Immerse yourself in the spectacular surroundings of this waterfront home in Hoodsport, where you'll greet each morning with a breathtaking view of the sun rising over Hood Canal. This is a place for quintessential Pacific Northwest experiences - taking out the three provided kayaks, observing bald eagles and otters from the beautiful patio out back, and collecting oysters on the pebbly beach. In fact, the oysters are so plentiful, don't be surprised if you can completely fill the five-gallon bucket up with them each day!
This east-facing home enjoys a private stretch of waterfront on the flat, rocky shores of Hood Canal. There's so much to keep you at home here, but there's also much to explore, from lovely Lake Cushman (nine miles) to the vast network of trails in neighboring Olympic National Forest and Olympic National Park.
The house was seemingly designed for gathering with friends and family, beginning with the expansive waterfront patio. Take your pick of multiple seating vignettes in both sun and shade, pull up a stool for a cold drink at the outdoor bar, and admire the incredible view as you barbecue and dine alfresco.
The interior is a showcase of the natural setting as well, thanks to large picture windows and an open floor plan brimming with sunlight. Whether you're setting up a board game, streaming movies in the living room, or preparing and sitting down to a homemade meal, you'll never lose sight of the water. Of the the three serene bedrooms, one is a primary suite with an attached bunk nook for little kids; another opens directly to the back patio. Central air conditioning, a washer/dryer, and complimentary WiFi are provided as well.
