Amazing stay!!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed—especially for staying with kids. From toys and games to kid-friendly spaces, it made our trip so much easier. The hot tub was a fantastic bonus, and the garden was beautiful and peaceful. The location was great, just a short drive to the Olympic Game Farm, which was a highlight of our trip.Our host, Lisa, was wonderful—very friendly and responsive whenever we had a question. We truly felt at home and would absolutely stay here again!

Nice place to stay

The property was very nice. Great views of the mountains, and we saw several bald eagles fly right over the property. Near everything, but far enough out side of town to feel remote. Hosts were very accommodating. We will be back next time we visit the area.

Nice location, very clean, well stocked

We had a great stay at Lisa and Robert’s cottage. Very well stocked, clean and easy to communicate with them. I was very touched to receive flowers, balloons and wine as a birthday welcome! Daughter loved the upstairs hang out area, hot tub was wonderful after hikes. (The waiver that’s required to sign is 4 pages which threw us a bit.) We would stay again if in the area or recommend to others, for sure.

Great time catching up with friends

The house was very clean and stocked for myself and my friends. We really felt that the hosts cared about our stay. The kitchen had everything we needed and we enjoyed the variety of things available to us in the house - movies, games, and overall had a great time with friends that haven't gotten together in a while. The location is really convenient to anything you'd want to do in the area.

The Hiking Five

We loved everything about this well appointed bungalow!! It was spotless, had every amenity you could think of, was decorated tastefully and contained quality furnishings! It was close to the lavender fields, the Dungeness Spit and most importantly to Hurricane Ridge! We took advantage of the hot tub and BBQ and then slept well in the comfy beds!!

Great Getaway in Sequim, WA

The unit was very large, immaculate and had everything you could possibly need in a home away from home. Great location close to downtown Sequim. We used it as a 'basecamp' for a series of day hikes in the area. Hurricane Ridge in Olympic National Park, Crescent Lake, and Dungeness Spit to name a few. We used the hot tub and gas grill in the evenings to relax after the day's hikes.

Great family getaway

Quiet and friendly location. The property had all kinds of things for use in order to entertain a family. Games, TV/movies, infant/small kids play area. What we really liked was not having to buy small items like cooking oil, salt/pepper, condiments... We really appreciated the eggs that came from the property owner upon checkin.

Great PNW Experience

The house was a great location, very close to the amazing sights of the Olympic Peninsula. The hosts were incredible communicators who helped us whenever we needed them to. Their instructions were clear and easy to understand and they had lots of brochures with information on how to spend time in the area. We had an incredible time — mainly sleeping — as we explored the Olympic Peninsula.

Cozy, Comfy, Clean, and Centrally Located!

Always clean, welcoming, and a delight to stay at, when visiting Sequim! The host is super accommodating and has intentionally thought through all the things one might need in a “home” away from home. Our grandkids love it, too! A kids room stocked with fun toys and books and there’s even a path that leads to chickens out in the garden. So fun!!!

Great Place

My friends and I were in town for a birthday shrimping weekend. The home is in a prime location - close to EVERYTHING, yet secluded from the outside noise when you get into the gates. The host was amazing with all communication!. The home was EXTREMELY WELL equipped with everything needed to cook. The host also had all the ingredients for root beer floats ready for us - even down to the mugs frozen in the freezer. Nothing to complain about here. Would definitely return.

2 nights is Sequim

My girlfriend and I were staying for a few days in the Olympic Peninsula making our way out to Forks. This property was one that matched our budget and had plenty of room even for just the two of us. Do yourselves a favor and spring a little extra for the enjoyment of the hot tub. It was perfect after a day of hiking. Also, it is to be said. I appreciate the butter already in the fridge. As someone that cooks more on long trips I enjoyed the variety of kitchen amenities. Great time staying here!

Family Beach Holiday

Our entire family (3 adults and 4 grandchildren, ages 4-12 years) had a wonderful and memorable experience staying at the Wise Old Owl bungalow during our stay in Sequim. Robert and Lisa are very caring, capable hosts who have the comfort and concerns of their guests always in the forefront of their minds. The house itself had the most well-appointed kitchen that we've ever had the pleasure of using, from great cookware and sharp knives to condiments and spices. We ate most of our breakfasts and dinners there, and it was a real pleasure to do so for someone who loves to cook! They even shared their farm-fresh eggs with us! The kids loved the toy room, the hot tub, and watching the chickens and ducks, and holding the very tame chicken with Robert. The home is in a great location for explorers of the area, with beaches or hikes readily available in every direction within 15-60 minutes. We had fabulous weather and spent every day outdoors in nature, and the kids never once asked for tablets or t.v., opting instead for the rocks, sand, waves, and beach creatures. The Texas grandkids are already asking when we may return! We would not hesitate to return to this sweet bungalow and these lovely hosts. Renee July/August, 2024

I stayed here with my teenage daughter and one of her friends. We loved making root beer floats, visiting the chickens, and the over all comfort of the house. It was a great base to explore the town, Dungeness Spit, and Hurricane Ridge.
