Sound Retreat

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

With a beautiful waterfront position overlooking an inlet of Puget Sound, this home in Shelton is a place to relax and unwind. You'll have three levels of decking with a view of the water, access to a dock that's shared with a neighbor, and two kayaks to take out on the sound each morning.

The front of this property is shaded by evergreens and the rear open to the water's edge, with stairs leading down to the pebbly shore and a ramp connecting to the shared dock. You can begin each morning here, with a quiet paddle on the water and a cup of coffee enjoyed on the lower-level dining deck, the main-level deck off the living room, or the balcony off the main bedroom upstairs.

Inside, you'll find a casual kitchen with full-size appliances and a two-sided breakfast bar with seating for four. There's a gas grill on the deck to assist with meal preparation, a washer/dryer to refresh the day's damp clothes as you eat, and a wood-burning stove to warm you as you read or play games in the living room. There's also a Netflix-equipped flatscreen TV upstairs in the loft for movie nights.

Could be cute cabin on the cove
This is a very small but cute cabin in a cove just across from Harstene Island. It is a take on shabby chic but misses on comfort. The furnishing were once very nice but are simply too old and uncomfortable now. No good seat in the house. The patio furniture was a better option for comfort. Sadly, a cat had it's way with this little house at some point and after the third day the smell was no longer masked by the cleaning. The carpet upstairs was riddled with stains. It was a bit of a disappointment, really. With some new carpet and a few small upgrades, this cabin would be a repeat destination. As is, I'd give it 2.5 stars. 😕

Too dirty to stay
Wanted to love this place but we did not stay. Once we walked the house and saw the state of stains, disrepair and discomfort we immediately searched for somewhere else to go and left. Would be good for access to water but not a place to relax and celebrate.

Last minute code
We had no choice but to head out from Tacoma with our baby still not knowing how to get into the house on our day of arrival. We use T-Mobile which has modest to poor service in rural areas so it was not reassuring! I was ready to book a motel in Shelton if we had to. Standing in front of the door at 4:30 we got a text with the code. I guess they had my email address wrong! Whew! It was a very nice stay after that.
