About this property

Secluded Lakefront Retreat on 7 acres on Lake Quinault

A very private home on Lake Quinault, the south entrance to the Olympic Peninsula National Park and just a few miles away from the famous Lake Quinault lodge and rainforest.

This home is perfect for a family retreat in the woods without sacrificing comforts of home. An open floor plan on the main floor with a complete guest suite and kids bunk room downstairs. Open loft master suite allows for lake views and a true cabin feel. Decks surround the house; enjoy the outdoors with a glass of wine overlooking the lake.

Amazing fishing right from the beach or go for a sunset paddle. Home has two double kayaks [available from May to September*] and is outfitted with all kinds of games for family fun (giant jenga, puzzles). Kitchen has everything you would need to cook your favorite family recipes or to grill up the trout you catch. Brand new kitchen appliances (fridge, stove/oven, dishwasher) just installed.

Just a mile into the small town of Amanda Park which sports a mercantile store (get all your groceries and your fishing license here), an internet cafe and a great little pizza joint/pool hall.

No better place to get away from it all and create amazing family memories.

There are two double kayaks and two kids sit on top kayaks available for guest use during the Spring and Summer*. There is also a good selection of life vests from kid size to adult (located in the storage bench in the breezeway).

* Due to rising level of the lake during the Fall and Winter months, it is not safe to kayak in Lake Quinault. Kayaks and paddleboard are available from May to September.

If you wish to bring your own water craft: Note that any boat, kayak or paddle board must be inspected before it can be used in the Lake Quinault. ***CURRENTLY ALL LAKE QUINAULT PERMIT/INSPECTION OFFICES ARE CLOSED***

Great location

Nice house but lots of concerns….The back door did not lock and felt uneasy staying in the house being we were a group of just females. The kitchen sink faucet was not attached, no heat or electric plugs working in the basement rooms. House was clean and a great location but again kind of unsafe with a door that we could not lock.

Rainforest Getaway

Beautiful location right on Lake Quinault. Very quick drive over to the Quinault Loop for hiking - several trail choices. The house is just as shown on-line. Lots of space for relaxing, well equipped kitchen and cozy bedrooms. It was breezy on the lake so we were only able to take the kayaks out a couple times...but on the morning of our departure the lake was glass calm and one of the loveliest paddles we've ever done.

Peaceful, Perfect Spot

Everything was extremely clean, comfortable, and easy to access. My dog spent most of her days in the lake and there were excellent dog towels for drying her off. The property is beautiful and quiet and central to a lot of places if you want to make your way around the peninsula. Highly recommend!

Beautiful place right on Lake Quinault

What a great place to stay on the Olympic Peninsula! We were only there for a short visit but sure wish we were able to stay longer… beautiful views from every window, fully equipped kitchen and lots of room for everyone. We had s’mores with a fire on the deck and even managed to squeeze in a paddle early morning with the kayaks- great stay!

Trout House is the place to stay.

Trout House is a great property. Lots of room to spread out, and a nice kitchen area to gather to play cards, eat, drink, and laugh. The view of the lake is lovely and the house is well stocked with games, bedding, towels (including for the lake and fur friends), and kitchen supplies. This is the cleanest vacation rental we have ever stayed in. Thank you.

Beautiful home on a beautiful lake

This home was perfect to spend 4 nights over the holiday. Cozy. Beautiful design. Wood fireplace. Excellent kitchen. And the view!!!Would love to come back in the summer when you can get out on the lake.Lost power twice because of high winds and intense rains. The owner tells you up front this is a thing for the area. We brought water jugs, candles, and extra wood, so we were prepared for short outages.

Trout House is an absolute treasure!

Wow - what a fabulous place. Right on the lake with views for days, total seclusion, dog-friendly. We spent a week there late November and the weather was fantastic, no rain (but chilly!). Did a lot of hiking, cruising around, beach-combing, reading, art projects, cooking, and playing games. No TV for the week! What a wonderful break! Highly recommend, and we plan to go back. The area is really cool and there is so much to explore. The house is very comfortable, great beds and fully stocked kitchen (although I brought my own turkey roaster pan).

About the host

Hosted by Kelly Kennedy

Host profile image
We are a family of 5 that loves to travel and has stayed at over 50 vrbo properties all over the world. So when we bought a lake house in the Olympic Peninsula rainforest we knew we had to share it with other families.

Why they chose this property

We love lakes! And Lake Quinault is beyond beautiful and peaceful. The house is on 7 acres and you may stay for a week and not see another soul on this part of the lake. Easy access to the Washington coast and great rainforest hikes.
