What a beautiful location on Sylvia Lake. The area is quite rural but you don’t have to drive far for shopping, golf, good restaurants and friendly folks. We loved sitting on the deck and watching the wildlife. My granddaughter and I also had fun pedaling in the boat around the lake. The house was a perfect size and the king size bed was so comfortable. What a great find after spending the last five years vacationing in Poulsbo. We hope to return next summer, Thanks Michelle and John for always being on call for any questions!

Second time staying at this lovely home, we love it. It is exactly as pictured but better and the hosts keep it in GREAT shape, which can be an issue at times. Our family lives down the road and love hanging out when we have such a beautiful location for all to enjoy. There is fun stuff for kids in the hall closet and the paddle boat at the lake. Coffee on the deck, geese with their goslings, a serene setting for everyone. We’re planning on coming again.

This is a well thought out home, that was extremely clean, beautiful and user-friendly. The lake is beautiful to look at with lots of bird-life. I should have brought binoculars!

I booked this place on behalf of my family who came to town for a celebration. They had nothing but positive things to say about this place. They have mentioned multiple times about keeping this location in mind for future bookings snd they were very pleased with their stay overall.

This was a wonderful place to spend our first siblings vacation. The setting is beautiful and you can see the lake from so many places in the home. The home was spotless, kitchen well-stocked and plenty of comfortable spaces for the family to catch up and remember our childhood. It is on my list of favorite VRBO places.

Met up with family from California for a relaxing visit by the lake. We had everything we needed and were a short drive to the harbor and close to two parks and the bay. We even saw deer nearby! Thank you for a great stay!
