About this property
Barnacle Hill Olympic Beach Cabin on the Strait of Juan De Fuca
Summary:
Quaint and Rustic Beachfront Cabin
The Space:
This one room rustic cabin that has a small living/dining area, kitchen, bathroom and shower. There is no electricity in the cabin but all appliances (oven and refrigerator) and lights are powered via propane. There are 2 beds. One queen mattress and a full size sleeper sofa. Outside the windows from where you sit to drink your coffee, display a wonderful view of the Strait. Inside, snuggle in and enjoy the beautiful glowing flames and warmth of the propane fire stove. Relax on the beach or bring your boat for some of the best fishing and crabbing in the Pacific NW.
Whiskey Creek Beach NW has exquisite views of the Straight of Juan De Fuca. The Codfish Cottage cabin is situated only a few feet from the beautiful pebble beach with unobstructed views of the Canadian Cascades.
Located just 25 minutes outside Port Angeles, our guests can enjoy the serenity and beauty of the Olympic Peninsula with easy access to town and some of the best hiking, hunting, fishing and exploring you will ever find. There is so much to do in and around the Olympic National Forest, so take your time and enjoy your stay!
Nearby Olympic National Park entrances like the Sol Duc, Hurricane Ridge, Hoh Rain Forest, Cape Flattery make this location an excellent "base camp" from which you can explore the Olympic Peninsula and towns like Forks, Neah Bay and beaches like Shi Shi Beach and Hobuck Beach. Explore the parks, walk the rivers (Dungeness, Elwha and many more), kayak on Lake Crescent or drop right in the Strait from our private boat ramp. During the Winter and Fall, enjoy the true nature of the Pacific Northwest: observe the high tides, storm surges and occasional dense marine fog from the comfort of your cozy cabin. You are going to love this place!

Perfect for us with location right at water edge. Good for 2 and dog but would be tight for more. Cozy cabin. Heater worked well. Bed good. Shower good. No fenced area for dog but nice to walk along the shore. Other cabins have porch on water side. Ours was still nice. Windows a little drafty but imagine mostly used in summer months. Stores are not real close so plan ahead. Recommend
Loved listening to the waves crashing and watching the fireplace flames as I drifted off to sleep. The view of the Strait of Juan De Fuca is incomparable and the host/owner Rachael was super responsive and helpful. Highly recommended!
This place was absolutely magical! The cabin was perfect, as advertised, cozy with comforts and right on the water. Rachel made check in and check out a breeze. We will definitely be back!
We truly enjoyed staying here. My husband loves to fish and this place reminded him of a fisherman’s cabin but with a more elegant and relaxing Vibe. Easy checkin and the surrounding area was amazing. It was warm and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
Great little spot tucked on a beautiful beach. Stayed warm all night. Make sure to bring any snacks etc you may want for your stay and you will be set!
So incredibly beautiful. Clean, coffee press with coffee was a plus. Kitchen has everything we needed to cook. Impressive and a perfect get away. Clean and comfortable!
Great location as listed, the Barnacle Hill hut had all the essentials you'd expect of a hotel room. Water was always hot, room comfortable temp. Only thing would be better is screen's on the window's and a screen door so you can keep air flowing through at night without bugs.
This cabin was the surprise hit of our entire trip. I am not exaggerating when I say it will be one of our all time favorite life experiences. The beautiful location, the privacy, and the ocean views out the huge picture windows are what made this stay a pinnacle experience. The rustic nature of the cabin with its distressed wood, fireplace heater, and kerosene lamp made us feel like we had stepped out of real life for a time and could truly relax and unplug. Yet it still had enough modern conveniences to keep us comfortable such as a gas stove and oven, French press, provided coffee grounds and cream & sugar, cooking utensils and dishes, wifi, and outlets to charge our phones. They even provided cooking oil and shampoo in the shower! The instant water heater worked very well and you could have very hot water as long as you wanted. The living area was very comfortable and we definitely took advantage of the extra blankets on those chilly ocean nights. We did have to close the curtains on all but the ocean-facing windows due to this building being in a complex/resort. But once the curtains were shut you could have complete privacy. The only things that were not clear from the listing were that there are no rooms; it’s all one big room like a studio apartment would be. The other thing we misunderstood from the listing was the distance to the water. We thought this cabin was right on the water but it was actually up the hill about 40 yards. Overall an amazing experience!!!

Blissful relaxation at Whiskey Creek Beach in the Barnacle Hill Cabin
Super cute waterfront cabins at reasonable prices. They take a while to get to, going down long dirt roads rather far from the beaten path, but that's half of the appeal right there. We spent three days of our Honeymoon at Barnacle Hill and loved every minute of it.
The cabin (and the four others similar to is on the property) overlook the sound and have plenty of individual amenities for each cabin. Although there are five cabins in close proximity, they all have a decent degree of privacy, with this one being the most private as it is set back from the other four by a bit. This cabin had a wood burning stove for the interior heat, and had plenty of pre-chopped firewood at the ready. The Wood stove takes some getting used to, and by the second day we were able to figure out how to make it toasty without being crazy hot. The water heater is also run off of the stove, which we were never able to get working right. Propane cook top and a fridge are older but perfectly functional. There is a lovely little fire pit just outside the cabin as well.
Beautiful rocky beaches just feet away, with plenty of places to explore during lower tides. Have a quick-ish drive over to Sieku to pick up some amazing fresh caught fish and enjoy the town's Co-Op, or stop in Port Angeles on your way over to pick up some supplies. This is an absolutely perfect spot for the individual or small family that is willing to put a bit of effort into their vacation. You have to cook, build a fire if you want heat, plan ahead a bit as there is very little right around the property. The town of Joyce about 5 miles away has a interesting general store for anything last minute.
Basically zero cell phone service, which is a huge bonus in my opinion.
Owners of the property gave us a nice note and bottle of wine when we got in which was very appreciated.
TL;DR
Pick up supplies on the way in, make a real and concentrated effort to turn your brain off for a couple days, be prepared to get your hands a little dirty, and you will be rewarded with blissful relaxation.

We stayed at the Barnacle Hill.
Rustic excellence. Like the view and non electric features and also appreciate the electric lamps as backup.
This is close to the Discovery Trail. We rode from the cabin to the Spruce Railroad
