Lovely comfortable condo
The condo was very clean, well stocked kitchen and very comfortable. It has a beautiful view of the water. Loved sitting on the back porch in the morning enjoying a cup of coffee. The only disappointment was the TV offered only streaming services. We did not have any cable services which we regularly watch. Other than that, everything was wonderful.

Charming and quiet way to enjoy Port Ludlow
We loved our time here. The house is updated with great appliances and furniture. Location is utterly charming- you can sit on the back porch and watch the boats sail by, or take a short walk down to the marina to see the boats up close. Very quiet neighborhood, and we slept like babies even with the windows open for fresh air. Bring your binoculars for boat watching!

Summer Getaway!
We came from Alberta, Canada. Group of five. This home was wonderful. Very cozy and in a very nice, quiet area. The neighbours were very friendly. The beach out by the marina was nice and sandy, which we loved. Went for supper the first night in Port Hadlock at the Farm & Sea Grill and their Clam Chowder is absolutely fantastic. Would definitely come back!

Peaceful waterside home
The property was very comfortable and clean with a well equipped kitchen. As we came in June, it was very relaxing to go to sleep with the windows open and the water lapping at the shore and the occasional boat puttering by. While the neighborhood is exceptionally quiet, I would suggest earplugs if you are a light sleeper as there were a handful of boats that head out at dawn or shortly after. We enjoyed both the front and back porches but the views from the back were really enjoyable. We were sorry we didn’t bring binoculars to watch the birds and boats. Don’t miss the beach walk; I suggest walking behind the hotel, to the point and then down to the beach when the tide is out. The community is small with only two restaurants, gas, bank and a convenience store so make sure you come prepared. The location was great for our trips to Bremerton, to see friends in Port Orchard, and to eat oysters on the Hood Canal. We would definitely stay here again!

Family Trip to Hood Canal
My family and I had a wonderful stay! The home is beautiful and had everything we needed. We were able to enjoy an incredible view of hood canal and Mt Baker off the back patio. We rented kayaks and even saw a eagle and a harbor seal! I will be recommending this location to friends and would love to stay again.

Perfect mid winter getaway
We were traveling with three generation and each of us found something amazing about this property. The house is well stocked with books, puzzles, legos and board game. The master bedroom has a rocking chair. The master bathroom came with jetted tub and view of the puget sound. The bathbombs added that tinge of luxury. The kitchen has an impressive number of spice, pots and pans. This property sits close to the inn at port ludlow. If you are planning to eat out at the restaurant, make sure you get your reservations early. On clear day the sunsets were gorgeous and we kinda got spoiled about drinking our coffee in the mornings hearing the wave crash, sitting on the red Adirondack chairs. You will have a petite size beach to yourself and you are expected to stay only to the area directly in front of the house. Our kids had fun making sand castles. Although we did see neighbors walking across the strait of the beach. During our visit apart from port ludlow, we discovered the historical town of port Townsend , fort warden and poulsbo.

Wedding/50th birthday celebration
We came up for a wedding in Port Ludlow and a belated 50th birthday celebration. This property is a show stopper and I cannot say enough great things about it. The views, the bedrooms being far apart for privacy, the quality of everything. This is not your typical VRBO rental, it shows that someone really loves this property. Pottery Barn furniture isn't usually found in most of these places. Everything you need kitchen wise is here too. We loved every second of staying here. So much so that we went home and bought the identical Adirondack chairs we fell in love with there. Now if only ours came with that view!

The Happy Place is the perfect home away from home. The house is tastefully outfitted with all of the essentials and the kitchen is a cook’s delight! Enjoy tranquil views of the boats sailing on Admiralty Inlet and listen to the peaceful sounds of the waves gently lapping the shore.

Comfy, clean and great location
The photos and descriptions were all accurate on the site. This condo in the Port Ludlow Marina area met the needs of 2 grandparents, daughter, son-in-law, and 4 year old grandson. The condo was clean, kitchen was well equipped, beds were super, bathrooms were clean, and the large open areas of kitchen, dining and living /TV room allowed a large place to gather together. The east facing deck kept us cool in the afternoon and evening and we enjoyed the wild life viewing. Port Ludlow was centrally located so our group was able to do a wide range of things like bike ride along Lake Crescent, attend the farmers market at Port Townsend, and spend some time at a few beaches. The manager was easy to work and we look forward to a return visit. Retired Seattle Couple and family

Rooms with views
Nicely appointed and well maintained property. Layout allows for room to spread out. Backyard is all beach. Watching boats go by from the Adirondack chairs was great. All linens and towels were super perfumed with what ever flavor dryer sheets were used. The smell was inescapable. Large bath upstairs was overwhelmed with bath oils smells. Happily did not have to spend much time in there. Listing has a strict no pet policy and was the reason for our choice. However, the dog food, dog bowls and severe allergic reactions to dogs was present. Don't pick this place if you want to avoid dogs due to an allergy.

This home was very comfortable, even when there is six inches of snow, which is rare. We were prepared with our XC skis and took advantage of the many walking/skiing trails in the area.
