serene stay

We loved our stay at this property. The back deck is right on the water and we enjoyed watching the pelicans, osprey, and even a couple of otters one morning. The beds were really comfortable, kitchen was well stocked with everything you’d want at a rental, and check-in and communication was great. We’ll absolutely be staying here again!

We enjoyed our stay on Puget Island. The home was clean and the view is amazing being right on the water. The owners were quick to respond to our questions and needs. We were ISO a paddle boarding spot and happy to find that we could launch a board here at high tide.The only reason for the not giving it 5 stars, the sleeping arrangement was less than desirable as the beds are not walk-around, someone has to shimmy out of bed and the bathroom is a ways away.Overall I would recommend a stay here. Thank you Steven and Betsy for sharing your home with us.

This home was the perfect get away. We had a great time watching the wildlife from the back porch. The raccoons, otters, and many different birds were abundant. The home is nicely equipped with everything a family needs. Mr. And Mrs. Simpson were the nicest hosts we have ever experienced. They went above and beyond to make our stay as amazing as possible. Mr. Simpson shared his knowledge of the best fishing locations with my husband. We hated to head back to Texas but we hope to return in the future.

Great stay

We didnt know much about Cathlemet/ Columbia River area, but staying in this lovely cabin afforded us a close up of the tides and bird life of the islands in the river. The cabin has everything you might need in the kitchen ( we are picky) with thoughtful extras throughout including very comfortable beds. Definitely worth coming again.

Short getaway

Awesome property right on the water with a deck to stand/sit on and take in the stunning views and wildlife. The property is close to amenities like restaurants, market, and ferry to Astoria yet is still very private and a good place to get away from it all.

Amazing Winter Getaway

What a wonderful cozy getaway. The owners have a great feel for what folks are looking for in a getaway as a matter of fact they nailed it. Beautiful views out every window, birds, geese, deer, and elk up in the hills. Can't wait to come back and get some fishing in. This place will not disappoint. Thank you again for a restful and relaxing getaway. The West Family
