Listing highlights

In West Seattle, near the water taxi

About a 5-min walk to Seacrest Park and the water taxi that takes you to downtown Seattle

A historic cabin in the treetops

An 80-year-old shipbuilder's cabin lofted among the trees with walls of windows facing the canopy

Nature and city, side by side

Guests describe it as a peaceful woodland escape that still feels connected to the city
Come enjoy our Tiny Tipsy Cabin surrounded by trees and yet in the city.

Our private woodland cabin is 150 yards away from the beautiful West Seattle/Alki waterfront & 500 yards from the 10 minute water taxi to downtown Seattle. It features a queen room, sleeper sofa, & kitchenette.

Our 80 year old Tiny Tipsy Cabin is perfect for guests looking for unique beauty and convenience, without all the amenities of a hotel.

NOTES: 25 Steps to House.

The space
* Cozy, rustic, King-size room
* Large claw-foot tub & shower
* Kitchenette w/sink, portable induction cooktop, coffee & tea bar, mini fridge, microwave & basic pots, pans, dishes and silverware
* Full sleeper sofa with sheets in living room

Our 80 year old historic shipbuilder's cabin is on a slight tilt and has running water, electricity, and most modern conveniences(minus Wifi). Lofted up above the forest floor, you may see as many as 80 species of birds (including eagles and peregrine falcons), as well as the odd deer or beaver from the rocking chairs on your front porch!

The Fairmount Gulch is one of Seattle's last preserved river ecosystems, and the lack of pavement means winters can be damp and muddy, so be careful walking up to the cabin. Once inside the sliding glass doors you'll find a living room with walls of windows that look out to the treetops above and the creek below. Our guests enjoy playing with the board games we provide, reading a book on the porch, and soaking in the antique claw-foot tub.

We don't have a TV or Wifi, but we do have the iconic view Downtown Seattle, our famous ferries, and our resident harbor seals just 300 feet away down the private dirt road. Truly a home trapped in time, the Tiny Tipsy Cabin is everything this old harbor town once was, and is steps away from the thriving metropolis Seattle has become. Truly the best of both worlds.

Please Note: Cabin is lofted up among the trees, and requires walking up 25 steps from the parking pad to the front door.

I am a professional host who runs 5 properties, 3 at Stevens Pass(WA), 2 in Seattle. I grew up in California but call the Pacific Northwest my home. My highschool sweetheart, Michael, and I have been married 13 years(phew time flies) and stumbled into real estate and fell in love with Airbnb and unique stays. When we're not at one of our properties, we are taking our 3 kids(aged 5, 2, and 2 months) to the zoo or playground.
