This was such a cute, private and serene place to stay in a very safe area. The owner Ed was very responsive and a great communicator. We stayed for four nights as we were in town for a music event and a family birthday. This property is beautiful and was as described. We were sad to leave and our fur babies also loved it. We will definitely stay here again if we need to stay in this part of town.

This is the first property I have stayed in with VRBO that I can give an outstanding review for! This felt like we were coming in for a romantic getaway on the water that was owned by family. I will come back and bring our daughter as the water access is fantastic. Beautiful property!

We had a great time staying here! it was very clean and cozy. It was the perfect amount of space for the two of us and our two dogs! There are plenty of things to do in the area and in the cottage. It has a great view of the water and lots of areas for you to walk around. I would definitely recommend staying here and would even come back myself.

Our stay at this Lake Tripp property was perfect. The accommodations were immaculate and included amenities we weren't expecting but thoroughly enjoyed. The respect for our privacy and personal comfort displayed by the hosts was exemplary. We do hope we can stay again the next time we are visiting family in the area.

This is the perfect place for me to stay. I am close to family and my granddaughters were thrilled to be able to jump in the lake everyday. I have stayed in the fall as well, it's just a great spot for me. The hosts are friendly and I know I could contact them with any questions or concerns at any time.

Ed and Sheri are the Perfect Hosts. Their property is immaculately kept. The Bungalow is just right for a couple and their dog. It is well stocked, very clean and well maintained. Ed and Sheri let us use the paddle boards, kayaks and all the water toys they have. My wife and I and Gracie would like to thank the perfect hosts for our vacation, a vacation we will not forget.

This is a lovely property with a kind and considerate owner who goes far above and beyond. I cannot tell him how much I appreciate him, his property and his willingness to work with my son and his big loveable dogs.

This was my first VRBO experience & it was absolutely perfect. The host, Ed, was excellent at communicating with me and provided me with all the information needed to enjoy my 60th birthday. I honestly have no complaints about the place. Would most definitely return in the future .

I chose this spot because it is close to my son and his family. It worked out well and I plan to stay there whenever I come from Wisconsin to visit if available. Communication with Ed was great and I felt very comfortable staying by myself. I would not change a thing. Thank You!

Things could not have been better...even with one day of rain, and that's Seattle. Things along the lake were spectacular...the place itself was thoughtfully done, and there was more "stuff' in the kitchen then I was expecting. Would highly recommend to others.

From the beginning with check-in through check-out this was the best stay we have had in 10 years doing VRBO. The location, the cleanliness, and the responsive and welcoming hosts made this a very memorable stay. All instructions were written out so there were no questions that needed to be answered. The unit was well equipped with everything you would need for a longer stay. And, the best part, your patio is only a few steps from the water. Our only regret is that we didn't book it for the whole summer, but we are really looking forward to staying here next year.

I wanted to take my grandkids for a little mini vacation before school starts back up. They love the water and this was a perfect spot. It was 20 minutes from where we live so it was perfect. We loved the kayaks, paddle boards and the little channel that the bungalow sits on. The park across the street was a lot of fun. The kids enjoyed the water slide, jumping off the tower and we played pickle ball on the tennis courts. I can’t say enough about how much fun we had. 5 star rating for sure.
