Repeat visitors to the Black Lake Chalet, another excellent experience! The house is an amazing space for a lakeside getaway with fantastic views and fun family amenities. Check-in was very easy with clear directions and easy access, along with GREAT communication from our hosts! I also really appreciated the local recommendations, turned a relatively short stay into an opportunity to explore Olympia. Would absolutely stay again!

Black Lake Chalet was the perfect location for our family of six. The entire property was very clean, the beds were comfortable and spacious, and the the view of the lake was a great way to start and end your day (and we saw the local eagle multiple times!). If you’re looking for a quite, comfortable and completely furnished home while in Olympia, I highly recommend Black Lake Chalet.

Black Lake Chalet is a wonderful Washington getaway. The home was exceptionally clean, beautifully decorated, and welcoming from the moment we arrived.The open-concept layout was perfect for our friends’ reunion, offering plenty of space to gather, relax, and enjoy time together. We especially loved the game room, large dining table, and comfortable beds. Waking up to peaceful lake views each morning was a highlight.We also enjoyed taking the kayaks out on the lake and soaking in the scenery. Overall, we had an amazing stay and would highly recommend Black Lake Chalet to anyone looking for a comfortable, relaxing, and memorable getaway.

What a perfect place for our family to come together for Christmas. The house was beautiful, neat as a pin, and tastefully decorated. The extra touches, like fresh flowers, cookies and a decorated tree, made this feel very welcoming and special. Cory and Andi were as friendly as their home inviting.We will be back!

Girls trip

We had a great time staying at this beautiful lake front property. The house is well maintained, clean, very adorable décor & we loved the kitchen island where we gathered to catch up and enjoy food and beverages! The game room was a fun perk too! The owner was quick to respond and informative during the check in process.

Family Stay at Black Lake Chalet

Property is awesome. Very roomy inside and plenty of deck space upstairs and downstairs. The game room was a bonus. The kitchen had many amenities and we used it daily along with the gas BBQ for all our meals. The lake view is fantastic with beautiful sunsets. Cory and Addie were wonderful hosts.
