Anniversary Trip
This was an amazingly perfect place to stay! We loved the walk down to the beach, which was covered in sand dollars and purple shells. The bed was comfortable, and everything we needed was easy to find. It was a very well-thought out little cottage, and will will happily stay here again in the future.

Great little gem
Had a wonderful few days. Accommodations were perfect for the two of us. I showed off some serious toaster oven skills and the two burner stovetop was just right! Sweet bonus of eggs and muffins was just perfect! So much to explore. Path to the beach is steep but just take your time and grab one of the walking poles and you will be fine. Would recommend and already have! Thank you!

Peaceful, cozy and relaxing
Perfect little cabin for two with an amazing view of the water out the front window. I slept so well on the comfy queen bed. Very homey and comfortable with personal, hospitable touches from the owners who clearly love and care for this property. The hike down to the beach was steep but short and easy to navigate and we were able to walk over to the state park with it's wonderful trails both from the beach and from the street. Amazing how the tiny kitchen had everything we needed, and Dick even brought us some ketchup when we forgot condiments for our hotdogs!

A week in the Country
We live just outside Washington DC and once a year I find a place that is either in the country or country like. The location could not have been better. Quiet, a view (this year smoke from the fires) so views not so much. Easy to get to I-5 which made traveling to Mt St Helen’s and area attractions very easy. The cottage was comfy, bed excellent, and the yard area a visual delight. Someone has an artists eye with the plantings. Thank you to the Yunkers for sharing your cottage.
