I searched for a property with a view and hot tub. This home did not disappoint! Very clean and owner had great communication. My husband and I loved our stay! Highly recommend!
This was our first time in Sequim or the Olympic Peninsula but wanted to be on the water in case we didn’t make it out for a hike. This home was perfect for our quick weekend getaway as a family! The views each morning were beautiful. The kitchen has everything we could think of. My son loved the loft and bath tub, and we’re hoping to come back when it’s a bit warmer to use the jacuzzi. We will definitely be back this spring!
Property was perfect for our get away on the water. House was clean and comfortable for our small group. Kitchen was stocked enough to prepare most meals, and layout was generous for multi person meal prep. View to the water was able to be seen from all rooms. Snd appreciated the side door to the dog area. While it was chilly (December). We did not use the paddle boards/kayaks but would sure to take advantage if there in the warmer months. The water appeared fairly calm and the transition from the stoats to the water was shallow enough.
Great place to relax and enjoying breath taking views of the Puget Sound. Hot tub is ready upon arrival and the hosts have clear instructions on how things work. Dog friendly too! Pretty sure we heard a bobcat growling on our first night here and there’s lots of other wildlife around to see.
This house provided us with such a beautiful, comfortable, and serene place to rest and reconnect. The views are gorgeous, the house pristine, the beds comfortable, the hot tub, deck, and on-suite bathtub excellent places to relax, and the kitchen is a dream. We even loved the dishes! So thankful for such a wonderful place to get away and relax. Everything was excellent. We would love to go back!
We had a wonderful stay. The house has a fantastic view, hot tub, kayaks, and board games. Convenient to get to Sequim, Port Townsend, Port Angeles, and Olympic NP. The owner Michael was very nice and flexible. We brought our dog and unfortunately, he barks a lot when we were out. But Michael let us know and we worked out a solution. Spend 5 nights and had a great time.
This property worked out perfectly for us. The bay views are perfect to wake up to and enjoy during a sunset soak in the hot tub. I believe the property owners live in another dwelling on the property but we never saw them so we felt like we had it to ourselves.
We booked this for our “mini-moon” following a micro wedding in the PNW. It was just what we wanted!
The check-in could have gone better as we did not get our code to enter the house when promised. We went into the nearby town for dinner and our host reached out after we contacted VRBO.
The seals that swim in the inlet were charming. The neighborhood is quiet and requires a car to get around.
We enjoyed our stay. We were able to view a variety of wildlife, bald eagles and sea otters were close by each day.
The house had nice touches of wildlife and nature books with posters of local wildlife on the walls. The owners responded promptly when we had a question.
We would visit again.
This is a lovely house with stunning views. Michal and Echo are wonderful hosts and the house is well-stocked (including fixings for s'mores.) Only complaint is that the soaking tub was out of order during our stay but we very much enjoyed soaking in the hot tub.
This is a nice waterfront getaway that has walking trails right out the front door. It’s a new listing, with the basis on amenities covered, though some room to grow with more comfortable lounging furniture and bed. Also, the home may be more suitable for warmer months as colder weather requires noisy wall heaters to be ON to heat rooms. A bit of a distraction with such a quiet and peaceful view.
We booked the Olympic Forager as a family trip to celebrate my husband's birthday. We changed our minds and left the kid with Grandma and only brought the dog, lol! Although our 10 yr old son would have loved exploring the beach at low tide and all the trails at the park next door, we were thankful to have the time together to re-connect and be adults for the weekend. Just two old farts with our old dog enjoying the beauty and stillness of the place. Best part of the trip was having my husband "draw me a bath" in the luxurious tub:). Also the seafood, such good seafood!
Truly Grateful, The Zantow's
Absolutely beautiful setting and was perfect for our family. Location was close enough to visit all the sights we wanted to experience, yet secluded and quiet. 30 minutes from Port Angeles where we took the ferry to Victoria, BC for an overnight stay (highly recommend). Spent 4 days visiting different locations in Olympic National Park. Although the drive was a bit further coming from Sequim, the Beauty of the location of this VRBO is Well worth the extra miles!! So worth it, we extended our stay!!
One of the highlights of our stay was a visit from a Bald Eagle perched on a branch just off the back patio for 2 hours one morning. Not to mention the daily morning walks on the beach watching all the sea life- every type of crab imaginable, clams, creatures we still have to look up for identification, huge starfish, otters, seals, and all types of birds.
The home was very clean, organized, and well equipped with all of the essentials. Michael and Echo have truly thought of every little detail that you would need, or just enjoy during your stay. Their communication was outstanding as well, and much appreciated!!
We will be back!
We had an awesome stay here - beautiful view, house was well equipped and the owners thought of every little detail down to the s'mores fixins! Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us and we hope to be back to stay another time!
Everything about our stay was lovely. The hosts made the home very inviting, with lots of thought given to comfort and convenience. The view of the water was stunning and the home was beautifully updated. The beds were comfortable and it was so quiet! Truly a relaxing get away.
A wonderful welcome with fresh flowers and pink bubbly for our anniversary! Beautiful setting which provided much needed R&R after daily hikes in the region.

We moved from the California Bay Area to here mid June 2022 for the unmatched natural beauty of the Olympics. We both work in tech and are fortunate to be able to work remotely. We live in the cottage next door so if you have any questions or need any help just let us know! We also have a few more amenities such as waffle machines, garment steamers or printers at the cottage.
