Your ultimate autumn and winter hiking getaway on Hammersley Inlet awaits! 🌲❄️
Brand-new built 2025 waterfront cabin in Shelton, WA. 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom cabin. Blazing-fast 55 Mbps Wi-Fi and a dedicated workspace (desk & chair).
We want our guests to make the absolute most of their autumn and winter stay, so we’ve created a custom hiking map highlighting the best trails surrounding Shorecrest, Agate, Shelton, and the Hood Canal! When you book a peaceful autumn and winter retreat at our Scenic New Waterfront Cabin, you aren't just getting breathtaking water views from the deck—you’re getting a gateway to the best autumn and winter hiking in the Pacific Northwest.
Autumn and winter is the perfect time to stay a little longer, by the fire pit, and beat the summer crowds on the trails. Here is a sneak peek of the areas we’ve mapped out for your extended autumn and winter escape:
• Steps from the cabin: Crisp, peaceful morning walks through the quiet Shorecrest neighborhood, with easy access to Jacoby’s Shorecrest Park.
• Shelton & Agate gems: Lush, evergreen forest trails just minutes away that stay beautiful all autumn and winter long.
• Hood Canal classics: Iconic routes featuring crisp autumn and winter air, rushing waterfalls, and snow-capped views of the Olympic Mountains.
After a day of exploring, come home to thaw out by the propane fire pit on the deck, cook a warm meal in the kitchen, and watch the sunset over the inlet.
Don't rush your time in nature—book an extended winter stay and explore at your own pace! 🥾🏔️
