                            PEACEFUL, IDYLLIC PUGET VIEW COTTAGE

Exclusively yours---Puget View is the only historic Puget Sound waterfront property in the Olympia area offered for vacation rental use.  An astounding location on the south shore of Puget Sound, Puget View's iconic ambience has welcomed guests from around the world for over twenty years.  Carefully updated and renovated---Puget View is a cedar shake bungalow set gracefully among tall firs and rhododendrons on the grounds of historic Kinnebrew House, the 1930's log home of your hosts Dick and Barbara Yunker.  Puget View is---what one travel writer aptly calls---"classic Puget Sound."

Nature getaway, romantic retreat, destination vacation, or extended stay corporate housing---Puget View is the perfect lodging choice.  One hour south of SeaTac, five minutes off I-5 on the outskirts of Olympia and Lacey, Washington---Puget View is minutes from Fort Lewis and McCord Air Force Base---with easy access to the real Washington---in all its glory.

Puget View is where peace and beauty abound.  Let eagles, heron, osprey---surprise you.  The blink of a seal, the bark of a sea lion entertain you.  Relax in the hammock.  Revel in wowser views of the 7,000 foot peaks of Olympic National Park across the bay.  Get up close to bristling, live sand dollars.  Rustle up a cook-out at Puget View's beachside campfire.  Explore the shore in your complimentary kayak or canoe.  Treat yourself to a walk through Puget View's neighborhood rain forest, 100-acre Tolmie State Park, right next door.

Perhaps fishing is your forte.  Professional Puget Sound fishing guides bring their clients to this beach for some of the finest salmon and steelhead fishing around.  And seal watching?  Let us tell you about one of Puget Sound's largest seal rookeries---"just around the corner."

Really adventuresome?  Ask about affordable float plane fly-ins.

Testimonials:  We thought about publishing a few, but couldn't choose which ones.  We have offered Puget View for many years, and have over a dozen guest books full of lovely notes from former Puget View guests---and friends!   We look forward to adding your name to the list and to hosting you at Puget View!

Perfect getaway

Marie & Kent (Spokane, WA)
Review submitted: April 5, 2011   Date of arrival: April 1, 2011

Perfect weekend getaway - view of Puget Sound and the Olympics leaves me speechless! Next to lovely park with trails and beachwalking just 5 minutes down the road, or 2 minutes down the stairs to the beach. Lovely art work, comfy bed, cute and functional kitchenette, lovely breakfast waiting in the fridge (including eggs, OJ, home baked banana bread). Lots of lovely details, including knitted slippers. Kayaks available for use too.

Recommended for: adventure seekers, age 55+, sight seeing, romantic getaway

Dear Barbara and Dick---In our 24th year of marriage, I can honestly say this has been our best vacation EVER! Your thoughtful arrangement of the gifts God has given you has been a true blessing to us, a perfect reminder of his majesty and love, that He would share this with us, the work of His hands. Thank you for sharing your home amidst this marvelous geography, and many thanks to the hospitality of dear Senor Gato who greeted us many times upon our entrance and exit to the cottage. Thankfully and fondly, P and T
