Om boendet

Duck Pond Beach House pÄ Freshwater Bay @ Elwha River Mouth

OM HEMET och BOENDE FÖR UPP TILL 4:
Duck Pond Beach House-fastigheten Àr helt grindad frÄn gatan och ingÄngen till fastigheten Àr genom en kodad grind. SÄ du kÀnner att du befinner dig inom din egen privata vÀrld nÀr du vÀl kommer in i Duck Pond-fastigheten.

Hemmet Àr ett höjt 2 vÄningar 3406 kvadratmeter strandhus, med det huvudsakliga bo pÄ andra vÄningen. Huset Àr inte tillgÀngligt för funktionshindrade pÄ grund av trappan. Denna översta vÄning (andra vÄningen) hyrs ut för 2-4 baserat pÄ dubbelbelÀggning till en fast annonserad nattpris. Om enstaka belÀggning, kommer du att debiteras en platt $ 70 för varje rum / per natt utöver de ursprungliga 2 kung rum pÄ andra vÄningen. Dessa 2 stora sovrum med kungar, alla med eget badrum, ett pulverrum pÄ 1/2 badrum i korridoren, och ett mycket stort stort rum med högt 12-tak, fönster frÄn golv till tak sÄ att du fÄr fri utsikt i alla riktningar om OS Berg, vintergrön bluff, Freshwater Bay and Beach, vÄra surfare dagligen, San Juan de Fucas sund och Kanada tvÀrs över vattnet.

Det stora rummet har ett vardagsrum med vedeldad spis, sittplatser för 6, stort kommunalt matbord med 8 stolar, en tung trÀbÀnk för att pressa in ytterligare 2 vid bordet för plats för upp till 10, bar sittplatser för 2, och helt utrustat kockkök med alla nya KitchenAid-apparater i rostfritt stÄl: propanutbud och konvektionsugn med inbyggt neddragning, stor elektrisk mikrovÄgsugn / konvektionsbÀnkugn, diskmaskin med stor kapacitet, stort kylskÄp med ismaskin och alla köksfaciliteter du skulle vilja piska upp en fin gourmetmÄltid. Detta omrÄde slÀpps ut pÄ ett observationsdÀck som svÀvar över landskapet i norr dÀr du kan titta pÄ djurlivet nedan pÄ de omgivande grunderna och över dammen och i viken, och fÄglar pÄ vattnet, svÀva runt och ovanför dig och passera fartyg och Victoria, Vancouver Island, BC över vattnet. Det finns tvÄ chaiselongstolar, ett runt uteserveringsbord och plats för 6. Dessutom finns det 4 adirondake stolar samt en Weber propan BBQ grill. Det finns ytterligare 9 adirondake-stolar: pÄ linden runt dÀck, 2 av 2 kungdrÀkter, en utanför dörren pÄ nedre bakdörren och 4 under trÀden i trÀdgÄrden för din avkoppling i hela fastigheten.

YTTERLIGARE BOENDE FÖR 6 MER:
BottenvÄningen (1: a vÄningen) har uteslutna sovrum som endast öppnas och görs tillgÀngliga för ytterligare gÀster under de första 2-4 gÀsterna pÄ övervÄningen för en extra per person / per rum / per natt avgift baserat pÄ dubbelbelÀggning. För enstaka belÀggning kommer det att bli $ 70 per rumskostnad utöver det 1: a sovrummet pÄ andra vÄningen. DÀrför kan vi rymma 4, 6, 8 och 10 registrerade gÀster (i förekommande fall) för en extra per person / per nattavgift pÄ $ 35 för dubbelbelÀggning, eller $ 70 per sovrum / per natt om det bara Àr en belÀggning med en enda tillÀgg. Det inkluderar ett tredje kung sovrum med delat badrum, tvÀttstuga, media / spel / bibliotek rum och tvÄ vÄningssÀng rum som sover tvÄ vardera med ett centralt 1/2 delat Jack och Jill badrum mellan de tvÄ. Dessa tvÄ rum Àr perfekta för barn eller vuxna som inte vill dela en sÀng. Men vi vill rekommendera mot smÄ barn eftersom detta INTE Àr ett barnvÀnligt hus. Vi har trappor överallt, balkonger, vassa hörn, stengolv, brytbara delar, vita mattor, massor av glasfönster i full höjd, ojÀmn mark, grus asfalt uppfart och ett stort oskÀrdat damm. Huset Àr ömtÄligt och innehÄller mÄnga föremÄl som lÀtt kan brytas. Dammet Àr en potentiell fara. SÄ vi uppmanar att du alltid ser dina barn som en hök. Vi tar absolut inget ansvar.

