Oak Bay Getaway Executive Waterfront retreat in Port Townsend

The Oak Bay Getaway is located on Oak Bay on the eastern shore of
the fabulous Olympic Peninsula in Port Hadlock, Washington between
Port Ludlow and Port Townsend. It has three bedrooms to accommodate
six people comfortably, two with king size beds and one with a
queen. The loft master bedroom has its own private bath and walk-in
closet.
This family vacation home was built in 1996. In December 2000, we
decided to share it with people looking for solitude, yet located
near multiple recreational and tourist activities. It sits on an
acre of beach front property. The property and surrounding area have
been in the family's possession for over a hundred years.
From the great room, the master bedroom, or the front deck, you can
watch the herons feed at low tide, or a pair of local eagles soar
overhead. Ships pass through Puget Sound between the sea and
Seattle a mile off shore. Relax, watch and enjoy yourself away from
the bustle of the city.
If you like crab, try your luck at low tide off the beach.

The home is equipped with all of the modern conveniences; phone,
cable TV, gas heating, free standing fireplace stove, microwave
oven, dish washer, clothes washer and dryer, linens, towels, dishes
and flatware,a full wraparound deck with BBQ grill.

The Olympic Peninsula is just bounding with places to see.
Historical Port Townsend is 10 minutes drive and Port Angeles is a
45 minute drive from your vacation home. From Port Angles,
drive up to Hurricane Ridge high in the Olympic mountains looking
north across the Strait of Juan de Fuca at Vancouver Island, Canada
and Canadian city of Victory. Take the ferry from Port Angeles
across the Strait of Juan de Fuca to Victoria, BC. In the spring,
summer and fall, visit the famous Buchart Gardens in Victoria B.C.
or have high tea at the Empress Hotel. If you want to make a several
day trip, continue on to Vancouver via Canadian ferry system, then
drive south back to the United States and south on Whidby Island and
return on the ferry to Port Townsend.
The unique Hoh Rain Forest which experiences the greatest rainfall
in the United States is located on the western shore of the Olympic
peninsula. Don't worry, that's on the other side of the mountains,
yet only two and a half hours away. The Getaway is located on the
drier side of the mountains.
Or if your fancy suits you, take a boat trip from Port Townsend,
Victoria BC/to see the Orca whales as they migrate to the Islands during the summer.
If golf is your thing, there are several courses to choose, anywhere from Port Ludlow to Port Townsend to Squiem Washington.

Rates vary depending on season and length of stay.  Please contact the owner David Afflerbach for details.
