About this property

Olympic National Park, Hood Canal, & Brinnon Waterfront House

(HOUSE HAS FAST NEW WIFI SERVICE NOW)-------Get away from the big city, the stresses of life, and just kick back and hang on our huge deck and watch as eagles occasionally fly by — so close, it feels like you can touch them. Be sure to bring a camera.

This home are close to many attractions to the Olympic National Park and is a very private, quiet, relaxing retreat. From the deck, guests see nothing but water looking both north and south, where you can view wildlife. Our waterfront home house offers spectacular views with 130 feet of low bank beach on Hood Canal. The location offers a nature’s paradise to view wildlife, on occasion we have seals on our beach and sometimes you can hear and see them sing to each other at night. Home is a cozy older house for a place to totally get away from it all.

Eagles often glide by as close as 50 yards from the deck, great blue herons nest 75 yards away, and sometimes you will see deer hanging in the driveway in total peaceful tranquility. The panoramic water views of the beautiful Hood Canal from our giant wood deck are breathtaking and you are less then five minutes from Mount Walker where you can drive and see views of the Seattle skyline or, if you look in the opposite direction, you will see the beautiful snow peaks of the Olympics Mountain range.

If hiking is your thing, there are hundreds of beautiful trails nearby in the Olympic National Park. Hungry — head south nearby to Brinnon for two high quality restaurant for meals. Then come back home for a sunset kayak in front from the house. Swimming, fishing, and crabbing are possible there as well. It is a total paradise and a place to totally get away from it all.

The fully stocked kitchen, with a glorious view of the deck and water, includes a tiny breakfast bar. Our dining area has a table that seats six. It’s a great time to just kick back and enjoy the view and serenity of this peaceful place. The kitchen opens into the dining room and living room where you will never get tired of the incredible panoramic view of the water. Sunrises are gorgeous and sitting out on the oversized deck at night looking at the full moon’s reflection on the water is a great way to relax at the end of your day.

If you prefer to not cook, The Halfway House nearby is famous for excellent home cooking and homemade pies. Esquire magazine chose the nearby Geoduck Restaurant and Tavern #2 as “Best Bar in America,” and Pleasant Harbor Marina, just down the road, offers superb pizza and sandwiches. To the north is Quilcene, historic Port Townsend and Port Angeles. Hurricane Ridge, out of Port Angeles, is a great place for hiking. Port Townsend is a great spot for antiquing and the Victorian homes are incredible to see.

The home offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The master bedroom has a king-sized bed, flat screen tv with Dish, a dresser and closet. Second bedroom comes with a queen-sized bed, flat tv, and a closet, the third has a queen bed and flat tv, the fourth bedroom is a loft that has a 2 single size beds. There is a flat-screen tv in the living room as well with satellite tv. A king-sized washing machine and dryer are also available.

Bring your fishing poles and check out the many rivers that flow into Hood Canal.
Nearby Dosewallips State Park, with acres of clams and oysters and geoduck, is also a great place to beach comb at low tide. Brinnon is a hiker’s paradise and there are spectacular trails and waterfalls in Brinnon or in the nearby Olympic National Park. Or check out the great mountain biking trails. Divers can see several species of rockfish, octopus and all sorts of crabs. A little further down the road is Mount Walker. A short drive up the mountain at the scenic view area, you will be blown away by the spectacular views of the Olympic Mountain range and turn your head back east and see the City of Seattle skyline. Our house is centrally located on the edge of the Olympic National Park is an ideal location as a base for adventures to explore the park. Olympic National Park covers 922,651 acres of three distinct habitat zones, the alpine region, the coastline and the temperate rain forest. At 1,441 square miles, the park is larger than Rhode Island(1,214 square miles). In 1976, the park was named an International Biosphere Reserve by United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization, the park was made a World Heritage Site by the World Heritage Convention.

Come to our home on Hood Canal and make memories that will last you a lifetime!

Nice and quiet getaway

The house has lots of room, great views, and was very peaceful and quiet. It rained a lot while we were there, which was nice and made the house feel even more cozy. The owner was very responsive and kind.

Nice place great location

Overall nice place with great location. Clean. Only minor thing was lack of a few amenities like few bathroom towels, only one wash cloth, ran out of paper towels, no wine or cocktail glasses. Thats an easy fix. Otherwise it is nice inside and would stay again.

Awesome stay on the Hood Canal!

This was the perfect place for my family to stay while visiting my son in Bremerton! The house was very clean & the check-in/check-out was easy. Beautiful canal views make cooking in the kitchen fun. Access to the canal is steep but worth it to check out the oysters! Highly recommend.

