Why the Owner Chose Lake Cushman: My family built this cabin to be the summer and winter get away for hiking trips and lake activities. Lake Cushman is a favorite vacation destination for many people as well as a full time home for others because of its unmatched beauty nestled in the Olympic mountains.

This is our new favorite local spot.Ther's really nothing bad about it.We loved playing Battleship in kitchen.Reading on deck with lakeview was awesome!
We had a great time staying at the family Lake place. We also rented the cabana apartment, which worked out perfect for us.Playing at the lake was just what we were looking for.That extra couch beds were really quite comfortable.
We spent our 2nd Memorial Day at the Family Lake Place and like it so much we brought another family with us to share the experience. The property is perfect for a long, relaxing weekend near Lake Cushman, including lake/park access and all the in-home amenities you’d expect. Corlen is a wonderful and communicative host who ensured we had a great stay. 5/5 stars and already planning our next trip!
Great stay at the lake house. Home was perfect for my two adult children, teenage kid and myself. Good memories were made. Don’t skip out on the nearby staircase trail. It wasn’t even on my list of to dos prior to arriving but was probably my favorite hike in Olympic national park. The house has every accommodation. Great propane grill and we loved eating our meals on the deck.
Directions were clear. Getting in was easy once my husband figured out the lock box (we are old and dumb, lol). Huge fridge--everything you need is in the kitchen. I would recommend bringing your own non-stick pan, however, if you aren't used to the stainless steel. There was a learning curve for me. TONS of games and books. The upstairs is extra-cool with a family room, big TV, and beautiful windows! The deck situation is amazing! Beds were cozy. My entire family was happy to visit and sad to leave. Thank you for being such a great host, quick to respond to questions, and giving our family a beautiful weekend.
Great place to stay while going to Olympic National Park. The little town center of Hoodsport was about 30 min away and had a grocery store and cute little coffee shop that we went to most days. Plenty of space and the backyard has an amazing view of the lake.
House was nice and cozy, quiet neighborhood, it was nice to get away from city life, property manager was quick to respond to concerns we had with the roads after it snowed before our arrival, hopefully we can set up another stay for sometime this summer.
Amazing house tucked away from city hustle and bustle.
Property is in a great location away from the hustle and bustle. We used it as our base camp for seeing the National Parks. We had everything we needed and Corlen always responded quickly if we had questions. Would definitely stay there again!
A wonderful place to stay- great location, great house, well furnished, well supplied, clean, comfy, and well-priced. Owner/manager was easy to communicate with and very supportive. Honestly, what else could you want from a rental?
This is our fourth year renting this lake house and we love it! Great for large families as you can rent the extra gazebo space if needed. The house has everything we need and is within short walking distance to the lake.
We love the private beach - it's clean and has a volleyball net which we take full advantage of.
The owner is very accommodating and easy to work with.
Highly recommend!
We had a great time on our family trip. There was plenty of room for all 8 of us and our doggie. Lots of kitchen choices which made it so easy to cook! Fireplace made it so cozy!! Beautiful area
I come to Cushman every summer. My friend and I loved staying at this property due to how close it is to the private park and swim area. The house was so cute and classic. It was VERY hot during our stay but the house had plenty of fans to run to keep us as cool as possible. Love this house and will definitely return.
We are so grateful to Corlen for making our retreat experience extra special. Thank you so much!! We had everything we needed and if we had any extra questions, Corlen was always very responsive and graciously accomodating. The view is beyond incredible. Having such close access to the wonders of the Olympics and Lake Cushman was priceless.
What a cute and fun family lake house! We loved staying here, just a short walk from our family property and the park. Amazing views, peaceful vibe, nostalgic VHS and DVD movies, you can feel the family energy in this house and how many families have enjoyed it. Overall an absolutely perfect house for a family camping trip. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Lake Cushman!
This property is a perfect lake getaway! House had plenty of room for our family and all the amenities you’d need for a stress-free weekend away. Corlen is welcoming and accommodating as a host.
5 out of 5 - highly recommend!
