Point Robinson Lighthouse - Keeper's Quarters A

The island's own lighthouse station offers weekend and week-long stays in the two renovated keepers' quarters. The two residences share the beach with the lighthouse and other features of the historic light station. Both residences are available for rent throughout the year and offer groups of up to six adults a wonderful way to enjoy the beach, the Salish Sea (aka Puget Sound), and Vashon-Maury Island.

The Keepers' Quarters A at Point Robinson Light Station is a modest three-bedroom, two-bath, two-story bungalow perched near the lighthouse on the shore of the East Passage of Puget Sound. It offers a wondrous porch looking out over the water and, on a clear day, you'll be able to see Mt. Rainier (təqʷuʔməʔ or Mt. Tahoma to the Coast Salish people, which means "Giver of Water") and sometimes, pods of orcas, too!

Vashon with Friends
From beginning to end, this adventure was amazing. My hubby and I have stayed at the lighthouse before and enjoyed it, but sharing with friends was the best. We were all in awe of the beautiful house and the view. Being there during storm only added to the adventure. We even saw a pod of whales. Amazing.

Great experience - will be back for sure!
We enjoyed the mixture of old style and modern conveniences. The house was clean and comfortable. The view was marvelous- we had two gorgeous days to enjoy a front porch view of the mountain. Sunset and sunrise were amazing. The caretaker next door is very nice and helpful. We enjoyed watching otters and seals in the water as we sipped our coffee on the porch. Wonderful getaway with the family.

Amazing location!
Our stay was so relaxing and beautiful! Everything we needed was on the Island from groceries to restaurants to cute little shops and a farmers market. The property was close to everything but hey far enough away to be peaceful and relaxing.

My New Happy Place
Vashon is a beautiful island, but being able to stay in the Lighthouse Keepers' Quarters was a highlight of the trip. Super comfortable house and wonderful waterfront porch with rocking chairs for soaking in the view and scouting wildlife. We will be back!!

Girls Weekend
The home is spacious. It was great that each of us could have our own room and a kitchen to make tea and food. We loved sitting in the living room and saw bald eagles, otters and a seal. It was also a treat to have Oscar the Bird King troll in walking distance. The quiet made for good sleeping and it was wonderful to spend time with friends.

Absolute treasure!
We stayed at Pt.Robinson because we needed more room for family in preparation for my mother’s memorial service. I had always wanted to see inside the lighthouse keepers’ cottages, having visited the beach many times over the years. It is nothing short of magical! Beautiful restoration, comfortable, well-equipped and breathtaking scenery!

Hard to beat staycation.
I grew up on Vashon, and always wanted to stay there. We only had to travel for an hour to get there, and it felt like a special and unique setting. We saw porpoise, orcas and harbor seals. The 3 days we stayed were a vacation from a cold and wet May, the weather was beautiful.

Make your adult dreams come true
We got to be lighthouse keepers for the weekend and the experience did not disappoint. Highly recommend! The caretaker was kind, the house was historic and comfortable, and access to the property after dark was a special treat (the trolls as INCREDIBLE). The only downside was the crowds, but we were grateful for fence giving us a little breathing room.

Lighthouse fun!
We loved staying here! Our entire family had fun playing on the beach and riding scooters on the sidewalk. Eric was a big help as was Ingrid. What a beautiful view to enjoy! We highly recommend it to all. Can't wait to stay there again.
