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.

Thanksgiving visit
This is out third time renting this property. We love it here, it is our home away from home. The house is very cozy and always clean. The kitchen has everything needed to cook. The views are amazing. Karol is a great host and replies quickly to any questions we have. We will be back!

This place was fantastic. It's right on the water. We saw 5 otters and 10 seals from the living room. Sunsets were gorgeous. Our boy loved it and still talks about it.

Comfort on Hood Canal
My wife and I stayed for three nights in early June. The cottage was spotlessly clean and beautifully furnished with everything we needed. Expansive views of the Olympic range were enjoyed, sea otters fed on the changing tide. We always cook our meals so finding a very well equipped kitchen was great. There was more than enough room for the two of us but the cottage could comfortably acommodate four.

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!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Sea Breeze Cottage. The cottage was extremely clean and well appointed. The views outside almost all the windows looked onto the water and beach. Karl was very responsive and clearly wanted us to have a great get away, which we did!
