  WOW—just WOW!!

  This place was absolutely incredible! We can’t say enough about how much we loved our stay! The house had everything we could possibly need— comfy couches, cozy beds, a kitchen stocked with everything we needed for our cooking adventures, and the views… oh my goodness, the views! Whether we were in the kitchen, the bedrooms, or just lounging around, the scenery was breathtaking, and the view of Mt. Rainier was the cherry on top, gorgeous ! The yard was perfectly enclosed for our little pup and the beach was paw-approved which was awesome as that’s not always the case on the Puget Sound ! We took her on several beach walks, and they were nothing short of FANTASTIC! We LOVED the tram ride from the driveway to the house—so fun! We were a little nervous at first, but it turned out to be a total highlight. Even our dog got into it—after her first ride, she was hooked! We would say you wanna ride the tram?? And she would run over there and wait for us to let her in. She’d hop on first every time, ready to go. It was adorable. The hot tub was clean, relaxing and had such epic views. We also did a lot of kayaking and saw so much wildlife from the boats and from the property: beautiful seabirds, huge sea lions, curious harbor seals, and even a few porpoises! Watching the sea lions try to climb onto a nearby floating dock was hilarious, but our favorite were the harbor seals who followed us around like little kayak buddies. You’d stop the kayak, turn around, and there they were—just 15–20 feet away with their little heads popped out of the water. Soooo cool!! And last but definitely not least—Tracey, our amazing host! Thank you so much for sharing this magical place with us. Your hospitality made everything even more special. Can’t wait to visit again sometime.

• A Peaceful, Soul-Filling Escape on the Water – 10/10 Experience

  5/5

  Our recent stay at this beautiful Johnson Point home was nothing short of magical. The house itself is stunning—thoughtfully decorated with tasteful artwork, cozy bedrooms, and a fully stocked kitchen that made it feel like home the moment we arrived. Every space was curated with care, from the comfy swing chairs to the inviting fire pit surrounded by chairs of all sizes.The view of the water was breathtaking, and the private beach access gave us a peaceful connection to nature that’s hard to find. We kayaked, played chess by the fire, grilled steaks, and enjoyed slow mornings and long evenings on the balcony just soaking it all in.This was the first trip our little family (my ex-wife, our son, and I) has taken in years, and it meant the world to us. We laughed, relaxed, bonded deeply, and created memories we’ll treasure for a lifetime.Despite feeling completely tucked away in nature, we were still only 10–15 minutes from grocery stores and anything else we needed. The perfect balance of seclusion and convenience.Communication with the host was effortless—they were kind, responsive, and incredibly helpful from start to finish. We’d recommend this place 10 out of 10 times.Thank you for creating a space that helped us reconnect, recharge, and truly enjoy being together. We can’t wait to come back.

  Beautiful location right on the water! The tram to get to the property was a fun novelty that the kids enjoyed. We even saw orcas from the house. 10/10 would recommend and book again!
