This home was wonderful, had everything you needed and the view was AMAZING!! I would recommend this home over and over and we hope to be able to come back and stay again because we will surely miss this place!
Amazing location, house provided everything you could possibly need and so comfortable. Friendly community and awesome neighbors. Can’t wait for next summer’s stay!
Had a perfect 4 night stay at Lake Sutherland! Beautiful property, clean, great location and many amenities! Perfect for two couples. We could easily head toward Forks or Port Angeles and Hurricane Ridge. Safe, gated community and great communication. Smooth process from start to finish! We truly enjoyed the beauty of the lake and the well equipped home base! Thanks for a great stay!
This is a fabulous place to stay! The home is beautiful and comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked and the view of the water is breath-taking. We had a great time exploring the area and just sitting on the deck, watching the otters and ducks. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place!
Thank you for the wonderful stay and for being such friendly, flexible and responsive hosts. We had an amazing time. The house is beautiful and in the most incredible location. We appreciated being on such a beautiful lake and so convenient for everything we wanted to do in Olympic NP. Hope to stay again some time. Thanks for having us!

This was a great place for our family; especially, the outside area. Everything was great and as advertised. The only issue as I had read in previous comments was getting someone to answer the phone for arrival but we were able to get in fine. Great place!
Amazing place on the OP! Perfect location for touring the Park, and avoiding the bustle of Lake Crescent. 3 night stay but would have added more if we had known. Well quipped for cooking meals and then enjoying a lakeside fire with friends. Very secure and quiet in the evenings, and in beautiful surroundings. Recommend!
We loved our stay on Lake Sutherland. While the weather wasn’t always perfect, we were still able to enjoy the beautiful lake views and venture out on some nearby hikes! This cabin has everything you need, was clean, and clearly well maintained. We hope to come back again next year!
The home, views, beds, amenities and everything provided felt just like home. The house is fully stocked with everything you could need and more. Beds were comfy and the views unbeatable. We had an amazing relaxing weekend and we’re impressed by everything with the hosts and home.
We would 100% rent and stay again and greatly appreciated the hospitality!
This house is very nice, very clean, and very well equipped. It has a wonderful covered porch looking out over Lake Sutherland, and easy access to the water. There are also kayaks and paddles, making an excursion onto the lake very doable (and I highly recommend it). The location is also just a short drive to the Spruce RR trail, and the Crescent Lake trails and lodge. Really hard to beat!
The pictures and description are 100% accurate! We stayed at Ron & Andrea's home on Lake Sutherland for 3 nights we did not want to leave for the 2nd half of our trip! While we were there we were able to see the aurora borealis! I have pictures I'd love to share with the owners if that's possible. The beautiful colors above their home were spectacular!
From start to finish this was a top-notch vacationing experience! The pictures are just like what you'll get when you visit this property. The house is beautifully maintained, right on the sunny side of the lake, fully stocked with everything you'll need for a pleasant stay, and the fish were biting right off the dock for the grandkids to enjoy. It was a vacation that we will cherish for years to come and we'll certainly be back! Working with the owners was super easy and professional, as well. 10 out of 10 recommend!
The pictures do not do this place justice at all.! I have stayed in many Vrbos, and this place was by far the best. The home has everything you would need for a comfortable stay with views that will blow your mind! Sitting in a hot tube watching snow-capped mountains is like a dream. We will absolutely be back :)

Very nice home and amenities. Kayaks were a plus. Water view couldn"t be beat.
Needs wifi service. 😊
We had the best time at Ron and Andrea's home. The location was wonderful. It is so near Port Angeles and also so near Lake Crescent, both places were just a near by drive. The house itself was nice, clean, and comfortable. It has everything you need from cooking utensils to good linen to lots of towels. The house being on the lake front was so beautiful, it made our stay very relaxing. Highly recommend this VRBO for folks who want to be central while visiting the Olympic National Park.

About the host
Hosted by Ron & Andrea Gilles
The Lake house has been in our family since 2003 allowing both of our children to enjoy the summers on the lake. It's been a favorite getaway for my wife and I on the weekends during the winter months to enjoy the peacefulness of the lake. Also a favorite place for our family to enjoy the Holidays - Thanksgiving & Christmas - the more snow the better! One Christmas our son Brendon snowboarded off the roof of the garage, we had so much snow! Our main home is in Sequim, WA just 45 minutes away so it is a quick getaway. I personally enjoy the Hot Tub at night under the amazing stars that out on a clear night or in the morning with a cup of coffee at while gazing at snow line on Mt. Storm King on the South side of the lake. Lake Sutherland from our deck has been described by a friend as 'just like being on Lake Como in Italy'! The Lake house is on the Sunny Side of the Lake, so it's very enjoyable year round.
Why they chose this property
Family memories and my Father-in-law wanted his grand kids to expierence growing up on a lake. Because he grew up on Lake Washington in Seattle. Personal Birthday parties with live bands down at the Maple Grove community docks.
What makes this property unique
Swimming at midnight under the stars, waterskiing, fishing, powerboating and wine & cheese boat cruising, hiking on the Spruce Railroad Trail at Lake Crescent or Marymere Falls. Enjoying a faboulous hamburger at the Lake Crescent Lodge.
