Lazy Bear Retreat - Peaceful & Relaxing - Reconnect with the Beauty of Nature

Enjoy the breathtaking water views of cargo ships sailing by on the Juan de Fuca Strait between the U.S. & Canada from our large windows in the living & entertainment rooms, then, simply turn towards the dining room for majestic views of Mt. Olympus & the Olympic mountain range. Almost 2,000 sq. ft. updated custom built home with big bedrooms & an open floor plan, in a quiet, peaceful area is the perfect setting for memorable year round vacations with your family or close-knit group of friends.

Peace and relaxation is what you will become accustomed to once here. We currently have 4 large bedrooms, one being an entertainment room with a Smart TV (and our Netflix Account Access), games & books and 2 bathrooms that can accommodate 8 guests in two Kings (one can become two twins upon request) and two Queens. Windows in each bedroom are positioned perfectly so you can enjoy the beautiful views when waking up and during those cozy evening!

Once there, you’ll walk up our beautiful deck on the back entrance of our home. Come on in, the bold colors and contemporary design have meshed elegantly, creating a warmth and charm that you will never forget and look forward to returning to in the future.

Each room has plenty of natural light and each bedroom is fitted with individual baseboard heaters so you can keep it perfectly climate controlled to your satisfaction. We have everything you will need including a washing machine/dryer and a kitchen with all the necessary appliances & accessories so you can prepare a delightful home-cooked meal.

There is much to explore in our surrounding area. The narrow, antiquated roads are compacted gravel, easy to walk along and free of traffic. Walk the private roads, take a stroll to the seaside cliffs, ride a bike around. Our neighborhood is absolutely void of sound pollution. It is a prefect escape to get in touch with the sounds of nature.

After a fun day of outdoor activities, you can settle in for an evening with a delightfully home cooked meal, family board games, a movie on the flat screen TV or some music for light-hearted entertainment.

One of the best features of our home is its location for nearby activities. It is a short drive to the Dungeness Preserve & Trail head to the world famous Dungeness Spit & Lighthouse. It is also a couple miles from the Cline Spit & Olympic Games Farm.

If you're feeling adventurous there are a couple great opportunities for day trips. Approximately 15 miles west, venture to the road up to Hurricane Ridge, from Port Angeles. This is in the heart of the Olympic National Park and you will undoubtedly experience some of the most beautiful views the world has to offer and beautiful hiking trails in all of the world. Hurricane Ridge is also a wonderful location for winter activities as well...Skiing, Sledding & most importantly - SNOW BALL FIGHTS!

About an hour or so from Hurricane Ridge is Lake Cresent (Glacier Blue Waters) & another easy hike to Marymere Falls. Close to here is also Sol Duc Falls and the Hot Springs...all of it a must see and do.

A drive to Cape Flattery, the north western most region of the US, and a short, easy hike will take you to amazing view on the cliffs and of the Pacific Ocean crashing into the sea caves!

Sequim is also home to many nationally acclaimed Lavender Farms as well as U-Pick farms and if you come in the spring and early summer, you will see that our Lavender fields are on par with the fields in the South of France…all this, right here in our section of the US.

Escape to the Olympic Peninsula, take full advantage of everything the Pacific Northwest has to offer!

David B., Highlands Ranch

Liked: Cleanliness
Large clean home with four large bedrooms and several very comfortable places to hang out. The home is a bit vintage in spots, but there are also a few upgrades. The kitchen had a large assortment of pots, tools and implements for cooking.Internet access is spotty on the peninsula in general, and this was no exception. We had to fall back to cellular hotspots for multiple kids doing homework and college applications at the same time. The hot water heater was perhaps a tad undersized as we ran out of hot water frequently. But manage these two minor things and you're set with a solid, comfortable home base for exploring the area.About 10 minutes from Sequim proper and about 7 minutes from US101, you're close enough to get where you need to go but far enough away to enjoy the quiet and solitude. Tip: Check out the stars on a clear night, away from the light pollution of Sequim.Summary: Would definitely stay here again. Very comfortable, clean home, good communication with owner.

House is nicely laid out. A note by kitchen faucet about water being sort of brown when you first turn on would have been nice. If cleaners would have checked breadboards for cleaning. Also instructions for running heater heads and check tv remote if it works and replaced batteries, we lucky had some with us. Deer’s morning and evening were a nice bonus.

Nice house with multiple bedrooms to choose from and a quiet area. We enjoyed the large kitchen and living room area. Host was very responsive when we needed a new propane tank for the grill.We also enjoyed doing the jigsaw puzzles at night after our days in Olympic NP. Internet service was very spotty and I couldn't do work one night. Luckily I managed to get it done the next day, probably because other people in our group stopped using WiFi and used cell data.Other than that it was a good stay. One more bathroom would be great for a large group.

The beds were comfortable. The whole house was homey. The front yard needs mowing. The firt impression when we arrived, we thought we had the wrong house cause the front lawn was so overgrown. Overall we all enjoyed our stay.

Spacious, comfy home!

We had a great stay! It was incredibly spacious and fit our group of eight (seven adults and one teen) comfortably. The house was very clean and well-stocked with everything we needed for cooking, which made meals easy and enjoyable. We spent most of our time in the kitchen and dining room, perfect spots to relax and watch deer wander by in the evenings.Each bedroom having its own baseboard heater was a huge plus, especially since I tend to run cold and could warm up my space while others kept theirs cooler. The beds varied a bit in comfort, but nothing major. Communication with the hosts was excellent, from helping us plan out parts of our trip to checking in after we accidentally set off a fire alarm (oops!). We also noticed that some areas of the home have been updated beyond what the listing photos show, which was a nice surprise!Overall, it was a really pleasant stay, and we'd absolutely come back. The house worked well for everything from quiet mornings to busy days out, and it felt like a home away from home.

5 day stay near Port Angeles

We spent 5 nights at this property and had plenty of room to hang out together after spending our days exploring the area. The kitchen was well equipped and we prepared dinner most evenings.Highlights for us were exploring and hiking in Olympic National Park, spending a day in Victoria, BC (ferry), as well as a relaxing afternoon at nearby Olympic Cellars winery. We hope to be back!

Great place to stay on the Olympic Peninsula

We really enjoyed the house and the quiet setting. It was the perfect location for us to visit family in Sequim over the holidays and easily able to visit Olympic National Park. The four bedrooms were all good size and more than we needed. Also, the large yard is great. We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent Accommodations

We stayed 1 week in Sequim at this property. They had everything we needed as a family of 4. Each of us could've had our own bedroom if we wanted. The kitchen was perfect for us to cook meals in, breakfast and supper. The entire property was clean and organized. Even the exterior was in great condition. Would reccomend to anyone looking for a short weekend or extended stay.

What a great stay! Seeing deer and mountains in the morning while drinking coffee and planning our day was wonderful. The location is great for visiting the Dungeness Spit, the Olympic National Park and the Hoh Rain Forest to name just a few places we enjoyed. It was hard to leave, and if we are ever lucky enough to come back to visit we will definitely stay here again.
