About this property

Mountain Retreat at Lake Cushman

Relax and enjoy life at Lake Cushman in this spacious vacation home. This retreat boasts views of Lake Cushman, Mt. Rose and Mt. Ellinor.

There's plenty of room for the family with 3 sleeping areas, 2 bathrooms, living room, dining room, a full kitchen and a small game room. All 3 sleeping areas have queen size beds. Both bathrooms have stand-up shower stalls. The bathroom on the main floor has a stacked washer and dryer.

Enjoy your morning coffee and take in the view of the Olympic Mountains on the master bedroom balcony. The beautiful, updated kitchen has everything you need: new, stainless-steel appliances, toaster, microwave, crock pot, Keurig coffee maker, dishes, silverware, pots & pans, cookware and bakeware. Cook outdoors on the propane grill and eat alfresco on the large deck that sports a partial view of the lake and remote-controlled awning.

After a day of playing on the lake, make memories telling stories and roasting marshmallows around a campfire in the fire pit. Challenge friends to boardgames in the game room in the loft or a rousing game of foosball in the garage. Need to check in with the office while on vacation? Take advantage of the computer desk and task chair in the daylight basement while enjoying a view of the mountains. Our retreat has plenty of parking with both a carport and parking space in front of the garage.

Dogs are welcome. Smoking is permitted outdoors only. (Please note: WiFi is available in the house, but our home does not have a landline phone, satellite, or cable access. Cell phone access outside our home is limited and cannot be guaranteed.)

Wonderful House and Location!

Our family of 5, 2 parents and 3 teens/young adults, had an amazing 4th of July weekend stay here. Loved the location within the Lake Cushman district, as it is in between the the primary parks/boat launches. Neighborhood is quiet and peacrful (aka no fireworks going off at all hours). Easy walks, or drives, to both. The house had everything we needed and is stocked with all the amenities for BBQ'ing, evening fires in the pit with marshmellow roasting sticks, life jackets for boating, camping chairs for the beach, etc. Also, it was a HOT weekend of weather. The house stays relatively cool, especially with the windows open in the evening. Joni, the host, is great! Very proactive on letting us know about parking passes and permits for using the lake, and was very responsive to my messages and questions. The community had lots of fun activities for the holiday weekend that we were able to participate in, and the lake was really refreshing with the hot weather. We've already booked our stay for next year!

Great stay

House has everything you need. We were gone most days from sunrise to sunset. Was nice to get back to a cozy quiet place. If you hit a sunny day take a drive to Hurricane Ridge or Mt Rainier. Also don’t miss Salmon cascades if salmon are running. Well worth the drive. Head down to the lake and watch the sunset to end your day. Joni was quick to respond to any of our questions.

Annual 3 sister trip

Each year the 3 sisters plan a trip. We have traveled in state, out of state and out of the country. This year at Lake Cushman was fabulous. So many hiking opportunities, the lake for paddle boarding and kayaking, the friendliness of the people and the quiet.

Summer vacation 2023

The property is located on a quiet cul de sac in one of the popular subdivisions. It has a beautiful view of the mountains and a partial view of the lake across the street. I enjoyed the view from the deck with my morning coffee. The house is very comfortable, clean and accomodated all of us nicely,(2 grandma's, adult daughter, and another daughter with her partner and 4 year old and 10 month old baby and a small dog) with the master bedroom & bath upstairs, the bedroom on the main level and the full size bed in the basement. The community park is close by with a boat launch and play equipment. We enjoyed a hike at Staircase, which is close by too and the kayaks. The owners were excellent with communication before and during our stay. We really appreciated the gas grill, especially when the power went out for a full day.in the subdivision. The neighbors were friendly and helpful too. We enjoyed watching the deer come through the area too.

Perfect Cabin by the Lake

We absolutely loved our stay on Lake Cushman. The house had everything we needed to cook our own meals, along with kayaks to enjoy. The area is quiet and peaceful. The neighbors were nice enough to move the garage can for us (thaank you!) And we enjoyed seeing the wildlife in the area. Thank you for a lovely stay. We hope to be back again!

We highly recommend this place if you need a get away where you have a chance to enjoy the lake, hiking or to relax and read a good book. We hope to be back soon!

Exactly what we needed

We wanted a relaxing and comfortable home base for some hiking and exploring with two teenage girls and this place had everything we needed. We like to cook for ourselves on vacation and both the kitchen and grill we're great, and we enjoyed the fire pit every night of our stay. Great access to the national park and national forest and beautiful Hood Canal.

Happy!

The property was cozy, perfect for all Fall trip. We loved exploring the neighborhood, and spent many hours at the beautiful lake. It was such a bonus for us that we could easily walk there. The space was clean and everything was set up as advertised. All questions were answered quickly. We recommend arriving during daylight hours as it was hard to find at night. However we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would gladly visit again.

Amazing House Makes for an Amazing Stay!

This house rocks the amenities and location! Everything from great wine openers and lime squeezers (sometimes the little things are BIG) and coffee, to wood for the fire pit, games, a sound bar. Great location and the use of the parking permit is a terrific perk. We loved our stay!

Perfect retreat getaway!

We really enjoyed this updated rental. It was as described and very comfortable for our group. My young adult son and my mother were with my husband and I. Our son enjoyed having the basement to himself. My mom uses a cane and walker and could easily access the rental. The only suggestion is to have the water heater adjusted to accommodate more than two showers with hot water. Joni was very responsive and helpful! Highly recommend staying here!

Perfect!

We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend a week (away from the Phoenix heart). This was perfect. The owners think of everything and the house is well maintained. We were greeted with deer in three driveway upon our arrival, and it just got better fromm there. Unbelievable beauty. Best vacation I've had in years.

Our family had such a great time at this lovely lake house. Close to hiking and 2 beaches that we used to launch our paddle boats from. Local deer joined me for my morning coffee each day while I enjoyed my view of the lake. Thank you Joni for sharing your home with us. We can’t wait to come back!

Awesome Lake House

This was a wonderful layout for our group, with the privacy for couples that a multi-level house offers. Everything was thoughtfully laid out and thoroughly clean. Everything about this house was well-maintained. A great place to relax in and unwind after a day on the lake or hiking.

A Real Retreat

Loved the easy access doorknob code, outdoor seating areas, WiFi access, quick walk to the lakeshore park, and plenty of blankets. Didn’t enjoy the driving distance to convenience (20 min) store and grocery stores (45) or the gasoline tinged scent in the ground floor bedroom.

About the host

Hosted by Joni and Brian McAnally

Host profile image
We fell in love with Lake Cushman during our first visit there in 2009. We bought the lot next door to the Mountain Retreat at Lake Cushman in 2011 and would stay in our fifth wheel trailer on the RV pad. We purchased the house in 2018. We have made a lot of great family memories here and hope you and your family will do the same.
