About this property

Alderbrook Area Waterfront Beach Cottage, All Season Escape- Spectacular Views!!

Pointe Marian Beach Cottage is a charming home on a lovely, no-bank, waterfront property with absolutely breathtaking mountain views. Located 3 miles from the Alderbrook Resort, this picturesque retreat is a quick ferry ride or easy drive from Seattle. Despite its proximity to the city, it seems like a million miles away.

Pointe Marian features 2 beautifully appointed bedrooms on the first floor, both furnished with king size beds.

The living room offers a rare treat, a hide-a-bed that WASN'T purchased at a dungeon equipment sale.

The upstairs loft bedroom has a queen size bed and two twin beds--perfect for a couple or a whole family.

You'll love the cozy decor and the cooks in your group will rave about the well-equipped kitchen with a million dollar view!

This romantic cottage will melt your stress away. A jewel perched on the most beautiful stretch of the Hood Canal, the Great Bend, Pointe Marian's vistas will take your breath away. Cuddle by the antique parlor stove and watch the ever-changing variety of water fowl and marine mammals through the huge picture windows. Snap a picture of a harbor seal dozing in the sun. Dine with friends by chandelier light on the deck. Take a dip in the balmy water on a late summer's night.

For those who want to explore the waterways, you'll find a kayak launch on-site. Or, if you don't have kayaks or paddle boards, you can rent them just a short drive away at Alderbrook Resort. If you'd like to bring your motor boat, you'll find the public boat launch just a mile up the road.

Want to go for a drive? Wine tasting and shopping are just minutes away in Hoodsport. Or head up to the Alderbrook Resort for a spa day.

In the mood for a hike? One of the most beautiful and untouched wilderness areas in the world is just up the Peninsula. For an easy picturesque hike, head down to Twanoh State Park on Highway 106.

Are there golfers in your group? Set them loose at the famous Alderbrook Golf Course.

Perhaps you'd like to take an easy stroll from the cottage? Just a mile down the road is to Dos Margaritas Mexican restaurant, a great spot for lunch or dinner. Stop to browse in the antique store on the way.

Right next door to the Mexican restaurant is the Union City Market. Here you’ll find wonderful local art and handmade crafts, as well as delightful local foods and wines.

Then cross the street to the Union Country Store for an ice cream cone (Pointe Marian guests love the Lemon Chiffon) and peruse the quirky collection of merchandise.

Whether you're eager to get out and explore or you prefer to laze away the days relaxing at the water's edge with a book, you'll want to make Pointe Marian Beach Cottage a regular destination!

About the host

Hosted by Kathy

Host profile image
We are the Wells family--Darrell and Kathy, Peggy and Bill and the kids. We're proud to call the Seattle area home and love to explore the limitless beauty of our region.

Why they chose this property

Having a little waterfront cottage has always been our family dream. We found this gem the summer of 2011 while vacationing on the Hood Canal.
Before we knew it, we were the proud owners of Pointe Marian Beach Cottage, a place we named it in honor our mom/grandma/great-grandma. She was a passionate fisher-woman and had a deep kinship with nature. She would have loved this place.
We are honored to share it with you. We hope you'll make some wonderful memories of your own here.

What makes this property unique

We all live for the times we can spend relaxing with our family at Pointe Marian. As owners of a 70 year old waterfront house, though, we also spend a good deal of time working on maintaining and improving the place. The biggest problem Bill and Kathy have is keeping Darrell and Peggy on task when they'd rather be bird-gazing.
One of our favorite things is getting up at dawn to watch the seals as they awake on our neighbor's swim float.
