We invite you to live like royalty at the Castle at Summit Lake! The Castle at Summit Lake is a sprawling 7,500sf, 3-story, lake-front Castle on 1+ acre that can sleep up to 24 guests and features an outdoor hot tub, media/entertainment room, billiards room, poker turret, arcade room, outdoor fireplace, freshwater dock, multiple patios and decks, lake toys and much more. The Castle is equipped with high speed internet, air conditioning and SmartTVs (with streaming options).
The Castle at Summit Lake is located >5 minutes off WA-8/Hwy 101 in West Olympia. The Castle is ~20 minutes to downtown Olympia, ~1 hour to the Ocean cities (Ocean Shores and Westport), ~1 hour to SeaTac airport and ~1 hour to the Olympic National Forest. The nearest city with basic amenities (fuel, dining, grocery, etc) is McCleary which is ~10 minutes away. In the other direction (~15 minutes away), Capital Mall area features all your "big box" stores, dining and services.
The private 1+ acre lake-front estate is located on the North side of Summit Lake. Summit Lake is relatively deep freshwater lake that is well-known for boating, fishing and swimming. We have a large dock that guests are welcome to utilize, and we supply a limited amount of life-jackets, an extra-large paddle board, a pedal boat and a few other lake toys. We provide lakeside seating for 20+ guests and our shoreline has a bit of a sandy beach and large fire pit to gather around. Just off the shore is a 9-person hot tub carefully placed for the best lakeside views. Beyond the well-manicured lawn is a semi-covered patio area with outdoor dining for ~16 and is equipped with a large propane BBQ. Steps away are double doors that lead you back inside the Castle and to a big bar area with seating for ~14 and boasts an additional fridge, sink, dishwasher and glasswares.
Our Castle offers the perfect blend of gathering places and private spaces for groups! There is an additional cabin on the property (available at an additional cost) that can accommodate another 6 guests.
