About this property

Private Beach Access Trail, peaceful wooded setting - sleeps 3

Your health and safety comes first to us! We are using products approved by the CDC to eradicate any lingering germs, bacteria, and viruses. We are taking extra precautions by ensuring all commonly touched surfaces are wiped down completely. The linens, towels, bed sheets, etc. are washed per manufacturers guidelines. We are also stocking our home with essential disinfectants and supplies to help you follow the CDC’s guidelines. We look forward to welcoming you to our property and hosting your stay.

The Hen House is a cozy vacation home for enjoying the truly tranquil surroundings this place has to offer. Located on the coast between Port Angeles and Sequim, you have easy and convenient access to the Olympic Mountains, National Parks, and local attractions. If you choose to stay close to home, you have a private trail with beach access, about a 5 min hike along the creek to a lagoon, where the creek meets the Strait of Juan de Fuca. If you stay indoors, you have many amenities including WiFi, cable TV, washer/dryer, kitchen dishes and utensils. It is equipped with everything you will need to stay for a weekend or even for a month at a time. It has clean, late model appliances including a glass top range and a dishwasher and all of the cooking utensils, cookware, dishes and glassware that you will need to fully enjoy your meals. You will want to barbecue outdoors on the grill and share your meals on the porch watching the sunsets and the wildlife that is all around. The cozy, comfortable couch is perfect for relaxing indoors and enjoying the T.V. and stereo or just reading a good book. The quality front loading laundry set is there for your convenience and the bathroom offers a garden tub as well as a shower. The queen size bed and the single bed in the second bedroom will accommodate three people very comfortably.

You will share our private beach trail with our other guests at Hunters' Gate Homes. It is a gated, five minute hike with some large steps which are not easily navigated by small children or inexperienced hikers. Once down to the bottom you will be rewarded with a beautiful beach where the fresh creek water forms a lagoon that spills out into the salt water Strait of Juan de Fuca. You can walk and beach comb to the Dungeness Spit or head in a westerly direction toward Port Angeles.

The quaint little neighborhood store, Agnew Grocery & Feed, is only a five minute drive away, offering fresh local produce and a large selection of wine and other refreshments besides the basic grocery items. Sunny Farms Country Store is only ten minutes away where you'll find a larger variety of items including a deli and a fresh fish and meat market.

There are four restaurants all within a ten minute drive which are all highly recommended. If you want to venture further away, both Sequim and Port Angeles each only a twenty minute drive offer many more choices for shopping and dining.

The start of the road up to Hurricane Ridge and the Olympic National Park is a short twenty minute drive. You can plan longer day trips to the Pacific Ocean and the Hoh Rainforest and return after your adventure to our quiet, restful, tranquil treasure, the Hen House.

Wonderful location

We were given an upgrade to the Sea Breeze so we didn't get to see the inside of this property. The area is very quiet and the views are amazing. The host was very responsive and we loved our upgrade.

Private getaway with eagle's nest

Quiet mobile home park with friendly neighbors and an eagle's nest--didn't see eagles there but saw some at the beach! Owner was very responsive when we needed some kitchen equipment and when I left something behind I really needed.

Great place with a stunning beach

An absolutely magical place to stay. Deer were walking through the neighborhood at all hours of the day. The beach is a five minute walk, and incredibly calm and quiet. Home was very comfy, though perhaps not suited for those with alektorophobia.

Beautiful place

We really enjoyed the central location to all of the Olympic National parks. It was quiet and serene. The deer that roam the property are really something. The eagles nest with the 2 baby eagles were great also! The beach access reminds me of a little escape to something so unexpected before reaching the beach! We had a lovely time and hope to go back again.

Our stay in Port Angeles

Loved the property, the beautiful hiking trails, the mountain views and that we could hear the waves at night. The accommodations were a bit more rundown than expected (new mattresses would help), but overall it was cozy and had the added benefit, for us, of being within walking distance of family.

Cozy Stay near Olympic

This is a great place to vacation near Olympic National Park and Forks. This VRBO had everything we needed and the process of checking in and out is very simple. We loved that the host gave access to several trails around the home, one leading to the ocean. This was a nice touch for those visiting the area to enjoy the outdoors!

Exactly as listed and so perfect

This is not a 5 star hotel but it’s exactly what the listing says and how it’s pictured. Great location for a short, challenging hike to the beach and great location for base to visit Olympic including Hoh and Forks and points west or other parts of North Olympic NP

As chicken owners ourselves we were impressed by how much effort the owners put into the theme. A nice little house, a bit dated but otherwise comfortable. The property was fun with some nice views, a private trail, a resident herd of deer and great flowers. Overall recommend if you need a quiet place to call home while you explore the area.