YTTERLIGARE AMENITETER OCH AVGIFTER:
Ved, tĂ€ndning, papper och tĂ€ndstickor tillhandahĂ„lls för att starta en eld i vedeldad spis, men det kommer att bli en avgift om du inte fyller pĂ„ vedlagringsrutan under spisen och förvaringsstĂ€llet pĂ„ dĂ€ck. Du kan fĂ„ mer ved frĂ„n vedstapeln som tĂ€cks av en tarp och under observationsdĂ€ck. ÅterstĂ€llningsavgiften Ă€r $ 75 per omrĂ„de ($ 150 om ingen av dessa fylls pĂ„). Annars kommer vi att tillhandahĂ„lla detta ved gratis som tillstĂ„nd till vĂ„ra gĂ€ster med vĂ„ra komplimanger.

OM EGET:
Duck Pond Beach House ligger bakom sina egna privata grindar pÄ gatan, pÄ Freshwater Bay vid Elwha River Mouth, Washingtons senaste snabbt vÀxande svart sandbrandstrand. Elwha-floden hade tvÄ dammar som togs bort 2012 och 2014. NÀr det hÀnde sköljdes 100 Är av uppbyggt slam ner till San Juan de Fucas sund. Under de senaste Ären har all den sanden omförlagts mot strÀnderna i Freshwater Bay vid Elwha River Mouth och bildade över 100 nya tunnland svart sandstrand och drivved. Innan denna hÀndelse var stranden nÀstan omöjlig att gÄ över pÄ grund av att den var tÀckt av kullersten. Nu vÀxer och vÀxer den nya svarta sandstranden varje dag och laddar stÀndigt sin form, vilket fÄr fler och fler besökare att bevittna detta fantastiska fenomen och njuta av denna spektakulÀra plats.

Duck Pond Beach House ligger pĂ„ den största av tvĂ„ sötvattendammar, Ă„tskilda frĂ„n Elwha-floden med en dike som Ă€r privatĂ€gt men öppen för allmĂ€nheten för tillgĂ„ng till stranden. Stranden framför dammet Ă€gs ocksĂ„ privat av dem lĂ€ngs denna strĂ€cka. Duck Pond Beach House-fastigheten Ă€r knappt 4 tunnland inklusive en stor 1. 25 tunnland grĂ€smatta, sötvattendamm och hus och nĂ€stan 2. 5 tunnland privat svart sand och drivvedstrĂ€ngad strand, som allmĂ€nheten ofta anvĂ€nder ocksĂ„ . För nĂ€rvarande Ă€r hundar vĂ€lkomna pĂ„ stranden sĂ„ lĂ€nge Ă€garna hĂ„ller dem i koppel hela tiden och plockar efter dem, men detta privilegium kan lĂ€tt Ă„terkallas nĂ€r som helst av Ă€garna till vallen och stranden om dessa hundvandrare att inte hĂ„lla dem i koppel hela tiden eller stĂ€da upp efter sig sjĂ€lva. Vi tillĂ„ter dock INGEN husdjur pĂ„ vĂ„r Duck 🩆 Pond-fastighet eller i huset nĂ€r som helst. Detta Ă€r en NO PET-egendom.

PET-POLITIK:
Vi Àr ledsna, men Duck Pond Beach House tillÄter INTE nÄgra husdjur pÄ grund av allergier, slitage och svÄrigheterna att hÄlla marken hundkopp klar som kan orsaka sjukdom och skada denna brÀckliga miljö.

