A lovely rainforest retreat

I was visiting Olympia to see a sick family member, and my friend and I stayed here for just a single night. The hosts were very friendly and responsive when we discovered the water hadn’t been turned on, but we were the first guests of the season, so we understood. It’s a terrific little hamlet on a lovely and clear lake. We used the two-person kayak and it was absolutely lovely. The lakeside fire pit was also very nice. We didn’t use the outdoor shower, yet did use the adorable stove and oven for tea and quiche, and it was a lovely and memorable meal. Highly recommended this little gem of a cabin. Many thanks to our wonderful hosts.

Cozy weekend getaway!

This cozy cabin was an ideal place to stay during our visit for a mountain bike race. We had a restful sleep, enjoyed plenty of fishing, and savored the peaceful ambiance among the trees with stunning views. The host was incredibly accommodating and responsive, making our experience even better!

A grown-up treehouse on a lake

Lovely cabin getaway, in the trees, overlooking a beautiful lake. Great for solo or couple travellers. Optimal use of the incinerating toilet does require some planning.

2nd stay won’t be the last

Love this cabin and the location does much that I came back the next time I visited Olympia. It’s exceedingly comfortable and quiet. Perfect for not doing anything or filling your time with hiking, swimming or kayaking and/or a little of both—see you next summer!

Great place to stay

We had a fantastic time. The cabin was cute, cozy, and very comfortable. We had a great time sitting out on the balcony playing cards with the beautiful view of the lake. We would definitely stay again

Lake place with Tree house vibe

This lovely little cabin has all the quaintness of the old style lake cabins but is completely set up with everything you’ll need for a relaxed stay. The view is stunning and the quiet and comfort was just what I needed. I brought my elderly Mom out for the day to get her out of COVID isolation. She had no difficulty with the 5 stairs from the road and was content to sit in the deck for the day and take in the view.

Lovely and quaint

Just sitting outside on the lounge chairs watching the activity on the lake was relaxing enough. Will definitely stay again and get in the water next time.
