As you enter the front door, you will be welcomed with panoramic views of the lake and surrounding mountains. Here's an overview of each of the spaces in this cabin. THE MAIN FLOOR This open concept room has a living room area with a comfortable sofa and wood burning stove for those chilly fall and winter nights. There is a large dining table and an open kitchen with beautiful butcher block countertops. The kitchen is stocked with all you need to enjoy cooking—we hate rentals without sufficient kitchen gear- so rest assured we have stocked for our family and yours: - high quality knives, good collection of pots and pans, cookie sheets, cutting boards - variety of spices, olive oil, coffee, tea and sugar - an ample supply of kitchen towels - new induction range with air fryer, 8-cup drip coffee maker (no grinder), toaster, blender, hot water kettle, cheese grater, small rice maker, oyster shucking & crab cracker tools - Tablecloth and cloth napkins plus wipeable placemats for kids One thing to note is no dishwasher. Welcome to our cabin that was originally built in 1969! Enjoy taking in the views as you wash your dishes. There is also a ½ bath combined with laundry room adjoining the kitchen. The previous owners were amazing woodworkers so you will delight in a spiral staircase handcrafted from western red cedar wrapping around a large tree trunk. It gives the feeling of being in a tree house but please note that this is not great for little kids or those who are mobility challenged. Feel free to reach out to us to discuss if you have questions/concerns. TOP FLOOR: There are two bedrooms each with a queen bed plus one full bathroom accessible through the main bedroom with a large walk-in shower. - In the main bedroom, wake up to the gorgeous view! We offer sleeping masks if needed and apologies to those who don’t like to be awakened with the early PNW sunrise. For a quiet workspace, we added a beautiful live edge desk and soft suede chair. -The 2nd bedroom has a view of Otter Cove (yes! there are river otters!) and when it is not covered in mist, the peak of Mt. Elinor. It also has blackout shades for those who want to sleep in. ** rest assured that we and our cleaner have high standards and sheets + duvet covers are washed after every guest. We know that this is not industry standard but we think it is essential to feeling right at home*** LOWER LEVEL: The lower level is one great room (550 sq. feet) divided into two areas. - One side is the entertainment area with a large comfortable sofa, leather arm chair & ottoman, soft blankets and 70” Smart TV with access to streaming platforms. We have a collection of games, books and yoga mats for our guests to enjoy. - The other side of the room is set up as a 3rd sleeping area with custom perpendicular (adult height) bunk beds spaced so that sleepers on both sides can sit up without knocking their heads and can easily exit. - In the far back corner, the 2nd full bathroom with bathtub and shower - For the kids, our daughter created the Owlets Hangout, a comfy nook under the spiral staircase with pillows and cushions OUTDOORS: Upstairs off the main room is one large deck wraps around the front of the cabin and provides a great place for enjoying the sunsets. We are west facing so in the summer you will have long warm afternoons and evenings. It can get bright so we have a large umbrella so you don’t get too blasted by the rays. The deck has Adirondack chairs for relaxing, an outdoor dining table and a propane BBQ. Heading out the sliding glass door downstairs enjoy a small covered sitting area, hammock and fire pit. When there is not a fire ban (typically ban is mid July- September), campfires and s’mores here are the best! Our cabin is lakefront and has a long and creative dock built onto a tree trunk which is generally accessible during the SUMMER from Memorial Day until Labor Day when the lake level is up. A steep wood chipped path leads down to the shoreline. Due to strict regulations in the area we have been unable to make basic improvements to the dock, landing and shoreline area (though we are in year 3 of the arduous permitting process) so this area is open to use AT YOUR OWN RISK. It is not dangerous per se, but getting on to plank to the dock can be an adventure depending on the water level. We do our best to keep it tethered in a way that makes it easily accessible, but it has been known to knock off on a windy night. We suggest you bring water shoes and an open adventurous spirit. When you do make it to the dock, you are for a treat-- it is long, boasts fantastical views and perfect for spending summer days playing and relaxing. During the summer WE PROVIDE ALL THE LAKE TOYS YOU NEED including 2 SUPS, a canoe, a pedal boat, a kids kayak, and a 16 ft touring kayak. An array of life vests are also available along with a knee board, wake board and a few older water-skis too (in case you bring your own motorized boat). If you want to use the boat launch just across the cove, please let us know in advance so we can arrange a pass for you (non-motorized is free, motorized $50/day). Also note that we have installed a Level 2 Tesla charger for guests who drive an EV and need a charge. An adapter is available for non-Tesla cars. ------------ Awe-inspiring views year-round, direct access to the lake during the summer, sparkling clean, comfy beds and bedding, a well stocked kitchen, space for everyone + a friendly responsive host who wants you to have an amazing time… what more could you ask for?! If you have any questions for us about the space, don’t hesitate to ask. This is our family’s happy place and it gives us joy to share it with others. We are in Division 3 which is the very northern end of the lake and 20 minutes from the town of Hoodsport. We are the closest Cushman development to the Staircase Entrance of Olympic National Park (just 5 miles away) and just a few minutes’ drive to trailheads for Mount Ellinor, Mount Rose and Big Creek.
