About this property

The Forest Retreat

Your retreat from the hustle and bustle in the heart of the forest, while being close to town. This rustic and peaceful cabin offers a cozy retreat for guests. Nestled in a serene setting, you'll find comfort and relaxation here while living off grid. The cabin features 2 queen beds and 1 full bed, ensuring a restful night's sleep for everyone. One bedroom downstairs with a queen and a loft upstairs with the full and additional queen bed. With wood stove heating and nature all around you— your stay will be completely relaxing. We even have an incredible push button heater for chilly mornings when you want heat immediately. Immerse yourself in the marvelous surroundings and take in the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Whether you're exploring the nearby hiking trails or simply enjoying a cup of coffee on the deck while watching the hummingbirds, this cabin is a unique getaway. Feel free to reach out to us during your stay - we're happy to suggest local spots to check out. Our cabin is conveniently placed in between Forks and the beaches (Mora, Lapush, etc). Unplug being the key word but we also want our guests to have options so our cabin does offer Wi-Fi … come here to refresh and walk away feeling renewed. The cabin is rustic - some things are a little quirky but we love it and hope you do too!

We allow pets at the cabin by approval only. There is an additional cleaning fee for any pet so let us know size or your pet(s) with your booking request. Also, we schedule extra days in between visits for cleanings and to recharge the solar if needed. If you are wanting more days than what are available on the calendar please send a request!

Overpriced for what you get. Not a place I would rent again. Not up to Vrbo standards…and I have stayed at many.

This is a nice cozy cabin in a beautiful location, nestled in the woods and a good home base for visiting the west side of Olympic National Park.

We had a blast at this cabin and I would recommend it with some disclaimers. The property was beautiful and the stars at night were stunning!! My kids had a blast playing in the yard and it was a great home base for exploring that part of ONP. That being said the beds, pillows, and outdoor furniture needed to be replaced desperately. The pillows were so flat and there were no extra ones upstairs. There were only 3 working lawn chairs. The 4th had a piece of plywood and a pillow on to replace the seat. We had a party of 6 and no one wanted to sit on it. The additional folding chairs were meant for inside and were not super stable in the grass. For the cost of the stay, I feel like these things should have been in better shape. Also for planning purposes. This cabin is off the beaten path. You have a 5-10 drive on gravel roads to get to the cabin. This was not a big deal to us but plan accordingly. The owners were very helpful and we appreciated their communication.

Thank you for staying with us and we are glad you enjoyed it! Our cabin is off the beaten path which is part of it's draw and charm but also comes with challenges. When chairs break or things happen we can't always get replacements quickly. Our new outdoor chairs have arrived and we are sorry that was upsetting to you. Our downstairs bed and one upstairs matress were both replaced recently and extra pillows were in the main bedroom and closet in the hall. I'm sorry you didn't see them. We don't live in the area so we've hired caretakers and will take all of your comments into consideration - thanks again for staying at our rustic off-grid cabin in the woods!

Nice quiet get away

This little off grid cabin was out in the woods and we loved it. It was so peaceful and quiet. We had zero problems with it being off grid. We were mindful of the electricity we used tho. The bathroom wasn’t the cleanest, but as stated it was due to water stains from before a filter install. The property manager was super friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again to escape the world for a few days. Plus it was real close to town and the beach. The rainforest was about an hour away. Only suggestion would be to have some more solar lights available for extra peace of mind. But again we had zero issues with power or water
