Rustic Lakefront Cabin with Bonus 'Tree House' - A Place to Unwind

“Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home…” John Muir

If you're looking for a place to unplug from technology and experience the beauty of the Olympic National Forest, this cabin is the place for you.

This classic 1950’s lake cabin is nestled in the woods with the Olympic National Park behind it and Lake Sutherland only a few steps out the door. The cabin has all original cedar with huge windows facing the lake, wood beamed ceilings and a cozy wood burning stove. This lakefront property is nestled in a cove, with an impressive deck and dock area.

There are two bedrooms with queen size beds in the main cabin, a bathroom with a shower, and two sofa beds in the living room (a full size bed and a twin bed). There is also a second, private cabin with a queen bed, half bath and deck, that has a tree house feel.

If you like adventures, you will not run out of things to do. The location is a perfect base for so many short trips to Lake Crescent, Hurricane Ridge, Sol Duc hot springs, ocean beaches, the ferry to Victoria, hundreds of hiking trails, and the state's best fly fishing rivers. In the summer, you can swim and kayak on the lake. In the winter, you can ski or inner tube at Hurricane Ridge.

If you like relaxing, you will not want to go anywhere else. The deck is as big as the cabin and has steps into the lake. In the summer, you can swim, kayak or have a campfire. In the fall, you will see gorgeous colors all around. In the winter, you feel like you’re on the lake even when you’re on the couch next to the wood burning stove with a good book or playing games at the table. There is no wi-fi or cable to distract you from being present. Running next to the property is a creek that flows year around.

Please note that the path leading to the cabin is rather steep, and may be difficult for people with mobility issues.

Absolutely loved this home. Driveway access and pathway to the house are very steep, so plan for that. Once you get to the home it is absolutely beautiful. Although you are surrounded by homes you feel very secluded and private. Felt homey and comfortable. The kayaks are very easy to access and the lake is perfect for kayaking.

What a special cabin!
There is something about this home and this spot that makes your blood pressure drop the minute you arrive. We loved our family time here, and it's a fantastic jumping-off spot from numerous ONP hikes and attractions. Most notable: super helpful hosts, quality, comfy beds and linens, unbeatable views from the deck, well-equipped kitchen and great spot to cook together, LOTS of blankets ... we loved sitting outside with the blankets and our early am coffee watching the fog roll over the lake. Thank you for sharing your cozy cabin, Jenny & Dustin.

Gorgeous spot!
This place is absolutely stunning, cozy and comfortable. Perfect for unwinding; amazing location. I highly recommend taking the kayak out on the lake and heading to Granny's Cafe for dinner (4 min away). Would stay here again for sure.

Beautiful cabin
My friends and I loved staying at this cabin. It was so cute and cozy. We didn’t miss wifi at all and enjoyed picking out movies to watch! The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfy. The view is absolutely amazing! We would definitely recommend staying here and we hope to come back one day!

Charming lake house
We so enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It was very clean, and had no musty odor, despite being so near to the lake. It felt very private due to the arrangement of the windows, walls and outbuildings, though it is pretty close to neighboring homes (the "treehouse" felt a little less private, since it was close to the driveway and overlooked the neighbor's yard). The driveway was a little intimidating for us flat-landers, but we figured out that if we drove past it and turned around, it was easier to approach from the other direction. The house is within a 30 minute drive of several of the ONP attractions, but just being at this charming house was very special.

This was our second year doing staycation. We love having the separate tree house. Owners are very quick to answer questions. Kids & I love the diving board & huge deck outside. Costs going up next year, but hoping we can work out to make it a 3rd year

Amazing home!
We had a wonderful weekend visiting with friends! The home was clean, had a spacious deck on the water, and plenty of room for 3 couples. The location is perfect for visiting Olympic National Park, Port Angeles, or just hanging out at the lake. Kitchen was well stocked and the kayaks were great. Thank you!

