Country at It’s Best
Growing up on a farm there was always animals to watch plus peace and quiet. Mix that with caring and friendly people and that is exactly what you have here. Loved waking up with the wild animals, hearing the chickens , tree limbs moving in the wind, so peaceful! Jesse was great, very friendly and wanting to make sure we were happy with the rental. Staying at many VRBO’s this was the cleanest yet, kitchen was set up nicely. Is on our list of “will return”. We didn’t get to meet Susan, but hopefully during a future stay we will. Thank you for sharing your property Jesse!

Clean, spacious and convenient!
On a road trip to explore WA's National Parks, this property served as home base for our Olympic NP adventures. It was very clean and the bedrooms were spacious. Supplies were well stocked and the kitchen had everything we needed. (Everything was also labeled which made my label-maker heart happy!) We looked forward to our nightly visits from a family of deer and the hosts also let us hang out with their chickens! Overall, wonderful stay. And Olympic National Park wasn't too shabby, either!

Listing is misleading
The words spacious are thrown around multiple times and that's an outrite lie. For example you can't have people sitting at the dininroom table abs then also try to open the fridge there's not enough room. Also it's not clear from the listing that there are people that live in the house above. Its also listed as 17 acres but most of that is on an inaccessible ravine that's full of thick unsuable trees.

Secluded spot close to the action
Spacious, cozy, organized and very well equipped space to enjoy a family vacation. Secluded spot but still close to shops and olympic national park. Also had a high chair and pack n play which came in handy for our toddler.

Wonderful Stay at Deer Park
We enjoyed our stay at Deer Park. The lower level of the house was where our rooms were. We had a great view out the sliding glass door and the huge windows in the master bathroom. The rooms were large and spacious. The carpets were very soft, my daughter loved them. We saw several deer in the yard and it was a nice distance from the town of Port Angelese. We arrived a little late the first night and got a little confused about where to park since it was dark, but we quickly found the spot we were supposed to park. Too much sightseeing in one day. There were nice fluffy towels for the shower. A nice washer and dryer. A Keurig coffee pot with pods and creamer packs. A full sized fridge. It was a very nice property. I also noticed there were several baby items in the storage room which I would have appreciated if my kids were younger. We spent one day at Sol Duc hot springs and waterfall. The next we checked out we spent time in downtown Port Angelese. Feiro Marine Life Center was a great stop with kids. They had little touch pools and great staff. We also stopped at Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge which is only a few minutes away. Go at low tide.
