About this property

The Driftwood Cottage at Whiskey Creek Beach NW

Summary:
Strait View Cabin at Whiskey Creek Beach NW

The Space:
Whiskey Creek Beach NW has exquisite views of the Straight of Juan De Fuca as well as easy access to the Olympic National Park. From the Strait View Cabin you can hear the waves crashing all day and night and walk right to the beach, view the Canadian Cascades, Mount Baker and spectacular sunrise/sunsets! Bring your kayak or boat for some of the best fishing and crabbing in the Pacific NW. You will never forget this place! Make it a family tradition!

This quaint Cabin is a real gem! You will love the rustic atmosphere and the view is just breathtaking. Private access, your own outdoor fire pit and picnic table. Features one bedroom with twin bunks and a queen bed in the main living area. Kitchen has cookware, utensils, coffee pot, refrigerator stove and microwave. Take a short walk down to the private beach, or relax on the covered porch and enjoy memorizing sunsets, beautiful tide flats, bald eagles, seals, otters and even the occasional passing whale.

*This is not a pet friendly cabin

Located just 25 minutes outside Port Angeles, our guests can enjoy the serenity and beauty of the Olympic Peninsula with easy access to town and some of the best hiking, hunting, fishing and exploring you will ever find. There is so much to do in and around the Olympic National Forest, so take your time and enjoy your stay!

Nearby Olympic National Park entrances like the Sol Duc, Hurricane Ridge, Hoh Rain Forest, Cape Flattery make this location an excellent "base camp" from which you can explore the Olympic Peninsula and towns like Forks, Neah Bay and beaches like Shi Shi Beach and Hobuck Beach. Explore the parks, walk the rivers (Dungeness, Elwha and many more), kayak on Lake Crescent or drop right in the Strait from our private boat ramp. During the Winter and Fall, enjoy the true nature of the Pacific Northwest: observe the high tides, storm surges and occasional dense marine fog from the comfort of your cozy cabin. You are going to love this place!

What a fabulous cottage in a gorgeous location! The cottage is so charming and comfortable.

We loved our stay in the charming cottage on whiskey creek beach. The natural beauty, the peace and tranquility, the comfort… Everything needed for a perfect quiet get-away. My colleague and I were there for a work commitment nearby but I'd love to return for a longer stay!

Beautiful property and view

Needed a place to stay for an impromptu motorcycle trip around the Olympic Loop. Found this booking and was able to make it happen in short time. Found the unit clean and stocked with everything needed to make our overnight stop comfortable. Check in/out policy was clearly stated and the room was very comfortable. Will definitely be back.

Tiny with spectacular views

It was just my spouse and I, so this tiny cabin was perfect for us. Very clean and the views are spectacular. We had minor communication issues caused mostly by lack of phone service in the park. The checkin instructions were sent 3 days ahead but not until after we were out with little service. I was expecting them in the App, so we didn’t see them. I would still highly recommend this property.

Charming Tiny House

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Driftwood Cottage. We spent 2 days (should have planned an extra day) exploring Olympic National Park and it was great coming back each afternoon to such a cozy cabin with such a beautiful view. My kids loved exploring the coast, we loved watching the sunsets, and loved keeping the windows cracked at night to let the waves lull us to sleep. The kitchenette was relatively well stocked and we were able to pull together basic meals in the evenings. Everything in ONP is pretty spread out, but the cottage was fairly convenient to a number of the "bigger" sights. I've already recommended the cottage to a friend and her family.

Fantastic location

We stayed at this cabin while visiting Olympic. The view from the cabin was so beautiful we didn’t want to leave. Perfect place to escape regular life and relax on the porch watching the water. We saw a harbor seal, bald eagles, and deer and elk on the road to the cabin. The cabin was clean and very comfortable. Highly recommend!

Absolutely Beautiful!

We would highly recommend this little cabin. While it is tiny it has everything you need. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. The view is amazing! So amazing!! It stays warm even without the heater not on. I am usually cold but we slept with the window slightly open so we could hear the waves and we/I did not get cold at all. We will definitely be back!!

Perfect, except for…

Wonderful location along the water, very cute cabins. Unfortunately, the water heater in our unit seemed to be going out and very noisy. The caretakers were very responsive and turned it off in the middle of night but unfortunately no hot water for morning showers

Beach Walks

We booked this property for its location and pictures of the setting and view; both meet our expectations. The cabin while well-made and designed for its size, but for two of us it proved, to be very small and hard to get around without bumping into something. It was also hard to relax inside the facility the only place to sit and read was on the bed. Outside had a nice deck, but during our stay, it was still cold and very windy which made it hard to sit on the deck for long and enjoy the wonderful view; in warmer months this would be possible.

Never ending sunsets

This was our first time in Washington state and the location was very beautiful. Well appointed, cozy and cute little cabin that we (me, husband and four year old) loved. Would love to come back.

Charming cottage with great views

Charming little cottage with lovely views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Bonus- getting to fall asleep to the sound of crashing waves. Our favorite part may have been the incredibly sweet kitties, Moses and Midnight, who reside on the property. Maybe some of the sweetest kitties my husband and I have ever met. Will definitely come back and stay again- and hopefully will get to see the new furry friends we made! 😊 Highly recommend this spot for a nice little getaway.

Excellent getaway

This was a short stay for our 25th anniversary and it was just awesome. The check in and check out process was seamless without any delays or personal interaction. The cottage was cozy, beautiful, and made for an excellent getaway. We loved the nautical theme. It was close to nature yet still close enough to town. The stargazing at night was just breathtaking, and the sounds of the ocean at night made sleeping all the more relaxing. We played games, drank coffee, and watched the tide go in and out. Definitely plan on coming back and spreading the word about this diamond in the rough.

The property was beautifully set with water views. The inside is small with bed, bath and kitchenette. It is adequate for two people. The porch and deck is defiantly the winning feature.

Peaceful

My husband, two young children and I stayed here for a couple nights. It was nice and quiet, loved hearing the sounds of the waves at night. Had a warm place to stay with an efficient set up. Did some tide pooling and found some nice gems at the private beach. It was fun to sit out on the porch with a fire pit and roast marshmallows for s'mores in the evenings. We thought the Whiskey Creek Beach property was cool, with different types of accommodations all together. Would recommend this stay.

August on the west coast

The property is exactly as pictured!! The view is fabulous, it's in a camping/cabin atmosphere. Very unique property and just what we were looking for to enjoy the weather and scenery. We toured Olympic and all it had to offer along with some of the local trails around Lyre Conservation Area and Salt Creek Recreation Area - gave Olympic a run for its money. We saw deer each day on our way in and out of the property. Wifi was good and consistent, Verizon service was good- no issues. Hot water and water pressure were good, the place was very clean!! I would highly recommend it to someone looking for a peaceful get a way either to enjoy the quiet or as a launching point for Olympic National Park.

Breathtaking views

My husband and 10yo daughter stayed in the cabin. It was perfect for the 3 of us. The views are beautiful and the property sits right on the water with a small rocky “beach”. It was a great property to walk around. We enjoyed the deck and solo stove fire pit. It was also nice to have some games to play that we got from the office. Property is clean and the cabin was nicely kept. If we come back to the area we would consider staying here again. It’s nicely situated to get to many things around the park.
