Our family just loved this cottage. It's the perfect getaway and we felt it offered more than most rentals.The provided SUPs and kayaks are a definite plus. Our boys just loved jumping off the dock. The boathouse is very convenient with young kids to get changed and manage wet towels. The house itself has some nice luxurious equipment like two bbqs, gas fireplaces, four TVs, SONOS sound system, washer dryer, comfy mattresses and lots of blankets and pillows. The kitchen has all the cookware, big luxurious appliances and many of the little appliances you don't usually get in a rental. We liked the disposition of the rooms ; kids upstairs and the master bedroom on the main floor for more privacy. The kids' weren't too far though, we could still hear them if they called us. Finally the solarium/deck area is huge and even has another dining table, couches and a fireplace. It has electronic rollup screens and huge windows that easily fold away so you can basically set it up for any temperature. As for the location, it's hard to beat. Right on a lake yet close enough to Seattle for a day trip to the Aquarium or the space needle. We definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a rental on the lake.