OMGÅNGSOMRÅDE OCH VAD ATT SE:
Duck Pond Beach House ligger vÀl till det mesta av vad Olympic National Park och omgivande omrÄden har att erbjuda. Du Àr bara nÄgra minuter bort för att starta ditt Àventyr pÄ Discovery Trail som ligger precis utanför Place Road och hwy 112, eller upp Race Road och uppför berget i staden till Hurricane Ridge, eller vÀsterut till Crescent Lake som bara Àr 15 minuter bort ligger Sol Doc och Hoh Rain Forest precis dÀr borta, eller sÄ kan du köra upp till 2 timmar lÀngs den natursköna hwy 112 vÀsterut till den lÀngsta vÀstligaste punkten i det kontinentala USA till Cape Flattery och Lake Ozette dÀr du gÄr promenader till Stilla havet. Du kan nÄ nÀstan vad som helst inom en enkel dagstur och vandringar i alla riktningar.

Sequim och Port Townsend ligger ocksÄ inom 30 minuter till en timme österut, dÀr du kan utforska mer av vad varje omrÄde har att erbjuda, gÄrdar, ciderier, vingÄrdar, bryggerier, Dungeness Spit och rekreationspark och historiska centrala Port Townsend , fantastiska restauranger och butiker, och Chimacum Valley, för gÄrdar, ciderier, vingÄrdar och butiker osv. Dessa omrÄden Àr rika pÄ jordbruk och historier.

Staden Port Angeles ligger bara 10-15 minuters bilresa österut i staden för livsmedel, cykel-, bÄt- och skiduthyrning, restauranger, barer, bryggerier, ciderier, vingÄrdar, affÀrer och Coho-fÀrjan till BC.

Dessutom Àr Victoria, Vancouver Island BC i norr en kort 90 minuters fÀrjetur över San Juan de Fucas sund dÀr du kan utforska lite mer, gÄ till underbara Butchart Gardens, köra och utforska denna enorma kanadensiska ö, eller njuta av High Te pÄ Empress Hotel precis dÀr i Victoria Harbour. Se bara till att ta med ditt pass och boka fÀrjan dit och tillbaka för att sÀkra en plats i linje. Om du vÀljer att gÄ över till fots Àr inga reservationer nödvÀndiga, och marktransport nÀr du kommer dit Àr enkelt och effektivt.

Enkel Ätkomst till allt, men du kÀnner dig vÀrldar borta vid Duck Pond Beach House utan stadens liv och rörelse. Koppla av, reflektera, utforska. Din enda grÀns Àr din egen fantasi.

We loved our stay at Duck Pond Beach House. The views of the pond and the Strait of Juan de Fuca are stunning - you can just sit on the deck for hours watching the water and wildlife. Walking on the beach at sunset was absolutely amazing. The house itself is beautiful, spotless, and super comfortable. We used the primary bedroom and bath and appreciated the extra half bath too.It does feel a bit like staying at a friend’s place, with a few things to do before checking out like washing and drying towels and starting the bedding. Not a big deal, and the house rules are mostly the kind of things we do in our own home anyway - like taking shoes off and being careful with water use - just to keep everything nice.All in all it was a peaceful, relaxing escape and we’d happily come back for the views and quiet alone.

The property is in a great location, walking distance to the beach and a short drive to town and hikes. We loved that it has three bedrooms with king sized beds and bathrooms for each room. It was well furnished, minus the non-stick pots and pans that were all quite scratched up.The main reason we aren't able to give this five stars is because the rules were quite intense. There is signage around the house with many rules (e.g. wipe up all standing water, do not use the towel bar as a grab bar, etc.). I imagine the owner has had issues in the past, which led to the signage, but as a respectful group, it only led us to feel like we were walking on eggshells during our stay. It's worth noting as well that the septic system is sensitive, so guests are advised to not use too much water at the same time (e.g. space out showers, don't run laundry and dishwasher at the same time). The checkout list was also quite extensive, requiring us to take out the trash from all rooms, strip the beds, and start the laundry. Overall, the property was very nice. The deck has lovely views, and the spaces were comfortable. I would recommend staying here, but would recommend folks to be prepared for the rules.

