Mystery Bay Farmhouse

This is an early 1900's waterfront farmhouse with lots of character and vintage charm. The glassed-in front porch allows you to kick back and enjoy the picturesque views of Mystery Bay in any weather. We have WiFi, a DVDs and a player, and three wonderful parks close by (two within one mile). We are 16 miles from the beautiful seaport city of Port Townsend- known for music, dining, art galleries, parks, and we are 30 minutes from the 7 Cedars Casino. Beautiful hiking trails on & off island. The space This house has two bedrooms with queen beds- there is *also* a sunny bonus room that has a nice twin bed. Of all the sleeping areas- this small room actually has the best view- and a quarter-bathroom. It is separated from the main house by the entry hall, so it is also the most private. The kitchen comes stocked with, hopefully everything you might need to cook with including corkscrews and both a drip coffee maker and an espresso maker. The Nordland General Store is right next door and is now open after being closed for three years because of a fire. Many guests have commented on how convenient it is to walk next door when they need something. Fort Flagler State Park is about 2-1/2 miles away, and is the home of Olympic Kayak Tours (and Kayak Rentals). East Beach Park and Mystery Bay Park are each less than a mile away. East Beach park does not require a WA Discover Pass and is one of the nicest beaches around for walking and playing in the sand. Guest access All of the house and yard is available for your use except for the attic. I do offer free laundry service of two (or maybe even three) loads for guests staying over three days. Other things to note I have a scavenger hunt with clues for the kids, with a small prize at the end. The kids love it. They also enjoy going up the driveway a very short distance to pet the goats from the goat farm that are normally in the (fenced) field next to the road. When this house was built the average height of a man was 5'4". Even though the ceilings are 9' the doors to the bathrooms and pantry are 5'11. So if you are taller than that you will have to duck. This house is wonderful- with awesome views, nearby parks, and Olympic Kayak Rentals and Tours just 2-1/2 miles away. Mystery Bay Park is less than a mile away and has a wonderful dock for mooring boats. While I want my guests to have a vacation they will always remember and want to come back to, I also need to keep my wonderful neighbors happy. Our closest neighbor is a nurse who often has to be up early- so If you are out by the fire late, or return late we would appreciate you keeping the volume down.
