At the waters edge of Lake Tapps you’ll find our cabana. It’s hidden and private within our residential property. You’ll have the entire waterfront to yourself. Fish off the dock, kayak, or just relax in seclusion. Outdoors you’ll find a large covered porch, fireplace and hot tub. Inside- a queen wall Bed, small sofa bed, fireplace, cable TV, Wifi.

In the Cabana you'll find a couch, a sofa bed, a dining table, a gas fireplace, electric heat, a large cable TV, coffee supply and maker, microwave that is also a convection air fryer, hot plate, a good amount of cooking supplies and a queen murphy bed (no oven or range). We can provide a pack and play and high chair if you request. Be advised the shower room is privately accessed through the bathroom. It has no ceiling. Most consider this part of the adventure.

Guest access
The Cabana is on the waterfront of Lake Tapps. You'll drive through the entry gate and park near the second house to right of the carport near the brick pillar on the right and next to the iron fence. You'll walk over the hill from the main house to get there. We send you a picture of your parking place. Walk forward past the carport through a small gate and follow the path down. It's very private at the water since no one is on the lake during the fall and spring season. The door will be unlocked and your key will be by the guest book. Lock behind you.
We seek to give you a great experience, however if we fall short somehow, please let us know directly and immediately so we can fix whatever is needed. This platform will remove us if we fall below a 4.7 rating so we ask for your help. Tell us directly of any issues. We hope you will mainly be pleased and give us a 5 star. Happy Travels.

Other things to note
Remember, this is a large studio. Our kitchen has the basics of a a nice kitchen but is lacking a stove so simple meals are best. There is a large fridge, dishwasher, microwave - air fryer and a large toaster oven. A good hotplate as well. Outside you’ll find the waterfront, hot tub, the kayaks, life vests, the fire bowl and the dock. There is an outdoor fireplace, and BBQ. We provide some wood for the fire. Lake Tapps is a reservoir and is regulated by a PUD. From November to March they draw the water down 3 feet. This simply means during this season you will walk out a few feet to get to the water, should you desire to kayak. We have life jackets on the south side of the Cabana. Use these for Kayaking or floating around. During warmer months it’s perfect here for swimming. Driving to Mt. Rainier? We are just about 1 hour from the Crystal mountain ski resort turn off and just 75 minutes from the Sunrise entrance to the National Park. Enumclaw, the Super Mall or the Casino's are all just a few minutes away.

I am glad you are interested in our Cabana. I enjoy hard work and making something worthwhile. I'm married to an amazing lady and we've been together 38 years. I like hot cars, good food, coffee, hunting, fishing and jeeping. I have 4 grown children. Our family enjoys waterskiing, wake surfing and tubing. You'll love our property on Lake Tapps.
