About this house rental
Welcome to Shore Lane Beach House - your water front retreat!
Less than 2 hours from Seattle right on Puget Sound's Oakland Bay near Shelton, Washington. Experience waterfront living at its best.
ABOUT SHORE LANE BEACH HOUSE ~~
Escape to the beautifully decorated water front retreat. Shore Lane Beach House offers three bedrooms, one and 3/4 bathrooms on three levels totaling 1400 square feet. All rooms (except for one bedroom) have superb views of the water. Stay in touch if needed utilizing our high speed WiFi connection.
It is a great set up for adults and kids. Send the kids to the downstairs living area to play games or watch TV in the evenings while you enjoy the view and conversation on the main floor. Kids can sleep in the bunk room with their choice of upper bunk, lower bunk, or trundle.
On the main floor, step outside the French doors onto the covered deck right off the dining and living areas. Enjoy the water view while you prepare meals in the fully equipped kitchen featuring maple cabinets, oil rubbed bronze hardware, and granite countertops with slate backsplash.
Laundry area and 3/4 bath with large shower and 4 ft granite top vanity are on the main floor as well.
Later retreat to either of two upstairs bedrooms. Pick the waterside room with the king bed, cable TV and balcony overlooking the bay, or relax on the queen size bed in the tastefully appointed blue room.
You'll find a full bath with a bathtub/shower, tile tub surround and granite counter vanity on the third floor as well.
ABOUT THE WATER ~~
Shore Lane Beach House is located on the east side of Oakland Bay (which is just south of Hood Canal). Look across the water and see the city of Shelton - the lights are beautiful at night. Saunter down a few stairs to the beach which is great fun to beach comb any time of year. You'll see playful seals frolicking and salmon jumping in the water. At high tide, you can catch fish off the lower deck or simply cast from shore and reel them in! The water is surprisingly warm in summer. You can swim, or just sit with feet in the water, face in the sun for a truly Northwest Puget Sound experience. In winter it is just beautiful. You can even kayak on the calm waters of Oakland Bay.
THINGS TO DO ~~
Shelton and the surrounding areas offer plenty to do for everyone. The covered deck is the perfect spot to enjoy the winter waters - just bundle up if it's chilly. Or build a campfire right in the back yard and take in the view. Take a walk up the beach for an hour and you won't see any houses, just the wonders of nature. Experience fishing, wildlife viewing, or visit the Olympic National Rainforest Park.
Perhaps you'd like to catch a flick at the drive-in movie theater, try your luck at the Little Creek Casino, take the family out to eat, or enjoy Kneeland Park with its gigantic playground, grassy areas and beautiful picnic shelter.
Now, if GOLF is your game, you will not be disappointed. Truly test your skill at the prestigious Alderbrook, Gold Mountain, or Trophy Lake golf courses, all 20 to 35 miles from Shore Lane Beach House.
Don't miss the beautiful heated private community pool. It is open all summer (nominal daily fee) for guests of Shore Lane Beach House to use. It's just 2/3 mile away!
We are certain you will have a relaxing vacation and will want to return soon to Shore Lane Beach House!

We had such an amazing time at this property! It’s unbelievably beautiful with the most awesome water views and multiple deck and yard options for viewing and relaxing. We spent hours relaxing on the lower deck while our kids played on the beautiful private beach. The kitchen and house were so well stocked with everything we needed and super clean. Shelton is not too far away with a Walmart and Fred Meyer to easily stock up on anything you need for groceries.
The highlight of our trip was definitely the morning that we got to see Orca whales right from the lower deck of the house - so amazing!!!

4 of us over 70 year olds stayed for 5 nights. only minor problems were the steepness of the stairs, bad knees made them somewhat difficult. And a card table would have been nice for the 2000 piece jig saw that ended up on the dinning room table. We loved the location and the house.

Our family enjoyed our stay. There is some construction next door, but very little work while we were here; that will end when it is completed. About 30 minutes from Shelton. Make sure to read the fine print (i.e. You can be charged $25 for leaving a window open or unlocked). We would come back.

Super quiet neighborhood and a gorgeous house. The kitchen was well stocked. The house was immaculate. The fire pit and the little beach area were highlights for the kids. If we could go to this place every year we would.

Upon arrival house is clean and inviting. Kitchen well stocked with pans, baking dishes, gadgets, dinnerware, etc. Plenty of bathroom towels etc. Bed comfy.
Owner replied quickly when contacted. Would use again in the winter. To many stairs for us to use in summer when you would want water/beach access.

