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!

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.

The view, the view, the view. We all grew up on the other side and really enjoyed pointing out familiar spots along with boats, planes, the mountain. Hope to be back again someday.

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!!

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.

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!

We rented both properties and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Porch sitting, hiking, kayaking, marine activity, lawn games. Easy family time together. Access to great grocery store or restaurants. Just slow and easy family time. Caretaker is helpful and unobtrusive. Staff of Vashon Parks and Rec friendly and helpful. Captain Joe of the lighthouse a gem of a human.

Spectacular!
What a location, you just can’t beat that anywhere! We looked straight at Mount Rainier all weekend. It didn’t hurt that the weather was fantastic, but we would have been happy in the house anyway. We spent the afternoons just relaxing there. The front porch, the picnic table on the side, the living room – all the spaces were wonderful and comfortable. Dining room and kitchen are nice. Good beds too! Thank you for this wonderful place!
