We had a great stay at the A-Frame recently. The hosts provided the little extras that made our trip feel like a vacation. It was a perfect place for us to have access to the city for the World Cup, but was far enough away that we could switch into relaxation mode for the rest of the trip.

The host was wonderful, the property was even better. Our family enjoyed the games prepared and the kayaks! The kitchen was fully stocked and I appreciate the little touches to make it special—nice lake towels to use, staples in the pantry, and fishing rods in the closet. Th cabin was beautifully decorated and had comfy beds. A nice reprieve from our tour through Olympic National Park!

This was a very clean and beautiful house. Nicely decorated, and an outstanding stocked kitchen. We were a group of retired teachers, and all of us were very pleased with the comfort, cleanliness, and views of the lake. The host, Marian, was so very accommodating and easy to communicate with. We will come back again.

The house was just as described. Beautiful view from the deck and living room. Beds were comfortable and kitchen outfitting nicely for home cooking. The neighborhood is large but didn’t see many people around as we came and went. Communication from the owner was perfect. Nice place to relax and take in the scenery.

This is a great A-Frame. The use of space and layout were very effective. We had two couples and a child and there would have been space for more of us. The kitchen was function and very well stocked which made meal prep easy. It was very quiet. I think we there at the shoulder season so the other houses on the small lake felt empty and the lake activity was minimal. It is a small lake and the other houses are fairly close to the a-frame so I could see it being louder on a nice summer weekend. If I had one bone to pick it would be that there was no fire wood available for the huge fireplace. Quick shout-out to the pillows too - very good haha.

The A-Frame was located in a perfect setting and was a perfect place to stay after very busy days attending a funeral and burial services in the area. We enjoyed being out on the deck watching the ducks swim around, eagles swoop down trying to take fish from a fisherman in his boat and seeing fish jump out of the lake and hearing the frogs at night. The owner kept in contact with us before, during and after our stay.
