We had a wonderful time staying in cabin 1. Great little spot that was comfortable and quiet. The staff at the restaurant were some of THE best people we’ve ever met. Just a great group of people who made us feel very welcomed and comfortable. We look forward to staying here again.

Comfy little cabin by the lake

The cabin was really comfortably setup. I was there for the races at The Ridge that weekend, so didn't spend a lot of time onsite, just enjoyed a comfortable bed and hot shower.

Lakeside Fun!!

It was a great weekend away with friends and family. We collectively as a group rented out all the cabins for a weekend. It was a lot of fun. The dock was alright needs some updating, but in all a great time. Thank you for the great stay!

Girls trip

I had a girls trip just me and a friend and this cabin is perfect for a simple stay in the middle of nowhere. I love that there’s a restaurant/bar in the parking lot. We went and they were having a karaoke night and it was just so much fun to watch! The place was clean. It’s not a hotel room by any means so just keep in mind you are staying in a cabin. But everything was well stocked. Host also had messaged me back about my parking questions quickly which I appreciated. Also loved that it was self checkin and checkout.

Great little cabin on the lake!

Super sweet location tucked away in the woods, overlooking the beautiful lake. The cabin was cozy, stocked with coffee, hot chocolate and popcorn. The dock on the lake was the perfect spot to sit and sip. Crystal clear water, and refreshing for a dip. My dog loved it. The host was very accommodating, i would highly recommended

Prior to our arrival we were told there was some construction being done near the cabin we rented. It was running behind schedule so the resort moved us to a larger unit at no additional charge. The restaurant and bar were a ton of fun. Apparently Saturday is karaoke night. We had a blast. We highly recommend.

Cute and cozy!

We stayed in Cabin #1 for our anniversary weekend. It was just the right amount of space we needed for me, my husband, and our pup. Super easy walking distance to the lake dock. There wasn’t much area to walk around by the water, but we hung out on the dock and it was just fine! The only other complaint was the bed…it was a bit noisy and bouncy if you move a lot in your sleep. We ended up having a slumber party on the pull out couch the second night, and it was actually very comfy and we got a better nights sleep. We loved the bar and restaurant on the property as well - great food for a great price! Overall, I would recommend this cabin for a cute and quaint weekend getaway 😊

Perfect for what we needed!

I was getting married in Shelton on 9/17 and wanted somewhere that I could stay with my 2 daughters away from the groom the night before the wedding, also somewhere that would serve a purpose for the bridal party and me to get ready, and then be able to come back and stay after the wedding. This cute little cabin was perfect!! The location is beautiful, the cabin was super cute, and it was awesome that there is a restaurant right on location too! We will definitely be back in the future for a little family getaway.

Tonya (owner) is a sweet gal who is very accommodating. The locals are down to earth and friendly. It's very quiet and a cute, updated cabin. Would recommend it to anyone who wants a quick get away.

Cozy cabin!

We had a great time staying at Cabin 1. Very clean, cozy (even the hideaway bed), lovely basket full of coffees, teas, hot chocolate, popcorn, etc., great selection of utensils/kitchen ware and had a great time with kayak rentals! My only complaint was I wish there were more hooks in the bathroom or somewhere for hanging wet swimsuits and towels. Will definitely recommend and be back!

Lovely Glamping Getaway

We had planned to go camping and decided that we wanted a bed and a shower. This spot fit the bill - a cabin next to a lake so we could paddle board and fish. And pet friendly! Perfect. The pictures don't show the whole experience. These cabins are basically in the parking lot of a popular local restaurant, with several very close homes and when we arrived on Sunday it was packed. People everywhere. We braced ourselves for a less-than-ideal glamping experience, expecting loud days and nights with lots of people coming and going. However, we were pleasantly surprised to find out that the restaurant is closed Monday and Tuesday which gave us the place almost to ourselves. Everything was quiet and lovely. We sat outside and ate at their picnic tables in peace, put up a hammock, fished each morning, paddle boarded on the almost empty, crystal clear lake, and came in each night to a bed (which was mostly comfortable) and the ability to make some food in the small kitchen (which was better equipped than most VRBO homes). An unexpected paradise. The one fly in the ointment was a problem with their water which kept going off in the evening, making it hard to shower and do dishes. They fixed the problem on the last day and took care of us which makes this a 5-star experience, despite the issues. The customer service was top notch and we will keep this on our list of places to return to. Recommended.

A Small Spot For A Quick Getaway

A family of four (and a dog) in a cabin built for two is going to be, by definition, a bit close. That said, this little spot was perfect for our purposes -- a quick, end-of-summer escape. Cozy and clean, with easy access to a wonderful, not over-developed Mason County lake which is still relatively free of too many lawns and cut trees and the resulting problems this can cause for waterfronts (no algae, milfoil, etc.). Quiet while we were there, it had an offseason feel, but that might be because the restaurant was closed during the early part of the week. It was very near to a arterial road, but the traffic was light.
