Tom and Mary's place was a wonderful experience. We especially loved the variety of outdoor spaces for relaxing, reading, and wildlife viewing. Thanks to the beautiful weather, we were able to kayak and hike at nearby parks most every day. Lena Lake was our favorite nearby hike. The wildlife viewing at the house was unreal - harbor seals and eagles were everywhere and we even saw the local herd of elk grazing on the tidal plains one morning. Amazing. The house itself was clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was fully stocked with all of the necessary supplies and gadgets for preparing meals. We debating driving to Port Angeles to visit Olympic National Park but there were such great hiking experiences in the nearby National Forest areas we decided to take advantage of those and avoid the longer drive and crowds at ONP. Communication with the hosts was just right - responsive but not overwhelming. Thanks to Tom and Mary for sharing their home with us!

Amazing view

The house has an amazing view. Good location near close to trails and views in Olympic state park. We hiked, had dinner at local restaurants recommended by host-Geoducks and Hama Hama oyster saloon. Kayaking with provided kayaks was fun. Beds were clean and comfortable.

Dream Trip

My son and I spent 8 wonderful nights to celebrate his college graduation. It was a dream trip. Perfect for relaxing, hiking options galore nearby. It was a welcome reprieve from our hot and crowded home state and I can’t wait to go back. Tom was terrific at responding to any questions. We have rented many homes and this one was so well stocked with all necessities!

Weekend Getaway

Tom and Mary were the most gracious hosts for my birthday weekend. My family enjoyed constant eagle sightings, elk, otters, and all of the wonderful flowers blooming. The house was perfect, with an ideal open layout that worked well for us. We will be back for sure!

Amazing location

Amazing wildlife and views from the deck. The house and studio combination was great for my family of four plus an additional couple. Beware that there are not many curtains on the windows and the upstairs bedroom in the main house is in an open loft so if you like to sleep in, bring an eye mask and earplugs!

Beautiful and peaceful

The property was spotless upon arrival and had everything we needed. Very comfortable accomodations and layout for two couples. Checking in and out was a breeze. We loved the beautiful views and wildlife, seeing seals, otters, an elk herd and bald eagles just off the deck every day. The property was well maintained and seemed very private and secluded. Having kayaks and a canoe available was a definite plus. Overall it was a wonderful place to stay.

A lively view of wildlife complete with binoculars

A wonderful opportunity to stay put and watch the tides and wildlife change in front of you The house is wonderful with all the details I love when away from home. The host was easy to reach, responding quickly to messages when needed. The area offers a multitude of recreational activities if you can tear yourself away from the deck

Great stay at “Rare Gem”

Rare Gem on the Hood Canal has a spectacular view of the water from the house and from the expansive deck. The deck is in need of some loving attention, but it is welcoming with umbrellas and comfy chairs.The kitchen is well appointed. Beds are very comfortable. The kayaking is splendid, and swimming at nearby river a treat. Owners are warm and helpful in all communications.

A complete gem

Let’s see, how can I summarize this property ... a great house, spectacular view, excellent kayaking, abundant wildlife, and expert hosting by people who really know what they’re doing. I hope they’re not planning on having much time there themselves as this one’s going to be heavily rented year-round!

Family weekend at the Hood Canal!!!

Before we got to the house we stopped at HAMA HAMA for a bushel of oysters and were able to dig clams on the north side of Dosewallips. Lots of fresh seafood!! Beautiful house with great views. Huge deck for enjoying time outdoors. Large sunroom for kids room or family pets. Good access to beach!! The two bedrooms are spacious and very comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay. A hot tub would be a awesome addition to this property!!!

Incredible views!

Wonderful stay! The views were incredible - the living room/dining area, sunroom and master bedroom are east facing huge windows so we could enjoy the views all day! Lovely long table in dining area- can complete puzzles. Great open floor plan. Very comfy beds! We loved sitting around the fire pit at night and relaxing. The owner, Tom, was very approachable - We couldn’t figure out how to get the fire pit working our first night abd he walked us through it- success! Highly recommend.

What a fantastic week we had, exploring Brinnon and surrounding area. This is a must do for anyone exploring The Olympic Peninsula. VRBO property much more than we anticipated, a wonderful place, to hang out, enough room for our family. The view was beautiful! The view from the Master bedroom breath-taking.

Absolutely the best!

This place could not be better for a quiet cozy get away! The house has everything you would need including fun games, kayaks, all the kitchen gadgets, even a crock pot! Right on the water! The wildlife was spectacular and the sun rises from the master bedroom...just wow! There are tons of nearby hiking trails and state parks. The restaurant that you can WALK to has the best food (take out only because of the COVID) I sure hope I can stay here again! Best vacation rental EVER!

Great time in Brinnon

The house was very large and accommodations were perfect for our family of four. We made good use of the games, water access and Kayaks that were included with the rental. Some of our day trips were a long drive from the house but I always looked forward to getting back there and spending more time on the deck taking in the amazing views of the canal and Mount Rainer in the distance. Communication with Tom and Mary was very easy. I only needed them once at the start and from there it was smooth relaxing vacation.
