Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Hood Canal

The location and outdoor surroundings are superb; so beautiful, private, and peaceful! The place is a little dated and could use some updates, but overall, this was a lovely stay for our group of 6. The hosts communicated very well; everything was clear and organized. Thank you!

Andrea’s place was just as nice as the description and pictures on AirBNB. It was perfect for the few days we stayed. The bed was very comfortable, the kitchen amenities were great, the view was super, and the hot tub fantastic after a day of hiking in the nearby Olympics! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Very convenient spot for exploring the eastern side of Olympic. Loved the porch with the lake views! An obviously loved family vacation home vs. an often seen sterile no-personality Airbnb. One note is the beds on the 2nd floor are up a tricky set of stairs (listing has a picture), so something to watch out for anyone with mobility issues.

Home with a beautiful view of the water and, if you use the provided kayaks to go a couple hundred yards north, a view of the snowcapped mountains in the park as well. We saw a lot of wildlife from the kayaks. Good for stargazing when it's clear. If it had rained, the couches by the giant windows overlooking the canal would have been the perfect spot to settle in with a book and watch the rain. A great base to explore the area and recharge after, and roomy and comfortable for four adults. Jay was quick to respond to any question.

The location was private and secluded, the yard looked great, the view was beautiful and amazing! There was enough outdoor furniture for everyone. The kitchen had enough pots and pans and gadgets to make cooking meals possible. We have stayed in places where the kitchen was not equipped for that. There were a good number of blankets and pillows. Thomas responded to my questions pretty fast.

We loved the space. Great views. Windows for days. We even measured some spaces in the house to incorporate into our home build. It’s not a large home but it feels so spacious with all the natural light. Truly feels like home. It’s not a cheap rental but the value is all there. We would love to return sometime! Zero complaints and I’d highly recommend the stay for anyone looking to visit the area.

Wow! What a view! And the host was so kind! He took the time to answer several questions and even called us! Saw eagles, seals! The changing views because of the tide are so interesting! Parking isn’t the easiest, but very doable. The local restaurant was delicious at breakfast! About an hour and a half from Hurricane Ridge mountain range, but the scenery to and from is stunning!

We had such a lovely stay here over the Easter weekend – it was everything we hoped for and more! The house is clean, beautifully kept, and the views? Absolutely breathtaking. It’s one of those rare places that feels even better in person than in the pictures. It had everything we could possibly need – and then some. The hosts were simply wonderful – super friendly, accommodating, and just really easy to talk to. They made the whole experience feel warm and personal, not distant or transactional in any way. They even let us check in early and check out late, which made a huge difference for us with kids. Our days were filled with beach walks, seafood harvesting adventures, backyard chill time, and gorgeous sunsets. It felt like a perfect little reset from our busy lives. We were also celebrating our daughter’s 4th birthday during the stay, and she had an absolute blast. Can’t wait to come back. Thank you Dale & Carol.

Victorias place was absolutely BEAUTIFUL! The Captains Quarters are a must stay place if you’re in long branch/lakebay. It felt like we were truly a captain of a ship, especially since the view was absolutely amazing. Victoria was so responsive, kind, and gave local recommendations. The private beach is even more gorgeous than the pictures, and it felt like a getaway from home. Our only regret is that we didn’t do more on the property! Would definitely stay here again. Props to Victoria and the amazing space!

Very nice place to stay in Tacoma. Host is proactive and responsive. Snacks and drinks are supplied. Recommend this place.

Beautiful and Pristine place. We were here to celebrate our anniversary and do the bioluminescence tour at port gamble. I would love to come back. The garden is gorgeous, the view is breathtaking. Christine was a wonderful host. We had no issues at all. The kitchen and the bathroom were all well stocked. They have great collection of books as well, for someone who likes reading.

Cynthia’s house was perfect for us. It was very clean and decorated beautifully. It was quiet and so peaceful there. The molasses cookies that was left for us were delicious and so thoughtful!! We had a 4 hour delay with rental car issues, I messaged Cynthia to let her know it would be very late before we arrived.. she was so understanding and kind and left the light on for us . She responded quickly and gave me several good recommendations for our trip in the area. I would recommend Cynthia’s home to anyone!! And I would definitely stay with Cynthia again.

