About this house rental


Immerse in the splendor and beauty of Puget Sound during your stay at The Beach House!

With a fabulous location less than 2 hours from Seattle and 20 minutes from Olympia, the Beach House is located on Puget Sound's Oakland Bay, less than 2 miles from downtown Shelton, Washington. We are on the north side, making it easy to have a Starbucks in your hand in less than 5 minutes and just inside the delivery area for most restaurants offering delivery should you need a break from cooking.

The completely rebuilt Beach House is situated on the sun-drenched, southern facing side of Oakland Bay just inside Hammersley Inlet with commanding views. The home is new inside and out having been rebuilt in 2007, all inside furnishings brand new as of November 2016. The Beach House features an open floor plan with two bedrooms, one bathroom, totaling 950 square feet. House is on well water. Unobstructed views from every room (back bedroom has slight view). The home sits on a 212' ft bulkhead. Low bank water front. The home is perfect for a single family or a romantic couples get away.

Walk outside the two, double French doors onto the large deck and enjoy the 'outside living room' furnished with beautiful furniture, rugs, umbrella and a table fireplace. Barbecue from the deck as you enjoy the views or simply cook inside where the water is always in sight.

The Beach House features expansive outdoor spaces, both covered and sunny, with three different levels of yard. One level sits a patio table, chairs and umbrella for alfresco dining. There is a lounging area with two lounge chairs. Children can reach a lower level with the custom made 14 foot slide from the deck.
Our home is popular with seniors as there are no stairs to get to or inside of the home. The only stairs (about 20) which are easy to navigate, are to the lower yards and beach.

The beach is ever changing with the tides. Tide change can fluctuate up to 16 feet, but the current is almost nonexistent on this side of the bay, allowing us the pleasure of a floating dock year round.

The Beach House is located on a private beach. Each home owns their tidelands. We are the last house on the beach, so you’ll likely see more sea life than another human. A short beach walk toward the marina and you’ll be able to find oysters. Enjoy beach combing, bird-watching and wildlife viewing, including bald eagles that reside a few trees down, deer, blue heron, harbor seals, rabbits and raccoons.
If you're really lucky, you'll spot the pod of 4 Orca whales that pass through occasionally. Lately we've had the pleasure of watching a couple porpoises. On sunny days you can see the top of Mt. Rainer.


Historical Shelton and the surrounding areas offer plenty for everyone. Experience Mother Nature fishing, hiking, or visit the Olympic National Forest less than 45 minutes away. If staying put is what you like, our historical town has an old fashion drive-in theater, quaint boutique shops and even a casino for those feeling lucky! Children will love the playground at Kneeland Park.
There are also several great golf courses nearby. A local visitors guide at the home gives you plenty of great ideas to do during your stay.

**Please note, we rent our home for others to enjoy for a short period each year. We hope you have the opportunity to stay and enjoy it as much as we do. Please keep in mind this is a home and not a sterile square hotel room, as perfect as we think it is, it is a home all the same. If perfection is your cup of tea, our home probably isn’t the fit for you.
Any questions, please ask 253. 961. 3116 we’re happy to help!

Had a great time here for a long weekend with the family. It is close to the road but once you are in the property everything focused on the sound. We spent our time swimming and paddle boarding and enjoyed ourselves. Would certainly recommend.

This house was an amazing, peaceful stay. Waking up to the views of the bay and hills, plus the wildlife watching was perfect. We saw harbor seals and hummingbirds every day, deer, jelly fish, crabs and ducks. The patios are cozy. The bed was super comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with anything you need. We were welcomed with a goody bag of wine, chocolate covered pretzels, sparkling juice, and a giant cupcake which was perfect for my husband’s birthday. The only downside was the bathroom space is small and it’s well water, smelled like sulfur and this city girl couldn’t get used to it. The driveway was intimidating, having to back down while avoiding oncoming traffic but once you figure out the right angle it’s easy. The privacy is worth it. Loved this rental!!

A beautiful house right on the water, with well thought out amenities. We had a great time relaxing and enjoying the views of the water. We would definitely recommend this rental to others -- it is well appointed and cared for. One note -- there is definite road noise and the driveway back in does take some getting used to. For us, the road noise eventually just became part of the background and with practice, backing into the driveway was no problem.

My sister and I stayed here while I visited her from MI. She lives in nearby Olympia. The house was right on the water as pictured. It was very clean and cozy. The outdoor space was perfect for enjoying the weather and we were able to watch seals swim and even had an eagle doing fly-bys. The driveway is tricky to pull out of because the house sits right around a turn in the road making it difficult to see oncoming traffic. Backing in is easy after the first time, but if you are a very timid driver or hate the thought of backing in, this may not be the place for you. There is road noise all day and night because of how close it sits to the road, but for us, the view and accommodations made up for that. I would stay here again.
