About this property

Water Front Retreat on Hood Canal with Hot Tub

Whether you are enjoying the activities of Hood Canal from the hot tub or relax in the spa master bathroom, you will feel cozy in this home with radiant heated floors and fireplace. If you enjoy nature and want to experience a true gem of the Pacific Northwest, this is a wonderful place to rest your head. There is a chef's kitchen for you to make your stay comfortable and memorable. Solar panels and back-up generator supply the house, rain or shine.

The property is located in a residential neighborhood right on the bank of Hood Canal and is the perfect place for those seeking a break from busy city life. This is a quiet community, and we ask that guests respect the community's privacy and quiet hours.

This fully furnished 2 bed/2 bath waterfront house will comfortably sleep up to 6 guests (max 4 adults). The master bedroom suite on the upper floor features a king size bed, stunning water views from the balcony, and spa-like bathroom. There is also an office with a sleeper sofa. Note that there is a hallway, but no door separating the master bedroom from the office, or the upstairs level from the main floor. On the main floor you will find another bedroom with a bunk bed and another bathroom. There is also a separate sun room and laundry room. The dining room provides a comfortable space for your entire party to enjoy meals or play board games, while enjoying views of the beautiful Pacific Northwest. The living room is furnished with comfortable seating, flat screen TV, and gas fireplace. The kitchen includes gas stove, refrigerator/freezer with water filter, ice maker, and soda stream, coffee station (coffee grinder and drip coffee maker; coffee beans, sugar, and creamer are provided), KitchenAid mixer, Instant Pot, kettle, microwave, and toaster oven. Of course, there are plenty of pots and pans, utensils, and dishes.

Rain or shine, enjoy the backyard with outdoor kitchen (BBQ, refrigerator, etc.), fire pit, hot tub, and outdoor shower! Private stairs lead to the beach. Please note that beaches here are private, so please stay close to the property. This is the perfect place to watch for marine life, and it is a paradise for bird watchers!

There is excellent Wifi throughout the property.

There is onsite parking for 2 cars. Because we are on a septic system, flush only toilet paper, and please limit the amount. A Ring camera is installed near the driveway for outdoor video surveillance and security.

You are welcome to explore our private tideland (i.e., beach behind the property) and public beaches in the area, outside of the community. Please note that HOA rules and insurance limitations stipulate that community amenities (including playground, community beach, boat dock, and boat ramp) are not available to our guests. Also, exploring beyond the beach that is within our property boundaries results in trespassing on a neighbor's property and is strictly prohibited. State Parks in the area provide for better opportunities to explore and play.

We provide 2 adult and 2 youth kayaks with life vests and paddles for guest use. Please use at your own risk and consider your experience, abilities, tidal patterns and weather, knowing that it can change rapidly in Hood Canal.

This property requires a $300 security deposit. It will be collected separately by the property prior to your arrival or at check-in.

Delicious apple trees in front, and pears in the back. Finest hot tub I've ever been in. Delightful neighbors. And there's an exercise gym in the kayak storage area.

Paradise on the water

Great location with amazing relaxing views. Traveling up from California the house has ALL the amenities and little things needed that most B & B's do not supply. The kids had a great time and we'll be back for sure.

Pristine ease on the water's edge

This house is refined but warm-I could easily see it being an oasis in fall and winter. You want for nothing, the hosts have fully equipped the kitchen and bedrooms for your stay. My family visited in summer so we were able to enjoy the water, yard and included kayaks! the nice cement steps lead directly into the water during high tide and serve as a perfect sitting area for the entire day. The beach itself is small but full of beautiful shells and sea life. Thanks for a wonderful getaway!

Wedding guest stay

We had a friend's wedding at Hama Hama, this home was great location, small community, nice being on the water sitting on the deck enjoying the view and the sun. Kitchen well equipped, nice to have the creamer for coffee! Soda water in the built in water dispenser in the fridge! Comfy beds, easy to unlock door

A lovely, quiet location and property,

This was a lovely place to stay for a few days. If you want somewhere that has almost everything you need and is in a quiet and serene place, this is a wonderful place to stay. The hosts were very communicative and the pictures show the place exactly how it is. We did lots of research to find the place to stay for our vacation and we are so thankful that this house was available for our dates.

Hood Canal Serenity

What a gem! The hosts were super responsive and attentive. The house is beautiful and very comfortable. The views of the Hood Canal are beautiful and I loved that I could launch my kayak from the end of the yard. I would love to come back here.

Absolutely Breathtaking

This place was absolutely breathtaking! We booked this house for the last leg of our stay in Washington, and just wanted to stay at the property the entire time. My kids loved the hot tub and searching for crabs at low tide. We loved all the details of this house, so much to see while inside and outside the house. Beds were comfortable, shower immaculate and kitchen was fun to cook in. Hosts were very helpful and responsive to any questions. Highly recommended!

Great Adventure Spot

We had a very comfortable stay! The house was perfect and provided everything we needed and more. We visited the Olympic National Park, Mt Rainier, kayaked a little, enjoyed a dip in the cool water at the canal, and enjoyed the hot tub for our semi sore muscles after all the hiking! The outdoor kitchen area was put to use as well as the amazing indoor kitchen! The view was spectacular!

Olympic NP visit

We were looking for a comfortable base for a trip to Olympic National Park and didn't know anything about the area. We came across this property and the description/price seemed a good fit for our family of four. We arrived late and had some challenges accessing the property, but the owner was super responsive and helpful. The Olympic Peninsula is absolutely breathtaking. We jammed in a lot during our short stay and unfortunately didn't get to spend as much time at the house which is disappointing. The house and property are fantastic. Super comfortable house and stunning location. Wish we could have spent some time paddling on the canal, but wasn't meant to be. Maybe a follow up visit we can take more advantage of what the house/property has to offer. Really enjoyed our short visit.

Wonderful!

This house is beautiful, comfortable, and clean! We stayed for four nights and didn't want to leave. We would spend our days exploring the area or hiking (there are many close trails close by). We would spend our evenings relaxing in the hot tub and sitting off the water sipping wine while watching the birds and harbor seals. The hosts left us a wonderful welcome basket with wine and snacks, which was so thoughtful and nice. They were quick to answer questions and very helpful. We hope to come back again some day!
