The Iconic Union Skyhouse
The best views are undeniably found in the Skyroomm which features a leather chaise sofa, a reading corner, a record player, and some floor cushions for lounging about.
Mornings in the Skyroom are bliss.
The Skyroom has 8 foot sliding doors on three sides. Open them a little (or a lot) for an amazing treetop breeze.
Views of the Hood Canal and Olympic Mountains to the north.

About this property

Iconic Union Skyhouse with Hood Canal views

Iconic, one-of-a-kind 1970's PNW home on Alderbrook Creek with Skyroom views of the Hood Canal and Olympic Mountains. Surround yourself in nature with two levels of wrap-around decks, or walk amongst the treetops on the Skyroom balcony. This one-of-a-kind home sleeps 11, with three bedrooms and 3.5 baths. Perfect for a group retreat, family getaway, or reunion!

The climb to the top of the tower is about 98 steps, depending on where you start your climb. At the top, the Skyroom features 8 foot sliders with views to the north, east, and west. Enjoy views from the Skyroom's wrap-around balcony. There is a half bath just below the Skyroom, so you can enjoy the views as long as you'd like!

Renovated with modern comforts and decor, this showstopping house retains many of the original 1970s fixtures and designs that have been preserved to keep this home as unique as when it was built. At over 2,400 square feet, the Skyhouse features several options for gathering indoors or out. All sleeping spaces have doors, and no bedrooms share walls, allowing for privacy even for large groups.

There are two sleeping spaces on the main level, and two sleeping spaces on the lower level.

A lovely and unique house!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Skyhouse. There is so much space to explore and enjoy in this house! We were in the area for a wedding at the nearby Alderbrook Golf Course, and it this property turned out to be just the right choice. A very clean, well maintained and fun property!

Wonderful experience!

Felt like home, but with an incredible view! Everything you’d need and more. So peaceful and comfortable. We’d love to return in the summer when we can take advantage of the water activities.

Awesome!

Perfect home for a big group! Having the rec room, living room, and large kitchen was great for spreading out and not feeling crowded. The kitchen had everything we needed and more, and there were enough toys for my toddler to stay entertained without being cluttered. Loved the kids book selection since we forgot to pack any! And watching the last light on the mountains from the Sky Room was just incredible. It was a fantastic place to stay, hope we can be back again!

Nest house

We have stayed several times at the Tower House. We love it. It’s very comfortable and well appointed. Just about everything we need is there! The spa is lovely but I almost always forget to bring my suit. Others in the family have enjoyed it. We love to hike the trails up towards the top of the hill and all the way down to the Lodge. It’s a great place to stay in all seasons.

Such a unique home!

We had a team reatreat at the Skyhouse and it was absolutely perfect! The way the home is layed out is perfect for big groups. There are different areas to hang out in so if you have some that want quiet time a little earlier than the rest they can. The view from the tower is so beautiful! There is nothing like it. The owners did a great job with decor and keeping the original time period and essence of the home mixed with a little modern day. The home is well stocked with a full kitchen that has anything you would need to cook your own meals. There were plenty of towels and blankets. We had a great time! The location is within walking distance to the Alderbrook resort. There are trails literally across the street. This is definately a home worth staying in. It's worth every penny!

Hello from the Blackwell family! We live in Olympia, WA (about an hour from the Skyhouse), and love adventuring with our family, especially near landmarks and national parks. We are so excited to share our crazy tower house with you all! Follow the Skyhouse online at @unionskyhouse on Instagram, or find and follow us on Facebook!

Why they chose this property

Don't miss out on an unforgettable stay at an iconic home overlooking the Hood Canal and Olympic Mountains! Great for gatherings (reunions, friend trips, wedding parties, families, retreats) or disconnecting and having space to breathe and soak up the forest surroundings and incredible views.

What makes this property unique

The Skytower is the most unique feature of this home, providing treetop views of the Hood Canal and Olympic Mountains. Some guests, however, hardly use the tower. The rest of the home is well furnished, comfortable, with loads of amenities for the whole family to enjoy!
