Microwave, fridge & freezer in the room. 6. Temperature perfect. 7. Coat rack on the wall, as you come in. 8. Quiet. Hubby can't hear me talking when I'm inside, unless I yell! 9. Love the floors! Negatives: 1. Faucet handles needs upgrading. 2. No stopper on the sink. I use a Kleenex, to prevent anything small falling in the pipes. 3. The room is not so bright. I have to turn on the TV for additional lights, so I can see what I'm doing. I cut & sew! I need ceiling lights! 4. No EWTN TV. 5. The bathroom and the bed is not ADA Compliance. I have bursitis, so it's difficult for me to climb up the California Bed. We have that at home, but I get up on a step stool, to get in/out of bed. The tub is hard to get out, specially if it's slippery.

We were in room 25, with a gorgeous view of the Sound. We had two queens (haha, so very appropriate...!). The mattresses seemed new and were comfortable. The room was clean, the sheets fresh, the kitchen area clean and stocked with Keurig cups (well, that's a bit of a downer, but not their fault). The room was very nicely decorated with all kinds of quirky prints and hangings, making the room cheerful and fun. The TV was quite large (55" ?). The halls and other common areas were clean and well decorated, again cheerful and fun. The grounds include a parking area for RV's which was well organized, neat and tidy, with a couple green areas and some cabins on the North side, but that wasn't the main event... ! They have a very pretty little stream that even had a few flowers when we visited and which empties into the sound, where the estuarial mix of fresh and salt waters attracts birds (and fish? need to find out!). They have a small pebble beach with steps leading down where they said it is fine to launch a kayak or two! To the South there is a power plant outlet! My excitement might puzzle those of you who don't fish in Winter, but not only is it deep and fast running, but may be warm enough to attract fish. It, like everything else we saw about the waters, appeared clean and free of trash, as one might typically see nearby RV camping. And..., There are some lovely businesses nearby at HoodCanal. We had coffee there at a very nice little shop (HoodCanal Coffee, who'd have thunk it?) and then ventured next door to the little wine shop, which was FULL of curios, art, and so many lovely little things. The proprietress was wonderfully chatty and really helped fill us in on the area. And that leads us to the people... ! The nice lady running the hotel was out of the office (pro tip: there is a call button to the right of the office door that pages her, so just tap that), but popped up quickly. She was very friendly and, when we ran out of coffee creamer, which we mentioned in passing in the hall, she told me not to bother coming down the stairs to the office and that she would bring it right up, which she did. She also had more information on the local area that was very helpful. We were very pleasantly surprised and will certainly be back... with kayak(s)!

I prefer this place over the expensive Alderbrook suites and Oceanside stays. It's a laid back atmosphere, so much hiking behind the park, you can bring your dog and nobody minds, there's even an awesome easily accessible forest dog trail. This is affordable yet safe and private. You can kayaks, swim, shrimping, crabbing, boating and it's safe. Theres a gazebo and fire pit with bbq grills. Completely affordable. I'd recommend this for any family with or without pets, or solo traveler who wants to get away, far better than air bnb prices and rules.

Beware of the noises if you are sensitive to it: road/building/bathroom/fans etc. Front desk doesn't have earplugs so bring some with you or you can get some at the market like we did. All considered, I still would recommend this motel for your stay in the area.

They also have a small dog run, which is awesome. Best suited for larger pups due to the gap size of the fence. The price was super reasonable and there's a water view hot tub. A super short drive to Hoodsport. Not really any comfy lounging areas in this cabin so I'd recommend the owners add some cushions to the benches and some hooks on the wall for jackets. Otherwise perfection and we will be back!

When I walked in the bathroom it was worse. Also the place had an ant infestation along with other bugs. On the toilet there was a booger along with the ceiling upstairs above a mattress. The light was falling apart and the door to the downstairs bedroom is missing. Apart from the many boogers, there was also dirt and grime on the upstairs ceiling. Usually I would be like oh no problem they can't easily reach the ceiling but upstairs it is like 4 feet up so you can't even stand up all the way. They also mentioned that the water was only hot for 15 mins and needed 30 mins to reset but I was able to shower for 5 mins max and the water turned freezing. I know this isn't a big deal but the curtains are also see through so you never 100% have privacy unless you're in the grime filled bathroom. Other than that, it was nice how many things there were to do. But, it still didn't make up for our cabin

I was impressed by how many fun things there were to do. The boat and paddle board rentals on sight were great to have, though we didn't have time to take advantage on this trip. I really enjoy a good classic a resort, but sometimes they are hard to find. The massage was amazing. She did such a wonderful job getting out knots and tight spots without hurting me. The only thing I wish there was is fresh coffee in the lobbies in the morning. I hate K cups, personally. They don't taste good and are bad for the environment. Plus making coffee in the room wakes my wife up and I like to let her sleep in. They have a coffee shop, but I wanted it in a mug. We ended up going to the restaurant for coffee and a fruit bowl which was perfect. I loved all the little spaces to hang out and enjoyed writing in the little workspace on our floor. The view and setting made it easy to feel productive and made my writing feel less boring than usual (I'm in school). The staff were all super sweet and thoughtful throughout. So happy that this magical place exists! Excited to return. Our favorite part was Brook the kitty. We are big fans of hers.

Although we were seated quickly and had a nice view of Hood Canal, the service and food have not improved. Our waiter was very bland and gave the impression that he wasn't all that interested in being there. My GF had the crab cakes. As you can see in the photo, each was about the size of a fifty-cent piece. So each cost around $20 and were not worth anything close to that. My miso sturgeon was only ok. Dry and without a hint of miso, it was disappointing. The best item was the side Brussels Sprouts. Crisp and tasty. So, the restaurant and resort are well located, and I'm sure the hotel rooms are nice. You just may want to eat elsewhere.

This comfortable cottage is right on the beach, with a huge deck in the back perfect for sitting and enjoying sunsets and watching the boats and kayaks go by.

The kitchen is well-stocked, and the upstairs loft bedroom very comfortable. There are lots of great features in the area -- hiking trails, a fishing dock, and a nice beer garden. Bill and Sue will make sure you are comfortable and well taken care-of. Highly recommended!

I was not an overnight guest but if the main house is any indication of what the guest houses are like, then you are in for a treat.

Rainier on a clear day. Secondly there is the organ theater. I can't even begin to describe the full room instrument. One must read about it to fully appreciate the history and the creation - but the experience of actually seeing this "instrument" is not to be missed.
