About this cabin rental

Situated in Herron Island, this lovely cabin for $135 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. Cozy, 2 bedroom cabin nestled amongst old growth maple and cedar trees on Herron Island, a private island located In picturesque Case Inlet, South Puget Sound, Washington. A 30-minute drive down the Key Peninsula from Gig Harbor takes you to the dock where you will board the Charlie Wells, the private ferry that services the island (ferry fare not included In rental cost). All guests will need a pass to board the ferry. Contact the owners for this pass prior to your arrival.

A quick 11 minute ride will take you to the island where you will meet the resident deer (which are so tame you can feed them by hand).

The cabin Is located on one of the quietest roads on the island, across from the Nature Park, a wildlife refuge. At the cabin you will find two large decks, one facing west, the other facing east for relaxing, outdoor dining etc... two hammocks in a grove of alder trees make a comfortable place to pass away an afternoon... two beaches, one with a swimming area and marina, one undeveloped, are both within 1/2 mile walking distance of the cabin.

This was our first visit to Herron Island and we'll be back. Maple Grove retreat had everything we needed, from two kayaks to outdoor yard games, to CDs, and comfortable beds. Really appreciated the communication about the property in advance and we're grateful to the owners for sharing this special place!

Our family met on Herron Island for a long reunion weekend, and we landed in the best possible location. The cabin is cozy and yet the layout is spacious, offered every possible necessary amenity (plus things we'd never think of!), and the owner is exceptional about communication. We made some wonderful memories and we hope to return again soon.

A great place to decompress.
Spending time on Herron Island for our family was a good way to decompress. With terrible cell reception, no broadcast, cable or satellite television, no internet, no easy to access restaurants, stores or other services, it was a great place to "unplug" from our regular lives. We found it quite relaxing to just wander the beaches, stretch out on the hammocks, prepare all our meals (no food delivery here, and going to a restaurant would have to require significant planning with ferry schedules),and to feed and interact with the local deer population (all very used to people). Diane, our host, was very responsive to the minor issues that did arise during our stay. There are some maintenance needs with the property that will probably need to be dealt with in the near future, but nothing that kept our stay from being enjoyable.

Diane’s home on Herron Island is a wonderful place to disconnect and recharge. The house is fairly secluded with lots of privacy, the yard is great for dogs to play. The host’s responsiveness is excellent. She answered all questions I had within minutes. The neighbors have dogs and there are no fences, but if your dog can stay within the confines of the yard that shouldn’t be a problem. The island is a wonderful place for long strolls with two absolutely beautiful beaches. During my visit I had the beaches completely to myself most of the time. This was my second time staying at Diane’s house, I look forward to my next visit!

We have stayed here during the summer before but never in the off season. We were able to join the island when the weather was nice, otherwise we enjoyed the cabin and the wonderful fireplace.
