About this property

Vintage Cabin on Lake Nahwatzel! Private dock and gorgeous views!

This 2 bedroom one bath cabin is located on the beautiful Lake Nahwatzel in Mason County. Lake Nahwatzel is one of the warmest lakes in western Washington due to the fact that it is partially fed by hot springs, and it is also opened to fishing year-round. This lake is considered to be one of the best bass-fishing lakes in western Washington during the summer months and is also stocked twice a year with rainbow trout. You can ski, jet ski, swim, boat and fish on this lake! This cabin is the perfect place to get away from the cares of the world, relax on the expansive deck, or sit on the private dock with your feet in the warm water. The vintage feel and decor of "Grampy's Cabin" is welcoming, and takes you back to the days of old, less worry and more fishing! Public boat launch is just past the cabin on the right - convenient for your water toys. There is one bedroom on the main level, and the loft above has 2 additional beds. The cabin is stocked with the necessities you will need, and a comfortable place to settle in. Fresh water is pumped into the home from the bottom of the lake for use in the sinks and bathroom, however it is not certified for drinking. Guests are asked to please bring their own drinking water. The home has wifi and a smart TV for streaming your favorite shows on your own account - and is ready for your visit! Come and experience The Cabin on Lake Nahwatzel!

The location on the lake and the view from the cabin are both exceptional. Communication was excellent all through the process including registering, directions, and what to use and how to use the things at the property. Everything was clean and in working order. Had a wonderful time and would return.

This was not simply a rental house, it was home away from home! The property was very clean and welcoming from the moment of entry. We had quite a long road trip before arrival, so it was comforting to receive a warm and pleasant home to unwind. This property was great for our group of 7 and it is actually better in person than captured in the pictures! We are a particularly picky group and this home did not disappoint anyone. It's well equipped with supplies and amenities which were greatly appreciated. The rooms are large and beds super comfy. The proximity to the beach and other attractions of 30A was perfect. Our favorite amenity was the nice golf cart, so convenient for quick trips to the beach and nearby restaurants. We truly enjoyed our stay here and highly recommend for groups of similar size. Thank you Blue Harmony for a very memorable family vacation!

Perfect Stay

The cabin was exactly as described; cozy, relaxing, clean and perfect for a family get-a-way. The neighbors on each side of the home were very kind and welcoming even though we were just tourists for a week. The lake was great for swimming, paddle boarding, jet skiing and fishing. The communication from the property manager was top notch and overall we couldn't have been happier with the entire experience. We would definitely recommend Grampy's Cabin!

Sweet Little Cabin

We've been staying at this cabin once a year for a number of years now and have gotten to feel at home there. The additional parking spaces are a much appreciated addition. The view and location can't be beat. Great place to watch the stars at night after a day playing in the water. The property manager is local, and responds promptly to any requests. There is a fun little bar/restaurant just down the road within easy walking distance if you dont feel like cooking. If youre looking for a low key, reasonably priced lakefront stay you cant go wrong.

Beautiful Setting

We brought our two grandsons for 4 nights. They had fun swimming and jumping off the dock. We caught enough fish to keep it interesting. The boys each had a full size bed upstairs and we had a room downstairs. We brought our little boat and were able to tie it to the dock for easy access. A great trip for all!!

This place was perfect for my family of 5. We have a great time from the moment we arrived. If there was any question or concern the owner would immediately get back to us. Our stay was amazing. The home was exactly as advertised. We spent time outside on the deck grilling some food and time on the dock catching fish like there was no tomorrow. The kids loved playing in the loft and waking up to the great views. This place has given my family great memories. And we’re so thankful. We already can’t wait to come back! Thank you for the amazing service and letting us enjoy your cabin.

Lake Nahwatzel....Great place, wonderf location!!

To summarize the cabin....perfect! My girlfriend and three kids loved it! The loft with two queens was the perfect spot for the kids and the single bedroom downstairs was perfect doe us adults. The view was spectacular, the water was warm but cold at the same time. Perfect to cool you of in the 90° heat we had but not freezing.....there were plenty of fish if you wanted to go fishing. The sunsets were beautiful.....I will definitely go back!!

Fall birthday with a view

My husband booked this trip for our family and it was probably the best birthday Ever! The view of the lake was amazing, the kids had fun fishing, swimming(even though it was kind of chilly) and we were so relaxed. Our family lives in the area so they were show us around even more! The folks at The Resort were friendly and the food was great! The only thing....is the road can be a bit busy and noisy. If you are pulling out of the driveway be careful, but other than that!? It was Perfect.

Beautiful view

We really enjoyed our stay. Beds were very comfortable. Had everything we needed. There were a few drawbacks- wooden stairs down to the lake are a bit slippery when wet, so be careful. Railing to hold onto at the final descent to the dock would be helpful. Also, parking for a boat trailer is not ideal, although it is doable.
