Waterfront, Kayak, Paddle Board, Fire Pit, View! Herron Island is a small and secluded private Island in southern Puget Sound where you'll see more deer, eagles, seals and whales than people. A short 10 minute ferry ride separates you from all the distractions of the mainland. You can only access the island by our private 12 car ferry. There are no stores or restaurants on the island so you'll experience a level of peace and quiet that is hard to match anywhere else. Ductless heating and air conditioning keep the house comfy and cozy year round. There are 2 bedrooms plus a large sleeping loft. The master bedroom has a cozy queen size bed and a stunning view of the water. The second bedroom has a comfortable queen size bed. There is a sleeping loft with 4 single beds. There are enough beds for 8. The open living/dining/kitchen area is a great place to congregate, prepare meals and enjoy time together. There are 2 decks with spectacular views of the Puget Sound year round. Sunrises are nothing short of inspirational. Watching the moonlight reflect off of the water at night is one of the most beautiful sights you will ever see. Take in the view from the deck or just stay in bed and enjoy from your bedroom window. You'll have complete access to the beach via our private stairs where you'll find 2 kayaks and 2 stand-up paddle boards waiting for you. The water in case inlet is warm enough to swim in the summer and uncommonly calm year round, making for some of the smoothest water sports you'll find anywhere. Guests enjoy kayaking and beach combing all year. A walk around the island on the beach is a great way to spend an afternoon and see a wide range of the beauty the Puget Sound has to offer. Whether you bundle up in the winter or put on your flip flops in the summer, a walk around the island on the beach is a fantastic way to experience the beauty of the Puget Sound. The island is just over a mile long and can be circled in under 2 hours at a leisurely pace. Expect to encounter a variety of Northwest wildlife including seals, otter, eagles, herons, deer and porpoise. If you're lucky you'll see the Orca and Humpback whales that have been visiting the island in ever increasing numbers. Listen for them spouting. After you play at the beach you can rinse away the salt and sand with a fresh water rinse at our beach shed. A complete set of patio furniture (table, chairs and umbrella) are set up during spring and summer on our upper deck. The gas grill, gas fire pit and a set of Adirondack chairs are available year round. We supply the propane. The lower deck is a great place to slip off to for a little seclusion. Any meal enjoyed on the deck will be one you will remember forever. There is no cable TV or internet but most people can get some cell coverage and internet via their mobile phones. If needed there are several areas on the island where cell signals are strong. There is a TV, VHS player and a huge library of VHS tapes. Yep! VHS tapes. Our guests consistently rave about cozying up to watch movies from our collection of of vintage movies. We considered adding DSL but our guests have so enjoyed the escape from their technology that we've decided to remain un-wired. Round trip ferry toll is $25.00 for a car and driver plus $5 for each additional passenger. Ferry lines can get long particularly on holidays and weekends. Please help us keep our ferry lines short by arriving in as few vehicles as possible. Once you arrive on the island there's not much need for a car. You can walk anywhere you want to go. There is no public transportation that can bring you to Herron Island. If you're flying in from out of town plan on renting a car at the airport. THERE ARE NO STORES, RESTAURANTS OR MEDICAL SERVICES ON THE ISLAND. YOU'LL NEED TO BRING ALL YOUR FOOD. We supply all towels, linen, foil, soap and paper products. The tap water is fine for drinking. Herron Island is a very peaceful place. Please respect our neighbors peace, privacy and property at all times. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - Games - TV - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Area rugs in public areas - Handrails in stairways - Hardwood flooring in public areas - In-room accessibility - Step to reach entrance - Thin carpet in public areas - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Gym - Kayak - Water sports equipment - Basketball nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Double-glazed windows - Garden - Recycling - Unit size: 1,320 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27320000/27314300/27314286/81646ec7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Secret Island Beachfront Escape.

We all loved it. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. We had just about everything we needed that was described. The only thing that was a little disappointing was that there was no propane left in the tank to use the fire pit when we got there. But otherwise we had a great experience! I personally would book it again in the future! ##### Amanda B.

It's inconveniences are what make it SO good -- no phone, no lights, no stores, no restaurants. Just you, a good book, and time to make yourself a solid meal while you sip a glass of pinot noir.

We had such a wonderful stay - we especially enjoyed using the kayaks and paddleboards and eating out on the deck for every meal! We had 8 total with the kids...my only piece of advice for anyone with the full party of 8 is that the kitchen table is really only for 4 people. No problem for us as it was beautiful out and we ate outside the entire time. And make sure to bring beach chairs. We loved it - the kids want to come back every year! :) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### jeffrey j. 6 Apr 2018 #### Exactly what was stated in the description. Entire family loved it. We didn’t want to leave. Movie collection was a god send on the rainy day for my grand kids. Everyone enjoyed the beaches and the shore in front of cabin. Grand kids were able to feed the deer, crab hunting and beach combing. Would recommend this to everyone. Thanks to the Bennett’s for sharing their home with us. This is something my family will remember forever. ##### jeffrey j. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terri W. 5 Apr 2018 #### Amazing! Can't wait to go back! We had a great 4 night stay at Donn's place! From the beautiful view, to the decktop propane fire pit, to the amazingly equipped kitchen continuing to the provided paddleboards and kayaks! No detail was left unattended! All of us wished we could stay longer and we will be booking a subsequent trip for sure! Our weather was mostly rainy and cool but that was just fine because inside we were warm with the pellet stove and enjoyed reading, playing games and watched several old movies from Donn's fantastic VHS collection. During a few weather breaks we were able to take several walks (both on the beach and on the roads of the island) as well as kayak/paddleboard around the island (took about 75 minutes). It was such a fantastic getaway! Thanks Donn for making your beautiful place available for us! ##### Terri W.

We needed a mid-week Spring Break getaway for me 4 kids to work around our schedule, and this fit the bill! The house is beautiful, clean, and right on the water. The pictures do not do it justice. All of my kids loved kayaking around--it was very safe! My teens stayed in the two master bedrooms giving them a little privacy, while I shared the loft with my younger kids. The owners thought of everything, from well-stocked bathrooms and kitchen, to life jackets and a fire pit. A calm, peaceful vacation. The lack of good cell coverage was a plus--my teens stayed off their phones the whole time. Bring your family to this beautiful home. You won't be disappointed. ##### Amy Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alie B. 10 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy ##### Alie B.

Property is exactly as described and has everything you need! Many games and movies provided. Views are to die for and kayaks/paddle boards are provided. Seeing the deer is always a big hit for the kids. There is a pretty good playground in the middle of the island (walkable with kids from the house) and another one at N Beach. So many cool tiny sea creatures to see and explore at low tide. The property manager is very responsive via text during our stays. ##### Julie B.

Beautiful setting and right on the water. Hostess had thought of everything to make our stay so comfortable. Walked the island everyday, fed the deer and slept the best in months. Great way to spend time with the family with no social media to distract anyone ##### Cora P.
