Stunning Pacific Northwest Lakehouse on 100' waterfront near Seattle!
About this house rental
Situated in Lake Goodwin, this charming house for $1,659 per night is a fantastic choice for your next vacation. Welcome to our beautiful lake house, a true hidden gem nestled among lush trees and picturesque landscapes, with stunning views of the tranquil waters of Lake Goodwin. We're excited to share that we just completed a major renovation on the property in 2023, making this place even more comfortable and inviting than ever before. Situated just 40 minutes north of downtown Seattle and a short drive to Vancouver Canada, this lake house is the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. With spacious indoor and outdoor dining areas, it's an ideal destination for large families, corporate offsites, and special events. Our family has owned this amazing lake house for over 15 years and we've enjoyed countless summers here with our children. It's where they learned important life skills like fishing, building fires, and swimming. And now, we're thrilled to share our home with you. Whether you visit in the summer or winter, you'll find the atmosphere to be peaceful and relaxing. In the summer, the lake is alive with people enjoying the water, with seaplanes touching down and the occasional sight of the Blue Angels flying by. In the winter, the fog settles on the lake, creating a serene atmosphere, and you'll see magnificent Blue Herons perched on the dock. The main house boasts over 100 feet of warm waterfront, with a large **dock perfect for fishing, swimming, watersports, or just lounging in the sun. There's even a level-to-the-water beach that's perfect for wading. Inside, we've furnished the place from top to bottom, including the outdoor furniture, to ensure your stay is as comfortable as possible. Our open concept kitchen and family room offer unobstructed views of the lake. The dining table seats 10, and our outdoor table right outside the kitchen seats 8. We have plenty of outdoor seating areas, private corners, and beautiful on-the-water seating. And with a fully stocked kitchen, including two dishwashers, fridge/freezer, microwave, coffee maker, and plenty of wine glasses, you'll have everything you need for cooking, baking, or barbecuing. The family room is the perfect place to unwind after a long day of activities, with a 75" TV, Internet access, and an oversized sectional that's just begging to be lounged on. And with bedrooms that are well-appointed with fresh linens, pillows, blankets, and towels, you'll feel right at home. We also have really good WIFI that covers the entire property. For those looking for some fun and games, we've got you covered with board games, a pool table, and a ping pong table in the basement. And outside, you'll find plenty of outdoor furniture to lounge around in during the warm months. Water toys, including Stand Up Paddleboards and Life Vests, are available for an additional fee. And with a large dock* that features a boat lift, a 10k lift for a big wakeboard boat, you'll have plenty of opportunities for watersports. During fruit season, you can even pick a variety of apples, pears, red and yellow plums, and cherries from our trees at the end of the private driveway. And for those interested in basketball, we have a hoop in the cul-de-sac. Our lake house comfortably sleeps 16 people, making it the perfect spot for family reunions, relaxing getaways, and corporate retreats. And with no other property nearby that's even close, you'll have the privacy and seclusion you crave. We take the safety and cleanliness of our guests seriously and have always thoroughly cleaned and disinfected the entire house before and after guests' visits. **(the dock is being replaced in October-December 2023, please be aware there will be some construction going on.) Please note: ALL events need to be pre-approved by the owners before booking and are subject to eviction otherwise. …and for all approved events tenants must agree to remove all garbage and recycle from the property prior to check-out, there is a transfer station nearby in Arlington.

The house/property was perfect for our NYE getaway with friends and young kids. There was plenty of space and the location right on the lake was lovely! We all hope to come back in the summer!

Property was absolutely beautiful. House was spacious and lovely. Views are extraordinary. My only suggestion would be to supply the kitchen in the guest house with eating and cooking utensils. Great hosts!

We had a fantastic time at the lakehouse with all its views and amenities. The adults and 4 children enjoyed swimming and paddle boarding in the lake, playing pool and ping pong in the house and fishing off the pier. The kids had so much fun that not once did they open their iPad for entertainment. There were plenty of comfortable beds and lots of towels. The guest house was lovely with all its new renovations. Just be aware that there are no window treatments yet in the guest house. Also, there are a lot of stairs leading to the house and to the lake so it can be difficult for seniors, but my 102 yr. mother made it with help. We were there on the 4th of July and the fireworks were amazing. Rahul was a great host. He always answered my texts and emails in a timely manner and will try to accommodate any special needs you have.

