Birdwatch Cottage

BirdWatch Cottage is a self contained guest cottage on the South end of Bainbridge Island overlooking Rich Passage on the Puget Sound. Perfect for a weekend or week long getaway. The cottage is set amidst an “English” garden which is in full bloom in the Summer months. The Seattle ferry terminal and downtown Winslow is a 10 min. drive. Nearby restaurants are a short 3/4 mile walk away. THERE IS NO SMOKING, VAPING OR CANDLE BURNING OF ANY KIND IN THE COTTAGE OR ON THE PROPERTY!

The space
The stand alone cottage is approx. 450 sq. ft. with a vaulted ceiling, wood flooring and a newly renovated bathroom (2017) with tub/shower and floor heat. Sleeping for 3 with a queen bed and a sofa bed in the Living area. Sleeping area can be closed off from sitting/living area with bi-fold doors. A kitchenette is provided with a microwave, toaster, coffee maker, hot water kettle, coffee & teas and a mini fridge that is stocked with bottled waters, yogurts & cream. A selection of books, magazines and games are provided for guests enjoyment.

Guest access
Guests can enjoy the private porch overlooking the garden. Lounge chairs and a small bistro table are provided for morning coffee or tea or wine in the evening. Guests are welcome to wander in the fenced in garden area as they please. You may even see some of the several species of native birds that often visit the garden. My husband and I live in the main house on the property and I am always available to answer questions. I am happy to assist in anyway I can otherwise I will always respect your privacy. Feel free to text or call me if you need assistance.

Other things to note
Please park in the designated parking area – backing in is suggested for the ease of exiting from our private driveway. If you plan to come in two cars please let us know ahead of time as we need to plan for an extra vehicle – our driveway has limited space. Another thing to note is our cottage is approx. 200 ft above sea level so if you plan to walk to nearby areas you will have to walk down & back up the gradual grade change.
