Incredible view and great yard. Great location and cozy house were excellent for a calm weekend. Easy to find and smooth check-in. Kitchen was very well stocked too and made it easy to have a DIY meal weekend for us. Carpets were a little dirty for our toddlers who live near the ground, but otherwise everything was excellent!

Seven Cedars was exactly what we were looking for, a quiet piece of heaven. My family was comfortable in our rooms and living space and enjoyed the paddle boards and kayaks on the lake. The kitchen was well equipped for a family dinner. The hosts were very helpful and easily accessible, while the groundskeeper was sure to help us remain comfortable.

Beautiful location and lovely home

We found everything we needed at this gorgeous spot on Lake Samish. It was the perfect location for my mom's 70th birthday. The house is very kid friendly with kayaks, life jackets, games and books. We spent everyday out on the lake and every night by the fire. I would definitely recommend this house to others in the future!

Booking this location a second time was the best choice we made for our trip! The entire family felt like we walked into an oasis of calm. Every need was provided for because the home is well stocked from towels to games, to bikes and amenities. The location is gorgeous and the weather was beautiful and classic Northwest in the Fall. Just what we wanted. If you want to relax and not worry about a thing, this is the place for you. Beds are so comfortable, kitchen is well stocked with dishes and appliances, neighborhood is quiet and even a laundry! I can't tell you enough how much we love this location. Our second stay here was as great as the first. If in doubt, stay here!!!
