Summary: There were 4 of us that stayed at this home, and it was perfect. We came together for a mom friends get together weekend (one friend flying in from Virginia) and it was everything we were looking for. Relaxing location, plenty of space, gorgeous views, easy activities...it had it all! I really hope we make a reason to book this place another time!

Summary: We had an amazing stay at the Rookery! Even though the weather wasn’t great, everything else was. We had lake access so that we could fish and go paddle boarding easily. There were bugs, but it wasn’t overwhelming, you could barely notice them, just make sure you keep the screen closed. Overall we had an amazing experience and would definitely stay again!

Summary: Pictures were accurate as this home was GREAT! So many things for our family to do and not far from Mt. Rainier and Mt. St. Helens, which were both places we explored while staying here. Loved playing corn hole, kayaking, paddle boarding, ping pong and especially spending time on the beautiful deck and enjoying the hot tub. Kitchen well appointed and all of the linens throughout were nice too. Highly recommend!!!
