Union Info & Links
As State Route 106 follows the southernmost Great Bend "hook" of Hood Canal, it passes through the town of Union.
 Union was the site of Washington State's first arts colony, and today its arts heritage is slowly being reborn through events like the annual Annas Bay Music Festival. Unique gift shops and galleries, a deli and espresso stands, a gorgeous par-72 golf course, plus world-class restaurants and lodging facilities complement this sunny hillside and beachfront community. Hood Canal Adventures at the Union Marina offers a wide variety of boat rentals including kayaks, paddle boats, motor boats, an electric boat, and a pontoon party barge, along with a number of different recreational tours.Other services and activities include geocaching, fall mushroom walks, bicycle rentals, organized golf tournaments, historical and ecological presentations, fly fishing tours and lessons. Bring your friends and family to enjoy a catered dinner, dessert or wine and cheese tour on the electric "Hood Canal Princess" at sunset.
During summer months, Union comes alive with regulars who come to relax and enjoy some of the best scenery in the Northwest. Public boat launching and moorage is available at the Hood Canal Marina, with additional launching a few miles north at Twanoh State Park.
 The historic Dalby Waterwheel is located just south of the Union Post Office on State Route 106. The metal waterwheel once furnished the first hydro-electric power on Hood Canal. Hunter Farms, just south of Union, is another favorite stop for fresh produce and ice cream in summer, and its famous Pumpkin Patch in October.

I just walked off 18, the Olympics staring me in the face, course in great shape – can’t believe that this is open to the public. This Alderbrook Golf Course is the best kept secret around. I’ve seen my share of courses and I’ll be back. The round took me 3 1/2 hours, no waiting [...]
