Modern property with breathtaking views from the main and upper floors. With available kayaks, ventured out to watch the otters, fish, and blue herons that frequented the cove. Don’t forget to pack extras, the nearest grocery store was about 25 minutes away. Hiking near the property is limited; the home sits adjacent to highway 101. Out teens enjoyed the pool and fooseball tables, and my wife and I enjoyed soaking up the sun on the deck. The welcome basket was a welcomed touch!

such an amazing property! i think it's the nicest i've ever booked. perfect accommodations for 3 couples and kids. the open layout of the main level was perfect. the view was breathtaking! it snowed about 6" during our stay, which cramped our plans a little- but it was just fine staying in and cozy instead :) The downstairs family/game room was a perfect spot to have our 7 people enjoy the big tv. the beach made for some fun rock-hunting, but bring your beefy shoes- everything is covered with oysters/shells. some previous reviews mentioned issues with A) heat, B) curtains and C) grill, but those have since been resolved. all heaters worked, all bedroom windows had curtains and the grill was brand new. all around, a terrific spot, and i hope we can visit again!

Beautiful views and beach below house!!

Great house right on the water with a fire pit, kayaks, stunning views, a game room, big kitchen and 4 bedrooms. Only downfall was the house clearly hadn't been cleaned well (mess in the kitchen, house not vacuumed, dirty towel left over, clogged shower drain). I texted Vacasa multiple times but never heard back about sending someone to come clean.

This house was a perfect size for our 10 person family and we would love to book this place again in the near future. Furniture in the living room and family/pool room is very comfortable and huge for gatherings. Beautiful wooden dining room table and comfortable chairs/bench. The outside patio was amazing for hanging out and looking at the water, mountains and watching all the animals....Picture-perfect! Kitchen is excellent for families that love to cook and entertain. Kitchen was fully stocked with utensils, pots and pans, cups, coffee mugs, plates, and salt and pepper-spices. A good size refrigerator and oven works great. Has a crockpot, Big countertops and kitchen island have lots of room for baking/cooking. Love having 3 stories as the game room downstairs is great for having fun even late night or watching a movie with the whole family. Pool table is pretty good. However there are a few items that definitely need changing or fixing: 1) The beds were super firm - consensus between everyone that they could be a little softer or have an extra mattress pad. 2) All the heaters in the bedrooms upstairs were not working at all. Heaters work in the bathrooms very well so not sure the issue in bedrooms. 3) There are no trash cans in any of the bathrooms or bedrooms upstairs. Would be nice to have at least one upstairs somewhere even in the bathroom/laundry room would work. 3) Primary bedroom does not have curtains on the side window where the neighbors can see in. I have seen a few past reviews that said the same thing. I had hoped it had been fixed by the time we arrived but should have inquired. It seems like a very simple fix, but there was only a sheet put up instead. 4) Please please please update grill- they need get a new outdoor grill. I just saw several reviews that stated the same thing. It's really old, very dirty and wasn't functioning properly. By the time we wanted to use it, it was on Thanksgiving Day, we didn't want to ruin anyone's holiday by coming out to fix it. 5) Soda machine downstairs doesn’t work so not sure it should be included as an “amenity”- kids were s disappointed. We would even have paid for the sodas if it had been stocked. Final review--House, layout, views and location are all worth it! Just hope for a few updates to make it perfect for our next stay!

We absolutely loved our stay at Paradise Cove Retreat especially the beach combing for oysters, kayaking, fire-side chats and ever-present beautiful panoramic views of the water! We will be back:)

What a beautiful home with beyond amazing views! We stayed this past weekend and everything was a 10. Great location, close to Brinnon if you need anything. Beds were very comfortable and bedding was first class. Showers were also great. Only problem is we wanted to stay longer. Local contacts of Leslie and Jessica (Jennifer) were very responsive and awesome! Don't hesitate to book this vacation home.

The house is spacious, sunny, and well-equipped (we never even used the pool table). From the house and especially from the decks, there are tremendous views of the Canal and wildlife. The water is very close but access down to it is for the spry. Excellent access to hiking, HamaHama Oyster Saloon and birding at DosWallips.

Couldn’t ask for a better locale for a family getaway!! Maybe upgrade BBQ Home nice and clean!

Very delightful stay. Loved being on the beach on beautiful Hood canal. There were a couple of things that were not present that we felt should have been provided, namely: a box or two of tissues, TV instructions (especially the upstairs one which we were unable to operate), advertising that should indicate the limitations of programming without a fee. A better condition BBQ.

Fantastic spot, well laid out for big groups with excellent views. Kitchen was well stocked with gear and the games room was also really nice. Could have used some more blankets to be available and the upstairs bedrooms could be improved with curtains however we have no other complaints. We got snowed in on our last night and getting out of the driveway was impossible for one of our cars. Vacasa called us to make sure we were okay (power had died also after a tree took out the power lines down the road) and offered advice on the safest way to head back to Seattle. They were also understanding of our need to leave a car until the snow melts.

