We had a great stay at the yellow house. The beds were comfortable and there was lots of space (the basement especially was bigger than expected!). We made a small fire outside and enjoyed the hot tub after a rainy hike. The well-stocked pantry made it feel like home. And a beautiful view to top it all off!

House was clean and had plenty of beds for all 13 of us. Best experience was getting to see 3 orcas swimming in front of the house. Everyone was nice to deal with.

This house is directly across the road from the Hood Canal. The road was busy, but we had a pretty view of the water. The house was clean and equipped with several kitchen tools and several staples such as kitchen seasonings. The house was smaller than we expected from the picture(several small rooms), but there were plenty of sleeping spaces. I

We really loved staying at the yellow house and would do it again without hesitation. At the beginning of our stay we had a little trouble figuring out how to get things to turn on and we got very low on toilet paper but all questions were eventually answered pretty quickly and when I texted the owner he was able to tell me how to access the extra toilet paper they had on site. It was a very nice house and the view was amazing. We were able to see some seals resting on the diving platform across the street through the window while we were in the house. The hot tub was great too and was used many times each day. My only complaint would be that in the information about the house I thought it said Alexa would be able to answer all our questions but that was not the case at all for any of the questions we had. I would suggest updating that book they have telling you things about the house and the area to make it clearer

Great location right by the water with lots of bed space and a full kitchen.

Very spacious and well equipped. Clean and comfortable. Great views and places to relax. Some troubles with wifi connections. Only real problem was with the door code. Numbers on lock are in groupings that don't easily match the code we were given. Owner needs to explain that puzzle more clearly as we could not get in at first and weren't immediately able to reach anyone to exlani the mystery.

Great location overlooking the Hood Canal, loved sitting on the deck watching the seals. Perfect location for hiking in the Olympic National Park. The home was very comfortable and a great hot tub for relaxing after a long day of hiking.

Very nice location, close to town and the canal right across the street.

We had a great time, would definitely spend more time at the Yellow House!

What a delightful property and experience. The house is very inviting and comfortable. I especially love the backyard area. The room themes and all of the artwork are a nice touch. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need and there is a full grocery store right up the road. If I'm ever back in the area, the yellow house will get serious consideration.

We rent a lot of vacation homes and this was hands-down the best equipped. The layout and kitchen items made it feel like we were in our own home, we had everything we needed to enjoy ourselves. This place is dialed!

I've been staying at the "Yellow House" for a decade, give or take. As a scuba instructor, I've taken many classes up to Hoodsport for their open water weekend. Whenever it's available, we've always picked the Yellow House for our open water weekends. It is the ideal setup for a large group of divers. It has a large outbuilding with everything a group of divers may need: gear-up area, drying room, rinse shower, fresh water rinse trough for gear, etc. The water is about 100' away, across the street and down a flight of stairs. The dive park has a variety of habitats, laid out with guide ropes, but it's hit-or-miss when it comes to seeing marine life. In the past, I've seen octopus tending to her eggs, ling cod, gunnels, geoducks, grunt sculpins, moon snails, nudibranch, decorated warbonnets, and so on ... even an occasional wolf eel. But, some trips are better than others. This particular trip was just friends and family. Half divers, half not. Everybody had a great time. The house has a lot to offer anybody, diver or not. The diving wasn't great this time. The recent heavy rains really reduced visibility and some of the bigger structures that tend to host a lot of life didn't really seem to have much. We found dens that were scattered on the outside with crab shells... so it probably has recently hosted octopus or wolf eels. But we didn't see any. Half our of group was non-divers. While some of us were blowing bubbles across the street, they were enjoying the board games, big screen TV, hot tub, and chiminea. "Town" is within walking distance, but be careful of traffic as there are no sidewalks until you get to the dive shop, two blocks north. The Mexican restaurant is always on our itinerary (the margaritas are strong, be warned). Try out the little shops a couple more blocks north or get your groceries across the street from the dive shop at the IGA. The cost has gone up quite a bit since I started going years ago. But, if you have a group, it actually becomes economical pretty quick. Tip: If you are a light sleeper, know that you will hear street noise in the three bedrooms. There isn't much traffic late at night or early morning, but you will hear cars and trucks as they go by. They've put white noise machines in the bedrooms, I did use one, and it helped a bit. But you may want to consider taking a bed in the basement dormitory or bringing ear plugs.

Great setup for diving.

Thanks again!

Everything was great We love the house it was perfect for our Christmas tradition Also really nice that they let us check out late due to the icy roads

The seven of us had an awesome time at the Yellow house, dived the view of the water right from our window. Kitchen was very well stocked for all of our Thanksgiving preparation needs, and the location right by the little town store was perfect for any last minute grabs. 10/10 would stay again, especially if we can try the diving school that seems to be attached.

The house was so amazing and our experience over the top. We had everything we needed and made so many special memories. The house was over the top beyond what I expected. I’ll come back for sure

The Yellow House was a wonderful spot for my families annual Canal trip. The house was well appointed, more than enough space for everyone to hang out and sleep. I love the decorations and style of the home. A lot of love in that old house! Thanks for helping with our memories!

Enjoyed the water view, hot tub, lawn games, BBQ grill and short walk to town.

Had another lovely 4th of July at the Yellow House with friends and family. Plenty of room for all to spread out, from watching movies to playing games. They even allowed us to hold a small wedding on the lawn. Hate to say good things as I want to keep it a secret! Darnell is a great host and always quick to respond.

Can't beat the location on the hood canal. Huge property with an awesome deck overlooking the Puget sound. Comfortable sleeping arrangements and the property feels very homey. Highly recommend this property and 10/10 would stay again. The owner Don was also very helpful with questions

We had a great stay at "The Yellow House." There was plenty of room for everyone, comfortable beds, and a great location with beach access! We appreciated little touches like binoculars for wildlife viewing from the porch. We saw deer and a seal!
