Holiday houses in Tumwater

This cottage is a hidden gem on Vashon Island. Elizabeth is an attentive host and made my stay memorable. It was wonderful surprise to have the kitchen stocked with organic eggs, butter, coffee creamer, jams, yogurt, fresh fruit, a variety of coffees and teas. Making daily breakfast was a breeze and yummy. The cottage has peek a boo view of Mount Rainier and Cascade mountains. You may be lucky in having a deer or two stop by or see an eagle or pelican fly by. The location is minutes from the quaint downtown area and centrally located to other parts of the island. Bedrooms are cozy. Bathroom is generously stocked with towels and a variety of shampoos. There was also body lotion since I forgot to bring mine! Living room has comfy chairs and sturdy table to eat at or use as a work surface. It came in handy for a project I was working on. There’s even a grand piano. I highly recommend staying here. I’m already planning my next trip and staying here! Thank you Elizabeth!

Rebecca was the most attentive host! Her and her husband were very responsive and met us during check in to help us settle in. The space was absolutely lovely and the surrounding area was so charming. Driving distance from Olympic National Park, and straight shot to the airport. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to be in a cozy, warm space surrounded by trees and the lake.

We loved our weekend stay here. Our teens loved hanging out up in the loft and it was the perfect space for them. The kitchen had everything we needed and it was great for six people. The beach area was lots of fun to explore as well.

Wonderful home to stay in. Accommodating for everyone. Supplied with everything that you could think of! Easy check -in / check out. Many Thanks!

My sister and I had a very relaxing stay. The house was cozy and very clean with fabulous views. The lilac was in bloom so everything smelled wonderful, too. The handbook is a bit vague in places (no list of recyclable items and no instructions for the for the hot tub) but the hosts were very responsive to questions. A very peaceful escape.

We really enjoyed Rebecca’s place. The view is incredible and the home is very clean and cozy. We didn’t spend a lot of time at the house but the beds were very comfortable and linens were very clean. We had everything we needed for the one meal we did cook at the house. We would stay here again!

Such a charming home! We loved it! Traveled with three small kids who loved kayaking, fishing, throwing rocks in the water, running down the big hill to the water, the books in the kids reading nook and exploring the local parks/beaches. It’s very quiet, no road noise. Amazing view of mt. Rainer on a clear day and expansive views from almost all rooms. It’s an old house from the 1930s with a lot of the original old house charm but modern amenities have been updated to make it comfortable. Cathy was very kind and responsive. Thank you!

Stayed at this house with a few friends for the weekend and had such a lovely time. Serene views of the passage from a heated deck and hot tub, and spacious living quarters for everyone to have separate sleeping quarters.

We had an absolutely amazing stay at Anchor Down Inn. The home exceeded expectations, such beautiful views and a comfy, clean and spacious home. The balloons, cake, and flowers for a birthday were such a thoughtful and sweet gesture. We were greeted with a friendly note, wine, and snacks. The hot tub was wonderful and the surprise visit of Seals our first morning was incredible. Rachel was very responsive and helpful if I had any questions, and even let us check in early the day of our arrival. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a private getaway. We will definitely be back!