This home was perfect for our trip to the Pacific Northwest.
This was the cleanest property we have ever visited and was exactly as described. The home was well stocked with items we would need in the kitchen and laundry, which was greatly appreciated, as we had a long flight and were in a new time zone when we finally got to the property.
Our rooms were warm and cozy, and the wall heaters and extra blankets kept us comfortable as the outside temps dropped
The neighborhood was totally quiet and the home was easy to access.
We couldn’t recommend this home more highly.

We had a wonderful stay at Agate. The house was clean and orderly with many big and small amenities provided. The views of the sound are remarkable! We loved the fire pit space and all of the porches/decks. We saw a deer on the beach our first day and saw several seals in the water throughout our stay. The house is about 15 minutes to “town” but the drive is so beautiful, it goes by quickly. My only negative is that it seemed to be spider season. There were none inside or outside when we arrived but throughout our stay, we’d wake up to massive spider webs, mostly outside. But the next day, they’d be gone. I’d highly recommend this spot for a wonderful stay!

Nice location on the waterfront with good outdoor spaces to relax and enjoy our visit. The property had a nice fire pit that came in handy for a couple of cool nights, and two covered porches with views of the bay were great to be outside but out of the weather.
Nice amenities inside for preparing meals and dine.
Only drawback was the main bedrooms mattresses are aged and need replacing.

We had just the best time together at this dutiful home. It had everything we needed to enjoy each other and the great PNW.

Pleasant peaceful neighborhood with privacy, loved having 3 different decks to view the waterfront, watched harbor seals swim by several times during our stay. The property felt very comfortable and homey, with nice personal touches like cozy blankets to wrap up in watching the evening sunset or early morning sunrise, highly recommend!

Everything as stated in their listing. Spacious living space, comfortable seating, clean and comfy. Property manager was “Jill on-the-spot” when we couldn’t download the combo to get in even though she was out of state. Hopefully we can stay the again in the near future.

This was our second time in this home. We watched beautiful sunsets over the Bay from the deck while enjoying good conversation and a glass of wine. I have an adult son with autism and it was wonderful for him as well as his sister and I for him to have his own space. The set up of the house is three floors and he got to use the bottom floor which opens out onto a small yard that leads down to the beach. He had the quiet he needed and the space to build Legos and play video games.

Enjoyable stay in the water
Had a delightful stay in this spacious home on the south sound. Check in was easy and stream less. Enjoyed a beach walk during low tide, relaxing and catching up with friends. Highly recommend this home.

Nice property, great property manager, not toddler friendly unless you bring a baby gate
When we first got to the property the house was great and it had a good view of the water. When you walk in it looks great but notice the steep stairwell right by the kitchen.
Without having a baby gate, you have to constantly keep an eye on the babies or keep them cooped up in a playpen
The beach was a little hard to get down to for my pregnant wife, since there is a row of boulders you have to walk down and either jump down or climb down. Minor inconvenience but figure it would be good to mention.
The kitchen was stocked fairly well in terms of utensils and even had some basic necessity like salt and pepper and sugar. The cupboards where the pans were wasnt cleaned very well at all, and was off-putting when we were checking everything out.
The rest of the house was fine in terms of cleanliness and was very happy to not find any bugs or spiders in the house.
The outside firepit was nice to have, and the deck leading down to the water front was nice to have too. I would have liked if there was a bench down there or something to sit on and watch the water. The outside chairs were covered with spider webs and spiders/eggs. I would suggest maybe some folding chairs in the downstairs area we could take out as needed?
The property manager was very quick to reply to my inquiries and was very accommodating allowing an early check in, and company to visit.
Beds were comfortable, chairs were comfortable, adequate toilet paper and paper towels, and other necessities.
The location in general made it a little out of the way as expected, as the agate store is the closest one and while it has things you would need, being a convenience store it's very overpriced and it's a decent drive to get anywhere else to buy groceries. Would definitely not recommend walking to the store or anything because of the roads. Would be dangerous with the winding roads with no side walks.
Overall I definitely recommend staying here, just be sure to bring a baby gate if youre bringing a crawling / walking toddler.
Some items they had for use include: Coffee maker (with filters), toaster, dishwasher, over range microwave, full refrigerator that works well, as well as a built in icemaker in the freezer, some pots and pans, measuring cups, silverware, small highchair in the closet, extra linens, throw blankets in the ottomans in livingroom, propane bbq with necessary utensils (though one of the "burners" wouldn't light), firepit with nearby hose, and outdoor chairs.

