About this property

Mountain Retreat at Lake Cushman

Relax and enjoy life at Lake Cushman in this spacious vacation home. This retreat boasts views of Lake Cushman, Mt. Rose and Mt. Ellinor.

There's plenty of room for the family with 3 sleeping areas, 2 bathrooms, living room, dining room, a full kitchen and a small game room. All 3 sleeping areas have queen size beds. Both bathrooms have stand-up shower stalls. The bathroom on the main floor has a stacked washer and dryer.

Enjoy your morning coffee and take in the view of the Olympic Mountains on the master bedroom balcony. The beautiful, updated kitchen has everything you need: new, stainless-steel appliances, toaster, microwave, crock pot, Keurig coffee maker, dishes, silverware, pots & pans, cookware and bakeware. Cook outdoors on the propane grill and eat alfresco on the large deck that sports a partial view of the lake and remote-controlled awning.

After a day of playing on the lake, make memories telling stories and roasting marshmallows around a campfire in the fire pit. Challenge friends to boardgames in the game room in the loft or a rousing game of foosball in the garage. Need to check in with the office while on vacation? Take advantage of the computer desk and task chair in the daylight basement while enjoying a view of the mountains. Our retreat has plenty of parking with both a carport and parking space in front of the garage.

Dogs are welcome. Smoking is permitted outdoors only. (Please note: WiFi is available in the house, but our home does not have a landline phone, satellite, or cable access. Cell phone access outside our home is limited and cannot be guaranteed.)

Excellent stay so close to the lake

We had a wonderful stay in this property that's an easy walk to Lake Cushman! Clean place with comfortable beds, beautiful deck, firepit, and a little view of the lake. We enjoyed hiking, kayaking, and paddleboarding nearby and grilling and lounging around the firepit at night. Thank you for a great stay!

Exactly what we needed

We wanted a relaxing and comfortable home base for some hiking and exploring with two teenage girls and this place had everything we needed. We like to cook for ourselves on vacation and both the kitchen and grill we're great, and we enjoyed the fire pit every night of our stay. Great access to the national park and national forest and beautiful Hood Canal.

Peaceful, relaxing and beautiful place to stay to unwind

Very clean, comfortable beds, nice kitchen and living room room area with all the amenities you need for your family. We really enjoyed the view of the mountain and lake from the deck while enjoying time with our friends and family. We highly recommend this place if you need a get away where you have a chance to enjoy the lake, hiking or to relax and read a good book. We hope to be back soon!

Excellent place

This home was exceedingly comfortable and clean. Our family felt so relaxed during our stay because this home and comfortable furniture, a great floor plan and the hosts seemed to have thought of everything. The park was just about a third of a mile away so this made swimming super easy. We will definitely come back!

So relaxing!

Our family had such a great time at this lovely lake house. Close to hiking and 2 beaches that we used to launch our paddle boats from. Local deer joined me for my morning coffee each day while I enjoyed my view of the lake. Thank you Joni for sharing your home with us. We can’t wait to come back!

Great stay

House has everything you need. We were gone most days from sunrise to sunset. Was nice to get back to a cozy quiet place. If you hit a sunny day take a drive to Hurricane Ridge or Mt Rainier. Also don’t miss Salmon cascades if salmon are running. Well worth the drive. Head down to the lake and watch the sunset to end your day. Joni was quick to respond to any of our questions.

Perfect!

We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend a week (away from the Phoenix heart). This was perfect. The owners think of everything and the house is well maintained. We were greeted with deer in three driveway upon our arrival, and it just got better fromm there. Unbelievable beauty. Best vacation I've had in years.

A Real Retreat

Loved the easy access doorknob code, outdoor seating areas, WiFi access, quick walk to the lakeshore park, and plenty of blankets. Didn’t enjoy the driving distance to convenience (20 min) store and grocery stores (45) or the gasoline tinged scent in the ground floor bedroom.

Perfect retreat getaway!

We really enjoyed this updated rental. It was as described and very comfortable for our group. My young adult son and my mother were with my husband and I. Our son enjoyed having the basement to himself. My mom uses a cane and walker and could easily access the rental. The only suggestion is to have the water heater adjusted to accommodate more than two showers with hot water. Joni was very responsive and helpful! Highly recommend staying here!

About the host

Hosted by Joni and Brian McAnally

Host profile image
We fell in love with Lake Cushman during our first visit there in 2009. We bought the lot next door to the Mountain Retreat at Lake Cushman in 2011 and would stay in our fifth wheel trailer on the RV pad. We purchased the house in 2018. We have made a lot of great family memories here and hope you and your family will do the same.
