Ballow Anchorage

✨ Hidden gem

Ballow Anchorage sits in Mason County, Washington, tucked into the forested landscapes of the South Puget Sound region where the surrounding waters are framed by dense Pacific Northwest woodland. It's a quiet, off-the-beaten-path spot where you drop the hook and settle into the kind of stillness that's hard to find closer to the main shipping lanes. The anchorage puts you within reach of Mason County's network of inlets and coves, making it a solid base for exploring this lesser-known corner of the Sound.
