Family Reunion

We very much enjoyed our week long stay here at Cedars on the Sound. In fact, it was probably the nicest home we have ever stayed at. It was very clean and easy to see the owners take exceptional care to make their guests feel welcome. The instructions for everything were very clear and easy to follow. My husband and I have 3 young children and the owners left a very clean pack and play available for our use. We appreciated all of the helpful little touches that go a long way when children are along. They even had outlet covers, a framed phone number list for emergency contacts right by the phone, childrens books and night lights. We took advantage of the week of sun and headed directly outdoors every morning for a walk in the woods. It was so quiet both day and night. We kept the bedrooms a bit on the warmer side at night for the kids and the baseboard heat was silent! We plan to come back at least once every year.

Much easier having a "home" to come to every night

From our guestbook:
We had a wonderful stay. Our son's wedding was less stressful having Cedars to return to every night after busy days of wedding plans. We hosted a lovely dinner for the wedding party and everyone loved "the cabin." My son and his new bride were able to spend time here and getting to know our new daughter-in-law was much easier having a "home" to come to every night. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Cedars on the Sound did not disappoint. It's a beautiful property and home. Even the view from the kitchen sink is lovely. The owner was completely welcoming and generous, and cared very much about making our stay comfortable in every way. Everything of necessity is well supplied. We had privacy and yet we were within an easy drive to main areas of the city. Certainly, we hope to return one day. Thank you!

Family Christmas

5 of 5
Submitted: January 12, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
“Cedars on the Sound!” Those words have a beautiful visual and audio impression in our minds since we stayed at Cedars on the Sound on in Olympia, Washington, on Puget Sound. We stayed over the Christmas Holidays with family for two weeks. The uniqueness started even before we arrived with our pleasant communications with the owners. Upon our arrival, we were met with fresh baked cookies on the counter, and the cookies turned out to be just the beginning of our feeling welcomed and comfortable. We were impressed with how the owners planned everything they could to make us feel comfortable and welcomed.

Logs for our use were next to the wood-burning stove to add atmosphere to our winter stay. Close up and personal views of the sounds were vivid from the dining and living room, sunroom, and master bedrooms. Views from the other windows were of the dense seven acres, parkland-like woods of ferns, and cedars. Only one pretty house was visible at a far distance across the sound. At night the house looked as though it were a Thomas Kinkaide scene through the trees.

The entire house was clean and fresh. The amenities were more than adequate and useful. Dishes, flatware, pots and pans, cooking utensils were all neatly organized and clean. A well-planned neighborhood store was only a mile away, full-fledged Capitol Mall shopping center with all the big box stores, car malls, and grocery stores about 10 minutes away. We toured the nearby Washington State Capitol, Tumwater Park, and enjoyed a lovely dinner at the Terrace Falls Restaurant with views of the falls, all within the Historic District, and right around the lake from the Capitol. We were amazed at how we could leave the beautiful and pristine, quiet area of Cedars on the Sound and how quickly we could be in a full-blown urban area.

We took a couple afternoons to visit the nearby Flight Museum and many other interesting areas near Seattle and the vicinity. The owners provided a lovely binder of many interesting places to visit. We could have spent another two weeks or more and enjoyed every minute. We will look forward to a return vacation at this site. We highly recommend a stay at this location. We think we found the ultimate in both a living and vacationing site.