Amazing!

We really loved this property. Breathtaking views, abundant wildlife (sea otters on the deck, many bald eagles, and seals a bit down the beach from us). Loved the deck. House was very comfortable and we had everything we needed! Would love to visit again.

Needs some maintenance

Would stay again great location but needs a little TLC Needs some serious deck maintenance, ground maintenance compared to pictures in advertising is lacking. Safety issue with Mr Coffee, the coffee pot does not turn off automatically. Hot water runs out quickly.

Spacious home with wonderful views

There was plenty of room for five adults to get comfortable in the common areas and cook in the well equipped kitchen. Washington weather was cool and windy, so walks on the beach were chilly, but the views from the kitchen, deck and bathtub made it so staying inside was just fine. We hope to return to this lovely home!

Perfect Family Home

This house was perfect for our family of 6. We have 4 boys ages 2-12. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay! The extra touch was the toys for the kids- we enjoyed all of them! Would come back in a heartbeat!

Peaceful and relaxing with space for all

The home was clean and very peaceful with four rooms /sleeping areas. Watching the bald eagles fly by each morning was a definite highlight. Walking on the beach during low tide to harvest clams and oysters was icing on the cake. Both Ellen and Lou were very helpful and shared information about the local sites and things to do. We plan on returning for another visit.

Great getaway

Well lived-in cozy and comfortable quiet stay. This is my 5th or 6th time staying at this property, and will do so again in the future. Cell reception cuts in and out, but has reliable high speed internet. Kitchen has basic cookware and serving utensils. Deck has a great quiet view of the water. Air hockey and fooseball are great to have.

Fabulous View

Well stocked kitchen. Easy to communicate with the owners. Extremely quiet at all times. Air quality was so bad that we weren’t able to do any sightseeing in the area. Did manage to get up to the Mt Walker Viewpoint but the smoke from the fires was moving in. Would like to rent the property again.

Great house, good location, pictures are outdated

The house overall is great and very spacious. Everything was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The immediate area is beautiful and there are lots of Places to explore within an hour. There are 2.5 bathrooms and three bedrooms plus a loft which worked great for us. The game room area was fun and again overall the actual house was terrific. Our only major complaint is that the lead picture is pretty misleading. The gorgeous view in that picture is much different and more or less blocked now by trees for at least 80% off the deck. The deck also is in a bit of rough shape but still overall the house was wonderful. Not having the view was unfortunate as it was definitely something we were looking forward too but we could walk down to the water still.

Very nice property that needs maintenance

Lovely setting, house is spacious and has lots of light from windows and sliders. The house was clean enough except : The windows were dirty, the tracks for the windows and doors were dirty. The stove and oven were very dirty. I contacted the manager or owner, don't have a name to share here, whoever responded to the text offered to send someone out. We declined just wanted to be sure we weren't "blamed". The deck has rotting wood on the glass railing and on the decking of the deck lots of wood that needs replacing. I would definitely return if these items were fixed! Great location and beautiful view!

Peaceful,remote

House clean and comfortable. Bed in master wonderful (only one we used). Communication with property manager (owner) excellent. Lots of fresh oysters on beach when tide is out. We didn’t use the kayaks as they were tiny sit-on-top type that was more like a paddle board than kayak. House is in a very private setting. Nice deck and deck furniture. This place is remote. 45 minutes to any shopping. House didn’t have any condiments in fridge and few staples. Did have a good amount of savory spices but nothing for any baking. There are a handful of good restaurants within 15-30 minutes. We really enjoyed hiking in the area. Hikes closest to house were in Olympic National Park and were more strenuous but do able. You will need a Washington Discover pass for any other hiking which had a lot more choice of family trails in their State Parks close by. We really enjoyed our stay and everything was great.

Very Disappointed!

The photos of the property are old and very very misleading!! The outside landscape is in desperate need of maintenance. Inside of property needs a very thorough cleaning, beginning with toilets. Outside of refrigerator needs cleaning as does the stove and inside of the oven. Floor around the refrigerator needs cleaning. Amenities.... TV in living room is the only one that has any kind of service provided. The TV's in bedrooms are for playing DVDs only. No air-conditioning in the bedroom off of the "gameroom" or upstairs loft area. Asked the host about it and was told there were fans in the closet to use. Shower in Master bedroom was horrible. Hardly any water pressure. Very outdated! Washer and dryer was located in a bedroom closet and the washer had an odor. Needless to say we did no laundry. Also, space was limited in the bedroom. There were seven towels and three wash cloths. There were five of us. I guess we were expected to share the wash cloths. All in all very disappointed!
