175 Apartments for Rent with Garages

Referred to primarily as Vashon Island to Washingtonians, and Vashon to local Vashonians, the "Heart of the Sound" also carries the more formal name of Vashon-Maury Island. So, basically, get a "Vashon" in there somewhere, and people will know the place you're talking about. In the year 1792, when the region was originally mapped and named by Captain George Vancouver (then explorer with the British Royal Navy) the largest island was named Vashon after James Vashon, a superior and friend of Vancouver's in the Navy.

Vashon apartments with garages are sometimes more expensive than other options. However, they may make more financial sense in the long run.

Weather, break-ins, and daily struggles to find a space can take a toll financially and physically. Remember that even cities in mild climates experience issues like salt air, tornadoes, hail, falling branches from storms, and other issues.

It’s also possible to score an auto insurance reduction if you park in a garage. Ask your insurance provider about any deals or discounts that could trim money off the cost of your monthly bill.

Before signing a lease, ask the landlord or property manager about any restrictions on garage use. It’s important to know if there are enough spaces for tenants and visitors and what happens if the garage is full. If you’re moving into an apartment inside a home, ask about any conditions on its use and if storage is allowed.
