Amazing stay!!

We had such a nice stay in the Heron House! The bed was very comfy, and both bathroom and kitchen were well stocked. We really enjoyed the view and appreciated how supportive they were with our check-in. This was the best stay of our trip and we will absolutely seek it out again for future trips to Shelton.

We loved this beautiful and tastefully appointed cabin in Olympia. It was a great stopping point en route to the Oregon Coast for a camping trip, and our young kids enjoyed seeing the lake. It was very safe which was fantastic as we didnt see the need to unload our hitch and cargo box which made it much faster to carry on with our journey the next day. The hosts are fantastic and communicative; I would stay here again!

Cozy Log Cabin

This was a lovely, cozy log cabin near the water in Olympia. There were charming touches throughout the cabin that helped make the stay memorable. From a tiny carved wooden gnome face staring out from the stairs near the kitchen - to yummy fresh muffins in the fridge - our short stay was enjoyable.

The most amazing little cabin next to the Sound. Continental breakfast for two with the most amazing conscientious touches throughout. Will hopefully stay here again in the future!
