About this cottage rental

Beautifully designed 1940's cottage in the woods nestled by Indian Creek invites you to sit back, relax and unwind among the tall evergreens and lush vegetation. Plenty of room for the whole family or couple's travelling together. The three-bedroom cottage is complete with a kitchen, gas grill, free Wi-Fi, Smart TVs, W/D, outdoor fire pit and beautiful shared private trails that lead down to Indian Creek. Only 12 minutes from Port Angeles's downtown shopping, restaurants and coffee houses. Take easy day trips and hiking adventures into the Olympic National Park. Kayaking, boating and swimming at Lake Crescent are just 10 minutes west of the cabin.

Inside the cottage:
The downstairs living space offers two informal seating areas with cozy furnishings. One with a Smart TV, a "real flame" electric fireplace, a couch with chaise (turns into a sofa bed for extra sleeping arrangements) and a lovely selection of books. There is also a small writing desk in the corner for those that need to work during their stay or just check an email or two. The other seating area is a lovely conversation spot or space to curl up and read by the gas stove, located just off the kitchen and dining areas. The dining table sits between the two living areas and is perfect for gathering for dinner or for playing a lively card game.
In the kitchen, you will find all you need for whipping up meals including a stove, microwave, fridge/freezer and plenty of dishes/pots and pans. There is one bedroom on the main floor that has a queen bed and TV. Both bathrooms are also on the main floor. The back bath has a walk-in shower and washer/dryer, while the hall bath is split between a shower room and 1/2 bath.
The upstairs second and third bedrooms are accessed by a steep and narrow staircase. The second bedroom has a full-size bed and TV and the third bedroom has plenty of room for the kids to stretch out, with 3 full size beds and TV. Outside, everyone can have fun exploring the shared outdoor areas that include private trails down to and alongside the creek, the community gazebo and the community shared play set located in the front yard of the main house. These outdoor areas are shared with guests who may be occupying the two other vacation rentals on the property.

Getting Around:
This property is located set back off U.S. Highway 101 just 9 miles west of Port Angeles for restaurants, coffee houses, pubs, and shopping. The closest entrance to the Olympic National Park is at Lake Crescent, just 10 minutes west of this property, where you will find kayaking on the Lake and hiking opportunities on the Spruce Railroad trail and Marymere Falls, as well as a wonderful restaurant at the historic Lake Crescent Lodge. Additional day trips to other Olympic National Park destinations are an easy drive from the home. Both Hurricane Ridge and Sol Duc Hot Springs/Falls are a 45 minute drive from the home, the Hoh Rain Forest is 1.75 hours away and the Pacific coastal beaches are just over an hour drive to the west. The town of Sequim, with more restaurants, shopping, coffee houses and Lavender Farms is just a 35 minute drive to the east.

Additional things to note:
This property has three vacation rental units on it. The driveway leading to all three units is circular, with two designated parking spots for the Indian Creek Cottage in front of the cottage. The cottage is indicated by a green sign with the name "Indian Creek" to the right of the front door. All outdoor spaces including yards, private trails to the creek, play structure, gazebo and seating areas are shared spaces with other guests who may be staying.

Loved the cabin…roomy, had everything we needed, and a beautiful outside area. Easy to get to the places we wanted to see. Easy check in and check out.

Our family enjoyed our stay of 4 nights. My somewhat picky son-in-law declared the house felt more like a home instead of “a rental”, like the last Vrbo we stayed in. High praise from him and true. The two things we found somewhat difficult to deal with were the hwy noise and the lack of bathtub, which was listed as a shower/tub combo in the listing. Two squirmy “littles” and 1 old granny would have appreciated a long warm soak at the end of a rainy day. All that said, the majestic wooded surroundings and racing creek made it all worth while.

Location halfway between Port Angeles and the park. Super easy to enjoy a day in the park and eat in Port Angles that night. Clean, comfortably fit 6.

House was a great location for visiting Olympic National Park. Lots of driving still required to go to some "hot" spots - Hoh Rain Forest, Hurricane ridge, it was a good central location for our visit. House is charming with comfortable beds, although ceilings low in upper bedrooms. We had everything we needed and property is beautiful right on the river with a nice path, great outdoor space and enough room for 5+ guests. We had 5 guest and the three bedrooms/2 bath was perfect for us. Would recommend and would stay again.

We loved our stay at this quaint, peaceful cottage. It beautifully suited our wide-ranging group: 4 adults, a teenager, a tween, 2 kids, and a baby. Dena generously accommodated our group by providing a highchair and pack-and-play for the baby. The kitchen is small but fully stocked. There are lots of opportunities for relaxing both inside or outside. We particularly enjoyed the creek behind the house. Olympic National Park and other stunning sites are so close they're practically right in the backyard. We only wish we could have stayed longer. I highly recommend the Indian Creek Cottage!

Stayed at this place for a few days while exploring Olympic national Park. The location was great and the house was well equipped for our stay including a very convenient kitchen. The host was right on site while we were there and helped with a few things that we needed. The place was cozy and charming and we felt right at home. The only drawback was it was a little close to the road although you couldn't see the road you could hear the road noise. Other than that it was idyllic.
