The whole family is welcome at this lovely home in a woodsy neighborhood. You may feel surrounded by trees when you look out from the deck, and lighting up the firepit at night may produce true camping vibes. But your group (and the family dog) will love settling in for some fun the family's game room. An electronic dart board, Ping-Pong Table, and air hockey table are all installed to provide the most fun for your family. When folks start getting hungry, cook something up in the full kitchen or fire up the private gas grill. The loft bedroom is perfect for folks that want a true bunk-style experience. This home is ready to be your home away from home - just a little closer to the lake!

Over all a very beautiful place. The cleanliness wasn’t very clean. Beds very hard. And needed maybe more variety of pans. But over all I fell in love with the place and will be back if there’s availability….. Just pray it doesn’t rain the whole time. Lol

bad kitchen pans and coffee maker; house has a musty smell
The house was clean on the surface but has a musty smell and dirty carpets. The two frying pans are terroible and should be replaced with working non-stick ones. The coffee maker's carafe had to be propped up to drain coffee liquid into it; it should be replaced with a coffee maker that works properly. The DVD and VCR players aren't wired to the TV and the TV's controller had missing batteries. The lower patio and furniture were dirty and there was no broom for us to clean with. The surrounding neighborhood is nice, and the location to the private playground and swimming beach is excellent. We would recommend the property in the future.

Great house in a cool location
The only real issue we had during the trip was the fact that the front door lock did not work as advertised (I think it was a combination of the lock's keypad not being intuitive as well as the lock itself being sticky), which meant we had to call into Vacasa in order to get into the property. Once we finally got in and settled we had a great time, and really enjoyed the house..

Great location near private lake front park. Accomodated our family of 7 very nicely with dogs as well. Biggest negative was noisy “crunching” sound of bed on main floor

Nice home in lovely location
Overall an enjoyable home to stay in and the location is relaxing with a lot to offer,. The nearby private beach (5-10 m walk) on Lake Cushman is beautiful and a wonderful resource for adults and children (and dogs). There is nice hiking from the nearby Big Creek Campground and beautiful trails at the Olympic National Park's Staircase entrance about 20 minutes away. In the house itself, the downstairs rec room is spacious; the two patios and surrounding woods are lovely. Two negatives: (1) the mattress in the main floor bedroom is very noisy (squeaky); and there is no place to store clothes in the downstairs bedroom (closet and trunk are full of owner's possessions and there is no drawer space).

Alpine at Lake Cushman
Very nice cabin, in a quiet community right on the lake. Walking distance to private community park with breathtaking lake views. The cabin was well stocked for all our needs, very easy process start to finish, fast responses from management, overall very impressed and would recommend to anyone needing a little R&R away from city hustle and bustle.

Nothing on listing is true
Listing talked about a pass to Lake Cushman private park, which we never received even after multiple reminders. Description also talks about a full kitchen, coffee machine was broke…benefit of doubt given....machines break all the time and it can happen..but replacement comes after 2 days after many reminders, while we had to travel 10 miles one -way to reach the nearest coffee shop! We enter the house and there’s no description of remotes…after trying various combinations we realize that the correct remote is out AAA batteries and off we go to the nearest grocery store ..15 miles away… Beautiful place ..but expectations were not set properly..wasted a lot of time in reminders and communicating with property manager portal…not my idea of a vacation!!!!

Wonderful lakehouse…housekeeping needs addressing
We come to Lake Cushman every year and rent a lakehouse for a week. Alpine house was a great home with quick access to the day use area! The neighborhood and ambiance of the community is second to none. We have always felt safe and welcome. The game room downstairs, the deck and outdoor areas were a hit! After reading past reviews we brought our own box fans, and were happy we did! Areas of concern are: the dishwasher is in severe need of repair (rotator and door) or replacement. Upon entering the home the outdoor trash was not emptied. It made for an interesting 4/5 day stay with smooshing others people’s trash (and ours)down all week. There were unfolded half dry towels left in the dryer, and the guest bedroom hamper had dirty towels on there as well. Good news is that the washer and dryer worked great so we were able to take of the laundry/towel issue quickly, but that’s not some thing you plan on doing when you arrive in vacation. We ended up buying a grill brush for the grill and leaving it for the next family as well. The house itself is wonderful, but it’s obvious that the housekeeping cuts corners.

Many benefits but needs some improvements
This is a nice house in a wonderful location. I especially liked the two decks and fire pit. The nearby beach is ideal for swimming for young children and the Olympic National Park Staircase entrance with beautiful hikes is not far away. We had a good time and I would happily give 5 stars except for some amenities that badly need improvement. The mattress in main floor bedroom has very loud creaky springs easily heard on the floor below; the dishwasher is cheap with flimsy and awkward racks that come hurtling out when you open the door; the main pots and pans are pitted; the bottom floor bedroom closet is completely full with owner's Xmas stuff and no rack to hang clothes, plus there are no dressers in that bedroom either so there is no place to store clothes in that room. Also the soft foam mattress in one of the loft beds may not be to everyone's taste. We would love to see these features upgraded!

Wonderful spot!
Had a great stay at this cabin. Would have loved to know that amenities are a 30-min drive away, and that the lake doesn’t fill until after Memorial Day weekend. Otherwise, the cabin was great and had everything we needed.

Everything was exceptional. Clean, bright, and casually decorated for a nice place to get away. Even though it is in a neighborhood, it is very private. Our dogs could roam outside without leaving the yard.

This place is beautiful and it had classic feel to it. The house was clean and so was the property. We had fun with the provided games. The place is very convenient to the lake. We really enjoyed our stay. While we were there the storm cut out the power for 6 hours. It was even comfortable in black out conditions.
