Vacation rentals with lake access in Cowlitz River

Kristi’s place was a nice place to stay between Mt. Rainer and Mt. St. Helen. Worked perfectly for what we needed. Many cooking pots, pans and dishes since we cooked our dinner meals at the house. Very clean with plenty of towels. Kristi responded to questions quickly. Even brought over a cooler for us to use to pack lunches for day trips.

Our family of 3 stayed at Nicole's place for 4 nights over Memorial Day weekend. We used the location for daytrips East to Mt Rainier and West to the Great Wolf waterpark. The house is easy to find and located in a quiet private neighborhood North of Mayfield Lake. We found it very clean and well-equipped (from the keyless entry system to the kitchen, extra bath towels, to pillows and games). The bunk bed was a hit with our daughter, and we appreciated the comfortable (firm) mattress in the master bedroom (that bed is fairly tall). Note that the beds occupy most of the space in each room. Nicole shared a lot of tips, both via a binder in the house and live on the app. The instructions in the binder are helpful especially trying to find our way to the private pier at the lake (10-min walk from the house). The close, small town of Mossyrock has several restaurants and grocery stores.

Very beautiful location that was extremely private. nice walkable neighborhood. friendly neighbors. easy access to the lake for fishing or boating.

Wonderful Stay at Brenda's Lakeside Retreat We had a lovely stay at Brenda's Airbnb! From the moment we arrived, she made us feel welcome and at home. The property is charmingly decorated, creating a cozy atmosphere that we really appreciated. Brenda provided thoughtful amenities, including a coffee bar that was perfect for our morning routine and a snack basket that was a nice touch. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and grill area, which offered a great spot to relax and take in the beautiful lake views. The view of the lake was a highlight of our stay, making it a perfect backdrop for our evenings. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Brenda’s place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway. Thank you, Brenda, for being such a gracious host!

Very good stay. Would recommend and would stay again in the future.

This was the perfect place to host our bridal party guests over the weekend! Troy has created a fun and welcoming environment. ~having access to laundry was great ~there was plenty of sleeping space. ~the kitchen was super cute and very clean ~check in was easy ~both the local cafe & deli, and bar & grill were within a 5 min walk ~close to local hikes and recreational areas ~covered patio & grill access

We had such a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The view overlooking the creek was absolutely beautiful and added such a peaceful touch to the whole experience. The place itself is maintained extremely well. It’s clear the hosts take great care of it. It felt very comforting and inviting from the moment we walked in, and the space is surprisingly spacious, giving plenty of room to relax. A big shoutout to the cleaning person, everything was spotless, and their attention to detail really made the stay feel even more special. The hosts were also incredibly kind and responsive, making sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!

Our family of 12 had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lakefront home! The space was more than enough for everyone to be comfortable, with plenty of beds and room to spread out. Even our grandmother, who uses a walker, was able to get around the house with ease, which made the stay even more enjoyable. We absolutely loved the fire pit and used it every night—such a cozy spot to relax and unwind after a day of activities. The location was also perfect for attending St. Martin’s Graduation, just a short and easy drive away. The house was clean, well-equipped, and full of great amenities like the hot tub, sports court, and private dock. The hosts have clearly put thought into creating a fun yet peaceful getaway, and we really appreciated the care they put into the home. Highly recommend for large families or groups looking for a relaxing lakeside retreat!

The stay at Joes was great. It’s quite the hike up the driveway since we cannot park down in the bottom but totally doable especially because he allows you to unpack at the bottom! We just happened to be there for a softball tournament so we had lots of gear to pack in and out. The ONLY thing I’d ask for is to put a mirror in each room, due to having only 1 bathroom and the mirrors available only in one room and not all 3 was a little difficult for the women in the house but we made it work. It was nice, quiet, clean and exactly what we needed for the weekend!

Wow. What a magical sanctuary. My husband and I booked the smaller room for a last minute getaway and were blown away. Katherine was so kind and personable and clearly very proud of the gorgeous home and lush vegetable gardens they've grown. There was something so special about petting the kitties and picking blueberries and marrionberries off the vine and right into my breakfast in the morning. The accommodations were just right for us, the sauna was exceptional, the location in Mossyrock and near Rainier was great, and the sunset view and the shooting stars at night were just something else. We would love to come back here. Thank you for a wonderful, albeit short, stay!!