We experienced a septic blockage and sewage backed up into the house running all the toilets in the home over and causing water to leak w the ceilings and thru the can lights. We immediately called the area manager and was told we would be moved. We were then offered a house a hour north of our current house. We were at this current location because we were spreading the ashes of our parents at the seal rock camp ground. So that would not have worked. So we went online and the only property we could fined was in the lake cushman area whick was still over 35 minutes away from our location. The house we got in lake cushman was considerably smaller and not on the water. Long story short is the septic problem put a big damper on our plans and forced us into a position where we had to settle for a lesser enjoyable area and home for what was already a stressful and emotional weekend. I hope i will be reimbursed for the obvious price difference in the home and some for our inconvenience! Brent Kragerud

My husband and I enjoyed our stay and agreed we would go back to this same rental again. We have done a fair amount of local a nation-wide traveling and used many different rental companies. We rarely would choose to stay in a rental a second time - so it says a lot for us to want to go back. The cleanliness was not ideal - the floors did not appear to have been recently mopped in the kitchen, and the carpet in the dining room had someone else's popcorn in it. That being said, this house allows dogs so we as consumers understand that usually means there will be signs of other dogs (maybe not as clean?). We enjoyed being able to bring our dog, so that outweighed feeling slightly grossed out when I wiped water off the laminate flooring and the paper towel came up looking rougher than anticipated. Also, the blinds upstairs in at least 2 of the bedrooms were not functional, and neither was the pot-filler behind the stove. These were reported to management. Lastly, the one concern we had is that there is not a landline. Neither of us had cell service there and the lack of a landline meant if there was an emergency in the home...you would be in trouble. It would be nice to have a landline for this reason - even if you charged a fee to use it. The first day we were there was windy and we woke up to the power being out. We had to drive about 10-15 minutes to find a cell pocket - but the Vacasa team was very responsive. The power came back on within a few hours after we called. I would rent with Vacasa again due to how wonderful the customer service was when we had an issue - this has not been our experience with other companies that manage multiple rentals.

This place was fantastic! We truly enjoyed the games, the water activities and the quiet location. We brought food for our entire stay—I would recommend everyone do the same due to the location. The house was clean and tidy. It was a perfect stay!

Great location, great home. Very quiet and fairly well appointed. My family had a wonderful time here. A few small things that kept me from giving it 5 stars for the price: ice maker does not work, grill was in poor condition, one of the upstairs beds was extremely firm, no disposal, and the bottom floor was very musty smelling.

Well-cared for and great set-up. Open and lots of room for everyone. Immediate reaction was "When can we come back?" We had 4 generations, 19 months to 90, and it was a great space for us. The kitchen was well-equipped, and we were able to have a few of us working together in the kitchen. The interior stairs made me a bit nervous with the little one (open space/floating stairs) we brought a baby gate but wish we'd had 2. Nice to have 3 bedrooms of similar size and comfort upstairs. The views were as good as shown, made use of a kayak, and large deck. Loved it!

Pros: -Great view and easy access to beach (fresh oysters and clams!) -Plenty of space -Pool table, foosball, tv, fire pit, grill, 2 kayaks -Clean -Kitchen had plenty of cooking gear Cons: -Very loud high pitch tone noise outside that was constant for our entire stay. Messaged property manager without any response. Was very annoying when outside and still slightly audible inside. -1 Shower didn't drain very well -Front door didn't open so we had to use the backdoor -Not enough dishwasher detergent so we had to go out and buy our own -Only 1 match to start a fire in the firepit -Only 1 life vest for 2 kayaks Overall tho we thought it was amazing and would go back again.

The home is well designed and well maintained, with a remarkable view. We'd definitely stay here again. Just a few things would make it a five-star retreat. 1) The wifi is not very reliable so if you want to work remotely from here, be advised video calls are a challenge. 2) There is no live or local TV, and while the streaming services would have provided plenty to watch, it was a struggle to get through a movie due to the poor wifi. The place would benefit from a satellite for the Internet and TV. 3) The main floor deck was lovely but it was very hot to sit there most of the day and would have benefitted from an umbrella. The shade was delightful on the lower deck where the kayaks are but there are no comfy chairs down there to curl up and enjoy a book like there are on the main deck. 4) The highway is not far from the home, and with the windows open at night (since the upstairs is not air-conditioned) we could hear trucks with air brakes and RV traffic through the evening. We enjoyed spectacular moon rises each night reflecting off the shimmering water. When the tide comes in it almost sounds like the water is right under the house. Wonderful natural retreat.

Certainly enjoyed our stay at this house. The views were beautiful, complete with flyovers by eagles. We enjoyed kayaking and making smores. Plenty of cooking utensils and pots and pans for cooking. The grill was great too. Hama Hama Oysters is right down the road and a friendly little store in Brinnon sells wood and additional paper goods which were spare at the house.

Access to the two kayaks was a big hit! They had 2 orange life vests but our life jackets were more comfortable & provided a bit of back support. Oysters right on the beach, firepit with chairs, huge deck, house decor, huge kitchen, pool table & foosball table were all great perks. 3 beautiful bedrooms overlooking the water. The bunk room has 4 bunks and a futon. The basement gameroom was a little musty but the kids didn't mind. Caution-the driveway is steep and gravely, it is easier & safer to get in/out at the South entrance to Paradise cove. The beds were adequate but not luxury. The 3 bedrooms are up steep stairs & the hideabed couch is in the basement. The bunk room is the only sleeping space on the main floor. One bathroom/shower/tub on main floor. Bathroom/shower in master bedroom and one bathroom/shower/washer dryer shared upstairs. No bathroom in basement. Small store with access to shellfish permits 5+min away and Lower Lena lake is not far away for a moderate hike. Overall I would really recommend this place as a great get a way.
