Visit Vashon Island and relax on this private estate property. Camp near the bluff, overlooking Puget Sound, walk the trail down to the beach and enjoy 1000 ft. of secluded beach. You can camp in the field by the bluff, or in the forest on either side of the driveway. The island boasts great coffee hangouts, galleries, wineries, restaurants (Earthen, The Ruby Brink, The Hardware Store Restaurant), Snapdragon and others. Minglement, the Burton Coffee Stand, and Cafe Olio Vino have great coffee. Thriftway is a great grocery store. The Burton Store is worth a visit if you are coming from the Tacoma/Pt. Defiance ferry as you will pass it on your way to the property. There a galleries, shops and restaurants in the town of Vashon and also in Burton. Vashon Center for the Arts, O-Space and the Chamber of Commerce have events that might be of interest. Bikes, E-bikes, paddle boards and kayaks can be rented from Vashon Adventures and Vashon Bikes.They also rent tents and some camping equipment. Outdoor fires are by permission only. There are sometime burn bans for air quality and/or high fire danger. Generally, fires are allowed AT THE BEACH, below the high tide line, between October 1 and June 15, but there are various reasons they may not be allowed (air quality bans, windy conditions, etc.) Any fire you light must be put out COLD (no steam, no heat) with water and buried with sand before leaving them unattended. You are responsible for any damage or injuries caused by a fire you start, so please be careful! Please note: It is very important that the number of people on site is accurate. Please contact Hipcamp to change the number of people - there currently is no way to do that on the site?! There is an additional charge per person above the base 2 person rate. If for some reason hipcamp doesn't automatically add in this charge, so we will request it separately. It must be paid in full prior to arrival. There is no outdoor music at any time. Quiet hours are 8 pm to 10 am. There is no picnic table or any amenities, but you can fill up water at our barn if needed. DO NOT USE THE WOODS AS A BATHROOM. It is necessary to bring your own latrine. Please clean up after your pet. Dogs must be leashed AT ALL TIMES in the field. If no one is around at the beach, they can be off leash, but leash up if anyone approaches until they pass. Please never leave your dog unattended outside where barking will disturb the peace. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. Looking forward to hosting you!

Walk the forest trails or follow the trail down to our 1000' ft of southern exposure, private beach. Pt. Robinson Lighthouse or Maury Island Marine Park are walking distance away. Roast marshmallow over a beach fire, enjoy amazing sunsets, keep an eye out for humpbacks and Orca! Sea lions, otters and seals swim by. Fish jump and sea birds swoop over the water. Vashon has fabulous restaurants (Earthen, The Ruby Brink, The Hardware Store Restaurant, May's Thai, and more) wine tasting, breweries, galleries, arts performances, and lots of peace and quiet just an hour from Seattle and Tacoma. If you're a UFO buff, check out the Maury Island Incident, which happened right here! Take a look on-line at the Vashon Maury Chamber of Commerce, Vashon Center for the Arts, Vashon Parks District, and O-Space for current "things to do".

Beautiful site, incredibly peaceful and well-maintained. Perfect location for anything you might want to do on Vashon. Also loved that we could stroll to Oscar the Bird Man statue and the lighthouse (public port-o-potties nearby too). We came in a campervan in mid-September and had a blast.

Overall, the site is incredibly gorgeous! We were there on a Thursday night, and it was clear they were going to be having a wedding that weekend. While we were sitting outside enjoying our dinner, they had multiple deliveries to a tent that was just on the other side of the ravine — including someone delivering portable toilet trailers. It wasn’t super private in that sense, but the access to the beach was great. They also advertised a picnic table, which wasn’t at the site when we arrived. I’m not sure if that was moved because of the wedding (they were using most of the field for a parking setup).

The view from the bluff and private beach were wonderful. Unfortunately, there was some partial benches leftover from a wedding in the field and many piles of dog poop from other campers (I cleaned up several and let them know). They mentioned it could be from coyotes, but none were around and I'm quite familiar with them where I grew up as they were always in our fields but they never left anything behind. I made sure to clean up after my two dogs and myself, nothing was left behind. It did not feel as private camping here as I was hoping as the property owners/family were walking through the forest areas and up to almost where I was camping on the bluff on my last morning with no warning. It felt weird and unwelcoming, so I began packing up to leave. This was my first time using Hipcamp but the last time I will stay here.
