Hotels near Shine Tidelands State Park

"I didn’t have breakfast so can’t rate. Had the happy hour prixe fixe deal which was reasonably price but frankly not that fantastic but they were short staffed due to a very bad traffic accident on the Hood Canal and the pizza I had tasted like one of the frozen types wi5 way too much sauce and gobs of cheese. The soup - tomato - was fine. And the dessert a chocolate fudge type cake was fine. The price was ok. BUT I loved my room. I wouldn’t come here for the food but the room was divine. King bed, huge room, soaker tub with a view of the harbour and a gas fireplace. MY MAJOR complaint was that the signage to the hotel was almost non existent coming from Port Townsend. There is a crucial junction of 101 South just as you head away from the turnoff to P Townsend and I got totally confused and continued south on 101. I saw the very obvious signs for the routes east, the direction I KNEW I should be heading but THOSE signs mentioned Kingston and FERRIES to Seattle amd Bremerton. But because P Ludlow is a tiny place no mention of it. SO TAKE that exit for ferries you drive through clearcuts for what seems like MILES with nothing but constant traffic and when I almost gave up I saw a tiny sign saying Port Ludlow (but before that the only other sign I saw was for Port Gamble which threw me off). Which was good but I was travelling alone and so locating tiny signs on a road with fast traffic is very hard at my age- 74! Next thing I know I am roaring across the Hood Canal!"

"This property was amazing! Great views, plenty of room for all of our group to eat or play games together. There were also many quiet nooks with comfortable chairs. Some had gas fire pits. We were all sad to leave!"

"Very private and quiet retreat that offered stunning views. Although it was a weekend away as a couples retreat, this home has a lot to offer families. The basement is designed with entertainment in mind (simulator golf, pool table, theater room). The hot tub temperature was perfect and the landscape provided a sanctuary for bird watching. If you are considering this home some things to consider is that it is a multilevel home with many stairs (may be hard to navigate with toddlers). Also, be sure to bring ground coffee (not provided) as there is a coffee pot and not a single serve pod machine i.e. Keurig. This is a large home and it may be silly to rent for just two, however we wanted a private and relaxing place to stay without sharing our time with others. (Those who have teenagers and or aging parents living with you will get this). Overall, we had a fantastic time and will definitely consider this place again in the future. "
