It has an expansive, spectacular 180-degree view of Puget Sound facing Gig Harbor to the south, the Kitsap Peninsula to the west and Mount Baker to the north. There is no other place on the island quite like it. Our 3-bedroom home is beautifully furnished to make you feel comfortable and at home. The refinished wooden walls give it a warm, rustic, retreat atmosphere. You can enjoy the view from the inside of the house or comfortably sit on the west and north facing wrap around deck. The beautiful westward water view is relaxing and breathtaking. You may experience colorful sunsets, glistening calm or whitecap and windy stormy waters. Every day is a unique experience, never the same. The property is accessible to smaller boats during the spring, summer and early fall using our floating dock.

Thanks to our hosts for another wonderful stay! As always, the house was perfect and the setting even better! Vashon is the perfect PNW getaway, with a short ferry ride, great coffee houses, fun shopping, beaches and the lighthouse. Such a neat community and we feel tucked right into it while we stay at Driftwood. We love visiting this house in the winter for the NW moodiness and beach combing. The house is great for our family and comes equipped with everything you need to prepare meals, play games, light a bonfire on the beach and get cozy. Communication with the host is super easy. Unlike some vrbos that have so many rules and duties that it feels hostile-driftwood feels very relaxed and we felt welcomed. Can’t wait to return!

We booked this to visit relatives on Vashon Island for Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, we only had a few days we could spend there, but this property was an excellent choice for it. Once you arrive at the property, you may not want to leave it. Located on a point, you have an expansive water view….. all yours. The house is located on the beach level, so it’s easy walking to the water, or down to the dock. Parking is right at the house, so no need to navigate steep dangerous stairs, etc. I cannot review the TV….. we never used it. Why bring in the outside world when in paradise ? We have stayed in other properties on Vashon Island previously, but this one will be our first choice for future returns, if it is available.

Highly recommend!! One of best waterfront locations we've ever experienced. Cozy cabin & tons of amenities. Kitchen very well stocked & home had everything we needed -- even sand toys for the kids to borrow. Beautiful!!

Maryann who met us at the property to check us in was amazing. The house was immaculately clean. Views and peace better than advertised. Just awesome. Going to make this another stop soon for longer! Thanks, The Wakeham’s

From the absolute charm of the house to the unsurpassed ocean views to the caring and kindness of the host, everything about Driftwood is centered on creating an unforgettable vacation for you and your family. The bird watching is amazing (I stopped counting how many different birds we observed!), the occasional seal can be seen swimming by, and the water is clear and calm so you can easily watch the swimming sea life. The beautiful water views, as seen from indoors or out, are astounding and will definitely stay with you. The furniture is comfortable (my husband fell in love with couches), the bedding is soft, the kitchen is well stocked with dishes and such, and the gorgeous water can be seen from nearly every area, even the laundry room. We would recommend Driftwood and would most assuredly stay there again!

Spectacular location, perfectly organized, quiet except for call of birds and the occasional wave arriving on shore from the wake of a distant boat..,if you need to relax and gaze at the view or read a book, this place is for you.

The property is beautiful and peaceful on a great beach. 5 adults between ages 28-68. We had a family reunion on the Island elsewhere but the mornings with coffee on the porch and the bedding for sleep were wonderful. All the amenities that you can think of. We would rent again!