Very Remote
This was a nice home on the sound, very nice views of the water, and was clean. Our downside was the location. It’s very remote, you cannot run to the store if you need something quickly, and we have a daughter with health issues and the drive to get to help would be longer than we were comfortable with so know that it’s out there.

Nice stay for family
Agate beach house location was perfect for my family. Plenty of room to visit without feeling like everyone was crowding each other. Enjoyed spending time down on the beach and watching wildlife (sea otters and bald eagles).

Cozy, Relaxing, Beachfront getaway ….
It was my first time to Shelton area…We had fun exploring the area. We visited an amazing winery, Walter Dacon…..and a cute little Boutique in Union….
If it wouldn’t have rained every day, it would have been great….

Perfect location, Great stay
This house was so much fun. I would definitely stay here again. The location was perfect, views were stunning, water was amazing & the house was really cute & set up almost perfectly for our group. A few things to note: this is a 3 story house, you enter on the main floor, which is kitchen, dining room for 6, living room (w television), balcony w seating for 6 & the bathroom for the basement space which has the washer & dryer in it. A little bit of a tight fit when doing laundry, doors behind doors. The basement has a common area w a twin day bed/trundle & a television & 1 room w bunk beds & a trundle, so you can easily sleep 5 kids downs there. This also leads out to the fire pit & beach access down about 20 stairs & then 10 large boulders. The yard could definitely use some maintenance & the walkway to the beach was pretty overgrown making the walk down a little harder, especially w kayaks, chairs, rafts etc. The upstairs has a queen bed & a king bed that share a bath. The king room is on the water side w a balcony & the queen is on the street side. Again, the setup worked really well for our group, though I did think there was a master suite. The kitchen was pretty tight space wise & could use some updating, to include pots & pans, which I could not find one that was not so scratched that I did not worry about the health risks of using them. The games drawers at the house were very outdated, missing pieces etc & again, a little updating would go a very long way. I am not sure if the listing mentions the tides, but when the tide is out, the beach is unusable not only due to the terrain, but also because it is owned by seafood companies, so definitely check your weather & tide tables before picking a date. We only had one day that it was pretty bothersome to have to wait for the tide to come in far enough. On the bright side, you are allowed to get 10-20 clams or oysters during your stay without issue. Another glowing point was that when both of the propane tanks were empty when we went to grill, I called the property manager after bus. hrs, she answered & directed me to the backup tank within 5 mins. She was wonderful & lovely to talk to on the phone. Overall, this house was great, & I really wanted to give it 5 stars, or at least 4.5, but that was not an option. I just expected a little bit more in the detail category for as much money as it ended up being after all taxes & such. & I'm just a person who appreciates an honest review. Thank you.

Great water view
More than enough space for family of 5 and great decks. Pictures do not do the place justice. Plan to be careful with little ones on the beach thanks to a lot of barnacles and sharp shells.

Perfect getaway with grandson
After a long separation from our grandson, due to the pandemic, this was the perfect way to catch up. We spent a whole month in this house. We were looking for a place where we would have room to play and relax. This house was just right. The owners provided all the cooking amenities we needed and the house was stocked with paper towels and toilet paper. Everything was clean and well organized. The views were amazing. This home was very private. We felt like we were in our own little world. The grounds were perfect for the many squirt gun fights we indulged in. The property manager was prompt in responding to any questions we had.
To sum in all up, we felt very at home there. We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful getaway!
This was a first outing since Covid isolation. The house was wonderful. Terrific view, very clean, well-supplied, and comfortable. We had two good outings: Harstine Island (Jarrell Cove)and Staircase Rapids Loop Trail hike. It was magnificent being in the Olympic National Park again. Thank you for making this home available.

Family Getaway
We enjoyed our stay! We really enjoyed clamming and fishing. It is kind of remote, which was fine for us, but if you're looking to go out to eat or need to shop, do it before heading to the house. You will need to drive into Shelton otherwise, which isn't too far, but not just a run down the street. The views were amazing and the water was fun!

Peace and Tranquility
We loved the three levels. I have a 22 year old son with autism and the lower level gave him the quiet he needs and thus gave the rest of us the space we needed to talk, laugh and enjoy each other's company. There is a beautiful water view and direct beach access. I would recommend this home highly.
