I'll start off by saying when I was little My mother and my aunt worked here preparing food for all the groups of divers that would come. My best friend in elementary school lived across the street and so we would run around all over the place. Between riding quads on the hillside above the resort and swimming in the warm hood canal water I have many a fond memory of this beautiful place.

What an amazing place. My wife surprised me for a special weekend in June for my birthday. The service was great, check in waz a breeze, and the location is tranquil and beautiful. Our little cabin was clean and the perfect size. Loved the jacuzzi. Will definately be back. 😊

The resort is lovely and our cabin was clean and comfortable, so we really enjoyed our visit! The highlight was Mirrucha, the resort cat, who gave us a tour of the resort and hung out with us. The cabin had everything we needed to make a simple meal and tea.

Absolutely a gem of a spot. We were here diving and the house reef is really fun. Flagpole is also accessible with a bit of a shore swim but is Fantastic! The tank fills were fast and convenient. Sat nights in the summer they have live music and grilled food. I am listening to the music over the water from one of the waterfront glamping yurts and it couldn’t be more pleasant. We will certainly be back.
