About This Home

As of August 2024

This beach cottage is about as cute as it could be! The historic community of Salmon Beach is tucked away from civilization, but literally 5 minutes from the "normalcies" of the "up the hill" life. The SW exposure will entertain you & cause you to gain a new appreciation for the word "relaxation". Perfect bedroom has you looking out to the wonderful view, and the spacious deck allows you to really take in the panorama of the Narrows Bridge(s), the Olympic Mountains and the glorious sunsets! The sea life is fantastic, with sealions, seals, Orcas, otters, the occasional gray and/or humpback whale (really!), along with seagulls, eagles, Caspian terns, Great Blue Herons, cormorants & more. This magical place will be your own slice of paradise!
