Tired of shopping on your weekend getaway? It’s time to get dirty and have some fun on the Kitsap and Olympic Peninsulas.

Sleep Well

Obviously the first thing to do is check-in to your accommodations! You’ll find plenty to choose from in Poulsbo, but to keep close to adventure, you’ll be staying at the Green Cat Guest House Bed & Breakfast, just minutes from the Hood Canal Bridge and the gateway to the Olympics Mountains.

Enjoy your night with some award winning BBQ just a couple minutes down the road at Mike’s Four Star BBQ in Port Gamble. If you get close enough to smell it, you’ll have to eat there!