Our family came to visit us in north Kitsap and we appreciated the clean and quiet accommodations between Kingston and Port Gamble. They enjoyed the nearby day trips to Point No Point lighthouse and beach, Port Gamble’s quaint downtown and White Horse Golf Course. The beach access was a plus, but the kayaks available were a little far from the beach - a series of steps, etc. so we passed on that. We were able to use the firewood that the host provided at the beach, so we were very happy with the experience we had. All-in-all, a lovely spot to stay!

Thomas's location was perfect for our weekend trip. The apartment was not just what we needed; it felt like a home away from home. It was cozy, and we felt comfortable. Thomas was a great host. He communicated that the apartment was ready for us when we arrived and that we could check in earlier than the usual check-in time. We did not meet the first day we arrived, but he came down to introduce himself the next morning, and we had a friendly chat to discuss our plans for our visit to the area. This location is ideal for anyone who plans to visit the city to attend any events held at T-Mobile Park or Lumen Field, as the routes to the area are simple and easy to get to. Plus, it is a good location to get to downtown Seattle or Bellevue, with easy access to major roadways. I will consider Thomas's location again for future travels to Seattle.

This house is incredible. The location is perfect, walking distance to many food and drink spots. There is an amazing coffee shop right on the corner. Sauna and soaking tub are relaxing. The house is clean and organized and has clear instructions. Hosts are helpful and knowledgable. Highly recommend!

We had a great short stay at Rebecca's place. It was very cute and plenty of room for two people. Rebecca was very friendly and communicative.

Love Darren’s place. It’s very peaceful and private. The cabin very cute. We enjoy oysters right from the backyard. The only issue is the road little scared to drive. Overall nice place to get away. Thanks Darren!

Beautiful spot in the woods! Easy to drive into town and to spots to explore around the island, and a comfortable retreat to come back to with a campfire at the end of the day.

What a perfect peaceful place to getaway. We so enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Aimee and Carlos were very kind and left us nice welcoming gifts! (Thank you!) The view is amazing. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Stunning views, a lot of water activities. The place is cute and comfortable, will come back!

Nice and cozy place surrounded by trees. Relaxing to sit outside on the hammock and just listen to nature. You might even get a visit from a friendly deer. They give you everything that you need if you want to enjoy a day or two on the lake. Always answered questions that I had in a timely manner. Food and activities to do in close proximity. They leave brochures for you if you are interested in driving for further out places. Overall it was everything my wife and I were looking for. I highly recommend this place if you are planning a trip in or around hoodsport.

My wife and I had an unbelievable experience in Julee’s cabin. Service and communication were 10 out of 10! We fell in love with this cute cabin and are already planning our return trip! Beautiful scenery and mountains to do for an outdoor enthusiast. Hoodsport is a cute town and 5 minute drive away. Our dogs loved all the nearby trails. Highly, highly recommend!

Our stay at Discovery Bay Lookout was an absolute dream—one of our favorite Airbnbs to date, and we travel often! The location is perfect if you’re looking to reconnect with nature. It felt secluded and peaceful, yet was just a short drive to groceries and restaurants. The cabin is magical—beautifully designed, warm, and thoughtfully organized. We loved cooking in the kitchen, reading in cozy nooks, and soaking in the hot tub and sauna while taking in the views. We traveled with two small kids, and Virginia went above and beyond by providing a high chair, toddler dishes, and so many thoughtful touches throughout. Her hospitality truly set this stay apart. We left feeling inspired and dreaming of owning a place like this one day. Until then, we hope to return. Don’t hesitate to book—just be sure to take great care of this special place so others can enjoy it too.

Joshua was so accommodating to our group. He allowed us to be flexible. He was extremely responsive and communicated instantly when we had questions. We loved this place and created new memories with our family and kids. I would recommend this stay 1,000x over. The house was clean, charming, and kid friendly. We cooked each night in the kitchen and enjoyed standing around the large island to gather. Very grateful for our time there.