Great location if you are looking for a peaceful and quiet time. less than a block away from a gorgeous park for running/walking. Beautiful neighborhood. Place was very clean and tidy. Everything we needed was there. The high celling gives the feeling of a much bigger place. Super comfortable large studio. Jon was a fantastic host, flexible and very responsive. He was on site, so he popped in to help me operate the fireplace. Very friendly and accommodating. My wife and I loved the place.

Felt very comfortable! Loren was there but it seemed like she was t as well, so respectful of our space very kind and communicative. Will definitely be staying again in the future! 🥰

Amazing Airbnb experience. I loved the sculpture garden and sculptures around the space itself. I felt more invested in the art when I went across the street to view the art gallery. The place was very clean and comfortable. I would recommend!

Denise is a very welcoming host. Her communications on the location and how to access the rental were very clear and easy to follow. She happened to be home and greeted us we entered the door. Within in day, my wife was trading cookie recipes with Denise. The space looks just like the photos on the Airbnb page. The living room/kitchen area is as large as many hotel rooms. It's in a great location within walking distance of downtown Hillsboro, the MAX and less than a 5 minute walk from the people we were visiting. As others have commented, the king-sized bed is very comfy. If you have mobility issues, be aware that there are stairs since it is a basement.

Another perfect stay at what has quickly become my home-away-from-home when visiting Vancouver for work. I absolutely love staying here and hate to leave - you know, except for missing my family of course!

My youngest son and I had a great weekend getaway. It was quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed board games, throwing rocks in the lake, and soaking in the hot tub. It had everything we needed!

This was such a lovely weekend. Our weather surprised to the upside so we spent so much time outdoors stand up paddle boarding and kayaking on this small, lovely, and very calm lake. The cabin is next to a wetland so birds were plentiful and we listened to them while we enjoyed the lake and sun all weekend. Once the sun went down we were able to enjoy the outdoor heaters and the fire table with a glass of wine. Jenn provided the most thorough instruction booklet I have ever seen at a rental and the cabin was full of informative signage and instructions. Plenty of hot water, towels and supplies. Very comfortable and easy to watch a movie, cook dinner, and rest easy. There are other cabins on the lake but it’s very quiet. Everyone we interacted with was friendly. This cute little 1950s cabin has been renovated and is light, bright and very comfortable. Check in was easy and the cabin felt very secure. We would 100% stay again and recommend the hosts.

Valentina’s place was perfect! Clean, spacious and in a great location that was easy to walk to local restaurants and things to do. Valentina was friendly, very responsive and had good suggestions for local attractions. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Lake Oswego. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

This cottage was clean, safe, and just as pictured. The kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans, utensils, etc and there was also a vacuum and mop for any spills. It was such a relief to be in a pet friendly space where my dog had the option to go out in a fenced yard (small, but still great). The neighborhood was calm and quiet and only ~20 mins from Olympia and ~50 mins from Tacoma. Thank you for a great stay, Shannon!

Beautiful views and peaceful area, this is a great place to get away from a busy life and just relax

Really enjoyed our stay at Christian's home. Very quiet and tucked away. The home was charming and came to life with the written family history shared with guests. Our family kayaked on lake and played games. Appreciated Christian's flexibility with check-in. Area isn't close to much and there is no TV, which was great for spending real slow-down quality time together. Next time we'll stay longer.

Great place to stay. Make sure you know of your booked a cabin to at has AC in the summer. We were not aware until we got there that the cabin we had didn’t have AC. Other than that the place is amazing. Fun having the lake right next door. Fishing was great!

This was a perfect getaway for our family of two and a pup. It was peaceful, tidy and relaxing. This cozy cabin was perfect for a weekend away. Loads of games for rain or shine, comfortable sleeping and even more room for kiddos or friends. We loved the quick drive to the local park and dock, as well as the walk down to the neighborhoods private dock (steep walk but thanks to the welcome sheet, we were prepared). Less than 10 minute drive into Mossyrock for a coffee shop stop, lunch at a bar or yummy Mexican restaurant or some thrifting at my girlfriend’s new favorite thrift store. We are already planning another trip out. It’s really helped us unwind, disconnect from our phones( don’t worry, there’s WiFi if you need it) and enjoy time with each other. We loved our time and can’t wait for our next stay

This was a wonderful place to stay! Close to the lake, VERY clean (and I am very particular when it comes to cleanliness), comfortable, cozy and great amenities. The host was very helpful and responsive. I would definitely stay here again.
