This getaway has the luxuries of home. Perfectly secluded, on the banks of a river in the heart of the Hood Canal. You'll enjoy a well-stocked kitchen, blankets & pillows galore, games & puzzles. Even bidets and a hot tub, it's all here! Fiber internet keeps you connected, and a Generac keeps you on, even when the power is out in the area. Room for everyone with 5 comfy beds and 2 full baths. Huge lawn on the river for your own paradise. NO BIG PARTIES. This is a quiet neighborhood. This is actually our beloved family "cabin," which is why it feels so homey. We love to gather with our friends and family, cook great meals, hunker down to watch movies or play games. As such, it has everything you need to be comfortable, and then some. Our home is a great homebase for any Hood Canal or Olympic National Park adventure. It's all an easy drive away. Surrounded by trees with private access to the river, we always feel totally "away from it all" here. There is a small building at the front of the property that is being converted into a studio in 2024. It is possible that you can rent it for an additional fee, or that we will be staying in it during your stay. In which case we would let you know, and not bother you, but would be able to answer any questions you have. I made a guidebook, that you should be able to see, with recommendations for food and hikes and everything else. But you can also just message me any time and I'll help you find what you're looking for. (Except inner peace and meaning and stuff, I'm not a magician.) PLEASE CLICK ON THE PHOTOS for detailed descriptions of what you can expect. The main house is all yours! There's a small studio at the front of our property that we sometimes stay in when guests are in the main house. But not always, and we'll let you know if we plan to be there. The carport is there for you to use, but the garage is off limits (and not easily accessible from the house anyway.) We most likely won't be around, but sometimes we are staying in the little studio at the front of the property that is being remodeled in early 2024. If we're there, we're happy to answer any questions for you. If we're not, then we're just a quick message away. We have plenty of friends in the neighborhood if there's an actual emergency. The Olympic Canal Tracts is a private community on the Hood Canal, nestled minutes from the Olympic National Park. This is a residential neighborhood, so PLEASE, NO LOUD PARTIES! Please take our neighbors into consideration. You definitely need a car to get here, and get around here. We have ample parking, but in order to take advantage of all the outdoor activities around here, you need a car. The house itself is decked out and cozy as can be. But you are still in the woods in a remote rural area, so every now and then - though rarely - the power goes out. Mason County PUD is super-fast at restoring it and it's never been out for more than an hour since we've had the place. We do have a Generac standby generator which will go on and off immediately. But it doesn't operate the HVAC or the hot tub. The wood stove, and a billion blankets all over the house, will keep you warm, and everything else will still work. We do have blazing fast fiber internet there, so you can stream movies and have a Zoom work call all at the same time. Your phone should work on wi-fi calling there, as there is no cell signal down there at all. The TVs are logged into just about all the major streaming services. There is a user profile called "cabin," just use that one. Please don't log us out.
