They are riverfront on the Sol Duc and you can enjoy the view from anywhere on the property. Plenty of room and space for any activity. Reading a book by the fireplace, playing games at the dinner tables or enjoying the outdoor fire pit. They have great mud rooms as we were up there fishing. This way we could dry out day to day. These two rentals are maybe 5 miles from Forks. Far enough to feel like your way out but close enough to run into town for anything you need. I will definitely be back up at the Cozy River House the next time I am up on the Olympic Peninsula. It's a great find!

From the owner: A Cozy River House is a private, 3-bedroom riverfront retreat cabin nestled on the banks of the Sol…read moreDuc River, just minutes from Olympic National Park. Perfect for group cabin rentals, small retreats, wildlife enthusiasts, and fishing parties, the cabin comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests across 7 beds (including a 5-bed bunk room). Amenities include: a fully equipped kitchen, a dedicated laundry room with gear hooks, a covered back deck with a gas fire pit overlooking the river, lawn games, and a circular driveway with ample room for boat trailers. Pets: Strictly no pets allowed on the property.

When we showed up to occupy the site that we reserved and paid for about 1 month prior to our…read morearrival we were told that there was a computer glitch that double booked our site. We were then given the space next to the one we had booked and paid for. We had to share the electrical, water, and sewer connections with the motor home that was in our original site. This was very inconvenient since we had to "schedule" our sewer dumps, had low water pressure, had our electricity turned off while we were away site seeing (it could have been that the breaker blow with double power plugged in). We also compared notes with the couple who occupied our original site and were told by them that their site was given to someone else so they were given our site. This did not set well with us because it meant that the manager of the park had lied to us about why our site was not available to us. To make matters worse we had to stretch our two electrical cords to reach the plugin since it was so far away from our trailer. This resulted in our cord coming apart which required me to spend $100 to replace it. Their lying to us and making no effort to reimburse us partially for paying for a full hook up site that we did not get to occupy are the reasons that I will never book with this campground again. Honesty and an effort to make things right would have gone a long ways to giving them a higher rating.

On the other hand, I have stayed in a variety of cabins around the country, and this was by far the most expensive per square foot AND the least updated, although they did stock the kitchen with every utensil and tool you will need. We stayed in 108 at the end. I would definitely advise to the manager or owners of the property to add a little list of where all supply stock is located for your guests. When we arrived, the toilet paper AND paper towels were nearly out. We searched in obvious places under the sink and cabinet drawers to find more toilet paper, to find it later in a small hideaway above the washer and dryer. Games and puzzles are located in the kitchen drawers to the left of the sink. Emergency items such as flashlights, candles are located in that same area in the kitchen. If an extra blanket is needed, I wouldn't know where to find one. Otherwise, I great place to come.

