One of the most unique properties on Bainbridge Island. This rustic log cabin is the perfect writer’s retreat or family adventure! It was originally built in the 1930’s and barged to its current location in October 1962 in the middle of Seattle’s only hurricane! Located on the west side of Bainbridge Island just feet from the beach, it has an incredible stone fireplace, fully appointed kitchen, and new washer/dryer. The Cabin sleeps 8 with a primary bedroom and ensuite, an alcove bedroom with a queen bed and a separate loft that sleeps 4 with two twins and a double bed. It also has a second bathroom. Its expansive wraparound deck lets you enjoy fantastic views of the Olympics and Port Orchard Bay. Watch eagles and Osprey soar above, deer nibbling in the gardens or see the occasional seals, sea lions or otters frolicking in the water.
Ready to take a walk on the beach? You can head right towards Battle Point or left towards Fletcher Bay. If the tide is out head down to “The Big Rock” and see amazing sea life living on it. Weather permitting, paddleboards, kayaks, canoes, or your favorite floating devices can be launched from the private ramp. Bundle up and break out the smores to gather around the private outdoor beachside firepit. Sadly, clam digging is no longer allowed due to biotoxins affecting butter and varnish clams.
