Holiday rentals with a kayak in Rocky Mountains

Fantastic stay! Omar was friendly, responsive, and thoughtful. The home was comfortable, clean, spacious, and the waterfront location is superb. A perfect getaway. Would love to come back.

I can not say enough about this place it was exactly what our family was looking for. If you are looking to get out of the city and relax then this is the place for you. We spent every evening in the hot tub with the most beautiful views. Sitting on the porch one morning a fox came down the driveway, a moose came right to the water 15 ft in front of me, an elk was walking through the trees to the right of me and a momma duck had her babies out on the lake in front of me all within an hour. God really showed off that day. The home was so spacious there was plenty of room for all 6 of us. It was very clean and well cared for. There are plenty of hiking trails within a few miles if that’s your thing. We also spent a day in the hot tub, played board games and cooked on the grill, so if you don’t want to go anywhere there is plenty to do right at the cabin! 10 out of 10 would recommend Chris and Catherine’s place!

This delightful cabin has all the comforts of home and more. I had the most relaxing time. It looks just like in the photos with the amazing view of the lake from the whole cabin, including the sauna. Thank you, Kelly, for sharing your little piece of paradise!

One of the top Airbnbs that I have stayed at. The host was great and gave us some good ideas of things to do. Staying here you are secluded which is great. We saw deer, turkey, quail, a bobcat, and more. only thing we missed was a snake! Me and my boys spent most of our time fishing. Over 3 days we caught over 100 fish. Large bluegill, bass, and crappie. Worms worked really well on a bobber and crank baits killed the bass and crappie. We took an awesome hike to a private swimming area and the family had a blast. We tried booking this place last year and it was booked out, I know why. We are already planning our trip to come back next year.

We loved the space. Great views. Windows for days. We even measured some spaces in the house to incorporate into our home build. It’s not a large home but it feels so spacious with all the natural light. Truly feels like home. It’s not a cheap rental but the value is all there. We would love to return sometime! Zero complaints and I’d highly recommend the stay for anyone looking to visit the area.

A beautiful retreat that makes you feel like you’re in your own world. Enjoy breathtaking views of the lake right from the couch or deck. We had quiet morning out on the deck with ducks and bald eagles fishing right in front of us. Hard to beat this place.

Absolutely stunning home! Fantastic views and so much to do. We can’t wait to go back!

The Lookout was perfect for our weekend getaway. Very private location with great views of the surrounding hills and mountains. No other homes in view. Near outdoor recreation, about a 15 minute drive to restaurants and grocery store. You'd never know the home is off-grid -- it had all the normal appliances and functionality.

We had a fantastic stay—everything was peaceful and relaxing. The beach access was excellent, and we absolutely loved spending time around the fire pit in the evenings. The hosts were attentive and easy to reach, making everything effortless. The shower was a bit smaller than expected, but aside from that, everything was great. We also had the joy of seeing seals, lots of starfish, deer, and more—such wonderful wildlife moments! Thanks so much for a lovely stay. We’d definitely come back!

Beautiful views nice and quiet. Great for a relaxing getaway. Shelley was quick to respond to all my questions. Driveway is tight and a little hard to find but worth it. Very nice house and great view of Mt Rainier from the hot tub!!

The cottage had a beautiful view of the Bay. You could walk to the beach in about 10 minutes but you did need to cross the highway. The nearby beach was beautiful. The place was clean and very well supplied. It was quiet and peaceful. The neighborhood was a bit rough and ready but it wasn't a problem.

We found just what we were looking for; a peaceful and private cabin near the Russian River and with a lot of style and soul to boot. The house was very clean, comfortable and provided some sweet outdoor spaces for dining and lounging. With the heavy vegetation growing below, we didn't have a view of the river, but it was just a quick stroll away. The only downside I can think of is traffic noise along a semi-busy road that's nearby. But it wasn't a buzzkill and we enjoyed the experience thoroughly. We hope to return soon.

I visited the cottage to escape the city for a few days. This place is absolutely adorable— completely drenched in natural sunlight. It manages to maintain its historical charm while also feeling modern. I did some remote work during the visit & the WiFi worked perfectly— I could even get signal sitting outside. It was a little too chilly to take advantage of the water, but even just sitting outside on the floating dock or the balcony provided a lot of peace. This place is the perfect mixture of providing a secluded feel while still being just a short drive to grocery/ restaurants. I truly loved my stay here & am already trying to figure out when I might be back!

