About this property

Fantastic getaway
Beautiful out of the way home in a very quiet location. But close enough to town to not be any sort of problem to get what you need as far as groceries, etc.. We spent Thanksgiving here and it was wonderful. Plenty of room for our family and a fantastic vibe. If we get out to Yelm again we will definitely look them up.

Incredible
This place is named Oasis is an understatement. If you want to experience a touch of heaven stay here. Of all the places we rented during our 7000-mile trip around the US this place far exceeds all the rest. The Host Jessica truly makes you feel at home.

What makes this property unique

This property is a hidden gem just minutes from the city of Yelm. You'd never know you were that close to town! It is a special nature spot with many trees, flowers in the spring-fall, and plenty of wildlife species. The frogs, bumblebees, birds, and rabbits are plentiful!
