This little cottage is adorable and the view is spectacular!! The beds were comfortable and it was very clean. The host was friendly and responded in a timely manner to all of my emails. My sisters and I had a wonderful time together. I highly recommend this property. I would have given it a 5 star all the way around but the WiFi wasn’t working very well so it made it challenging to use our phones or watch tv, other than that, it was amazing!!

Perfect
We loved it here! Stunning location. Private. We loved the access to the water. It was close to nature ( seals, eagles, forests) and the perfect distance from downtown Olympia. The house was comfortable and the hosts made us feel welcome. Extra touches like slippers, blankets, and snacks were awesome!

Cozy Cottage
This cottage was prepared with love! It's clear the owner's take great pride in this space. It has all the farmhouse charm without the farmhouse grit. It made me want to bake a pie, sip a cup of tea, and read Little Women all weekend! It felt so wholesome. We absolutely loved it! There is also access to their private and secluded beach, which was absolutely breathtaking. The view of the bay and the quiet serenity of the woods added to the beauty of this property. Yet downtown Olympia was just 10 minutes away - but you couldn't tell! We highly recommend this home, and we will likely book again.

Great cottage for the family
Such a cozy cottage that worked great for our family of five. It was stocked very well and had some great kids toys that the littles loved! A little walk to the beach where there were tons of great shells to collect was a great bonus, along with a good yard for running around and playing. Lovely, great location, thoughtful amenities. Thanks for a great stay!

Great place to hit refresh on our lives
My family of 4+doggo enjoyed a quick getaway to Oly at Halladay's sweet little remodeled farmhouse. With its peekaboo views of the estuary, beach just a short (steep!) walk away, and comfortable beds, it was just the thing to hit refresh on our lives. My girls had fun picking blackberries, and the hosts were warmly welcoming while giving us plenty of space.

It was a perfect French style cottage by the water with excellent beds, large kitchen island, with a very helpful and friend host. Short drive to downtown Olympia. Awesome band at the Boston Harbor marina fun yard sales near by on the weekend. We all want to come back and bring our families and spouses now. Such an gem in Olympia.
