The Cottage

Experience Life as a Lighthouse Keeper

Rent this 3-bedroom historic lighhouse keepers cottage on the shores of Puget Sound by the week. Relax and watch sailboats, walk on the beach, fish from the shore, enjoy sunsets and reading in antique rocking chairs from the porch. (Please visit the Rates page for prices by using the menu.)

Because this 1903 cottage, restored and furnished with period furniture, is on the National Historic Register, it is a living museum. So, by staying here you become part of the history of this Washington Landmark.

The cottage and other facilities on the park-like setting grounds are part of the Browns Point Lighthouse property so you and your family, up to six people, will become honorary lightkeepers. As such your “tour of duty” includes requirements to raise and lower the flag, log in weather and shipping traffic, water the surrounding cottage gardens and have the Cottage Museum and History Center open for visitors on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 1-4.

Rentals run from Sunday to Sunday
Minimum two adults - Maximum six people

How to determine what dates are available: Scroll any page on this site down to the bottom. Looking on the left side where the menu is, find the calendar and look for the days of the month that are colored. If you place your mouse arrow over a colored date, it will pop up a little flag telling you that set of colored days is reserved by someone. To view other months of the year, or future years, simply use the arrow to the right of the month to make the calendar change.
