Cozy Up In A Converted Barn At This Peaceful Washington Farm

In this year of choosing local travel and quiet getaways over national trips and large gatherings, it's easy to appreciate all the quiet, small towns and rural areas that make Washington so wonderful. Vashon Island has its own charms you won't find anywhere else in the country, and it just so happens to have a perfectly peaceful farm that welcomes overnight guests. Check out the Wishing Rock Farm retreat.

Vashon Island is a tranquil gem in King County. It's easily accessible from Seattle and Tacoma, but you'll feel like you're in your own world when you're here.

This farm sits kitty-corner to Maury Marine Park, a popular place for hanging out and enjoying view of Mt. Rainier.

The Wishing Rock Farm owners are licensed egg handlers, and they raise quail here in the best possible conditions so they'll produce the best eggs.

They also happen to have a converted barn loft studio on the property, where they welcome overnight guests.

The interior has been fully transformed, although you can certainly tell it was once a barn. That simply adds to its charm.

The floor plan is open in the middle, with the designated rooms and spaces being fully visible.

Relax in the living room with a good book after a long day exploring the island.

While this place doesn't have a TV, it does have WiFi, so you're also free to stream your favorite movie on your laptop while you unwind.

The kitchen is stocked with dishes, silverware, appliances, and all the cooking basics.

Obviously, we recommend fresh quail eggs for breakfast.

Enjoy your meals in the dining area or step outside for a picnic if the weather allows.

These hosts really have thought of everything.

The loft bedroom has a single, cozy queen bed, making this a perfect spot for a couples' getaway.

But thanks to an extra double bed and the couch, you can host four guests here comfortably.

Guests are welcome to walk the paths at this 5-acre property, enjoying the peace and quiet.

If you do decide to venture out, you'll be close to parks, beaches, and some tasty takeout options.

The Wishing Rock Farm Retreat tends to book up months in advance, as it is both charming and affordable ($151 per night). When you're ready, reserve your own special stay on Airbnb.
