About this property

Newly refinished two-bedroom house with an elegant rustic look on the waterfront

Wild Rose on the Bay is a recently-remodeled house in a natural setting on the waterfront shores of Sequim Bay. There is a peaceful feeling of tranquility and privacy as you gaze out over the back yard to the beautiful waters of Sequim Bay and the forested hills beyond. The two-bedroom house is elegantly appointed, but at the same time retains the rustic feel of a secluded cabin in a country setting. The newly installed skip-sawn Douglas fir floor is dramatic, and it complements the exposed wooden beams and ceiling in the living room and master bedroom. The master bedroom, which flows out to the back deck through french doors, has a king-sized bed with side tables plus a sitting area for reading or watching TV. It also has a large, walk-in closet. The second bedroom has a queen-sized bed with a closet, side tables, and small sitting area. Some of the original closets and kitchen cabinets have been kept to preserve the history of the house and have been updated with a fresh, new look. This home sleeps four. The kitchen is fully equipped and ready for your use.

The property flows down from forests and meadows past two rustic, old out-buildings to the main house. The outbuilding closest to the house has a 220 volt, 50 amp electric vehicle receptacle for charging EV batteries A small Alaskan cedar deck greets you as you approach the front entrance of the house. On the back side of the house, the generous Alaskan cedar deck looks over a large lawn before coming to a small deck at the top of a 20' bank. There you will find a small, middle deck with a stairway leading down to the lower deck right off the beach. That middle deck at the top of the bank has a fire pit with plenty of firewood nearby. It’s a great place to watch sunsets with a fire going while taking in the incredible views in a private, peaceful setting.

The lower deck has short ramp to the beach on one end, and on the other end there is a small dock house. (The key is in the welcome basket in the main house.). Once inside, there’s a cozy, intimate feeling while sitting on the futon couch. Since you’re only about six feet above the beach, it will seem like you’re connected to the water of Sequim Bay as you gaze out the generous windows and often hear the waves lapping the shore below, especially at high tide when the water is under the dock house.

For those who are comfortable with the safe use of kayaks, there are two 10’ kayaks available for you to paddle along the shores of Sequim Bay. Kayak paddles and life vests are stored inside the dock house.

When the weather is warm, one may even venture to swim in the cool waters of Sequim Bay with water shoes to protect your feet from the rocky beach.

This is a perfect country, waterfront getaway for a relaxing and refreshing vacation.

Lovely Get Away
We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. It was well stoked with lots of little extras which was very nice. It was easy to find and the location close to the Jamestown S'klallam Tribal Center was a bonus!

Amazing home on the water!!
We had the most lovely stay here!! The home is beautiful with large windows to capture the amazing view of the water… I could have looked out those windows all day! There is a lovely dock with a cute little over water shed for getting cozy with a cup of tea and watching the rain. The house was stocked with everything you’d need and its wonderful proximity to both Sequim town center and Port Townsend. We will DEFINITELY book this home again!!

About the host

Hosted by Doug Ahmann

Host profile image
We have lived in Port Angeles for 46 years and feel privileged to call the Olympic Peninsula our home. We love to share this amazing place with our guests. Doug is a retired accountant and now a handyman, and Jo Dee is a retired violin teacher and now a life coach. We both are also now enjoying our role as grandparents. We love the outdoors - hiking, fishing, kayaking, and exploring.

Why they chose this property

This beautiful piece of property became available in the summer of 2018 through a remarkable set of circumstances. The old house on the property was in desperate need of attention, and with hard work and good help over the next ten months, we like to say that the house has been redeemed from it's former sad state to give it new life with a great renovation with a fresh, new look.

What makes this property unique

If you like the feeling of serenity in a private, peaceful, secluded setting, this place offers it all. The newly-remodeled house with it's beautiful views over Sequim Bay, plus the immediate access to the beach and waterfront make this place desirable for a romantic, private, get-away. Even though you feel secluded there, you are only about a ten-minute drive away from the city of Sequim, where good shopping and restaurants are available.