SCAM ALERT!!! RUN…read moreAWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!! Upon our arrival at 402 Kallman Road the day prior to check-in, there was debris in the yard. (Because we had reached out multiple times via phone and email to confirm our reservations and had not received a reply, we arrived a day early.) Still, the property is vastly different from the property listed on HomeAway.com, listing #7834193, which we paid $1,600.00 to rent from July 16th through July 23, 2019. While the owners have removed the listing, they haven't removed the Facebook listing that shows the resort named at the same (https://www.facebook.com/MichaelWolf998765/). The advertised "resort" depicted sunsets on the water, natural alcoves in a romantic setting, and a retreat-like atmosphere and included many 5-star "reviews" that sold us on the rental. We arrived to what appeared to be multiple unkempt, personal trailer homes for full-time residents, not a popular tourist destination created for vacation purposes. The buildings were broken down with peeling paint and were surrounded by discarded junk. The yard of this dilapidated property was strewn with broken furniture, a wet mattress, and garbage. We were overcome with anxiety; in person, the location felt dangerous and unsafe, like a place drug addicts and criminals might hang out. This was absolutely NOT what we had paid for and we were horrified, especially because our friends would be arriving and would not have a place to stay during high season on the Olympic Peninsula. Concerned for our safety, we left the premises immediately and scrambled to piece together other arrangements. After this initial experience, we communicated with the owner, Mike, who appeared to be high on drugs because his eyes were glazed and he rambled on at a fast pace about delusional nonsense. For example, he claimed he owned "the entire riverbed", that the rocks in the river are geodes that contain jade and sapphires. He also claimed that the garden shed was a rentable cottage. We have also been in touch online. At no time has he offered to refund any of the $1,600 he received on 5/17/2019, nor has he done so. Instead, he claimed he'd only rented us the backyard of this property and referred to his egregious, fraudulent misrepresentation as a cancellation on our part. After we made a complaint to the Attorney General Mike sent my friends text messages threatening to have us arrested for slander as well as offering to refund some of our money " I will follow my attorneys advice on a refund" if we would take our reviews of our experience down from google reviews. Upon closer investigation, we learned that the sellers have multiple identities. Michael Bradham of Northern Approaches LLC is actually Michael Wolf, as noted from his Facebook page, where he lists both his real name AND being the owner of Northern Approaches, the company who scammed us. The same is true for Sharice Paris, who is on the Northern Approaches emails - her real name is also Wolf. More importantly, we learned that the 5-star reviews that accompanied the beautiful, fake photos, and which had been the deciding factor in our decision to rent the property, were fraudulent as well! Michael and Sharice both wrote separate, exemplary reviews as if they were guests at the resort rather than the owners. Additionally, Dustin Crear, who according to his Facebook page is their employee, also provided a fraudulent, 5-star review. In fact, every review on the property came from the Port Angeles area where they live and Sarah Sullivan, another reviewer, bears an uncanny resemblance to Sharice. Clearly, we are victims of a scam. Not only were we robbed of money, but also of precious time with our friends.

They have several units to choose from, but we chose the "Perch", which was the largest. It didn't disappoint! We didn't even use half the space! Currently, check-in is anytime after 2:00pm. We checked ourselves in and upon entering, found a spacious "home"! Divided by a set of stairs, there is a murphy bed (sleeps 2), bath & shower, dining area and full kitchen to the left. On the dining table was a lovely note addressed to us by the hosts Craig & Michelle, accompanied by a bottle of wine and a bowl of granola bars. Then, in the refrigerator, there was a nicely adjourned box nestled with yogurts, orange juice, hard boiled eggs, fresh fruit, a small bottle of Prosecco (for mimosas) and chocolate! We turned around and on the kitchen counter was a plate of local pastries! In the room on the other side of the stairs is another bedroom (sleeping 2-3), king bed, full bath and sitting area with coffee maker and coffee pods. Downstairs by the front door is a living room with TV, comfy couch & chair, wet bar, small fridge and washer/dryer! As everyone knows, with a home or business, there will always be times of repair and/or construction. Currently, the upper deck is being repaired, so we weren't able to take advantage of that. Instead, we took a long walk along the water, watched the eagles soar overhead, waved at people passing by and enjoyed the fresh sea air! Eating at local restaurants is always a plus and enjoying wine in the evenings watching the sun lower gently on the horizon out of sight made this trip, along with our fabulous hosts, Craig & Michelle, all worthwhile. Thank you for making our local getaway a special one!

Just recently we rented the same facility, but they canceled it as they claimed they no longer had that under their auspices. They offered us some replacements and we chose one that ended up requiring us parentheses two people in their 70s and parentheses to walk up a flight of stairs inside a dank and smelly garage that were very steep and one of us could not handle them. In addition, the unit turned out to be much more drab and dingy than the pictures made it appear and there was no air-conditioning. We did not realize that we were supposed to click through the "amenities" and look for that fact, as it was not mentioned in the initial description. We could not stay in this unit and immediately telephoned them parentheses it took seven or a telephone calls to both the emergency number - where the mailbox was full, and the main number before somebody answered. I informed him that we would not be staying and they could do as they chose with our reservation but asked if he thought we could get at least a partial refund. He said he believed that would be possible. In short, we threw away over $1700, including the original insurance parentheses which they manage and parentheses for the stay there. We obtained alternative living quarters for our stay in Sequim. I offered Brigadoon 1/4 of the fees, again, reminding them I was releasing back to them the rental for the entire time, but they would not work with us. I will never work with this company again and I caution others in this regard.
