Notes
Donations: We care about the ocean + love sharing the beautiful Puget Sound with our guests! For every visit, we’re pleased to donate a % to nonprofits protecting our oceans (Oceana) + housing young girls (The Agape House). Design: The elevated beach house getaway is designed and curated by DMD Co-Owner Sara, Chief Designer of Rapha Designs, with the intent of creating a feeling of being truly welcomed and promoting a sense of holistic rest, comfort and refreshing. Beach Access: Please note: In order to respect our beloved neighbors and the state ordinance, *please only walk in front of our home and in the direction of pier* (about 400 feet of beach). House Access: The home is set in a tranquil setting and accessed via an almost entirely bistro lit path/steps (as photographed) exclusively.
