About this property

Canal O'Neal, Gathering Place on the Hood Canal in Belfair, WA

Stunning views, open floor plan, beautiful outdoor dining and seating  area, hot tub, water access, dock, indoor and outdoor games and much more. The inside has four different comfortable areas to gather with local art and cozy sitting areas.  We also offer 4 bedrooms with a separate bunkhouse, a comfortable sofa bed plus princess in the pea sleeping library.  

The house is located in Belfair, WA overlooking the Hood Canal (part of the Puget Sound) with sunset and Olympic Mountain views, equipped with kayaks, stand up paddle boards and a dock.  A large lawn on the water with a fire pit and a grill on the upper deck.

Our family has made memories in this home for almost forty years.  Our dad grew up loving to spend time on this part of the canal for it's warm water, sunsets, seafood and views. He and my mom found this house and made it their home.  My brothers and I have been lucky enough to raise our kids coming on vacations and spending holidays here.  The grandchildren have wonderful memories of kayaking, learning to swim, holiday joys, and tons of family fun.  In the summer the water is the warmest in the Pacific Northwest with an average of 75 degrees.  

When our dad passed and mom wanted to have a smaller space full time, my husband and I decided to turn this home into a place for all to be able to make memories in.  We have had weddings, memorials, bachelorette and bachelor parties, birthday celebrations, work retreats, family and friend reunions.  We hope you choose to book with us and make some great memories too.

This is a fantastic house right on the water, with a great dock for swimming and lots of kayaks and paddle boards. There is a beautiful view from throughout the house and decks. It is great for a large groups, plenty of sleeping accommodations, lots of space to spread out and relax, and a very large kitchen to prepare meals. A wonderful place to celebrate with family and friends.

Great property for a large group! Well appointed with tons of spaces for hanging out and enjoying the beautiful views. Our group especially loved the bunk house, the reading nook and the fabulous LP album collection with great sound system! It was absolutely wonderful.

Wonderful house on the hood canal

Excellent condition with plenty of sleeping for 12 people - no one had to share a bed. The tide here is pretty crazy, really shocking and interesting if you've never seen a really low tide before!

Beautiful home

This beautiful home was perfect for our trip. It has a number of indoor spaces that offer amazing views of the water and mountains. It is well stocked and would be perfect for a large group offering all kinds of activities indoor and out. We enjoyed our stay this winter but would love to come back in the summer to enjoy more of the outside fun.

Simply the best

I organized a family reunion at this house consisting of two seniors, six adults, four children, and one infant. Everyday of our visit someone thanked me for finding the perfect house. It was a vacation to remember. I am so grateful to the O’Neal’s for allowing us the chance to share in their beloved family home.

My family and I booked on Father’s Day weekend and the location and views of this home are amazing. The house had everything that we needed to prep our meals and was well equipped with games for the kids. I will definitely book this home again next year. Beth was awesome and took care of all our needs. Thank you for everything Beth

Everything we hoped for & more!

This is a gorgeous home, big enough to contain all 13 of us (ages 3-75) comfortably, and yet it’s really cozy. The toys are epic - kayaks & SUPs, ping pong, musical instruments, foosball, chess, stuffed animals, work out room & hot tub - we used almost everything! The kitchen is fully equipped with particularly nice cookware & tableware. We loved every minute of our stay.💕

just right

Site is suitable regardless of the complicated weather and tides! Had three generations of my family which resides literally all over USA and Europe! Everything from interior spaces, games, music and outdoor dock, basket ball hoop, paddle boards and canoes were perfect. Instructions laundry and kitchen also perfect!

Beautiful home, incredible views & location, awesome amenities!

Our group had a great time at this amazing property! We were at max capacity but with multiple living rooms and the deck, everyone still had space. The location is absolutely beautiful right on the water, the whole property is well maintained, and it was amazing to have access to all of the kayaks, SUPs, oars/paddles, and life jackets! Everyone had a wonderful time and we would not hesitate to rent this property again in the future. It was our first time on the Hood Canal and we were pleasantly surprised by how warm the water was!

Everything you need for a chill family vacation

Fantastic, very clean house on the water that’s been thoughtfully stocked with all the amenities you need for a relaxing vacation with friends and family - from pingpong to board games to kayaks and croquet :-) And if you’re in the mood for cooking/baking - there’s even a stand mixer and a Vitamix blender! We were two families (5 adults and 4 kids 10-14) and we had a wonderful time. Loved the turntable and the classic records as well.
