Neighborhoods

This beautiful oceanfront spot is one of the most popular areas to visit when in West Seattle and it's only steps away from the cottage. Jog along the waterfront, sunbathe, play beach volleyball or explore nature in the tidepools. When the sun goes down, bring over some treats and create a little bonfire on the beach.
