The cabin is as cozy and inviting. It was also pet friendly which we really appreciated. The view and surroundings were spectacular. It was quiet and we felt we had good privacy. Check in/out was well explained and very simple.

Lovely location

We stayed for 2 nights in the Cardinal cabin, which is in the center of two similar cabins. The size was perfect and cozy for 2 people and the views were stunning! There are stairs down to the bay.

About the host

Hosted by Matt and KellyAnn Cope

Host profile image

Matt and KellyAnn recently took over management of this property from Lowell Point locals Paul and Lynda Paquette. Paul, a local builder known for his craftsman work, Silhouette Shingles, and the prominent designer of the property, was hired by his neighbor Lynda in the late 1990s to build the first cabin at Angels Rest. As they say, the rest is history! 7 units later, Paul and Lynda, happily married for 20+ years, are ready to retire from their work in hospitality. We have big shoes to fill and hold more honor than we describe, and we are happy to carry on this legacy of love as a part of the Salted Roots journey.

Why they chose this property

We couldn't be more honored to preserve the legacy that Paul and Lynda started with Angels Rest on Resurrection Bay. With its seasoned gardens, unbeatable location, and classic coastal charm, Salted Roots is excited to continue exceptional hospitality at the newly rebranded Rustic Roots.

What makes this property unique

Whether you are looking to stay steps from the beach in one of our rustic seaside cabins, or seeking approachable accommodation in one of our greenhouse suites, Rustic Roots has a place for you. This waterfront property is solar-powered and decorated with seasoned gardens. With all rooms having unique ocean views, the common areas include an onsite yoga studio, a shared backyard forested deck, multiple campfire rings, an outdoor kitchen, and a propane BBQ grill.
