About this property

Lakefront Cabin w/stunning views & private dock! Fish, swim, boat, grill & chill

Welcome to our peaceful lakeside retreat, nestled away from the hustle and bustle of city life. This stunning cabin offers a serene escape for writers, dreamers, and those seeking a much-needed break. Note: Sleeping arrangements for 2 adults consist of two very comfortable sofa beds, complete with soft linens and pillows, and mattress protectors to keep things clean before and after your stay. You will need to make up your bed with the linens provided in the pine cupboard, before bed each night. This property has a maximum 2 nights stay.

Water conservation is critical, it's important to note that our water supply is limited. However, you'll have access to an outdoor shower for refreshing rinses. Please be aware that there is no dishwasher available so you will need to hand wash dishes used before check out.

We have a unique and easy to use incinerator toilet that safely burns waste, requiring just three simple steps.

We want to ensure that our guests have an accurate understanding of our accommodations. The cabin sleeps 2 adults, and we regretfully cannot accommodate pets due to the owner's allergies. We have a limited number of reviews as we offer the cabin for rent on a very exclusive basis.

Enjoy breathtaking sunset views over the lake and direct access to Summit Lake for seasonal fishing, boating, kayaking, and swimming. Imagine waking up in a tree house and soaking in the beauty of the sunset from the cabin or our picturesque dock. This experience offers a tranquil and scenic retreat that is not to be missed.

Summit Lake is home to a variety of fish species, including rainbow trout, kokanee, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, yellow perch, brown bullhead, pumpkinseed sunfish, coastal cutthroat, and northern pike minnow. Don't forget to bring your fishing gear and bait for a memorable angling adventure.

While our cabin and property have a compact layout, they provide more than enough comfort for a weekend visit. The cabin features an entry area for your coats and shoes, a dining area with a spacious round table, a kitchen, a living room area, and a powder room bathroom. The living room area includes two sofas that fold into queen-sized beds. For your entertainment, we have a mounted ROKU TV in the corner, perfect for relaxing and enjoying Netflix and other TV apps.

To ensure peace of mind during your stay, we offer a damage protection plan through Waived. The rental "Property Fee" provides guests with $1500 of comprehensive damage protection coverage for each stay.

Our location is conveniently located just a 15 to 20-minute drive away from restaurants, shopping, and antiquing in and around Olympia. Additionally, you can reach the Pacific Ocean beaches and explore the hiking trails of the Olympic Peninsula in less than a two-hour drive.

We pride ourselves on maintaining the cleanliness and purity of Summit Lake, which serves as a drinking water source for our neighbors. As a result, our property does not have a septic system, shower, or bathtub. However, we provide a small kitchen sink and a separate sink for handwashing. We strictly permit the use of environmentally safe soaps for both dishes and personal hygiene. For your convenience, we have an incinerating toilet available for guest use, which must be operated differently from a standard flush toilet.

Come and experience the tranquility and natural beauty of our lakeside retreat. Book your stay now and create cherished memories in this idyllic setting.
Guests must provide photo ID, sign rental rules, and agree to proper use and care of the incinerator toilet before reservation is fully booked.

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.

About the host

Hosted by Yvonne

Host profile image
I live and work in the Seattle area and enjoy heading to Summit Lake for kayaking and summer swimming. This 50's fishing cabin is a sophisticated tree-house-like studio with dock access if you want to bring your boat.

Why they chose this property

This cabin is cozy and comfortable, but you are just steps from the lake! The swimming in the summer can't be beat.

What makes this property unique

The spot is ideal because you really are getting a camp like experience, but it is still very close to Olympia's shops and restaurants.