After much debate, we decided this was our favorite place we have stayed over the last 10 yrs of rentals.The pics really don't do the place justice, especially of the view outside the house. The beds were incredibly comfortable, I should have seen what mattresses were there because I think I slept the best I have in a long time.Kitchen well stocked.Felt very private and away from it all.Nice to be a bit closer to some of Olympic's hiking areas.Loved being able to walk to the beach every day.Communications were great--our responsibilities were well communicated.Definitely hope to return

Beware would not recommend.

this was my 27th anniversary trip with my family and son that is dealing with a rare cancer. We needed this trip. We have rented Dozens of homes my husband and I own three companies in CA and we take pride in renting great homes and leaving them is perfect condition. This was a nightmare. Beware! We recently rented a 8 bed home with two elevators, 22 family members and we received not only 100% back in our deposit but ZERO complaints on our stay. DO NOT rent this home!!! Its a nightmare. This home owner is going to send you 14 emails the day before you check in with a Massive LIST of do's and don't. Down to why we should be grateful they are letting us use the WIFI. BY THE way. IT doesn't work. You can not shower and use the bathroom at the same time (no water pressure). You can not run the dish washer and use the shower at the same time. If you make one mark on the deck they charge $200.00 a board to repair. They will charge you for leaving the lights on. They will charge you for the towels. THE emails and warnings are insane. Your told the day before the washer and dryer Although listed on the site DO NOT work and if you try to use them she will charge you. She told me I can wash my clothes & hang them to dry outside. That's what she does when she travels. GET ready for a note on everything in the house, If you use the hand soap SHE will make you replace it. This is a scam to get THEIR home remodeled. GET insurance. They are scammers. The amenities offered are not true.

Beautiful Beach House but not the best hospitality

The house is gorgeous and we enjoyed our two-night stay. If you’re looking for a place to stay with family or friends, it has everything you’d want: beautiful setting by the beach, big rooms with comfy beds, spacious and well decorated living areas and lots of outdoor space. However, I have a few suggestions. First off, make sure you read the fine print of the listing. We had to pay an additional fee for having a seventh person and they locked one of the rooms and bathrooms. There was also not a lot of flexibility when I asked for early check in or extra towels. The washer and dryer was also broken. Lastly, there are a lot of house rules, which didn’t make us feel very welcomed. If it was about just the house, it was great, but all the other things made us nervous to stay there.

Beautiful but walking on eggshells

April’s home is beautiful, spacious, and well located. The wildlife was beautiful. It is clean and provides everything needed, except that there may not be enough water for all the guests to shower at convenient times - with a penalty if a service charge is required to repair the septic system. There will be a LONG list of rules provided, including the obvious, as well as others we’ve not experienced with other rentals. We felt a bit nervous while we were there.

Wow. Just a beautiful place to stay for our Olympic visit

This house his in immaculate condition, fully renovated on a quiet street with a view of both the pond and the bay. An excellent kitchen and uniquely beautiful deck. April was great about walking us through all aspects. Some of the house rules did get a chuckle but they’re all designed to keep the house beautiful so I get it. You will have no regrets staying here. Quick tip if you’re going to cook in the house. Stop at a supermarket in Port Angeles on your way in. There’s no great place for a quick run out to grab things.

Beautiful location and home

This home was such a beautiful location and a great getaway for our family. We had to go to Port Angela’s for a wedding and had a big family to accommodate.

Wonderful Duck Pond Stay!

What a great time we had at the Duck Pond home. It was everything and more that the listing said and the photos didn’t do it justice. It’s a beautiful home and lacks for nothing! Anything you might need is at your fingertips. The beds were super comfortable and each bedroom had its own bathroom which was a big plus! We enjoyed being close to Olympic Natl Park and the nearby trail to the beach was our favorite
.we went over and over again! How delightful to be so close! Our many thanks to April for our perfect time at the Duck Pond! We’d love to come again someday!

Duck Pond House

This is a professionally decorated beautiful home ideally situated for views and nature. We enjoyed beach walks right from the property, and for longer excursions this location is ideal for taking the Black Ball ferry to Victoria, driving to Lake Crescent or Cape Flattery, or visiting Hurricane Ridge and other hikes in the Olympic National Park. Truly a gem of a place to relax and enjoy nature.

Treasure!

Duck Pond is well appointed, comfortable and very beautifully decorated without being stuffy. It was the perfect getaway for my family of adult children to take quiet respite and enjoy the secluded beach just down the path, sun deck and fireplace. And the location was perfect for exploring highlights of Olympic National Park. We were able to do it all. Highly recommend!

