Beautiful home on a beautiful island with so many amazing amenities. Our favorite was the hot tub after long days of exploring the Olympic National Park and the surrounding nature. The best part about this trip was proposing to my fiancée while on this trip. Excited to return in the future and enjoy the space once again. Thank you so much for the hospitality and letting us stay in your beautiful home!

What a beautiful peaceful oasis! Very quiet and relaxing with picturesque waterfront views. Saw several bald eagles flying overhead during my stay. The sunsets were spectacular. Unit was clean and well stocked all the amenities including a hot tub and fire pit. Bed very comfy and slept well. The owner is a very talented photographer and her gorgeous artwork is displayed throughout. She was very kind and checked in to make sure I had everything I needed. I really enjoyed my time here and would highly recommend!

Our host was amazing and incredibly sweet. She surprised us with a basket full of snacks, which had never happened to us before and was such a thoughtful touch. On top of that, the place was very clean and absolutely beautiful. The views in the mornings were breathtaking, all the way through sunset and was a great touch for our honeymoon cause my wife loved it so much. This place is truly amazing, and I will definitely be booking it again for my wife and me when I come back from Army basic training.

The views from the outdoor seating area are top notch. Looking out across the sound every night at sunset was the perfect way to end the day. This was the perfect spot for our stay. Birds and deer every morning in the yard and on our way off and on the island as well. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for our trip everything was perfect.
