Welcome to Point Robinson Park's two historic Keeper's Quarters! (Photo by Terry Behal)
A Brief History
Point Robinson Park is considered to be one of the jewels of Vashon Island. The Island's first fog signal was built here in 1885, along with Quarters A, a barn and a chicken coop. Quarters B was constructed in 1908, and the oil house was added in 1913. The Point Robinson Lighthouse was built in 1914 by the U.S. Bureau of Lighthouses and is still a working lighthouse. You can see the Fresnel lens in action during one of Captain Wubbold's (USCG, ret.) insightful lighthouse tours.
Vashon Park District began leasing (at no fee) the property from the U.S. Coast Guard in 1997. The buildings were in serious need of maintenance, but with the help of the volunteer group, The Keepers of Point Robinson, they all have been renovated, and the two historic Keepers' Quarters are now vacation rentals. The income from these rentals helps us maintain the park. The Keepers operate a small gift shop on the grounds that provides funding for their contribution to the park's upkeep.
It's an extraordinary setting where friends and families come to relax and play. Both houses are privately fenced and offer cozy porches from which to watch the world float by. Kids love building forts on the beach, and it's a perfect place to fly kites, watch cargo ships steam past, and occasionally see the Orca whales swim surprisingly close to shore. We hope you'll stay with us. It really is amazing.
Renting the Houses
