What a beautiful, cozy cabin! Although not too far from civilization, it feels very secluded and private, and just down the road from a state park. The cabin itself was impeccably maintained and just a beautiful spot with little touches like a fire pit, string lights, and hammock. Highly recommend!

This cabin is PERFECTION! There are not enough adjectives to explain how wonderful our stay was. Sitting on the deck was so peaceful and calm. This is the perfect place to take a deep breath and let all your stress melt away. The owners have thought of everything from all of the amenities to helpful information throughout the cabin.The close proximity to two state parks was also a bonus. We will definitely be back, often!

Easy process to check in. The cabin was probably even better than advertised. It had everything we needed for our weekend stay and longer. Really close to 2 state parks. We got to see a deer in the yard our first morning and what looked like a big sea otter running though at night. Highly recommend!!!!

À propos de l’hôte
Hôte : Michelle Elsom
Welcome everyone! We hope to see you soon. I grew up in Spokane and have been in Kitsap county for nearly 30 years. We recently sold our sailboat (25 years of sailing the Salish Sea) and fulfilled another dream of traveling and camping in our Pleasure Way Sprinter Van. Our own travel experiences (both near and far) has given us a passion for providing great hospitality. Our tiny home, the Magic Lantern is our expression. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement
The Magic Lantern is a piece of land you never want to leave. So comfortable, so open feeling and a really well made tiny home on a small knoll. It comes alive at night with the glow of the lighting and all the outdoor decorative lights. Everyone loves it. The property is amazing and filled with very large cedars and Douglas firs. The trees are fantastic and home to deer that we often see. 2 acres of private property, includes a RV site at the bottom of the hill. We are just a couple of blocks from Penrose Point State Park. This gorgeous park provides beach access and easy trails with spectacular views. Don’t miss a visit here.
Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique
Our guests describe their visit with words like- peaceful, private, beautiful, soothing and relaxing. Everyone mentions the very large cedars. Most people see deer, numerous birds, otters, bats. Remember we are wooded and bears, coyote, cougars and bobcats also call this area home. Conveniently located by Penrose State Park for hiking and beach access (clamming when in season!). Bay Lake has natural and stocked fish. Trails in many areas and several places for your kayak launch. Only an hour from Hood Canal and the start of all the Olympics have to offer in the area.
