About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Anderson Island Escape

Newer construction style home, nestled in the woods of the island. Close to saltwater marina with dock for your boat and fresh water lake a block away from the front door for fishing.

This a 1,800 sq ft. family vacation home nestled in the woods, pine needles on the walkway and deer in the yard. Very nice and modern. We just added 2 full size arcade games in the game room. The Simpson which is 4 player and RidgeRacer which also includes 4 other driving games. It is professionally cleaned after each stay, but there may be some dust missed here, spare towel in the washer there, etc... If you want to be on an island in the Puget Sound, have room to stretch out and make smores & memories w/ the family at the backyard fire pit with the occasional deer, than our place is perfect.

Quaint general store, golf course, and restaurant on the shores of Lake Josephine, one of two fresh water lakes on the island.

There is also a historical farm house with gift shops and museum that you can tour. Great time to go is during the annual Apple squeeze where you can press your cider just like the did on the island over a 100 years ago.

As advertised.
Property was as advertised. It's a little close to the resort areas for my personal preference, but others might like the location a lot. The house is larger than It seems from the description and would probably be adequate for a larger group. We may come back with kids.

Great place to gather
We enjoyed the private small backyard and patio, and walking just 2 minutes to a lake dock. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking, and the large living room was good for our group to play games in. Thanks to Greg for the accommodations!

Loved our stay, but property needs maintenance
This is a great house for families! We have five kids and were joined by their grandmother, eight of us all together- there was plenty of room for all of us! First- the highlights of the property: location, location, location! Close to the dock, close to a fun park, quiet spot in the woods. Great slide and swings for littles, and a fun fire pit! There were games, including an awesome wooden chess set that was a big hit with our family! Comfy couches for family time! And now the not so great things- this house needs some maintenance. It was dusty and quite dirty. There weren't sheets on all the beds. The towels were put away soaking wet in the closet. We spent the first day washing towels that had been put away wet. The dishes in the cupboards were also dirty and we had to wash every dish before using it. Lots of lights/lamps were burnt out. There wasn't much organization to anything. There was no dishsoap, we had to go buy some right away. The glass coffee pot was cracked and broken and the smaller coffee pot didn't work. The dishwasher was broken on the handle and the inside rack was in disrepair also. This is a great house and we truly enjoyed our stay, it's a bummer that it isn't better maintained! Would we choose to come back?! Yes. We would. But we now expect to roll up our sleeves and clean up before relaxing.

We found this property to be spacious, clean, quiet and close enough to the lakes and amenities to enjoy all that the HOA has to offer.

Deceptive description, rodent droppings, very dirty!
The description says “ newly built”. In actuality it is 16 years old! Not new at all! Besides the lack of cleanliness, the rodent droppings crossed a line!!! ESPECIALLY since it was mentioned one year ago, and obviously not resolved! ( We found mouse traps, so the owner was well aware of these problem!) The owner was sarcastic and unprofessional. He had the cleaning service come back out, but there was still trash under beds. This property should NOT be rented, especially to a family with a crawling baby! Besides everything else, the health issues are a real concern. We tried to move to another location, but being peak season at A.I. there were no other properties available. I do not recommend this property to anyone!