Wonderful waterfront cabin
We had another wonderful visit packed with memory making for our family. This was our fifth year here and our daughter was proposed to on the dock! Very special, indeed. The property owners are wonderful communicators and everything is as advertised. We took multiple hikes, bike rides, swims, s’mores, movies, and board games! Looking forward to coming back again.

A cozy little cabin on the lake with a huge dock. Swimming, diving, kayaking! The location on Lake Sutherland puts you a short drive from most of the highlights of Olympic National Park. My family loved our stay.

Great Lake house
This was our 2nd time renting this spot. The house is great. The extra tree house was perfect for our teen girls. Proximity to the water is perfect. There is a slightly steep walk down from the car to the house, but once you're unpacked, you're set. Would recommend

Perfect Getaway
My wife, kids, and I had a great time at the cabin, it was the perfect getaway. The cabin was very clean and stocked with everything we needed to cook every day. Being right on Lake Sutherland, it was the perfect base camp to visit Olympic National Park and Cape Flattery. We enjoyed the kayaks and diving board. Our kids were swimming almost every evening, and playing the Super Nintendo (brought back some old memories for me). The neighborhood was great, safe and quiet. Beds were all comfortable, and cabin was very relaxing. We spent a lot of time on the deck relaxing and watching sunrises. There is a nice little area for sitting around the fire pit, and grilling. Cabin was perfect location, clean, quiet, and very comfortable.

Amazing
What a beautiful property! It was perfect for checking out Olympic NP. It was in the middle of many entrances and just around the corner from Crescent Lake. If the NPs are your thing, the deck is amazing for relaxing, and kayaks are available for paddling on the lake. The house's layout was perfect. Our family had three different groups, and it felt like the house was set up in thirds. My husband and I took the small add-on room to the side of the house with a hallway separating us from the main house. Our nephew and his family took the main house (one bedroom with the fold-out couch), and my brother took the tree house. We all had plenty of space for privacy. The amenities are excellent. The washer and dryer work great, and soap is included. The DVD collection is extensive, and the boys enjoyed several movies. The bathroom is clean and has soap and towels. The only negatives (if you can even call them that) are that there is only one shower for seven people and the floor slopes. Once again, this is a beautiful property with an excellent location, and a deck on the lake is the perfect gathering point for your group to share the adventures of the park.

Excellent home and location!
This cabin is absolutely fantastic! Direct water access and incredible views! The layout is perfect and the tree house is super cool too. We traveled with our 2 adult boys and there was plenty of room for all of us. Furniture is comfortable and the rooms all take advantage of the spectacular views. We cooked every day and there was plenty of space for all of us to be around the counter and also sit down together (inside and outside). Only 15 minutes to Port Angeles and to one of the Olympic National Park entrances (Hurricane Ridge). The ferry line is also in Port Angeles and very easy to use. Only about 10 minutes to Lake Crescent Lodge (great souvenir shop)! About an hour and 45 minutes to the Hoh Rainforest ONP entrance. This is one of our favorite VRBO bookings ever, and we have rented a fair amount.

A perfect oasis!
We had a perfect three night stay at the cabin. It is not how it is described in the overview— it is even better! It is located in a very quiet neighborhood. The cabin is cozy and feels like you are stepping into an old friend’s house. We loved all the natural light and the big picture windows so you felt like you were always on the deck. We couldn’t get over the picture perfect views we experienced throughout the day on the lake. We are already planning to come back for an extended period. My fiancée, who can be a bear to get to go on vacation, said more than once this was the best place he had ever stayed and wants to know when we can come back. My most important part— The kitchen, while small, comes equipped with everything you need for cooking in during your stay (one of my favorite parts!) as well as a grill. The hosts have thought of everything you need! (Aside: We came from the west and got some groceries in Forks. Port Angeles definitely had better seafood and overall grocery selection). You are close enough to Port Angeles to head over for meals, too. The property is centrally located to so many hiking trails in Olympic! This is a perfect location and home. You’ll make some wonderful memories here, promised!
