Olympic Peninsula, from Coast to Forest, Scenic Hiking, Kayaking, Fishing, GEM.


Relax in the most romantic places on the Emerald Northwest. Endless views, a large sweeping deck that overhangs the tidelands with a dock down to the water, watch otters play, seals, and eagles just about in every direction. Views of Mt Rainier to the southeast and the tip of Mt Baker to the northeast. Just does not get any better than this.

This is the exact location where the Dosewallips River feeds the saltwater ocean ( they say - when fresh water rivers feed salt water oceans - life is most abundant). Sit back and listen to the sound of the rivers greeting the sea's tides. A Magical place in paradise where you can explore many nearby State Parks, Kayaking, Canoeing, hiking, yoga in the yard or on one of the three tiered decks, water sunrises, some of the most amazing moons, or take a walk during low tides.

Sit back on the deck or inside to be greeted by a fantastic sunrise. Enjoy four Kayaks when the waters on the Hood Canal reach high tide and are calm. Life preservers in different sizes are provided in the shed on our dock. Take a hike outside your door to some of the most romantic, magical walks in the Pacific Northwest. Dosewallips State Park is within walking distance of the house. This house has one of the most expansive peninsula and waterfront views.

If you are a family or just a couple in need of a getaway, then this is the perfect place to relax.

Eat fresh Oysters or clams just a few miles away while listening to live music on weekends at the Hama Hama Saloon. Walk to the local Geoduck tavern, or simply stay put and enjoy a million-dollar view with everything this home has to offer all around you. Life does not get any better.

This is the eastern access to all these amazing natural places, abundant with amazing scenery, all levels of hiking trails that can lead you through the entire Park for a week of trekking, or a short round-trip with a picnic. Falls View Park and waterfall, Mount Walker viewpoint and many other wonderful scenic outings all within a few minutes' drive.

Windows in every direction, and an expansive deck that hangs over the water for big views. This homes yard has one of the longest shoreline views and its proximity to the water is unbeatable. Big space to enjoy a family of 6 -8 comfortably. Olympic national forest is near your doorstep. Home to Otters, seals, Elk, Osprey, Kingfish and Bald eagles.


Small-town charm is nearby and is the gateway to deep-water marinas, three major rivers, clam and oyster beaches, excellent bird and wildlife viewing, a 120-foot waterfall, Mount Walker, or a drive if you do not want to hike to the top. Enjoy Pleasant Harbor to watch the sailboats just a mile away. Or just stay on the deck and enjoy the most amazing views on the Peninsula.

There are two Visitor Centers with detailed maps and up-to-date information about the Olympic National Forest and Olympic National Park

This 3 bedroom vacation home is a combination of the main house and a SEPARATE STUDIO. Please Note: The base rate is for the main house only. The main house is 2 bedroom, one King bed and one with a queen bed, 2 full bathrooms, SLEEPS 4 and the BASE NIGHTLY RATE COVERS UP TO 4 guests. The site will adjust the nightly price for additional guests. The studio is also available for you to rent if you have the need for a 5th or 6th person or just need 3 beds for the 4 of you. .

NO FIREWORKS ALLOWED ON THE PROPERTY OR BEACH.

The ATTACHED STUDIO has a separate entrance up top and is available for groups of 5 or 6. Total 6 people for the house at any time. The studio has a Tempur Pedic King along with a full kitchen and full bathroom. The studio is exposed to Hwy 101 so not recommended for light sleepers. The Main house is insulated by the studio and amazing architectural design, and a stairwell. The design is great and we do not hear anything but the Seals talking out in the water.

The house has a set of 12 stairs that brings you from the carport entry to the main floor, master bedroom, kitchen, living room, second bedroom and deck. The studio has outside stairs, about 12, from the carport up to the entrance. If any occupant has difficulty with stairs this may not be the best home for your stay.

If you drive an EV, please let us know. A utility charge must be paid depending on your length of stay. The area has high rates that escalate as we consume more power.

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!

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!

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.

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.

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!!!

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.
