Epic Views! Waterfront near Alderbrook. Union City Beach House at Hood Canal

If you are seeking a memorable Pacific Northwest getaway, you are invited to fabulous Union City Beach House at Hood Canal. This clean, comfortable and private beachfront vacation rental awaits! You will be amazed by the one of a kind, jaw dropping views, the wildlife, the tidal changes at your back door and the lovely sunsets.

👍Located on the coveted South Shore, guests are greeted with SPECTACULAR, UNOBSTRUCTED 180 DEGREE VIEWS of the Olympic Mountains and the picturesque "Great Bend" that are sensational from the large deck and nearly every room in the home. This beautiful and peaceful location is the ideal setting for a romantic retreat or just to rest, relax and rejuvenate!

This immaculate waterfront home is 1100 square feet, has a renovated kitchen, two queen bedrooms, and an updated bathroom. Suitable for a small family or group, the home accommodates a maximum of 4 guests (5 with owner approval only). This is a great location to stay for a bride and groom, family or members of the wedding party leading up to the big day! To keep you connected, the home has high speed wireless internet and a 51" flat screen smart HDTV.

Just 1.5 hours from Seattle and 2.5 hours from Portland, the beach cabin is at water's edge and has just the right touches to make guests feel comfortable and at home. A large, 700 square foot private deck overlooks stunning views of the Olympic Mountains, water and wildlife. Guests can easily access the beach and water using the heavy duty, aluminum, marine grade step stairs. In the summer, guests are provided a WEBER propane grill (not available Nov - March) and plenty of seating for outdoor dining, basking and relaxing.

Resting on the shores of Hood Canal and surrounded by the snow covered Olympic Mountains, the home is at a CONVENIENT CENTRAL LOCATION. Here in the town of Union, you are just 2 miles from Alderbrook Resort and Spa (Guests have access to resort amenities; bar, live music, dining, hiking trails, lawn games, spa, golf, kayak, SUP rentals). The Union City Beach House is just a 4 minute walk away from groceries, treats and specialty gifts at The Union City Market (located within the Hood Canal Marina), which hosts cookouts and is popular as a local gathering space. Also nearby is the 2 Margaritas Family Mexican Restaurant and the Union Country Store.

The tidelands and beach are fun for the kids to explore and for adults, sweet and succulent Pacific Oysters and delectable Manila Clams are easy to collect and do not get any fresher and tastier than this!

The water is warm and great for kayaking, boating and numerous other water activities. The scenery is awe-inspiring and ever changing. Our guests delight in nature as seals, bald eagles, great blue heron, belted kingfisher and many other migratory birds and ducks abound. The abundant wildlife and phenomenal sunsets provide ample opportunity for captivating photography.

Besides the numerous water related activities, there are many things to do at Hood Canal, especially for the adventurous! Head to the Olympics and hike Mount Ellinor, Staircase or other more or less challenging trails nearby. Several highly ranked golf courses are close by including, Alderbrook, Salish Cliffs at Little Creek, Gold Mountain and others. Nearby casinos include Little Creek and the Lucky Dog. Gourmet dining is available nearby at The Alderbrook Resort and Spa and the Union City Maeket offers authentic Pacific Northwestern culinary fare.

Great spot on the canal
Just a pleasant getaway. The property is better than described - really nice and good place. Arriving was very welcoming with the heat on and the place warm. The views are fantastic, with the seals, herons, and eagles keeping me entertained. A wonderful escape from the city.

Trip to Hood Canal Waterfront Home
We had the pleasure of staying at this waterfront home along Hood Canal. The property provided a unique experience as the water lapped on the seawall underneath during high tide and offered breathtaking views of the Olympic Mountains. The accommodation comfortably housed our group of four and offered an unparalleled level of privacy along this stretch of Hood Canal. Situated near Alderbrook Resort/Spa and Golf Club, the location was convenient with nearby restaurants. The well-stocked kitchen had everything needed to prepare a delicious meal. The overall comfort of the home, combined with its scenic surroundings, made our stay truly enjoyable. I highly recommend this property for anyone seeking a peaceful and picturesque getaway along Hood Canal.

This home has a lot going for it! Location of course, but also layout, amenities and comfortable beds. Easy walking distance to a couple restaurants, as well as to Union Market and Marina. The views are of course fabulous! Saw harbor seals, birds of various types too. Steps down to the beach from the back deck to put in my SUP board? Added bonus.
