Perch above the water
Snug cabin with panoramic view of Hood Canal enjoyed from living area or roomy deck. Owner directed us to what was open in off-season. Kitchen supplies adequate. Serene view of Olympic Mtns through moving fog. Easy access to Lake Cushman and southern end of national park.

Beautiful View, Great Host, Great House
Gene's little house is not new and modern. Since we don't like new and modern, it was perfect for us. A house with "soul". Pretty much everything you'd need is there. The bed is super comfortable! And Gene is super responsive, plus interesting to talk with.
This is a good find!

Great place!
Came for my niece’s wedding at Alderbrook Resort. It was the perfect location, only 3 minutes drive to the resort (and a lot more affordable!). Beautiful view, clean house, everything you would need. Very cozy and quiet. Highly recommend!

Two lovely nights on the Hood Canal.
This place was fantastic. The location was breathtaking. It was clean. All necessary supplies were available. We were able to use the grill on the deck while we watched the golden hour fall over the water and mountains. Truly magical and a fair price.

Nice place! Too small for 6 people.
Nice location. Glad there was just the 2 of us. Too small for 6 with just 1 bathroom and an additional futon and blowup bed? Beautiful views and comfortable bed. Close to Alderbrook and all its attractions. Just right for the 2 of us.

A Sanctuary - perfect spot for relaxing!
View was amazing, area was exactly what I had hoped for; a relaxing few days in between work travel to relax and enjoy nature and all its beauty. While off the beaten path, the neighborhood has some fun restaurants close by - and the quiet nature of the area was enjoyed immensely . Property well managed by the host.

What a View!
Clean, comfortable, cozy and quiet. Bigger than it looks in pictures. Perfect for our family of four (our kids are teenagers). View so good you’ll wonder what you did to deserve it. Kids loved catching crabs and gathering oysters. The Hood Canal is a short walk downhill from the cabin. Host Gene was fantastic. Knowledgeable about the area with excellent tips on how to pick and cook oysters and where to hike without crowds (Staircase trail in Hoodsport - about 45 minutes away). A curious seal hung around us all day on the canal. Stayed a good distance away and would pop their head up every half hour or so. Very cute. Saw one harmless jelly fish. Watching the tides go out and come back in was amazing for us Michiganders. From Union we explored Ruby Beach and also drove to Mount St. Helens. Perfect!
Gene is truly an amazing host!! The place is small but perfect. Nicely tucked in under the trees which keeps the place cool. I suggest that you use the stairway at the back of the home down, cross the street, to the padded area right on the beach. There is a fire pit and when the tide is high you can jump right in off the padded grassy area. Bring corn hole and set it up there. We brought our paddle boards too, We couldn't be more happier with the place. You will not regret this stay!!
