Greenhouse Inn by the Bay

A great spot on Dungeness Bay to explore the natural beauty of the area and the lavender fields. Craig and Michele were wonderful hosts, fun to talk to and great insight and recommendations for the area. The bald eagles were also accommodating and put on quite a show during our stay. We will definitely recommend to friends!

We had two large bedrooms at Greenhouse by the Bay, very comfortable beds, and each room had its own bathroom. The kitchen was fully adequate for the three of us, and snacks/coffee/juice were provided. Downstairs (entry level) included a laundry room and a couch with big tv. The owners were helpful and kind.

We stayed in the Seascape Room for three nights. It was not what we expected from the photos and description on the website. This room was previously a ground floor bedroom on the front of the house. It is now entered through some sliding doors off a very small deck with a ramp. The bed is in the middle of the room so that it faces the sliding door. To say you can lay in bed and see the water is the first exaggeration. The water is across a road, behind a large hedge and in a cove well below the level of the road. The only water you can possibly see is pretty far off. We could see the sails from the parasailers on the water sometimes. there is one small nightstand on the wall side of the bed. You need the space on the other side to walk behind the bed to the "kitchenette". This is the previous closet which has had the doors removed so that it contains a small refrigerator with a coffee maker on top and a microwave on a shelf over that. The is a super small sink on one end of the closet. Since no breakfast is served, there were some granola bars and yogurt furnished. The bathroom is just as pictured as long as you realize that it was taken from the "walk in closet". The closet in reality is a 3' wooden bar for hanging clothes on one end of the bathroom with a three drawer dresser against one wall. Not a closet by any means. We asked for a few more hangers and got them promptly. One plus was the comfy bed with quality linens. However, the rest of the furnishings consist of the two chairs and a very small side table between them - see photo on the inn's website with two chairs at the foot of the bed. My husband had some work to do but there was nowhere to set up his laptop and some papers. He ended up trying to balance it on the folding luggage rack. There are two deck chairs but the area is very windy and cool even in June and July so sitting outside wasn't possible. Overall, if you want to be in a quiet residential area and don't mind a 20 minute to an hour drive to get to points at Olympic National Park, this might work for you. But overall, this was not what we expected and we will have to look more closely at photos and disregard descriptions in the future.

Whether you want to unwind or have a base for exploring Olympic National Park, Greenhouse Inn by the Bay is the ideal place to stay. We stayed in The Perch, a two-story building. We each had our own bedroom and bathroom. Additionally, there was a large room where we could watch Netflix in the evening and keep a cold beer in the refrigerator. What a luxurious stay! Our hosts, Craig and Michele, were very friendly and always available to help us with any questions or provide restaurant recommendations. The surroundings were stunning, whether you're a fan of water or mountains. As we enjoyed our morning coffee on the terrace, we would see deer wandering in the backyard. We stayed here for two days and were completely rejuvenated before heading to Seattle. This accommodation comes highly recommended, and if we ever find ourselves in this region again, we would love to return without hesitation!

Great location and welcoming host Craig, who had just the right recommendations for activities and restaurants. The Greenhouse Inn is a lovely home that has been turned into an inn with views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca to the north and the Olympic Mountains to the west. Delicious wholesome breakfasts were served to start our day of discovery. The Dungeness Spit is a short drive away with several lavender farms nearby. Check out the tour at B&B Lavender Farm. A great place to stay!
