Regularly scheduled service is provided by the Washington State Ferry System, with mainland loading taking place at Fauntleroy in Seattle, Point Defiance in Tacoma, and Southworth on the Olympic Peninsula.
  From the North end of Vashon Island: (Driving time: 15-20 minutes) Boats landing here leave the mainland from Fauntleroy in West Seattle or from Southworth on the Olympic Peninsula. Follow the main road left, up the hill, and through the town of Vashon. Turn left onto SW 204th. (The Sound Food Restaurant is on this corner.) After about 1/4 mile, the road forks; stay to the left. The road winds down to the water and sweeps right following Tramp Harbor. You'll pass the county fishing dock and a country store on your right and then come to a stop sign. Go straight at the stop; this is Dockton Road. See directions below.
  From the South end of Vashon Island: Boats landing here leave the mainland from Point Defiance in Tacoma. Turn left as you leave the ferry and follow the main road to the town of Burton. Right after the stop sign, you'll see the Edson House on your left. Just north of Burton, you will cross the Judd Creek bridge and turn right on SW 225th, Quartermaster Drive. Signs point to Maury Island and Dockton. Turn right at the stop sign and you'll be on Dockton Road. See directions below.
  From Dockton Road: Up the road you'll see a Gas Station and KIRO radio as the road bends to the left. Next comes a fork in the road. Take the sweep to the right. You'll pass more radio towers and the Vashon Island Golf and Country Club on your left. Turn left on SW 248th, just past the golf course. Follow SW 248th 2 miles up the hill until it makes a 90-degree bend and you have arrived at The Swallow's Nest...cottages are blue with white and black trim.
