About this property

Cozy Beach Retreat-Hood Canal & Olympic Mountain Views

Historically a waterfront restaurant & later a dock caretaker's home, this newly remodeled cottage awaits your arrival. Besides Hood Canal and Olympic Mountain views, you may see dolphins, seals, Great Blue Heron's and Bald Eagles from the comfort of this beach getaway. Bring kayaks or stand-up paddle boards and launch from a beach just steps away.
A well appointed kitchen is a a must, and we've tried to check that box. If crabbing season is open, and you get lucky, there's no better seafood to enjoy right there.

Nearby Activities:
Kitsap Memorial Park—1/4 mile walk north—Playground equipment, grassy field for Frisbee tossing
Salsbury Point County Park—fish from the dock…just north of Hood Canal Bridge (take life jacket…there may be a tidal current)
Undersea Naval Museum www.navalunderseamuseum.org Keyport, WA
Bloedel Reserve www.bloedelreserve.org curated gardens/forest walks on Bainbridge Island
Olympic Outdoor Center-Kayaks in Port Gamble www.olympicoutdoorcenter.com
Poulsbo Downtown nice Norwegian-themed town-lots of shopping and good restaurants.
Kingston (20 min drive)/Port Gamble (8 min drive)-nearby towns
Port Townsend-Very cool town 45 min drive—across the bridge and north
Golf-Port Ludlow, White Horse south of Kingston, Gold Mountain, McCormick Woods, Trophy Lake, Rolling Hills—most about 20-30 minutes drive.
Hiking-see www.Alltrails.com and allow it to recognize your location or choose Poulsbo, Kingston, Hansville, or Silverdale for locations. The Olympic National Park has amazing hiking—Marmot Pass or Mt Townsend for more energetic hikers, Lower Lena Lake slightly easier…drive an hour 45 min for Hurricane Ridge hiking outside of Port Angles for crazy beautiful views & hiking.
Port Townsend Aeromuseum www.ptaeromuseum.com (www.sprucegoosecafe.com ) great food—voted best pies at fly-in airport nationwide by pilot magazine.

About the host

Hosted by Deb Harrington

Host profile image
Living in the Poulsbo area now for 40 years, always on Hood Canal, I love the mountain and water views. Since 1995, I've managed a vacation rental home we owned in Hood River, OR, then beginning in 2015 we transitioned to a VRBO home in Cannon Beach, OR (Vrbo.com/443420) which my wife and I continue to manage when we're not visiting ourselves. I'm experienced knowing expectations of vacation home guests.

As a member of the Lofall Community Corporation (LCC) for 35 years (which owns the home), I volunteered to help select furnishings & amenities and also to manage the vacation rental using VRBO. Two other members spent months doing a great job remodeling the home, and it looks amazing.

I look forward to answering your questions and facilitating your visit to this wonderful Northwest getaway & beachfront cottage.

Why they chose this property

The LCC did a great job remodeling a home previously reserved for a dock caretaker, but realized we had available members to do the upkeep rather than have a permanent resident there. The remodel simply beckons for visitors wanting to escape the city or for those seeking solitude, a good view and a comfy bed. Fast WiFi helps stay connected, if you want to work and just need a change of scenery.

What makes this property unique

Besides the waterfront access for kayaking, you're an easy 20-30 minutes from world class hiking in the Olympic Mountain National Park. I've hiked in Bhutan, Ireland, New Zealand, Switzerland & elsewhere & this backyard opportunity we enjoy is simply hard to beat. I mean it.