House Overlooking Duck Pond and Beach

We greatly enjoyed our stay at the house with the gorgeous pond right outside the deck/backyard with views of the beach. The trail to the river/beach is a short walk from the front door. The public parking lot is practically next door to the house, but due to the large property there weren't any disturbances from cars or people. Several times we spotted beavers and river otters in the pond along with the ducks/herons, and we enjoyed hearing the gulls at the beach. The other houses in the neighborhood are spread out and separated by lots of greenery/fences, so there is a sense of privacy on the deck/yard. A doe and fawn visited the yard. The house was comfortable, well-stocked, and very clean with excellent lighting and fun bird decor, but could have used replacements for scratched pans and some niceties like more towels, bannisters for lower outdoor steps, and a laundry basket. The heat, shower and satellite TV worked well. We would have appreciated a few doors/windows in the living area with screens to let in the air/bird sounds without letting the bugs in. The WiFi and cellular were fine. The laundry center was very appreciated, as we didn't have to pack as much on our trip. Owner sweetly left bottle of local wine for us. The property was just 20 minutes from the Olympic National Park Hurricane Ridge Entrance and 15 minutes from the wharf for ferry/whale watching trips. Overall, we had a fun and relaxing time and recommend the Duck Pond Beach House in Port Angeles to all.

Elopement stay

We chose this beautiful home to stay at with our immediate family while we eloped in Olympic. Duck pond was so beyond stunning with amazing accommodations-literally everything you could need was on property. We loved seed wildlife everyday from ducks,otters, and a mother doe and fawn. Duck pond is also close to a walking trail that allows access to the beach on Elwha river which was stunning to see. You can also view the vancouver islands from all the back windows and deck! Thank you to April for housing us! We would love to be back in the future.

Spectacular and comfortable

The property location is magical, with a fantastic view from the living room and deck. The home is lovely, well designed and furnished to be comfortable and convenient. The host was responsive and accessible. Check-in was stressful because the access code for the house was emailed to me only ten minutes before the check-in time of 4 pm, when my email wasn't available from my phone. We waited while the host texted the access code to me and also uploaded the code to the VRBO messaging system. After that, our stay at the home went smoothly.

Really, really nice!

The location is amazing and the house can very comfortably accommodate up to 10 in fine style. We enjoyed the short hike to the river mouth to watch salmon leaping in the evening. Renting eBikes to cruise up to see the former dam sites was cool as well. Only negative was that the decks had some nails poking up that needed to be pounded in but I didn't bring a hammer!

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

The Duck Pond is a amazing property located off Scenic View hwy 112 bypass on the San Juan de Fuca Strait. Its positioned on its own large protected freshwater Duck Pond estuary & Freshwater Bay beach at the Elwha River Mouth. You have spectacular seasonal views of the snow capped Olympic mountains, sweeping Freshwater Bay coastline, the newly formed black sand beaches, driftwood, shipping lanes & Canada.

Its ever changing black sand beaches & spectacular weather, when all else may be overcast & gray, attracted us to this property as well. You never get board at the Duck Pond because there are tons of things to do right outside your door year round, or just stay inside & read a good book. Outdoors there are long walks along historic well known Place Road, beach walks, surfing, body boarding, wind surfing, canoeing, kayaking, rowing, crabbing, fishing, beach combing, driftwood structure building, bird watching, river walks, hikes on nearby Olympic Discovery Trail, Hurricane Ridge, trips to Crescent Lake, Sol Doc, Hoh Rain Forest, Salt Creek, Lyre Creek, Neah Bay, Cape Flattery, Lake Ozette, western beaches like Rialto, Ruby & beaches 1-4 to name just a few, are all within a few mintues to an hour or so away off either hwy 112 or hwy 101.

Victoria, Vancouver Island BC is right across the channel by way of a 90 minute ferry ride from downtown Port Angeles, which is only 10-15 minutes away by car. Easy shopping & great restaurants, bars, cider, beer & wine tasting are also found in town or just 15 minutes further due east in Sequim. Port Townsend & are only an hour away to the east as well, where there are historic sites, festivals, great restaurants & tasting rooms to enjoy. Hurricane Ridge is only a short 20 minute drive up the mountain from the center of town.

The location, views & natural beauty of this environment just cannot be beat to experience the best that Washington state has to offer. The Olympic Peninsula is the place to be offering endless adventures.
