Your Forest Hideaway on Beautiful Harstine Island

Cross the bridge to Harstine Island and step into a serene forest retreat. Tucked beneath towering Alaska Cedars and Big Leaf Maples, this charming one-bedroom guest cabin offers comfort, quiet, and the beauty of nature on a peaceful 10-acre property. Wander meandering woodland trails, snack on wild huckleberries, or soak in the hot tub beneath the trees—it's the perfect place to unwind.

The cozy cabin sleeps 2+ with a comfy queen bed, a kids’ sleeping loft, and a full-size futon in the living room. You'll find everything you need for a relaxing stay: a complete kitchenette, a covered porch with a café table, a private patio with a swing for two, a gas BBQ, and of course—the hot tub, exclusively for guest use.

The beach is just a short walk away, perfect for quiet moments watching herons, seals, and the shifting tides.

While the cabin is its own private space, the property owners’ home is nearby—close enough to offer a warm welcome or assistance if needed, but far enough to ensure your privacy and peace.

Explore nearby state parks or take a day trip into the South Puget Sound or Olympic Peninsula. Whether you're seeking rest, romance, or outdoor adventure, this peaceful woodland escape offers a perfect blend of comfort and nature.

Quiet, lovely space

After a small mix up at the beginning of our stay, which the hosts took care of immediately, everything went smoothly.The cabin is a great space for a quiet get away. The property is great with lots of places to go, trails to walk on, and places to sit outside and relax.

Wonderful Western Washington Woods

Wandering trails through the woods with a little stream babbling along. Lots of spots to sit and ponder or relax. Plus a cozy cabin to curl up in. What's not to love.

The Perfect Weekend Getaway

My husband and I had a rare 3day off at the same time. All we wanted was quiet, nature and a hot tub, and we enjoyed just that. The cabin is adorably rustic, feels secluded and comes with most necessities. Comfy bed, fire pit, multiple areas to sit and relax and the hot tub (with robes!) didn't disappoint. The properties trails, the welcoming owners and the "local animals" were a huge bonus.

This was definitely exactly what we needed. Quiet little place off the beaten path, easy enough to find if you know where you're going. Property was clean and accessible for outloading and unloading our personal belongings and once we were inside, it was heaven. All of the comforts from home! Fun things to do on the property and the hot tub was amazing after a long day of walking and exploring. There are so many wonderful things to say about this Hideaway, and we will definitely be back!