This place was very nice! Such a beautiful and relaxing view of the water! The area is quiet and peaceful, and we really enjoyed the outdoor spaces, deck, firepit, hot tub, and the kayaks. We saw lots of cool jellyfish and crabs while kayaking out back. Would definitely stay here again. It was also very clean which we appreciated.

Private location near beautiful lake and good kitchen including barbecue. No wifi so you really get away from your daily hassles. André and Merle

I wish we had had more time in Lake Tapps and our stay there. You couldn’t ask for a better lakeside view and sunsets! The space was a good size for two adults and was in great condition. Very clean. Complimentary snacks and available use of kayaks, SUPs, fire pit, etc. were a nice touch, even if we didn’t get the chance to utilize all of them! Suzy was super nice and super responsive. If we find ourselves in or around Seattle again, I hope we can go back!

Stayed here for two nights. Jake and Kim were gracious with an early check in request. Bathroom is beautiful. Furniture in family room is comfortable as is the bed on the main floor. They are great with communication. River is beautiful. The area is peaceful. There isn't much in the way of cell service, so the wifi is great. Would definitely recommend to others for a quiet getaway. Gas station/market not too far for the quick few things you forgot.

I set out to find a new place I’ve never been and be at peace and somewhat anonymous. This cabin checks all of these boxes. The cabin was cozy and well suited to have a cocktail on the porch at night, close up quick to go to town, or to cook your own food. I was surrounded by natures serenity in comfort and zero outside noise. The hosts were more than responsive and helpful. They made the visit easy and took a lot of pride in their little place. It was their home at one point while building what they call the main house. I would recommend this cabin and stay 100 out of 10. Lots of great stories in their travel journal for the house. Thanks guys. I will be back at some point to catch some of those great views and fresh air!!!

We had an amazing 3 nights at Rudy’s cabin. The cabin is charming, clean, and has everything you might need. The cabin, lake, and surrounding area makes it easy to unplug, slow down, and become inspired. Trip highlights: Visits with Zenji the dog, watching hummingbirds at the feeder, listening to the birds, as well as the occasional loon and owl, an evening thunderstorm, cozy fires in the cabin, swimming and canoeing off the shared dock, nearby waterfalls, gondola/hiking at Sun Peaks, a drive to the spectacular Helmcken Falls near Clearwater. Tips: Bring your favourite board game, a book, something to draw/paint with as this place will inspire you to do the things you liked doing before having a smart phone! We were nervous about the toilet but it was totally fine. Take a screen shot of Dave’s directions to the cabin as there is no service for the last bit of the drive. A few mosquitos so bug spray is good to have. Stay at least three nights if you can.

The Main cabin is very rustic and homie. The master bed was comfortable and so were the couches and pull out bed. Other folks in my party stayed in the bungalow. It’s summer so they were very warm in the afternoon so we had the A/C and fans blowing most of the time. But it cooled down very fast in the evening. Plenty of grills and fridge space for us for the weekend. Hot tub ran great! And bathroom was a nice. It’s septic system but water was clean and ran well. Thank you Brian for being responsive and hosting us. We enjoyed the cabin and Dock!

Very homey and comfy. Enjoyed the outdoor space and watched the deer.

The cabin in the woods was perfect in every way! So peaceful and quiet. Sandy and Lynne were the perfect hosts. The cabin was beautiful and immaculate. The snacks and breakfast were especially thoughtful. Close enough to Grass Valley and Nevada City we could be there in minutes yet far enough to be away from town. We will definitely be back and recommend to anyone and everyone!

They provided all the necessary support in a very professional manner. The scenery by the lake near the cabin is absolutely beautiful. Whether you’re inside the house, out in the yard, or by the lake, you can easily find plenty of things to do and enjoy. It’s a pity I could only stay for one night this time. I’d love to come back and stay longer if I have the chance in the future.

We had such a great stay! The host was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made everything feel even more comfortable. The cabin was exactly as pictured super clean, cozy, and well-kept. It’s such a beautiful place to stay, with peaceful trails right behind the cabin and so much to do in the area. We’d definitely come back again!
