About this house rental

Located in Hood Canal, this charming house for $337 per night is a fantastic choice for your next vacation. The perfect 'beach house' experience awaits you at the Madrona Cottage at Pleasant Cove. The newly remodeled 3 bedroom, 2 bath home on the shores of Hood Canal has been the treasured jewel of our family for 4 generations and we can't wait to share the magic of this idyllic spot with you: A low bank waterfront with expansive tidelands gives you easy access to clams and oysters, and of course Hood Canal's pristine waters. Also famous for the warmest waters in Puget Sound reaching 70 degrees in Pleasant Cove during mid-summer. The waters of Hood Canal are perfect for all water sports. Madrona Cottage boasts a deep wooded lot (one acre) next to the salmon-bearing Stimson creek, separating you from the hustle-and-bustle and gives you a serene connection to nature. Unlike many homes on Hood Canal The Madrona Cottage is separated from the road by a wooded buffer. Enjoy your morning coffee from the wrap around deck of the cottage or launch one of the kayaks and explore Hood Canal. Send the Kids to the beach for beach-combing, swimming or join them in the woods to explore the stream. In the fall, experience the struggle of the salmon as they migrate from Hood Canal up Stimson Creek to spawn. Take the family on a nature walk up Elfendahl Pass Road (directly across from our driveway) as it follows the stream. The Tahuya ORV park is 6 miles away up Elfendahl Pass Road as well as a popular spot for shooting sports. There are also many hiking opportunities in the Tahuya State Forest just north of the Madrona Cottage. (https://www.hikingproject.com/directory/8019513/tahuya-state-forest) In the evening enjoy a sunset dinner on the deck with your 180 degree view of the canal and south shore lights. Cozy up around the fire pit, making s’mores or just sipping wine under the stars. Cottage amenities include: fully stocked, large, gourmet kitchen with brand new appliances, all the cooking utensils needed to prepare a gourmet meal, washer and dryer, Keurig coffee maker, propane barbecue, shaded deck, 2 kayaks, 1 row boat. The lawn is big enough to accommodate your lawn games. The public boat ramp is a few driveways away and we have parking for three cars (or, with one car, even your ORV or trailered boat). Perfect for families and groups up to 7 people. We look forward to hosting you! Fall special: view the salmon returning to spawn in our creek in the month of November see reduced rates. **Note: Property is limited to 7 guests. With pre-approval, a limited number of day-guests may visit the property for an additional fee ($25 per guest per day-visit). Day guests may not spend the night.

The house was lovely - very clean and had a warmth to it. The outdoor decks were ideal - both covered though we lucked out with sunshine in Feb and didn’t need cover. Being right on the hood canal was amazing - we sat on the deck 80% of the weekend and enjoyed walking out during low tide. The birds were fun to watch, too. We didn’t end up doing the fire pit but hope to go back and will use it another time. 3 bedrooms worked great though there were only 3 of us. I would stay here again and look forward to it!

We enjoyed our stay in this very comfortable waterfront location. The beds were comfy, linen was nice and bathrooms were clean and well stocked with soaps and nice towels. The kitchen and living area were open and it was a delight to watch the beach and water birds from the kitchen window and dining area. Thank-you for the nice stay, Retired Seattle couple

This spot on Puget Sound is absolutely gorgeous. The water is warm and clear! We did all the activities and really enjoyed ourselves. It was great that it was so shallow in front of this house so our young kiddos were able to safely play in the water without concern. The house is perfect. It's just as described and very comfortable. The owners live next door and they were very hospitable and kind. They gave us space but it was nice to have them there in case we needed anything. We would love to come here again and make this is a regular yearly stay. Thank you so much for allowing us to enjoy a little slice of your paradise!

We really enjoyed our stay here! We had our 4yr old and baby with us. The beach is pebbly with lots of shells and there’s a huge grassy lawn to play on as well. The kitchen is stocked, which was really nice. The owners live next door and they were very kind and left us to ourselves unless we needed something. The kayaks were a highlight, and if you’re like me and need that morning latte, there’s a coffee stand only 2 miles down the road right across from Belfair state park

Our family owned property on the canal just a few driveways away from Rob and Earline's property for over 65 years and we always spent our summers there. It was so wonderful to stay at their beautiful house for 4 days, swimming and kayaking in the warm canal water and enjoy sharing time at the beach with our friends and family again. We especially loved sitting under their beautiful Madrona tree, and spending time on their spacious decks to eat, visit and play games. The house was spacious and clean and it was nice to have 2 bathrooms, though we used the heated outdoor deck shower after swimming most of the time. The well stocked kitchen with it's big island made meal serving preparation so easy. Rob and Earline were perfect hosts (available when we had questions or needed something) yet we always felt we had privacy to enjoy our stay. I've rented houses on the canal in recent years, but finding such a lovely property, situated away from the road, with a good beach and afternoon sun made their property so special.

Nice, clean, updated home that is wonderfully situated on a lovely beach. The view from the house and deck is beautiful and the water was calm and swim-able (the beach is carpeted with oysters, if that's your thing). There are a couple of kayaks, a little dinghy, a nice big lawn and a cool creek nearby - so great spot for kids of all ages. We had no issues with our stay and would defintely recommend it.
