Mt Rainier & Puget Sound Blick — Zu Fuß zum Strand, Stadt & Fähre

Watch ferries cross Puget Sound with Mt. Rainier behind them, from the living room, kitchen and covered deck. One block to downtown Kingston and the fast ferry to Seattle.

• 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, sleeps 6
• Waterfront: just a footpath between you and the beach
• Walk to the fast ferry to Seattle's Pier 50
• Renovated kitchen with GE Café appliances
• Central A/C and an electric fireplace

Big windows put Puget Sound in nearly every room: ferries coming and going, marine traffic, passing wildlife and Mt. Rainier on clear days. Guests are often surprised how quiet it is this close to the ferry. Only a pedestrian path separates the house from Saltair beach, and downtown Kingston is a block away.

GETTING HERE & PARKING

The entire house is yours except locked storage spaces, the beverage cooler in the kitchen and the garage. Self check-in with a keypad. Park in the two-car driveway behind the house, reached from the alley. There is no parking in front, since that side is a pedestrian-only path.

Cross the footpath in front of the house to reach Saltair beach. Watch for wildlife and look for moon snail shells. The beach is walkable at low or high tide. A baby gate is installed at the top of the stairs.
