Shelton sits along Oakland Bay in Mason County, a small Puget Sound community with deep timber heritage. It's a quieter gateway to the Olympic Peninsula, with Hood Canal and Olympic National Forest nearby. Nurses seeking smaller-town pace with ready access to saltwater and mountain trails may find Shelton a practical fit.
