Place was beautiful and close to hiking trails. The house was super clean and the lavender field was gorgeous. Checking in and out was super easy as well. The house also offers fresh herbs for cooking in the greenhouse. The hot tub was also extremely nice. We will be coming back in the future and I highly recommend this place.

Amazing stay!!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed—especially for staying with kids. From toys and games to kid-friendly spaces, it made our trip so much easier. The hot tub was a fantastic bonus, and the garden was beautiful and peaceful. The location was great, just a short drive to the Olympic Game Farm, which was a highlight of our trip.Our host, Lisa, was wonderful—very friendly and responsive whenever we had a question. We truly felt at home and would absolutely stay here again!

Great place to stay, always come back to this place whenever my husband do his locum at the cancer center. Very convenient to work, place is very clean and the host provides everything we need during the stay. We’ve stayed probably three or four times and never got disappointed.

Beautiful bungalow in Sequim

I stayed here with my teenage daughter and one of her friends. We loved making root beer floats, visiting the chickens, and the over all comfort of the house. It was a great base to explore the town, Dungeness Spit, and Hurricane Ridge.

Nice place to stay

The property was very nice. Great views of the mountains, and we saw several bald eagles fly right over the property. Near everything, but far enough out side of town to feel remote. Hosts were very accommodating. We will be back next time we visit the area.

Beautiful, clean, and spacious!

This place is definitely one of the best VRBO's we have ever stayed at! 3 bedrooms, nice size kitchen and family room, and plenty of parking. We enjoyed the hot tub every day after hiking. It is quite a drive to most of the Olympic National Park sites but the place itself was wonderful!

Nice location, very clean, well stocked

We had a great stay at Lisa and Robert’s cottage. Very well stocked, clean and easy to communicate with them. I was very touched to receive flowers, balloons and wine as a birthday welcome! Daughter loved the upstairs hang out area, hot tub was wonderful after hikes. (The waiver that’s required to sign is 4 pages which threw us a bit.) We would stay again if in the area or recommend to others, for sure.

Travelling with a group of five, your place truely felt like home away from our home in Germany. Fresh eggs and coffee essential for a good start into our adventures and complimentary wine bottles to round off the day. Everything was as advertised and perfect for us. A perfect location to visit Olympic National Park and the penninsula. Lisa and Robert are perfect hosts. We will come back whenever in the area.
