Todd and Kim take pride in their home and want to make sure your stay is comfortable and enjoyable. Olympic Dreams Chalet was built by local craftsmen w/ locally milled lumber. The home also has synthetic green siding.

Durable siding reduces demand for harvesting & extracting raw materials & reduces waste. ODC also has a solar water heater.

Why we like having a solar water heater - Besides saving you money, solar water heaters also provide big benefits to the planet by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution, and demand for fossil fuels. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, replacing an electric water heater with a solar water heater offsets the equivalent of 40% to 100% of a typical passenger car’s CO2 output.
