Wonderful location and stay! Could walk to the Village in minutes and enjoy the Marketplace, the wine bar (which has live piano on Mondays) and the bakery for breakfast! Loved the view and the front lawn that leads you to the beach where we had several great walks. Great stay!

This provided for a perfect little getaway for my wife and me. The cottage has all the amenities to make it feel like home and there is a gorgeous view of the water. It was also great being within walking distance of restaurants. The host was very responsive to all of our questions! Looking forward to staying here again.

My husband and I had a relaxing getaway at this charming beach cottage. We particularly enjoyed watching the water, boats and birds while sitting on the porch. The cottage was just as described, had everything we needed, and is in an excellent location.

The cottage was perfect for my solo trip. A perfect home base to explore the island and at the end of the day jump in the water and relax. Diane was very helpful and responsive and very welcoming. Would come back in a heartbeat!

Beautiful spot for peaceful get away!

This is a very special cottage on the puget sound. Forest and sea water. Otters, seal lions, herons and eagles. So peaceful. Loved every minute we were there

We absolutely love this cottage and the surrounding area! The view of the Sound and beach from morning coffee on the porch was THE BEST! Oh, and we were lucky enough to have deer come up and hang out on the lawn. The cottage is cozy and had everything we needed, and the host was perfect! This is our new favorite place!!

Lovely property, great for walks along the beach and cuddling up to play boardgames when the weather is grey. Host was great and place was well stocked with everything we needed.

Cozy, charming beach cottage with direct access to the water.

We really enjoyed the cottage and area, we drove down from Vancouver BC and had great communication with the owner. If you need time to diconnect from a busy life this is the place. Walking distance to some restaurants, great sea view with access to the beach.

We loved our visit to Bainbridge Island with the added blessing of staying in this sweet cottage. So peaceful. Beautiful water views. Close to everything for walking. The cottage feels like it’s part of the nature of the island. Diane is an exceptional host. Answered all our questions and even gave us great tips for knowing where to go for shopping, food, restaurants and nature walks. The cottage kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals and the bed was really comfortable!

What a cozy, welcoming place to stay. Diane was so helpful and communicative. The cottage is so cute and waking up to look out at the water was so nice. Perfect for me and my mom to visit family on BI. Thanks, Diane. We hope to be back soon.

Feb 29 & Mar 1st @ the beach of the Puget Sound and a southern view: wonderful. Comfortable, peaceful, & convenient are notions that apply to this cabin. The owner was VERY supportive with great suggestions on where to dine, sites to visit, and places to hang-out and recharge from the busy world. Bainbridge Island is a jem right in Seattle's front yard; close-by yet detached from the metro scene. Pack your flannel shirts & your jeans and blend in with the island locals. Bring along a good book, your bikes or your hiking boots as you may not want to connect to the wifi. In winter we had a marvelous time. In summer, this location would have even greater appeal and broader opportunities for fun. It's a place for a couple to reconnect with each other as well as with the out-of-doors.

This is the second time we've stayed at Diane's property. It's a cozy cottage with all the amenities you might need. It's walking distance to a cute little strip with shops and restaurants and the beach is basically steps from your door. The property was clean, Diane was on hand to answer any questions, check-in and check-out were easy ... overall, an excellent stay once again!

This is a little jewel that takes you back in time. The neighborhood is perfect. We walked to a great breakfast, a fabulous beach walk, caught a movie and then dinner at a sweet restaurant. All without getting in our car. It was lovely. We hope to return.

This lovely studio cottage had everything we needed for a relaxing, romantic getaway. Super comfy bed, delightful beach front, a 2-minute walk to restaurants and the very special shops that are Heyday market and Pane d'Amore. Felt like we were in a small French village. Thank you Diane for being a great host!

Perfect cottage to stay in with my daughter! We were on the island for a soccer tournament and had everything we needed, plus enjoyed a really wonderful night's sleep.

Nothing can beat this location. Beautiful views and extremely relaxing. Our second visit and we’ll be back!

The overall location, view, and ambiance of this property can not be beat!! It is an older property which is fine, but it could really benefit from some upgraded appliances. Mainly the fridge and TV. Over all though we had a wonderful time and can not wait to come back again!! Thank U so much for our amazing litl "Happy Camp 2.0"

Location is amazing and property is very well maintained. Walk directly to the beach! Owners are sweet and very friendly. Only issue is for the price the amenities could use an update. TV is ancient CRT so don't really plan on watching movies (can't connect a modern device anyway), fridge handle is busted, most windows we were worried to try and force open. But very nice design touches otherwise and so convenient!

The cottage is a perfect get-a-way! Nothing fancy but a quaint one-room retreat. Road noise can be disruptive, but the location is great!

We loved this place. It was so comfortable and in a great location. Walk out the door and you are on the beach. Walk a block down the street and there are restaurants, a delicious bakery, wine tasting, ice cream and a wonderful market for groceries. It faces west so every evening you get a beautiful sunset. Diane was fantastic and if there were any questions she responded immediately. I can't say enough about how wonderful this place was. We never wanted to leave.

This lovely little cottage provides a glimpse of island life that is hard to beat. The owner was a delight to work with. The cottage and its location were exactly as pictured. There are great little places to eat within walking distance. We will book again.

When my husband and I arrived we were greeted by two big dogs from the renters that were in the adjacent property that is also owned by Diane. These dogs barked at times and every day would do their business in our yard. Because the other property is extremely close, there is no privacy when there are other renters. After the first set of renters left, the new renters, with kids, decided to play games in our yard even when we were outside sitting on the porch. This was supposed to be a romantic and private getaway as my husband and I work very long hours, with extremely busy schedules. The other issues were that the cottage was not as clean as we expected, as well as was extremely hot, as there is no air conditioning. We looked for a fan to assist in cooling the cottage down, but there wasn't one. We had to drive in town to purchase a stand up fan in order to get the air circulating. Also, everywhere we have stayed in the past, has always provided irons; however, there was no iron, of which we had to also purchase. Since we traveled extremely far, we had to leave the iron and the fan behind. We do hope that other renters will get some use out of these items. One other concern was that there were spiders and webs all on the outside and inside of the cottage. We spent the first day going through and getting rid of the webs and spiders. Underneath the kitchen sink was disgusting due to coffee grinds and other debris that were never cleaned up from the previous renters. The fridge is old and dirty as well. I don't feel that what we paid a night was worth the money. The best part of the cottage was the view; however, when your next door renters with dogs and kids end up in your yard, it ruins the peace and tranquility. We don't recommend this cottage if you are looking for peace, tranquility and privacy, as this is not what you will get if there are renters in the adjecent property, which is extremely close.
