About this property

Serene Sunset Suite on Historic Discovery Bay

In 2016 we finished building the "Big House" overlooking the cabin and fulfilling a 40 year dream of hosting family and friends...old and new alike. We have a lovely daylight level suite fully furnished with all new appliances, custom alder cabinets, maple paneling and an originally designed kitchen island.... all built with love and the view in mind. But the best part IS the view. It features a private deck and shared Beach access with our family and others.

Beautiful quiet location. Friendly owner. Had everything I needed for a very comfortable stay. The swing seat on the porch is a lovely spot to enjoy the view and watch the hummingbirds at the feeder. I enjoyed having easy access to the beach. Often saw a seal and there were always lots of ducks. I would definitely stay at this property again.

Gorgeous view, peaceful setting.It was a great base for exploring the region, and the hosts are very nice. We wished we could have stayed longer! In the afternoon we had a lovely walk along the beach (relatively low tide). In the mornings and late afternoons we enjoyed watching the hummingbirds flitting about; we wish they would share rather than chasing each other away from the feeders.

The beach get away!

Great little get away! Super clean property, everything you might need, even a beach blanket. It’s a bit far down the stairs to the beach but worth every step and there are landings to rest. I’d reserve again!

Great place to disconnect and see nature!

We took a couple of nights here. Darrell is very welcoming and helpful with getting settled in. The place was great, clean and had the best views of the water and also there was beach access. Parking was no issue and close to Port Townsend and Port Angeles. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

Darrell is an amazing host. He is very knowledgeable and proud of the history his property and the surrounding area. The house was nice and the sunset is amazing. It was stocked with everything we needed and Darrell checked in with us throughout the trip to make sure everything was good. He was even nice enough to share some fresh caught crab with us.

The Sunset suite, downstairs from the owner’s home, offers total privacy and one of the most beautiful sunsets we’ve experienced. A stairway leads down the hill to a private beach.The beautiful new kitchen in the suite has a dishwasher and every appliance and kind of dinnerware you could ever need. The suite was very clean, washer and dryer worked well and hosts were delightful. We hope to stay there again!
