The Space:
Important note before you book: Guests are required to complete the Check-In Form provided by Brigadoon Vacation Rentals as a mandatory step to finalize their reservation. To ensure a smooth check-in process, a valid government-issued photo ID must be attached to the form.

Get your sea air fix at the Crab Shack, overlooking the Strait of Juan de Fuca! This cottage has been newly updated with wood-like vinyl floors, new kitchen, fresh paint in anticipation of converting it to a vacation rental. There is a patio out back with a re-finished picnic bench.

Just a short drive from the heart of Sequim, this rustic and charming cottage is a great place to relax or use as a base to explore the Olympic peninsula. Owned by the same family for generations.

Inside you’ll find one bedroom with a queen bed, a comfortable living room and a kitchen with all you need to make a scrumptious meal. The vinyl-wood floors add that cabin feel to the cottage.  Smart TV & Free wi-fi included.

In the main bedroom, there is a queen size bed. For more than 2 guests, you can use the comfortable pull-out full-size couch / bed in the living room. The kitchen has a full size washer and dryer for your laundry needs. For even more guests, check out "Waters Edge" which is right across the street.

Outside you can sit on the patio to shoot the breeze. There is a huge yard for the kids to play in. Walk straight to the private beach. Beaches in Washington are privately owned. 

Fragrance Free Home: we have supplied the home with unscented products (paper products, dish soap & detergent, clothes detergent, pump soap). Exceptions - shampoo and conditioner and wrapped tiny bar soaps. Our cleaners use fragrance free products.

NO Pets, Smoking or Fireworks

Not far from the cottage you can visit the National Wildlife Refuge and Dungeness Spit. Take a bracing 5.5 mile walk out to the New Dungeness Lighthouse, the longest natural sand spit in the nation.

Only a short drive out to Port Angeles, head to Hurricane Ridge and Hurricane Ridge Visitor Center for beautiful hiking trails and amazing views. Head farther west to Lake Crescent for waterfall trails and a gorgeous teal deep water lake. Venture even further and the Hoh Rain Forest may tempt you for a real adventure.

There are many other local popular destinations such as Olympic Game Farm, Salt Creek Recreational Area/Crescent Beach, Seven Cedars Casino, Port Williams, the John Wayne Marina and even more scenic destinations a short drive away!

Only 55 minutes from Olympic National Park, where you can drive up to Hurricane Ridge for spectacular views and an easy hike at the top.

We loved the quiet waterfront location, the eagles that were called by a neighbor in the morning, and the well-appointed, roomy home. It was a beautiful location, with endless explorations possible nearby.

The Crab Shack was an excellent property for our needs. My husband and I wanted a cozy hub to explore the PNW from, and this cabin suited us perfectly. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cookware. The view over the water was beautiful and a perfect way to begin and end our days of exploration.

The Crab Shack is as accurately described. Except it failed to say how quiet it was and how relaxing. We couldn’t have asked for a nicer arrangement.

Lovely cozy little cabin. It was very windy the days I was there and a bit cold inside as a result.

My girlfriend and I stayed here for the week and couldn’t have asked for a better stay. We explored Olympic National park and this location was perfect. Just far enough away from the buzz to where you could have peace and quite of the awesome property, but close enough to Port Angeles and the trail heads of the park. Biggest perk of staying here was that when we ever thought we needed something, the crab shack had it (coolers, collapsible lawn chairs, laundry detergent, the list goes on and on). Would highly recommend this listing for anyone looking for a place to stay in the Olympic National Park area!

What a great place! A gorgeous setting right across the road from the Strait of Juan de Fuca. This house was perfect for our quick birthday getaway. Super clean and well stocked with most everything you could need. Only a short 5-minute drive to downtown Sequim. Great communication with the property manager. The upgrades were nicely done! We’ve already recommended this place to several friends.

Loved this cottage, it was the perfect size for my husband and I set on a beautiful property. Views of the mountains and bay. The beach was perfect for tanning and reading a book. Enjoyed some local wine and cheese on the front patio while watching for whales and eagles. I loved this place and would definitely stay there again! Thank you for accommodating us with another night as well!
