Lake house

We really enjoyed our stay at the property. The lake was great and we really enjoyed being able to use the canoe. Fishing was great and we had all of the amenities we needed.

Relaxation heaven

This place was exactly what we were looking for. Clean, comfortable and away from the “rush” of our day to day world. The lake was awesome, everything worked and we completely enjoyed our week here. Thank you very much Kim

Sunset Cabin

My family and I have stayed ay Grampys Cabin twice and now the Sunset Cabin. Both are amazing to stay at. This year was our first at the Sunset Cabin. Our favorite aspeect was the beach access. Being able to just walk right out of the house and be right onto the lake was perfect. We will continue to make this our annual vacationtrip..

Great Family Getaway

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. There were a few concerns- the BBQ was not clean and it was difficult to start. The owner may want to invest in a new one. There was broken glass on the beach - fortunately we were wearing shoes so no injuries but someone should look into that. The place needs a good clean (dust, fingerprints). Otherwise it was a great place for a family vacation.

Amazing Spot! 100 percent

Our trip to Washington would not have been complete without staying at the Sunset cabin. Everything in the cabin was so convenient and easily located. It had all the supplies necessary for our family of five with three small children to enjoy a week at the lake. Its proximity to both Olympic national Park and Mount Rainier national Park made it a great central spot for us to visit both locations. The lake was beautiful and having access to a canoe at our stay allowed our girls to enjoy the fishing and swimming aspect. The beds were super comfortable and access to both a washer and dryer during our stay made the day to day activities streamlined. We were able to visit so many cool locations during the day and come home to enjoy afternoon activities on the lake.

A lovely lake

There was some confusion following booking. The property management company requires extra paperwork to be signed outside of Vrbo that was not clearly called out during booking. Under threat of cancellation, we agreed to sign. But really this is something the owners should work out with Vrbo rather than the renters.

Hi Cooper! Thank you for your feedback! When you book with VRBO - there are "house rules" that provide information on what is expected from the owners/managers. Ours clearly state that you are required to complete and return the attached rental agreement and COVID statement within 24 hours of booking. I hope you were able to enjoy your time at the cabin! Going forward, be sure to check the house rules on your bookings as well as the cancellation policies. Thanks again for your feedback! Sincerely, Kim
