About this property

The Indianola Boathouse

Convenient access to Kingston, Bainbridge and Poulsbo. A beautifully equipped studio apartment over a detached garage provides safety, privacy, and serenity in a quiet neighborhood on the water.

Located in Indianola on the Kitsap Peninsula, this property is just ten minutes from the Kingston Ferry. Take a walk on the beach, soak in the sun and enjoy the view of Mount Rainier! Five minutes away, hike the Heritage Trail. Explore nearby local towns with antiques, art, and boutique shops. Other outdoor adventures, wineries, breweries, and fine dining are also close by. Ask for my personal Kitsap and Olympic guide via email before you arrive!

The Boathouse is superbly appointed with luxurious materials including stone countertops and hardwood flooring. It is decorated with a leather recliner, home office, large dining/game table, smart TV, and a kitchenette. Get creative cooking with an induction burner, electric skillet, toaster oven, crock pot, microwave, coffee maker, undercounter refrigerator and an outdoor gas grill. An additional refrigerator and freezer space in the garage with ice and plenty of room for groceries is also available upon request. The Boathouse is ideal for two adults but will sleep up to 4. A queen bed and two twin captain beds plus a portable crib.

Relax and reboot your spirits in this charming oasis featuring fresh air and filtered water (PH 9.0 - 9.5). The unit has a 3-stage air purifier HEPA filter and a ductless heating and air conditioning unit for your safety and comfort.

By car, Indianola is fifteen minutes to Poulsbo, twenty minutes to Bainbridge Island or ten minutes to Kingston. Silverdale and the Bangor Keyport Naval base are twenty-five minutes away. A Kitsap Transit Bus line is located just outside the neighborhood entrance. The Kitsap Fast Ferry to Seattle is out of the Kingston Ferry terminal. The Fast Ferry has limited sailing runs from Kingston to Seattle, a forty-minute boat trip. The Bainbridge, Kingston, and Bremerton ferries connect you to Edmonds and Seattle with regular sailings throughout the day 4:45 am - 1:30 am.

Just a few hours away, the Olympic Peninsula is a world class destination. Be sure to visit the Olympic National Park, which is comprised of Lake Crescent, Sol Duc Hot Springs, the Hoh Rain Forest and the Pacific Ocean. “With its incredible range of precipitation and elevation, diversity is the hallmark of Olympic National Park. Encompassing nearly a million acres, the park protects a vast wilderness, thousands of years of human history, and several distinctly different ecosystems, including glacier-capped mountains, old-growth temperate rain forests, and over 70 miles of wild coastline. Come explore!"

Spend another day strolling the streets of Port Townsend, a Victorian seaport where you can take a whale watch tour to Friday Harbor. “This quaint and picturesque seaside burg is surrounded by water on three sides (Discovery Bay, Strait of Juan de Fuca, Admiralty Inlet), and enjoys stunning views of both the Cascade and Olympic mountain ranges.”

Exceptional studio beach stay
We loved Susan’s place. Perched above her garage, beautifully decorated in nautical theme, she’s thought of every convenience a guest could need, neatly described, easy to find. Super thoughtful!! A 1 minute walk to the spit beach, located in a very scenic, bucolic, quiet neighborhood, this is a lovely space to take in the Kitsap Penisula. Highly recommend.

Great Stay
Not only was the location cozy and clean, but the host was also very quick to reply when I did feel the need to reach out. The living and sleeping area was spacious enough for two adults and the kitchenette was stocked as we had expected (with basic utensils and cooking capabilities). The neighborhood is quiet and secluded which was nice to return to after the day's adventures. Checking in and out was seamless too, and there were clear instructions included as well. I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet getaway!

Lovely Studio Apartment (Water Adjacent)
The studio apartment was clean and provided ample room for my spouse and two young children. The host provided plenty of amenities (coffee, fruit, towels, water, shampoo/conditioner, etc) and all instructions were clear and easy to understand. We had a lovely, comfortable stay! The weather was cold to us Californians but the heater worked great, there were plenty of blankets and no issues with the hot water. Loved having access to the beach (a sandy one too!) and the beautiful neighborhood is an easy walk. We look forward to visiting again!

Beautiful getaway
My wife and I took a working vacation here in spring 2023. This is a well-maintained home away from home with everything you need for a long weekend or an even longer stay. Quiet neighborhood close to many different sites in Western Washington. Host was very flexible when our arrival flight was very delayed, helping us to find the best ferry options remaining that night. Would definitely return!

Amazing Place
I took a 3 day trip to recover from burnout. I was wiped and I just needed to be alone in a beautiful place and this was perfect. I stayed in the bed with a perfect view and listened to the waves and after 3 days I was back to feeling like myself. The place is really clean (there's even an air purifier), well stocked, quiet and beautiful (lots of windows and even skylights). You also get access to a beautiful private beach. Looking forward to my next trip.

Quiet, peaceful escape
Susan’s beach house was the perfect place for my husband & I to escape to a little piece of paradise. The beach house is beautifully decorated & a great place to stay from the busyness of life & the tourist sites. Yet it is close enough to these places that you can still enjoy. Seattle is only a ferry ride away & so highly recommend whale watching. I really enjoyed the sunrises on the beach. I would love to enjoy that view everyday. Thank you Susan!!
