We spent a lot of time on the porch out back watching the seals, ducks, herons, and eagles. It was amazing. We also enjoyed several sun rises and the tidal changes of the Canal. The kayaks were fun too. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds super comfortable. It couldn’t have been better.

A beautiful calm retreat!
We loved our short stay. We saw eagles, elk, seals and ducks while sitting on the balcony porch. We took the kayaks out and the water was so calm. Several good stops and hiking in the area.

Lovely stay
We had another wonderful stay at this lovely home. The setting is peaceful and scenic, making it the perfect place to unwind. AS returning guests, we especially appreciated the thoughtful touches and attention to detail throughout the house. The kayaks were a big hit again -- such a great way to enjoy Hood Canal!

Loved it!!
Stayed here with our 5&8 year old as well as Grandma visiting from the east coast. We absolutely loved it. House was clean and so so cute. Stairs to rocky beach is A LOT be prepared to walk, but once you are down to beach it is lovely! Bring tough water shoes for shell and rocky beach. Kyaks and all the life jackets you need for any size are ready to go. Bald eagles, Elk, and harbor seals were a daily occurence. It was magical! Visit Hama Hama and Hook & Fork. 2 of our favorite places.We would book again.

The house felt like happy people lived there for a century. It is very well loved and cared for, with a stunning view and gardens. It was cozy and elegant, and we loved learning about the house's family. We loved being on the water, and feet from Doswallips State Park where we took walks, and enjoyed the river, and lookout points, and hikes. The town is small and friendly. We enjoyed everything about our stay. We just wish we could have stayed longer. It was a breathtaking beautiful place. I actually got to wade around in proximity to a bunch of seals who seemed annoyed but not too bothered by my presence. They also provided binoculars at the house. We spent hours watching wildlife. I did not look at my phone, a computer, or a t.v. once. I didn't miss it. In fact, I feel like I've been reminded that the life around me can be far more enriching than what is on a screen.

Amazing Property!
I don't typically pick older properties like this but the view and experience was too good to pass up. We LOVED it! Very remote property so come prepared with groceries. The house was extremely clean. Very well stocked - they've thought of everything! We loved the peace and quiet/lack of other people around. Watching the harbor seals and the bald eagles was a highlight of our week. The master bed was extremely comfortable. Highly Recommend

Absolutely magical
It’s always suspicious when you see a property that’s 5 stars across the board, but with this place, it’s absolutely warranted. From the comfy beds to the great water pressure all the way on up to the gorgeous historic property, very responsive and kind host, and the incredible wildlife viewing, this is simply one of the best properties I’ve ever rented, if not the best. I can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful, comfy beds, kitchen has good appliances and is stocked well with essentials. Wonderful views from every room. We had 4 adults and 2 young children and were very comfortable. Lots of stairs to climb, be prepared for skinny, steep stairways.

A groovy place to stay
The house is unique in all the right ways. Fun staircases, awesome views from everywhere, the kitchen had everything we needed to cook for all eight of us and the beds were very comfortable.
The way the tide comes in all the way to the stairs made for easy access to the floating and then it went way out for fun beach combing as well. The binoculars were a nice touch so we could zero in on all the seals and the eagles, too!

The property manager was quick to reply to questions, house was as-advertised, kitchen had cookware/spices/accessories, with cleaning supplies and laundry detergent. The view was amazing with entertainment from the seals and otters. Would definitely stay here again. Check out nearby Hamma Hamma Oysters and the Geoduck Lounge!

It's like 2 different water stays
We had a great time during our stay. The tide changed so much between high and low tides, that it was like 2 totally different water views. The kitchen and house as a whole was very well stocked. The stairs in the house are rather narrow, and the wood floors creak, but both things are to be expected with a historical home. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others.

We fell in love with the Nantucket style, old world charm, amazing wildlife, incredible views and the quaint city of Brinnon. We look forward to many years of our guests enjoying this special place as much as we do!
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
This is the MOST historical home and property on the Hood Canal and closest to the water in all of Brinnon Estates. This unique home lies above an estuary of amazing wildlife. It is truly a photographer's playground. Sit back and enjoy the eagles that soar by, the Roosevelt Elk and the sea lions frolicking. The views are incredible. The house itself is truly a step back in time. It has been lovingly preserved. There are so many original items kept throughout the years, the hardwood floors and the original kitchen sink, just to name a few. One step onto this property and you will be truly transformed from the daily hustle & bustle of life. Come stay at The Historic Balch Retreat and you will experience relaxation at its finest.
この宿泊施設の特徴
The views of the expansive waters, the sounds of the birds, the water hitting the shore, the sea lions in all their playfulness, is so very calming to the soul. Experience true spiritual peace and comfort as you immerse yourself in nature.
