Dreamy Castle in the woods with ocean views, hot tub, private gazebo & glowing sunsets—just minutes from Olympic National Park.

Welcome to The Cedar & Salt Estate, an oceanfront fairytale tucked into the evergreens above the Strait of Juan de Fuca. We once imagined a place like this only existed in stories, until we found it here. At the heart of the estate, a bluffside deck and gazebo open to dramatic water views, glowing sunsets and the sound of waves below. Soak in the private hot tub beneath the trees, gather around the fire, watch for whales and bald eagles, and let the castle work its magic.

We are available anytime via phone, text or message with any questions you may have.

The Cedar & Salt Estate is tucked into a peaceful wooded setting near Freshwater Bay, where the forest meets the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Keep your eyes on the water because this area is known for incredible marine life, including orcas, whales, dolphins, harbor seals, river otters, and bald eagles. Freshwater Bay is also a beautiful spot for kayaking, fishing, crabbing, birdwatching, or simply slowing down and taking in the water.

Enjoy full use of the 3,065 sqft home, 7-person hot tub, game room, Starlink WiFi, kitchen, washer/dryer, and free parking, plus secluded gazebo and deck across your own nearly 3.3-acre retreat.

✨ YOUR CASTLE BY THE SEA

Welcome to The Cedar & Salt Estate, a place we once thought only existed in stories.

Tucked into nearly 3.3 private wooded acres above the Strait of Juan de Fuca, this 3,065 sq ft castle-style retreat feels hidden away in its own little world. Towering evergreens surround you, the water stretches across the horizon, and throughout the estate are small reminders that this is not an ordinary vacation rental.

This is the kind of place where mornings begin with coffee overlooking the sea, afternoons are spent exploring Olympic National Park, and everyone somehow ends up outside together when the sky starts to change.

🌊 THE VIEW & OUTDOOR LIVING

This is the heart of Cedar & Salt.

Step onto the private bluffside deck where the Strait stretches across the horizon and you can hear the waves below. Right beside it, the covered gazebo shares the same sweeping view, giving you a front-row seat to glowing sunsets, quiet mornings, and evenings around the fire.

Soak in the private hot tub beneath the evergreens, watch ships move across the water, and keep an eye out for bald eagles, whales, orcas, dolphins, and other wildlife.

It is the kind of view that makes you stop what you're doing and stay outside just a little longer.

Outdoor highlights include:

• Expansive bluffside deck overlooking the water
• Private gazebo with the same dramatic Strait views
• 7-person hot tub overlooking the sea
• Fire features at both the deck and gazebo
• Outdoor gathering and dining spaces
• Nearly 3.3 wooded acres surrounded by evergreens
• Incredible sunset and wildlife-watching opportunities

🏰 INSIDE THE CASTLE

The magic does not stop when you come inside.

Cedar & Salt was designed to feel warm, regal and just a little unexpected. Dramatic chandeliers, rich textures, warm lighting and storybook details carry the castle feeling throughout the home, while large windows keep the trees and water connected to the experience indoors.

Large windows keep the trees and water connected to the experience indoors, while spacious living areas give everyone room to gather, relax, and settle in after a day of exploring.

🎱 THE CASTLE GAME ROOM

When the adventures outside are over, the competition begins.

The dedicated game room gives the group its own place to hang out, with:

Pool table | Air hockey | Foosball

It is perfect for rainy Olympic Peninsula evenings, family tournaments, or those nights when nobody actually wants to go to bed yet.

☕ SLOW MORNINGS & DINNER TOGETHER

The kitchen is fully equipped for group meals and longer stays, with a dedicated coffee setup for one of our favorite Cedar & Salt rituals: making a fresh cup and taking it outside before everyone else wakes up.

📍 CLOSE TO OLYMPIC NATIONAL PARK

Cedar & Salt gives you the feeling of escaping into the Pacific Northwest without giving up access to the places you came here to explore.

Olympic National Park Visitor Center: approximately 20 minutes away

You will also be within easy reach of Freshwater Bay, Lake Crescent, downtown Port Angeles, Hurricane Ridge and the incredible coastline of the Olympic Peninsula.

Spend the day hiking, exploring lakes and beaches, then come back to something that feels like part of the destination itself.

A LITTLE NOTE FROM US

Cedar & Salt started as one of those dreams that felt a little too magical to be real, a castle in the woods where the forest meets the sea.

Somehow, that little dream became a place we now get to share with you.

Consider this your cordial invitation to the Castle.

We hope your time here is filled with the simple moments that make a trip feel special: slow mornings with coffee, sunset soaks, laughter around the game table, quiet time in the gazebo, and evenings spent together under the trees.

And when it's time to leave, we hope you take a little piece of the Castle's magic with you.

Thank you for being part of the story.
