Shacking up at the crab shack
My girlfriend and I stayed here for the week and couldn’t have asked for a better stay. We explored Olympic National park and this location was perfect. Just far enough away from the buzz to where you could have peace and quite of the awesome property, but close enough to Port Angeles and the trail heads of the park. Biggest perk of staying here was that when we ever thought we needed something, the crab shack had it (coolers, collapsible lawn chairs, laundry detergent, the list goes on and on). Would highly recommend this listing for anyone looking for a place to stay in the Olympic National Park area!

Cute, cozy home with a beautiful view!
We loved our stay at the Crab Shack! The house is small but cozy with all the amenities you need. The view all around the house is breathtaking!!! We loved walking down to the beach in the morning to watch the sunrise over the mountains. And exploring the surrounding area during the day.

Cozy and cute 🏠
Very cute little place near to the water, cute and clean interior. The amenities are nice with a fully functional small kitchen and washer/dryer. The bed could be improved but it’s not bad and make sure not to leave anything out on the counter as there are sugar ants at this property. The only real complaint was the gap next to the sink that absolutely should not be there where my electric toothbrush fell and could not be retrieved otherwise I was very happy with my stay and the property, I felt at home.

Loved this cottage, it was the perfect size for my husband and I set on a beautiful property. Views of the mountains and bay. The beach was perfect for tanning and reading a book. Enjoyed some local wine and cheese on the front patio while watching for whales and eagles. I loved this place and would definitely stay there again! Thank you for accommodating us with another night as well!
