Built in 2019, our home is a two story house on 10 acres of open fields and woodland. We call it a 'cabin', but it's an open, light filled two-bedroom, 2.5-bath house. It sleeps 4-7 with a Queen bed in each of the two bedrooms and a very comfortable pull out memory foam bed in the lounge upstairs, and there is a day bed in the living room.
There's a vegetable garden, a large deck, a hot tub, an outdoor shower in addition to the two bathrooms inside. It is quiet and private yet only a 5-minute drive to Vashon town or to the Seattle Ferry dock, where downtown Seattle is 30 minutes away.
Vashon is a unique and wonderful place: a 14 mile long island that's home to about 12,000 people, with lots of open space, public trails and beaches, some great restaurants, art galleries, performance spaces, farm-stands, and many other things to do including a new pre-digital pin ball play space called Den of Pin.
Seattle is accessible by either a 15 minute car ferry to West Seattle or a 20-minute trip on the foot passenger ferry directly to the downtown Seattle dock next to Pike Place Market. Easy access to all that Seattle has to offer.
This makes an excellent getaway for a group—or even your Table!

Jeanette Bronée | Author, Speaker, and Integrative Mind-Body Coach
Losing someone we love changes everything. It can leave us feeling untethered, questioning who we are and how to move forward. I know that terrain. After losing both of my parents to cancer, I found myself standing in that same space of emptiness, trying to understand how to live again. That experience reshaped my life and set me on the path of helping others heal through loss.
For over twenty years, I’ve worked with people navigating profound change and grief, guiding them to reconnect with care, trust, and meaning after loss.
My approach is gentle, integrative, and rooted in both science and compassion. I’m a certified Integrative Health Professional, Mind-Body Medicine Practitioner, and Mindfulness Meditation Teacher, with additional training in Counseling Facilitation, Felt Sense Focusing, and Hypnotherapy.
Through one-on-one grief coaching, I support you in tending to the physical, emotional, and spiritual impact of loss — helping you find small, steady ways to breathe again, rebuild trust in life, and discover who you are becoming in the aftermath of loss.
As the author of The Self-Care Mindset®, my belief is that healing begins with care — not just for the person we lost, but for the one we are learning to be now.

"Grief is not a problem to fix, it is an experience to tend to" -Megan Devine
This is the invitation we will explore in our virtual session, inviting curiosity and compassion each moment of the way as we tend to grief. Grief tending offers us a place to gently land, a moment to pause and rest in the thresholds between endings and beginnings. To explore and share your truth in these liminal spaces, while being held with compassion, curiosity and care. To consider and invite in what is most supportive and nourishing in both your moments of solitude and moments of community care. Thresholds are more than doorways; they are pathways of connection and an invitation to explore what form our love wants to express in this new world.
As grief is a deeply personal journey, the care and tending that each of us needs will be as unique as our grief and love. You are not alone as you walk with your grief and these sessions offer compassionate conversations to explore how you might tend to your grief, create a meaningful life in this new world, and anything else that feels important to turn toward.
This is a 60 minute, virtual session offered through Zoom. You can learn more about compassionate grief care and Jennifer Martin on her website: www.JenniferJanelle.com

Two fine, organic French wines donated by Alpenglow Lounge (@alpenglowlounge), available to ship anywhere in California.
Hervé Brisson Les Aulnes Champagne Blanc de Blancs (Extra Brut) - A micro-produced Champagne made from 100% Chardonnay. This certified organic grower-producer is a third-generation family estate that produces just 500 cases annually, from vines averaging 40 years old. Low-intervention principles, without fining or filtration, result in a fresh yet structured profile with the warm notes of 10+ months in oak barrels. Brisson's philosophy centers on biodiversity: "I favor all methods based on life. ... Thus, I sow plants to help the soil, I plant hedges to help insects and birds, I limit tillage."
Jean Fournier Bourgogne Côte d'Or - A pinot noir cultivated in the heart of Burgundy's northern winemaking region. This pinot is aged in oak for 12 months then rounded out further in stainless steel tanks. Luscious and fruity, yet full of earthy depth and layered character, it's accessible enough to share for an occasion and complex enough for wine lovers.

Lina Morin
