This is an awesome stay that exceeded all our expectations! We loved the house-it was very comfortable with everything we needed. The location was perfect for adventuring around Olympic NP and having the ocean steps from the house was a bonus!
This spot is amazing! We explored the beach, watched river otters fishing, beautiful sunsets and coffee in the morning- with the fresh eggs thanks to the great hosts. The place was easy to find, and matched the description! There’s a few spots on the same property- it was quiet and calming! Harrison is a thoughtful host.
We loved that we could walk out to the beach and fish from the shore. The cabin and setting is magical.

Happy Eagle was definitely the place to stay. The cabin was super clean and beautiful. It was right on the water with beach access. Will stay here again. Thank you
House was lovely. Very clean.
Bed was very comfortable.
Views were spectacular. Opened to a private beach.
Great location near Neah Bay and Cape Flattery.
Secret treasure nestled way out on the peninsula. You can visit historic sites, have room for miles, and the best views on the planet. We fished and enjoyed sightseeing for several days. You are RIGHT ON THE BEACH! You won't regret giving this place a visit.

Just steps from the beach.
We had a very nice time. We’ll stocked kitchen. The bed was really comfy. It was so nice and quiet. The beach was great.
Only downfall was Superhog. Took forever. Had to redo all the forms at least 20 times before they got it straightened out. Almost gave up. Loose Superhog and it would be perfect.
