Hood Canal Grand Cottage

We recently stayed at the Hood Canal Grand Cottage for a girls weekend. We went over for the Poulsbo Half Marathon, 16 of us ladies. The owner of the house was wonderful and helped us in any way he could. The house was beautiful and spacious, with a gorgeous view and beautiful lawn. We rented both the house and the carriage house and had plenty of room for all 16 of us. No problems with the deposit and no additional excessive cleaning fees as someone else stated in their review. We had a wonderful time and would go back given the chance. Thanks Ernie!

Stayed here mid August 2014:
if you want to over pay for a mediocre stay, clean for hours, be watched relentlessly by the owners (who live next door), be charged additional fees for nonsense reasons and never get your full deposit back (even though you sweep, load the towels in the washer, vacuum and do the dishes), then yes, stay here. what a pos ripoff.
we stayed here for 2 days to prep for my wedding and the owner right from the start was so bad. i came here with my family and us being asian have to have tidiness at all times and they still managed to have the nerve to say we didnt clean?! i watched my mom, aunt and mother in law clean that place until it looked exaclty like how it did when we arrived. and yet my deposit is nowhere to be found. they «graciously» only charged us for the 3 toddlers that we had with us even though the owner told me that kids were «fine». what a freaking nightmare.

Horrible horrible experience. Charged $ 200 for «excessive cleaning» (on top of the $ 200+ fee we had already paid) which involved things like them having to sweep and wipe down the counters. Have used VRBO several times and never met such uptight owners before. The house was littered with obnoxious signs everywhere you turned shouting instructions at you. Overall the house itself was fine but experience was totally ruined by the owners.

We recently spent a week staying @ the Hood Canal Grand Cottage! OUTSTANDING! This was thee perfect place for our family. Sleeps 16 including the detached carriage house. Perfectly appointed, wonderful! Owners live next door and they could not have been nicer. Location: Poulsbo, Puget Sound, Washington State, USA (60 Minutes from Seattle. 75 Minutes to Sea-​Tac Airport.) When you have in your family a new baby & the parents are paranoid about waking everyone in the house… this is the answer — they were 20′ away in the carriage house so they could join in all the activities and yet not worry about mid-​night feedings! I just can’t say enough wonderful things about this incredibly large home with a fantastic view of everything including the Hood Canal Bridge!
