About this property

Private,Quiet,cabin,on 27 acres,w/ trails. near the Hoh Rain Forest Nat' l Park.

Hello.At this time of the corona virus outbreak. Here are some reassurances about my place.I am on the West end of Jefferson County. 65 miles from Port Angeles and 110 miles from Aberdeen. The closest town is Forks and that is 15 miles away. There is a large grocery store. I am isolated, with no super close neighbours and in the middle of 27 acres of pristine forest land. I have my own well and I have it tested every year. My crew of helpers are doing a great job of keeping the property clean and comfortable. We get lots of great comments about this.Our favorite comment..."We can't wait to come back". The decks,gazebo, huge yard ,and the wonderful trails are really fun to relax around. And so quiet too.

Magical Home Away from Home
This was a wonderful place to stay. When we drove up, my daughter said that it looked like a real life Ghibli film; she wasn’t wrong. It was cozy, quiet, and had everything we needed. Kamala was an excellent host and quick to respond to any questions. Thank you!

A special kind of quiet
If you don't mind a small cabin with giant surroundings then the Hideaway will please you. This was our family's third time renting. I am always grateful that the forest and its creatures are still thriving when we come back. Kamala knows this is a special place. And, bless her for sharing it with others. If you are in love with the rainforest, then you will be at home here.

Serenity
Fantastic get away. Kamala is a caretaker of this unique, serene, and grounding part of the rain forest. You'll feel taken care of with all her attention to detail and hospitality. Close to the heart of the rain forest and where the river meets the ocean. The hiking trails on the property are a wonderful introduction to the rain forest as well. Am grateful I landed at this spot for a few days.

Clean and quiet escape in the rain forest
We enjoyed great communication with our host prior to our visit, and then while there, we were amazed at the quiet. I think we heard a car some distance away, but only once. Comfortable bed, too. The on-site trails provided a wonderful escape into a growing forest that shows the species diversity to be found in the rain forest.

great spot to explore Olympic National Park
Great property, perfect setting, very friendly owner. Kamala loves this area and is excited to share that love with her guests. We were well situated for several days of exploring, and the cabin and gazebo were the perfect spot to relax afterwards. I look forward to returning here in the future!

Magical Forest Getaway
This was my second time staying at The Hoh Hideaway and it was as magical as the last. If you hike the Hoh River Mouth/ Oil City trail be sure to look for the whale skeleton. To your right as you approach the ocean-- a large branch is poking out almost to the sky -- look below and it is an amazing sight. Check tide tables before you go - you'll want to leave an hour before low tide. Also - so many beautiful fungi specimens on Kamala's property-- do not touch just enjoy (o: And of course don't forget that amazing out door shower. What a dream. Thanks again Kamala for a lovely visit!! Next time we'll stay longer (o:

Peaceful cottage
Spent 4 days in this lovely, cozy cottage near the Hoh National Park. Kamala was the perfect host, meeting us at the gate and sharing her thoughts about the area. The 1930 house brought back memories of a quieter, more peaceful time. The grounds were well maintained and perfect for a family setting, esp. with children. Enjoyed our experience.

Paradise in Hoh Rainforest!
We absolutely loved our time at Kamala’s home. It’s conveniently located to the western side of Olympic, including the Hoh Rainforest, Ruby Beach, Forks, and more. The home is small, but clean and well equipped. Our family of 6 had enough room to stay and play. Because the home has a shallow well, during the summer Kamala asks guests to use the outdoor shower when possible. The outdoor shower is private, has hot water, and our kids especially loved it. A great basecamp to see all that western Olympic NP has to offer.

Beautiful escape
The property was as described and even more peaceful. It's very accessible to attractions in the Olympic Peninsula. My dog loved the trails in the property, which he wouldn't have otherwise in the the national park since he isn't allowed to. My toddler had a lot of fun with the toys inside the home, and it the yard. My wife and I completely enjoyed the break. We'd love to be back sometime.

Our Favorite
We felt incredibly welcome and cared for even before our stay actually began thanks to the excellent communication. The house and property are overflowing with thoughtful details, from the cozy fire pit area to the boot dryers, which were a godsend after one particular beach hike. The trails were magical and made us feel like we were in the park, and our teenagers loved the big swing. The location was great as well and made it easy for us to visit both the Hoh and Quinault rainforests, several beaches, and Forks (where we loved Forks Outfitters). We loved every second and were all sad to move on to our next destination.

This home is exactly as described and was perfect for our family. Kamala was a thoughtful host. Everything we needed was there, and when we wanted to visit the beaches or other NPS sites they were a short drive away. This place is an absolute treasure!

Idyllic Setting
We LOVED this place. There are beautiful rainforest trails right behind the house and it's so peaceful. Host was wonderful and gave us a tip about an amazing hiking trail at the end of the road that we would have otherwise never known about. I enjoyed this place so much and am already planning my next visit!

Good for the soul!
My husband and I had such a wonderful time at Kamala's cabin! It was a perfect way to relax, unwind, and explore Olympic National Park. We were able to see a lot of the spots we wanted to visit because of its location. Very much appreciated Kamala's tips! She is a great host and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. The cabin is adorable and super cozy! We especially loved the private trails! Hardly ever do you get the chance to stop and listen to the sounds of the forest. The quietness of the property is truly a gem in and of itself. Can't wait to come back!

Magical
The location is perfectly situated 20 minutes from beaches, in one direction, the town of Forks in the other. The Hoh Rainforest is breathtakingly beautiful and the trails on the property are stunning. The love and care put into the property is evident. Taking an outdoor shower with rainforest views, while it is raining, and hummingbirds are flying by was a memorable sensory experience. We appreciated the well stocked books, game and movie cupboard for when we were not outside exploring. There are rain ponchos and rain boots an available to borrow and It is a small but cozy cabin that fit our family of five (3 teenagers) just right.

About the host

Hosted by Kamala Heath

Host profile image
We are English transplants who have fallen in love with the Pacific Northwest. The grandchildren love to come and spend time here.We love sharing the cabin with people who really appreciate the beautiful setting.We have spent years upgrading the property.Not easy with over 110 inches of rain a year! We are thrilled that our guests are returning and recommending this older cabin to their friends. I have guests who have returned every year {14} for a week every August ..They always look to see what changes were made to the property in the last year.

Why they chose this property

We come here to rest and rejuvenate and leave the city behind.Our family has owned and loved this property for over 40 years. Actually, the property has owned us! Especially the moles! Many of our English relatives have come to visit and are always amazed at the scenery.Last year's favourite memory was of my English buddies from high school sitting around the blazing campfire,late at night,drinks in hand, laughing until we cried. We wish to share this peaceful sanctuary with you.Make sure you take the time to walk the trails and pack a picnic for the beach.

What makes this property unique

Tranquility, relaxation, and seclusion. We have enjoyed watching the wildlife in the large yard.The trails are magical.Also the beach-combing,fishing and hunting is pretty good too!
