About this property

Stay at the best spot on the lake!

Spacious and bright, with large decks, beautiful views, and easy parking! At 1400 sq feet, it is perfect for small or large gatherings!

Located on the sunny side of the lake and just minutes to Highway 101 (the gateway to the greatest attractions of the Olympic National Park), lies the perfect base for your family's Pacific Northwest vacation: this delightfully comfortable 1400 sq ft 2 bedroom home!

Most homes on Lake Sutherland you have to hike down rickety stairs covered in slime and moss, hoping you won't slip and fall, to reach your home away from home. Not here!  Parking is just a few feet from your door.

Imagine relaxing with 180 degrees of beautiful lake and mountain views on the 500 sq ft deck, perhaps lounging in the amazing hot tub, recalling your adventures after a fun day spent at Hurricane Ridge or Sol Duc Hot Springs, planning an exciting hike through the Hoh Rainforest, or enjoying that book you finally have time to read!

The stunning views can just as easily be enjoyed inside, thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows in a gorgeous vaulted living room with rock fireplace. The airy and bright great room design also includes a full-sized kitchen stocked with dishes, cutlery, and cookware, and a dining area that seats 8.

Completing the main floor is a private bedroom with a comfortable king bed and ample closet space, as well as a full bathroom with a tub and shower, and a laundry room with a full-sized washer and dryer. 

Upstairs is a spacious, separate bedroom with two double beds and a half bath, as well as a loft area with another double bed, plus a kids play area, and more of those terrific views!

Enjoy the pure northwest air and majestic scenery when you sit out with your family and friends on the huge main floor deck, or cool off by diving into the lake from the 250 sq ft lower deck.

Yet another place to enjoy the view: relaxing in our hot tub! Seating for six, and overlooking the lake. Step easily from the extended deck into the hot tub!

We genuinely care about each of our guests! We have heard from you, that in the height of summer the house can get very hot in the afternoon. We are very happy to say that we have installed air conditioning, which keeps the house very comfortable! We have also added a double toaster, electric coffee bean grinder, a blender, and baking pans!

Another great amenity is cable TV with NFL package and access to your Netflix account, as well as WiFi! Enjoy your well-deserved down time by cheering on your favorite team and catching up on your shows. TVs are placed in the living room and in the downstairs bedroom!

Additionally, to enhance your stay, we have a stand up paddleboard and a canoe, fishing poles, boogie boards, and oodles of life jackets, in sizes from infant to adult! We have had such fun exploring the lake, and we know you will too!

Whether you are exploring all that the Olympic National Park offers, or you just want to live lake side for spell and soak in the splendor, this house is the perfect place to be!

Wonderful base for Olympic NP

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! It is a beautiful location and a great place to explore the Olympic peninsula from. We loved spending time on the deck overlooking the lake (saw a bald eagle most days!), relaxing in the hot tub and taking the canoe out. It was nice for the kids to have their own space upstairs. The online description was very accurate and we had everything we needed during our stay (and, enjoyed our freshly ground coffee on the deck each morning). Highly recommend!

A Memorable Stay in a Truly Special Spot

What an amazing property! The views are absolutely breathtaking—look down to see the glass-like water of the lake, and look up to admire the beautiful mountainsides blanketed in pine trees. It’s incredibly peaceful and serene, the perfect place to unwind and escape the cares of the world. A true gem for relaxation and reflection.

Weekend getaway

Absolutely loved our stay! The view of the lake in the listing does not do the property justice-- we were blown away with how stunning it is! Owners were good with communication and check in was easy. My only thing for when we book again is that we will bring our own soap/ shampoo/ conditioner, everything else was stocked well

Perfect Getaway

The stay went super. The house was clean and cozy and the kitchen was fully supplied with pots, pans, utensils. Communication with the host was instant. We did not have any issues at all getting into the property. This is definitely a perfect place on the lake. Huge plus it was dog friendly.

So fun!

We traveled in June and had so much fun. It was hot when we were there, with temps in the 70s and 80s. The AC did have a lot of trouble keeping up so the house was hot, especially upstairs. But there were fans that made the temps tolerable. Plus the lake was so refreshing. I think my kids spent the majority of the time at the house in the lake.

The property is not maintained. Every plate and cup had a chip in it - you can find much better cups at flea market…When we came, the property had a dingy or moldy smell. No matches or firewood to lit up fireplace. The toilet clogged twice for us during 2 nights stay. Bathtub didn't drain. Its not a 5 star place for sure. But the location is nice and owner was very responsive

Tranquil Getaway with a Dose of Freedom Birds

What a stunning setting! We had an absolute amazing time. Relaxing in the hot tub or inside enjoying our coffee and watching the bald eagles in the morning was magnificent. This home was so well stocked and much appreciated! We had a blast canoeing even though it is January! The home is located in a great location with easy access for meals and close to Olympia National Park.

Truly the best spot on the lake!

Just spent four days here and loved it! Listing is exactly as described. Comfortable and warm. Owners answered a couple issues on check in. (Couldnt figure out how to wake up the lock). March wasnt the right time of year to canoe, but it was there if we wanted it. A bonus was they are truly dog friendly and have doggy bags in a box next ti the trash can.immediately.

About the host

Hosted by Jesse & Kelsi

Host profile image
We are so excited to share our home with you! Our favorite things to do when we stay at the lake are paddleboard, swim, have BBQs, and feed the resident duck family! In the winter we love a roaring fire, board games, and enjoying the tranquil, refreshing views! The hot tub is wonderful year-round! We hope you enjoy our home and the Olympic Peninsula as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

Outstanding, unmatched views, and unique for having three key features that are rare for homes on Lake Sutherland: direct and easy lake access, ample parking right at the door, and sun ALL DAY. There isn't any other property available on Lake Sutherland like ours! In addition, we have a six-person, private hot tub!

There is plenty of space in our home for gatherings, and yet it is still inviting for intimate retreats.

This house is absolutely perfect for a getaway! Come stay and make marvelous memories!
