Year round waterfront getaway on Puget Sound, 22 minutes to West Olympia. Children welcome. Pet friendly. Complimentary kayaks.

The views of fir, cedar, and madrone trees are backed by the shimmering waters of Puget Sound, jumping salmon, herons, eagle, and ducks to entertain you at.

Two Herons Cottage is a charming, quintessential beach cottage located only 22 minutes from West Olympia on a beautiful Puget Sound property near Kamilche Point . . . . It is a great spot to stay while on a business trip, a family getaway, or one for romance, privacy and relaxation. Enjoy the large grassy lawn, sitting areas near the water, and a big deck right off Two Herons Cottage. There is also an upper deck off the master bedroom. It is the spot to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning.

The location is perfect for a long stay with day trips to Washington beaches, Olympia, a ferry ride to Seattle, a drive up Puget Sound stopping in small fishing villages along the way to Port Townsend, or Lake Quinalt where you can swim or rent a boat, Olympic National Park with Hurricane Ridge and Hoh Rain Forest.

Many guests just enjoy the property, relax, and take in the views. Little Creek Casino is 4 miles away, and plenty of great shops, restaurants, Olympia’s historic district, Washington’s State Capital, galleries, and museums are just over 20 minutes away.

You can cook some meals at home. The kitchen is well equipped. Taylor Shellfish retail outlet is a few mile away where you can pick up fresh clams, mussels and oysters for your meal. There are also clams and oysters right on your beach.

You’ll be planning your next trip to Two Herons Cottage before you leave!
