Come back and relax at the oversized deck overlooking the ocean, hear the wave crashing the shore, enjoy the most mesmerizing sunset. If you are lucky, whales will put up a show for you too! It is a truly unforgettable family experience.

★Outdoor★
I can never get enough of the view in the backyard. Nature offers different perspectives of the beautiful Sound and Mt. Olympia at different seasons of the year and at different times of a day. Sitting on the Adirondack chairs beside the gas firepit, or even doing Yoga on the large private deck and watching your pets running around in this fully fenced backyard. Enjoy the moment!

The front yard is quite sizable and has a little garden with some rock features by our creative landscaper.

By the way, we provide a great Weber grill to cook your perfect meal!

★Driveway and Parking★
There is enough space for 3 cars in front of the house. If you have more than 3 cars, there is additional space beside the road you could park on. The driveway is winding and a bit narrow. Though we drive pickup trucks through all the time, but please use plenty of caution and drive slowly on the driveway.

★Kids | Babies★
The house is family friendly. There are books and toys for young children in the kids' bedroom or the game room. For babies, we have a pack-and-play and a highchair in the house, so you do not need to pack them.

★Pets★
We do allow pets during your stay with us. Our backyard is fully fenced, and you can have your dog running around in the backyard without worry. But please pickup after your dog. There is a $100 per pet one-time fee for our cleaners to apply additional procedure afterwards. You must notify us at least 1 day before arrival and pay the pet fee prior to getting the lockbox code.

Family getaway
Our family united for our annual family gathering. Wonderful location, beautiful home and views. Beds were so comfy, sunsets were beautiful and the game room was fun! The common spaces are perfect for families and the propane fire pit was perfect to stay warm as we enjoyed the evenings outside. A gem!

This place was amazing! The views were spectacular, the space clean and well appointed, very comfortable beds, nice linens, a children's room with books and toys. There was a surprise entertainment room which was great to have on a rainy day. Hours could be spent (and were) just enjoying the views from the back yard. We would highly recommend this rental and will be back. Laurie Bush

Stunning View
We had a fantastic stay at this property! The view is AMAZING. The home was clean, very spacious, and exactly as pictured. We were lucky to experience a few warm days in March that we spent on a blanket in the backyard. Even though there are close by neighbors, we didn’t see anyone else our entire stay. The kitchen was well stocked and everything worked well. The host was extremely responsive and helpful when we had a few questions and a maintenance issue. She was very kind and quick to help resolve. We would absolutely stay at this listing again! We had a great time and spent most our days at the house.

Amazing Views and Plenty of Room
This was a reunion for siblings and spouses, which we do twice annually. Since we’re all over 70, it was great to find a large ranch house with no stairs. We loved the views, the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, the cleanliness and the well stocked kitchen with plenty of good utensils, pots and pans and dinner ware. Good location too which allowed us to go north and south to explore the whole area. The property manager rocked, with her consistent and timely assistance if needed.

Absolutely stunning views
This home was updated and roomy. The first vacation home we’ve rented that the mattress was more comfortable than ours at home! The sheets were great quality, as well. The kitchen was full of all the gadgets that you’d need. The house was so well stocked and labeled so we could find everything easily. The rooms were spacious and yet still cozy. The bald eagle 🦅 that flew over every day was awesome! Loved getting to watch all of the boats go by. The mountain views were outstanding. The location was close to stores and yet felt so private. I can’t say enough about this one! My birthday with my family at this home will be remembered forever!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Newly renovated home with nice style! It has every little thing you could want: plenty of super cozy beds, fully stocked kitchen, huge game/tv room, large fenced yard and stunning views! While there’s no immediate beach access (quite the cliff side) there is a public spot just two minutes up the road. Highly recommend this gem!

Awesome Seascape Views
Quiet get away with gorgeous views of the sea and cliffs. Freshly updated and we'll furnished home. Plenty of space for our party of 9 (6 Adults + 3 Kids). Backyard a bit intimidating at first being right up on a Cliffside, but you can't beat the view. Fencing provides reassurance for small kids. Location is convenient for trips into town to use the city parks and for groceries. Also close to many state parks for day trips. Would definely stay again in the future!
