Gorgeously located on the shores of Squamish Harbor in Port Ludlow, this water-view home exudes calm, relaxation, and serene natural beauty in every season. It's a wonderful spot to spend the summer collecting seashells on the beach across the street and winter holidays curled up under a blanket with a view of Puget Sound. The interior living space is full of natural light, with windows throughout the home that frame views of either the ocean or the surrounding evergreen canopy. Come home from a morning on the beach, a kayaking excursion, pickle ball court, or an exploration of the Olympic Peninsula to toss the day's clothes in the private washer/dryer and both prepare and eat dinner with an incredible view. Bring your coffee and dessert outside to the deck, and settle in for a good show or a movie in either the loft or the downstairs den.

This water-view home is located on Squamish Harbor in the peaceful community of Port Ludlow, where you'll be just two miles down the road from Shine Tidelands State Park, a great place for fishing, harvesting shellfish, birding, kayaking, and walking the beach. The small town of Port Ludlow is six miles north, where you'll find the marina, the Port Ludlow Golf Club, and the Village Market for your convenience. And if you're looking to explore this lovely part of the Olympic Peninsula even further, you'll find the charming Victorian town of Port Townsend only 22 miles north.

I rented this for my mother and her friends for her 75th birthday. The house has such a wonderful set up to accommodate different families sharing a space. The view was beautiful and everything was very clean and cozy.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Nov 2025
This home was exactly what my friends and I needed for our gathering. There was enough space for all of us. Walking through the door, it felt like stepping into the 90s because of the decor. But the home was very cozy. The walls were thick that noise did not penetrate which was a plus since we had a toddler with us who was able to nap. The location was conveniently close to the main road. We were able to explore the nearby areas. The small dock by the water was a nice spot to relax. Unfortunately it was raining during our stay so we couldn’t enjoy the outdoor amenities much. The only negative is the WiFi connection which was weak so we couldn’t watch a movie or play video games. So be prepared to find alternative ways to enjoy yourselves but we were able to play board games and enjoy each others company. Overall, a great place to stay considering the location and the cost! Worth the stay in my opinion!

Kitchen setup was good but we could have used more small plates. Can lights in living room do not work. Four adults over 70 and both wives in wheelchairs and we will stay again
6.0 / 10.0Average·Sep 2024
Positives: The view from the house and porch is beautiful, beds were comfortable, plenty of parking and quality space for kids to run around and play on the grass and on the basketball court. Negatives: Beach access is difficult with missing steps, nearby ramp to beach is on private property and is not to be utilized per owners. Primary issue within home was lack of response/service. Dishwasher was broken, and there was a significant smell in the hot water, both sinks and showers. When I informed Vacasa, I was told that the maintenance team would be notified, but no one came by and I received no further contact. This was a significant issue as we had young children on the trip and they didn't want to take showers because the smell was overwhelming to them.
