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.

We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and the scenery of the water. I do experience slight limiting mobility and the house was perfect as just 2 small steps to enter house also walk in shower. This really is a wonderful place.

Nice place for down time
We chose this place because it was a good jump-off location for the things we wanted to do in North Kitsap and Jefferson County. Modest and clean, the kitchen is well-appointed with utensils and appliances, with laundry onsite. All on one level. For the mobility-challenged, there are only 3-4 steps to climb to enter the house. The deck out back is easily accessible. Nice place to kick back and do a little bird and Canal watching. Restful. Thanks Karl!

Everything was great at this property. I didn't realize it was right on the water in a little community. Perfect, I took my paddle board and launched off the beach. Magically quiet and dark.

Weekend getaway
We were in town for a quick anniversary celebration, this property was perfect. Right on the water and very comfortable. It’s such a cute little cottage. The host was very accommodating and easy to work with. Checkin was a breeze. We loved the ripe blackberries right in the back yard and waking up to the sound of waves was amazing. It looked like the property was recently renovated, new linens, fresh paint, very comfortable beds. It was well equipped with everything we needed (except an iron but we managed without that). Overall this is a 5 star stay and we will be staying again!

Perfect Getaway
Beautifully appointed property with fantastic views of the water tucked along a private beach. This place is perfect for 2-4 people. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Communication from the owner was clear and prompt. My Mom and I enjoyed visiting nearby Poulsbo as well as Port Townsend which is a short 45 minute drive away. Highly recommend!

Loved it
Super neat house with a great feel. When the mountains are out the views are unbeatable! You're surrounded by water on 3 sides so there are water views from pretty much every window. The area was very quiet and peaceful. Only a couple cars came by (that we saw) to access the dock. We didn't end up using the beach because we were out doing other things but it looked like a nice little area with sand, a fire pit, and picnic table.
