Gorgeous lake view
We enjoyed our stay so much! Only booked for a couple of nights while we were visiting Quinault rainforest, but could have stayed a week or longer. View was amazing, location was so quiet and peaceful. Right as we were leaving a family of otters showed up right below the house and did some fishing while we watched. Magical! Thanks so much for sharing your house with us!

Perfect place on Lake Quinault!
Wonderful house and very comfortable. We took advantage of the weather and the nice kayaks on the beach and paddled several times. This was a perfect location. We recommend the Salmon House for dinner across the lake.

Perfect rental! Highly recommend!
We have stayed at a lot of vacation rentals over the past 15 years. This may be our favorite of all time! Beautiful, clean, comfortable, well stocked, and a breathtaking location. Our entire family wished we could stay another couple of nights. If we are anywhere near this area again, this is the rental we will book.

Great waterfront property
Several short hike trails close by. Beautiful scenery. Bedrooms were small but beds were comfy. Kitchen had everything we needed. Kayaks were great to have on site. The dock that is in pictures is not there. Bring groceries because there are not a lot of options. Overall a great experience

Beautiful Lake House
We had a nice week stay at this lovely lake house. We bought food for the week and cooked several nice meals in the fantastic kitchen. The owner was friendly and even fixed a broken burner mid-week. The view is unbeatable. There are several nice hikes in the area. Easy access to HOH rainforest and the Pacific coast. Quinault rainforest is very nice. Bring a rain poncho for the occasional shower. Highly recommend this house.

Great location. Sub par amenities. New AC unit leaked all over the dining room
Great location! Beautiful home. but you don’t feel any TLC. Lack of attention to minor details in the way of kitchen gadgets and equipment that were lacking (Limited pots/pans, no tin foil, limited variety of glasses for spirits, liquor.) The problem here is that there isn’t great access to groceries and other needs so it makes it challenging when the house comes up short on the little things you may need. Also there looks to be a new room AC unit in the kitchen/dining area, which is great, but there ended up being a huge leak of liquid from the machine from what looks like a lack of attention to the draining function. I informed the manager or owner and didn’t hear anything back at all. Also, blinds in the living room and master bedroom don’t shut right and are out of order to some extent. These reasons lead me to give it a 3/4 star rating.

What an immaculate, well stocked, comfortable and cozy lake-side home. Everything was as advertised, clean and great directions/instructions. Beautiful scenery and hiking close by; we made 2 trips to the ocean, one for a successful clam digging adventure. Thankful for this beautiful get-away opportunity.

Host profile image
Owner/manager: Brenda Sansom
My family moved to Lake Quinault for the love of the area in1975. I graduated from Lake Quinault High School, married and raised a family of three daughters who all graduated from Lake Quinault High School as well. Our love for this wonderful place generated from generations of both sides of the family who also lived, schooled and raised families here. With our love for nature, the great outdoors and wildlife, Lake Quinault has fulfilled all our activities and tranquility of our relaxation needs. I am fortunate to be able to share this spectacular vacation area of Lake Quinault and Olympic National Park with people from all over the world and provide comfortable clean accommodations to our visitors. My greatest joy is to continue to share this amazing place with my family and my five grandsons. They say that life is a dream at Lake Quinault!

Why they chose this property

We first purchased this home to have a place to access the lake and have a close to home vacation spot for ourselves. We soon realized that we needed to share this amazing spot on Lake Quinault to all who have a desire to visit God's country!
Cottage Peaks is located in the Olympic National Park and a beautiful temperate rainforest with recorded world largest trees, fern beds, dripping moss, world largest variety of mushrooms as well as aboundance of wildlife. For such a beautiful place there are a minimum of accomodations for the amount of visitor in this area. I offer four seperate comfortable , clean homes for guests to stay and have a chance to really enjoy our area. It will be unforgetable!

What makes this property unique

The loop drive around Lake Quinault is spectacular! Drive is very scenic and great for wildlife viewing, Mountain and river viewing. The world's largest spruce is located on the grounds of the rain forest resort. Kalaloch and Ruby Beach, just 30 min. Dr North. You will benefit from a central location on the water and just be 10 minutes hiking trails and 30 minutes from ocean beaches. Also, 1hr and 15 minutes from Forks, WA (twilight location). Also located in route of the Olympic Penninsula loop trip
