The Happy Eagle is located on a quiet stretch of coastline where the Sekiu River meets the Strait of Juan de Fuca, between the fishing towns of Sekiu and Neah Bay. This is one of the most scenic and unspoiled areas of the Olympic Peninsula, known for its natural beauty, abundant wildlife, and outdoor adventure.
Guests love the peaceful setting with easy access to beaches, hiking trails, and world-class fishing.

Keep an eye out for bald eagles, seals, and even whales during migration season.
This area is ideal for guests looking to unplug, explore, and experience the raw beauty of Washington’s coast.

Great place for a homebase or to chill
Secret treasure nestled way out on the peninsula. You can visit historic sites, have room for miles, and the best views on the planet. We fished and enjoyed sightseeing for several days. You are RIGHT ON THE BEACH! You won't regret giving this place a visit.

Just steps from the beach.
We had a very nice time. We’ll stocked kitchen. The bed was really comfy. It was so nice and quiet. The beach was great.
Only downfall was Superhog. Took forever. Had to redo all the forms at least 20 times before they got it straightened out. Almost gave up. Loose Superhog and it would be perfect.
