A Perfect Place to Relax and Enjoy Nature

Cross the bridge to Harstine Island and enjoy a beautiful and quiet retreat in the woods. Relax in the comfortably furnished cabin or enjoy exploring the 5 acre property with meandering trails through a lovely forest. Surrounded by huckleberry bushes and nestled among giant Alaska Cedars and Big Leaf Maples, this cozy guesthouse shares the quiet woodland with the property owner’s home. The one bedroom cabin sleeps 2+ with a comfy queen bed and kids loft in the bedroom, and a double size futon in the living room. The complete kitchenette, covered front porch with cafe table and chairs, a covered patio with a sweet swing seat for two, and a gas BBQ, are just some of the other features of the cabin. The beach access is a short walk away and is a great place to sit and enjoy birds, sea life and watch the tides change. Visit one of the state parks on the island, or plan an excursion to explore the wonders in the South Puget Sound or the magnificent Olympic Peninsula -- it's beautiful here!

Restfull
We went to Shelton to visit family and found peace, quiet and a beautiful cabin. If you like to hike and are adventurous the owners will guide you to amazing trails. The outside of our cabin was the best. A swing, hammocks, and fire pit. We highly recommend this place. We’ll be back next year .

Relaxing little trip
We had a quiet and rainy stay. The cabin was cozy and warm. We enjoyed searching for gnomes, saying hello to the horses and a little hot tub time during breaks in the rain. The hosts gave us plenty of privacy, but were quick to respond to messages.

Absolutely magical!
I loved staying at the huckleberry house! It was the perfect spot to celebrate an anniversary with my partner. Even in January during a particularly cold time, we still loved the forest walks, hot tub, and even cooked ourselves a steak dinner in the outdoor firepit! I can't wait to come back in the future to see the place in different seasons.

We enjoyed the quiet set in the trees, the welcoming cake set out for our arrival, and the directions to a lovely beach. We spent time in quiet conversation in the cabin and enjoyed the trails on the property. The presence of our dog made the time away from home complete. It's so nice to be able to bring our dog along.
