Enjoy any season at THE CROW'S NEST at Anderson Landing. On the second floor of a separate building from the main house you'll have privacy, comfort, view and access to one of the most beautiful bays on Puget Sound. Enjoy our no-bank waterfront with view seating, lush gardens, and fire pit right on the beach. Relax on your private deck where you can greet the morning sun with coffee & enjoy the evening shade with a glass of wine. In the foreground of your view you'll see the quiet lush Shade Garden designed by the owner, a Master Gardener. From Crow's Nest's queen-size bed view the water and Mt. Rainier...or the very large flatscreen TV. Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu & Hulu Live TV for standard tv cable services are included for those sports fans- WiFi is very good! For those looking to do remote work, you'll find the Crow's Nest to be a quiet and easy atmosphere. We do consistently host guest who are simply looking for a change of scenery and who enjoy handling their zoom meetings & emails from laptops without issues. Linens are provided. Laundry facilities available for those who stay a minimum of 1 week. To reach the waterfront, you'll walk a narrow herb-filled side pathway to the right side of our waterfront home. Please feel free to use our shared dock between us and the neighbors to the left. We've had many a guest bring a blanket down to the dock to site upon and enjoy quiet time down there with their feet dangling from the sides. Additionally, we do have a small firepit with seating which is available to use during non-winter months, so please just ask if interested! If you'd like to stretch your muscles and do a bit of water activity, there are two orange colored kayaks and life jackets available. Feel free to paddle your way around the peaceful waters and explore Wollochet Bay. You are also welcome to bring your own paddle boards, kayaks, canoes or whatever boats you float. Even in the WINTER, this cozy coastal retreat offers a quiet tranquility and beauty. Hundreds of unusual and beautiful migrating waterfowl visit these waters only at this time of the year. The sunsets can be quite spectacular and, with the occasional cold snap, we'll get the occasional snow once or twice a year. Our weather is temperate and seldom gets too hot (usually in the 70's and 80's in the the summer) or too cold (with winter averaging in the 40's). Parking - we do have one available dedicated parking spot for our renters. If you do have a guest/family member in the area who would like to stop by for the day, it shouldn't be an issue.
