids, paddle board, s’mores, etc.).
We had a magical time! Can’t wait to come back!

We came back for another amazing summer vacation, second year in a row! This house is perfect for our family! The lake is warm, there are plenty of water toys, the view from the balcony is amazing! The house has all you need to just relax and forget your life at home. Fully equipped kitchen, lots to do in the house and around it. The only opportunity for improvement is the uncomfortable bed at the lower floor. The rest of the beds were great, the bedding superb and the towels like new. Thank you so much Sean and Sally for a great summer vacation!

Amazing Anderson Island home on the ‘quiet lake’ with activities for all ages.

Our visit to Anderson Island could not have been more wonderful! Our hosts provided a wonderful location for rest, relaxation, and entertainment on the water. The house was clean and cozy. Perfect for our family of five. The hosts even provided a thoughtful gift basket! We have a new favorite spot in the Pacific Northwest.

We absolutely loved everything about the lake house. Kept us occupied with different water activities through the memorial day weekend. It was my daughter's first kayak experience and will be etched in our (incl grandparents) memories for time to come. We also enjoyed sitting by the fire in the evenings. Deer sightings in the morning and evening right in the yard. A really perfect outing we cherished thoroughly.
