About this property

Our property is located in Grapeview Washington on Pickering Passage. The southern part of the Sound is incredibly peaceful and far less crowded. We are about 1.5 hours from Seattle making a perfect get away. You enter through a mature lush forest that leads to our private driveway that opens up to our waterfront home that is situated just above the water. A staircase will lead you down to the bulkhead that you can stage all your beach activities and is another great place to hangout. Enjoy Kayaking, fishing and walks along the beach. The views are majestic and the area is secluded and private. Located less than an hour from amazing hiking trails and the edge of the Olympic National Forest.

The property is truly unique and set in nature with the Sound on one side and acres of mature forest on the other. This property is ideal for people seeking a retreat and will respect nature and the environment. It is a quiet and peaceful place that offers just enough modern amenities. The master bedroom and two guest bedrooms have queen beds and in the fourth room we have a twin over full bunk bed. There is a full bathroom on each level of the home. The top floor has a new spacious deck for outdoor entertaining, newer BBQ and spectacular views and amazing wildlife. We have a private well that provides natures best water, 4k TV, Directv, Blueray disk player, shuffle board, books and so much more to make your trip enjoyable. We have 2 single person sit-in kayaks and 1 two person sit on top kayak available for you to use. We are also near Fair Harbor Marina and venue. If you have a boat, we have our own mooring ball located off our beach that can support up to a 30ft boat.

Because this is our personal family vacation home, we installed higher quality furnishings and decor. The entire lower level of the house has been completely renovated. We have installed quality furniture, beds, linens, newer appliances and kayaks. We have added an AC and heating system to keep you comfortable no matter the weather. In the main living room we have a wood burning fireplace that is perfect for those times when it is chilly.

This is a perfect place to enjoy family, cook, walks in the forest or on the beach, and keeping an eye out for bald eagles, whales that pass through the channel and water sports. We have recently added high speed internet and an additional TV for streaming in the upstairs master.

Amazing property and hosts

This property exceeded my expectations. The views were absolutely fantastic. You are right on the ocean (The puget sound). The bedrooms all had full beds and one single bunk with a full. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything you would need. Including oil and spices. Which is huge because the nearest store was about 15-20 minutes away. The house faces the forest on one side and the ocean on another. Our Host was so friendly and let us reach out about anything we needed. Very responsive and asking us how check in was and how the stay was going. Would give this property 12 stars if I could. You should definitely stay here!

About the host

Hosted by Chris Von Huben

Our primary home is in San Diego CA. We are very fortunate to be able to keep this property in our family, built by our grandfather in the early 60s. Over the past few years we continued to enhance and improve the property. We are sharing this property with guests so we can continue to keep it in our family.

Why they chose this property

The setting of this property is just magical! Sitting just above the water of Pickering Pass, the views are incredible and the rural area is of mature forest opening to the water. Walk down our staircase to our private bulkhead and entrance to our private beach.

What makes this property unique

There is no place better than being right on the water, private beach, kayaks and luxury furnishings. We provide the little things down to the the quality bathroom products and fully stocked kitchen.
