About this cottage rental
Welcome to Bainbridge Island! We are happy to share our cozy little island cottage with visitors looking for a change of scenery or a longer vacation. Just a beautiful 35 minute ferry ride from downtown Seattle and a short 3 mile drive or cab ride from the Bainbridge Ferry terminal, leave your mainland worries behind and come stay in this quaint, well-cared-for 1930s farmer's cottage next door to our home. The views of Mount Rainier and Puget Sound from all the rooms in the house are soothing and spectacular. The bed is a double (full) bed (this is smaller than a queen) due to room size restrictions. There is also a full (double) sofa bed.
Enjoy fresh-brewed Pacific Northwest coffee every morning as you watch the eagles soar over the cove, then go for a walk along Manitou Beach, just a 2 minute stroll down the hill. Head to island favorite Bay Hay & Feed for morning coffee, pastries and conversation, just 1/2 mile away, and while you’re there check out their amazing plants, garden supplies, and general store.
Well-behaved dog guests are welcome for a $50 fee per visit. Please note that the yard is NOT fenced, so bring a lead if your dog needs one.
The Northwest is meant to be moist, so if it's raining you can hole up in the cottage with board games or a movie, but if you're adventurous (or you come in the summer, and it's gorgeous) grab a complimentary umbrella and head out to explore all the island has to offer. The Bloedel Reserve or Bainbridge Gardens will delight with their botanical wonders. Sample some of our seven island wineries or spend the day checking out the art galleries and shops along Winslow Way.
In the evening, enjoy dinner in Winslow or nearby Lynwood Center, pick up some amazing Italian take-out from nearby Via Rosa (1/2 mile from the cottage), or make a meal in our cozy but well-stocked kitchen. At night meet up with friends at one of the island pubs, enjoy a movie at one of the two island cinemas, or hit the blackjack table or dance floor at nearby Suquamish Clearwater Casino, just across the Agate Pass Bridge connecting the island to the Kitsap Peninsula.
Speaking of the Peninsula, use Bainbridge as your home base while you explore surrounding Northwest favorites like Poulsbo (aka Little Norway on the Fjord), Port Gamble with its 1850s logging town activities, Port Townsend with its historic Victorian charm and the amazing Olympic National Forest.

Charming, sweet, clean cozy cottage. Wonderful host who is very accommodating and responds quickly to messages. Beautiful location for walks, views of the sound, Seattle…. A distant view Mount Rainier can be seen from the cottage. Easy drive to town, restaurants. Excellent experience for those who love a cozy cottage life.

Second time staying here. Won’t be the last. Thomas and Heather are wonderful hosts who clearly want their guests to have the best possible experience. If you’re looking for slick and modern with every amenity, this isn’t your place. But if you want simple old world charm and clean coziness, a tranquil and lovely neighborhood, proximity to the water and views, and everything you really need to have a peaceful stay that feels far away from the city and yet a short drive to Winslow restaurants and shopping — and attended to with real care by your hosts, I highly recommend.

Check in process was smooth and easy, host responsive to inquiries and questions within a short amount of time. The cottage is a cute place and also has some improvements that could be made to make it more comfortable (i.e., more windows that are able to be opened, more comfortable outside furniture to use to enjoy the beautiful view).Kitchen and bathroom are very small but were very clean and adequately stocked with basic supplies.
