About this property

Hood Canal Waterfront Home - Incredible Views, Wildlife, EV Charger, Kayaks!

Awesome waterfront vacation home on Hood Canal at Lilliwaup Bay! Incredible 180-degree views of the Canal from nearly every room in the home. Level 2 EV charger. Great Kayaking right from the private beach (five kayaks and two rowboats and life vests for complementary use by guests). Nearly 100’ of private low-bank waterfront and tidelands. Oysters and clam digging are nearby (subject to WDFW regulations). The bay is home to Bald Eagles, numerous species of waterfowl, Blue Heron, King Fishers, migratory and resident salmon ( King, Silver, Chum), seals, sea lions, otters, and occasionally Orcas.

The relaxing home is situated on a huge lot away from highway 101 giving it uncommon privacy and quiet compared to other Canal properties. A large deck which overlooks the water is equipped with a gas barbecue. Additionally, located feet from the water is a fire pit for campfires and/or barbecuing.

Built in 2008, the home has modern amenities such as Level 2 EV charger, granite countertops, stone gas fireplace, 50” and two 43” HD smart TVs (Netflix and Amazon Prime Video) with Blue Ray DVD player, high speed internet, stereo system, and a modern fully equipped kitchen. The home is a custom-built home and while it has all the modern conveniences it also has a charming rustic feel to it. Great views from nearly every room including the upstairs loft master bedroom.
By master bedroom has a king bed and the second bedroom has a queen bed. Additionally, the living room has a queen sleeper sofa, and a portable twin XL is available as well.

Kayaking (five included for complimentary use by guests, please wear included life vests and be safe, use at own risk)

Amazing!
This is a stunner property. Everything is there for u to enjoy. We even locked ourselves out and the owner came and kindly unlocked the house for us. The view and accomodations were outstanding and we will for sure be back! Our only recommendation is bring slippers because the main floor has cement floors that are beautiful but cold on bare feet.

A Gem Nestled on the Bay
From the quality of the home to the stunning views of the water, you can’t pass up the opportunity to stay here! Views abound from every vantage point. Kids will love the pea gravel beach and lots of entertainment options with row boats, kayaks, and swimming when it’s warm. We can’t say enough about this wonderful place! As with most waterfront homes this is tucked up next to the neighbors but zero noise pollution and/or highway noise.

Amazing House and Location!
We were beyond pleased with our stay. Jay was super helpful and responsive, and his home is amazing. We were able to ride Go-Karts at Ridge Motorsports, hike at Olympic National Park (with a stop at Lake Cushman!), ride the railcars at Vance Creek Railriders, and enjoy the kayaks on the property. We had a deer and her baby visit us while we sat at the fire pit, saw seals, a bald eagle and enjoyed a stunning view. I would stay here again without a doubt!!

Wonderful Family Memories
The property owner was very considerate and made sure we got into the property during our check-in window. The property is well maintained and absolutely beautiful. Our son (2 years) really loved walking around outside and seeing all the shells on the ground. Thank you again for a wonderful stay!

Jay was awesome to communicate and work with. The property and views are spectacular. You will not regret staying here. It’s worth every penny. He provides a ton of amenities like kayaks, movies, and additional supplies as needed. Pick this place if you can, you won’t regret it.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Clean, comfortable and the most amazing location. We came to tour the Olympic Peninsula and had plans for every day but decided to spend a couple or days right here because it was so relaxing and beautiful. I highly recommend this place. Jay is an excellent host.

Beautiful home with a spectacular view.
Everything about this little home was well thought out and perfect. Warm and cozy. Very clean and kept up. Comfy beds! Great views, as it’s situated perfectly on the Canal. Off the highway, so it’s also quiet. Plenty of activities to entertain you. Highly recommend.

Wonderful stay, top notch host
What a wonderful location to explore all the Hood Canal has to offer. Jay's house is immaculate and he goes out of his way to ensure his guests feel welcome. Property itself is in a perfect location -- easy access to everything and set back off 101 -- and it has everything we could want in a vacation property (great yard, beach, fire pit, etc.). The kayaks and life jackets for guest use were also very much appreciated. Great neighbors too! We hope to return!

Such a gem!
Last year, we had one of the best family vacations ever at Jay's place. It"s beautiful, comfortable and well appointed, and location can’t be beat. We had an incredible time exploring area, flora and fauna. Our nine-year-old said that all he wanted to do this summer was go back to the Hood Canal and that we MUST stay at the same place. We did! And we had another amazing time this year. Thanks, Jay!

Cozy Beautiful Cabin
We loved this waterfront cabin located by Hood Canal. When we first entered the cabin we were welcomed with fresh flowers, a note fro the owner, and a lovely fire burning in a beautiful stone fireplace. The cabin was spotless, has a well appointed kitchen with any tool you’ll ever need, and the large loft bedroom with King bed provides a stunning view of Hood Canal. The views downstairs are equally as gorgeous and invite you to enjoy a large yard and the use of a wide variety of water toys. Five stars.

About the host

Hosted by Jay Hanville

Host profile image
I am a retired lifelong Northwesterner. I love the great outdoors and many associated activities such as fishing, boating, kayaking, wildlife, golf, skiing, Seattle Mariners, live music.

Why they chose this property

I bought the lot in 2007 and built the house in 2008. I was lucky to find this great location and chose it for its amazing views, beach and fishing/boating opportunities! I love the fact that the property is not right on highway 101 (unlike most other waterfront homes on the Canal) which provides for peace and quiet. I have since discovered it is a bird watchers dream (Bald Eagles, Killdeer, NUMEROUS waterfowl, Kingfishers, Blue Heron, etc.....).