Very quiet location in a rural type neighborhood, next to the ocean. We had wonderful walks to ocean lookout benches, and the trail to the beach. There is an eagle nest close by, and several private planes gave us a show! Next door neighbors were friendly and kind. Easy access to local food store, and many places in the Olympic Ntl forest. Kitchen was roomy, tv and internet worked great, comfy bed and linens. Would recommend a change of shower head in the bigger bathroom. It's way too large for a 5'5" person - the small area made for a difficult wash. But the other shower worked great. Didn't meet the owner, but I thank them for a delightful stay!

Peaceful trailer in beautiful area

We were blown away by the beauty that surrounds this trailer park. It provided a quiet and serene place for us to come back to after a day of exploring. Hurricane Ridge was so close to here. Lake Crescent, Forks, Bogachiel Rainforst, Port Townsend, and several waterfalls were within an hour and a half or so drive. The Sunny Farms grocery store was perfect for us and had the most fresh chicken we’ve ever had. We cooked most of our dinners here and it was well stocked with everything we needed. The nature trails to the overlook were nice, though a bit hard to access if you have any mobility issues. We attempted to go down to the beach, but it was too steep even for our 40 something bodies. My husband made it down quite a bit, but decided to come back up. I made it down until there was a very large step that I couldn’t safely make it down (and back up). We loved the deer and the babies that greeted us throughout the days. They were so fun to watch!! The beds were comfortable and the tub was nice to soak in after a day of hiking. Our 19 year old son loved sitting on the veranda off the second bedroom and enjoying the peaceful view. There are a few suggestions we have for upkeep, but we will contact the owners directly as they didn’t impede on our stay. Overall, I would highly recommend this property if you aren’t looking for an upscale property and want a safe and quiet place for a home base while exploring ONP.

It is as shown in the pictures. The mobile was older but clean. It is on a dirt road, which usually means a lot of dust, but they had everything nice and tidy. The shower in the master needed tightening as it leaked. I left a note. These things happen. It was well stocked with dishes, cookware, towels, fans (it got hot and these were nice to have). The park itself is super clean and quiet. Perfect for walks or just relaxing. So many deer! There was a bald eagle we saw a few times. If you book an older mobile home and complain, its on you. It really is as pictured. My only concern was thw beach access. It would have been nice to know it was a bit of a challenge to walk. Both my sisters have mobility issues and it would have been out of the question. Just the stairs at the beginning, though a hand raiil is provided, are quite steep. I am a hiker and it was fine for me, but many people could not handle this trail. It would have been nice to know ahead of time. I took picks heading back up from the beach. I will see ot it lets me post. Hard to tell from the picks how narrow some of it is or hapw steep some of the steps are. Over all, i would stay here again. Just plan on driving to a different beach access, of you have mobitily issues.

About the host

Hosted by Marjory Bartee

Host profile image
We feel very fortunate to be able to live in one of the most beautiful and unique spots on the North Olympic Peninsula and to be able to share it with travelers seeking to experience the beauty and wonders of this special area. We are located on several acres of land, partially farmland, partially woodland on the high bank waterfront bluff along the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Our views are of the majestic Olympic mountain range to the south and of Vancouver Island, B.C. to the north. Having a wooded creek as our eastern boundary, we are able to provide the unique access pathway to the beach below. All of our several vacation rental homes enjoy the use of this same five minute hiking trail which is the most treasured feature of our properties. Wildlife abounds in this natural habitat where deer, eagles, river otter, seals and more are seen as an every day occurrence. We work daily at our other businesses where we sell home improvement products such as appliances, flooring, cabinets etc. We strive to have all of our vacation homes reflect our enthusiasm for inviting, quality interiors so that our guests feel truly welcome and at home while they stay in our homes.

Why they chose this property

We have lived on this acreage for many, many years and have gradually developed several vacation rentals on it over the past few years. We love this beautiful land and try to keep it looking it's best for everyone who comes to visit so that they will enjoy it as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

This particular vacation home is the least expensive on the property, and best deal around. It is so quiet and private and when the deer stroll past the porch and nibble on the fruit trees, it is like a storybook setting. When the exquisitely beautiful peacock comes by everyone gets out their cameras!
