Comfortable, clean, well laid out

We loved staying here, and were sad when it was time to go! The short walk to the boat ramp was nice for going down to the lake shore, the little creek was pleasant to listen to, there was good lighting for board games in the evening, a better than average selection of kitchen tools (as rentals go), comfy couches and beds, plenty of parking. It rained on us a lot but we still got in a little exploring- we drove up the Duckabush Road and hiked to Ranger Hole and Murhut Falls (highly recommended!), visited the High Steel Bridge (super impressive), and drove up toward Staircase (still closed for the season) a ways to see the sights. We recommend stopping in at the little National Forest/National Park visitor center in Hoodsport for maps, brochures, advice on activities, and purchasing recreation passes.

My stay in Hoodsport was nothing short of delightful! The space exudes comfort and attention to detail, making it the perfect retreat. From the thoughtfully curated decor to the cozy accommodations, it’s clear that so much care has been poured into ensuring guests feel right at home. Every aspect felt intentional and inviting.The host went above and beyond to make sure my experience was seamless. Their responsiveness and willingness to assist with even the smallest inquiries made me feel truly cared for. It’s rare to find a host so attentive and kind.If you’re looking for a serene getaway where comfort and thoughtful touches take center stage, I wholeheartedly recommend staying here. I can’t wait to return!Beds were so comfortable!

Would Return!

WOW! We loved our short stay at the cabin with lake views. Host let us check in early which was much appreciated. Easy to find and access, although you feel nestled in the lush forest. Plenty of parking for our RV and car + many more if needed. We did think the property was lakefront, however it’s a short walk down the road to the lake entrance ~ no biggie. The shore of the lake was rocky but beautiful and calm with crystal clear waters. The cabin’s kitchen had everything you need to cook and the living/bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed playing pool and scrabble by the downstairs electric fireplace together. The laundry room was an added bonus for us to wash our own clothes amongst our travels too (beautiful separate room w/ detergent, dryer balls and sheets + 2 washers and 2 dryers)! Wed love to return!

Excellent place to spend time with family.

This was a clean, tidy, comfortable place with a pool table, bonfire pit, spacious deck, and super close to the lake and hiking trails. We made coffee and took a nice fresh walk to the lake to drink our coffee every morning. We will definitely be back. There is plenty of room for extended family members as well. Thanks to everyone for a comfortable place to stay.

Very relaxing stay

We really enjoyed the house and property. Had everything we needed. One small issue that was resolved super promptly. Beds were comfy. We took lovely walks to the lake. Played lots of games and enjoyed fires in the fire ring. 3 couples and a child. We all had our own space.

Fabulous Place

If you ever need a relaxing vacation in a beautiful setting and a skip and a jump away from the most pristine lake in the world, come and stay at Kimberly’s Cabin! We had a memorable ten days there and were so comfortable, loved the new furniture, open space, laundry facilities, outdoor deck and bbq. The Mountain Views are stunning and the hikes in the National Park are wonderful ! We highly recommend this Paradise to ever!

Decent Stay at Cushman

Not our first VRBO at Cushman. You certainly get what you pay for here. It IS rustic, so if that is not your vibe, I would look elsewhere. There is a distinct smell of older home, which as long as you don't mind, it is fine. We did not mind. The basement was great for pool, we played MANY games. The pans were super greasy and need to be cleaned or replaced. The location is perfect. As you can walk to the lake, or use the provided pass. (Saves time driving to another lake spot which is great). The size was MUCH bigger than we thought. Due to an early run in with the next door neighbor, who screamed about our dog getting out (we were unpacking and it was chaos), and then again contacted the host because our kids were acting up retelling the story about the crazy neighbor which put a bit of a damper on the weekend. I'm sure this has been a pain for the host before, as these neighbors had no issues screaming at people for dogs, screaming about fines, when multiple dogs in the neighborhood were off the leash. Usually people are kind at Cushman, so next time we may skip staying in this division just because the neighbor went immediately to nuclear. I feel bad that the host got phone calls, but I'm sure it is not the first!

Wonderful place to play, explore and relax into

We loved the house and location. We loved the lake- went kayaking and even took a dip in the bracing water! The house layout was ideal for needs. I love the seclusion yet close to the staircase trails. I just wish that maybe dogs WERENT permitted in the house as one of the grands seemed to be sensitive to it but he really enjoyed being there too. My favorite part was the little stream so tranquil and pretty. It was fun to see so many deer so close up! Thanks for letting us stay. You seemed to think of everything for your guests- Pam

About the host

Hosted by Kimberly Klett

Host profile image
My name is Kimberly. As you can tell from the photo I love dogs, nature and the outdoors.

Why they chose this property

Lake Cushman is a well kept secret. Away from the hustle & bustle of daily life. It offers so many different and diverse activities. From boating to hiking, diving to oyster digging. The picturesque Olympic National Forest as your backdrop. I have been camping in this location since my children were small and decided to invest in a home so I could share the same peaceful beauty, fun experiences and fond memories that I have of this area with other friends, family and guests.

What makes this property unique

You can enjoy boating, fishing, skiing, tubing, kayaking, jet skiing, swimming, sunbathing, golfing and tennis. The Olympics offer over 20 hiking trails from the leisurely to the more strenuous. One of the best hikes is Mt. Elinor once you reach the summit you are enchanted with the view of the cascades and Lake Cushman. The town of Hoodsport offers scuba diving, calming, oyster digging, crabbing, several restaurants, shopping and a winery. If you still have any get up and go after a day of sun & fun the Lucky Dog Casino offers a little nightlife.