Our family of 11 (ages 9 to 71) had a great time playing in the lake, cooking dinners together and relaxing on the deck. The house is very spacious and had plenty of room for everyone and a variety of activities available.

Our family from all over the US gathered for the burial and memorial of the patriarch of the family. Four of the families stayed at this home for 5 nights with plenty of room to spare and other members visited when they could. It was such a wonderful venue to celebrate, contemplate, play together, etc. We rented the paddle boards the owner has available and a local relative tied his fishing skiff up to the dock for everyone’s use. The hot tub was a hit with the teenagers. If we are ever in the great northwest again, we definitely would stay here again.

From the moment we arrived until the time we left, we loved this place! Amazing view on the lake and great location. For 3 families with kids (11-14), the place is perfect with a guest house and a main house. The private beach is so relaxing and fun!
We will definitely come back!

Our family gathered in this lovely home while in the area for our sons wedding. The multiple places to sleep enabled everyone to be comfortable and happy. We enjoyed the ping pong and pool tables and the beautiful location. Gorgeous October weather gave us the opportunity to enjoy swimming, playing by the water & soaking up the sun on the comfortable seating on the decks. Highly recommend this beautiful home.

The house and guest house were nice but I feel if you are going to ask the price that you do there should be everything working and clean. There was a shelve in the fridge that was broken, one of the dishwashers was not cleaning the dishes, exposed nails in cupboards, fan in kitchen only worked on one speed. We had to clean the decks before we could use them and finally had to call the owner to have the furniture cleaned.
The skylight was broken and the lighting in the living room were string lights from Costco. I own several vacation rentals in Montana and a resort. This house would never pass our inspection or be rented without all the updates and repairs that are needed to be done. We all feel that some of our money should be returned and definitely all of our deposit. We would probably choose another place to stay in the future,

What a wonderful property. We’ve stayed twice now and each time was perfect. I dont think I’ve seen so many cannonballs off the dock! Kids loved the water. We brought our snorkeling gear and they spent a lot if time doing that too. And it was so nice for the adults to relax on the deck or in the chairs down below while the kids swam. Hot tub to lake to hot tub to lake. :). We also had many games of pool upstairs and the kids played ping pong. Beds were comfortable. Nice to have walk-in showers. Kitchen was pretty stocked with spices and bowls and pans. Plenty of space for our family of 11. So nice to find a property that allows dogs too! Even she had fun in the water. The entrance to water is rocky so I would suggest water shoes, but other than that, +++++++! We’ll be back! Owner VERY easy to work with which was quite nice.

It was such a treat to stay in this beautiful home on the lake I grew up on. We were able to have a celebration of life for my brother with a small group, and it was the perfect location to do so. The views of the lake from the upper deck and living area were spectacular. The home had everything we needed to host a small gathering of fewer than 30, including a well-stocked kitchen and a large barbecue area for us to barbecue salmon, as well as a campfire area for music and s'mores. We have teenagers who really enjoyed staying in the guest house and the use of the pool table, video games, ping pong table and hot tub. We used the dock and beach for our own boat and jet skis. Check-in was a breeze. The owner was easy to communicate with and understanding. I love the waterfall down to the steps of the front door. We cracked our bedroom window at night so we could hear it's sounds. Having our morning coffee on the deck, perched up above the lake was so blissful. We hope to return!

Was a wonderful place to sit back and relax from the hectic wedding weekend. Everyone especially enjoyed the hot tub! And my spouse and grandkids enjoyed swimming in the lake. I just enjoyed the soothing sounds from the waterfall and the views from the back porch. Would highly recommend staying here!

The property was as advertised. It is on a beautiful lake in a wonderful area. An hour north of Seattle and an hour south of Anacortes. We to a Mariner's game in Seattle and kayaking and whale watching from Anacortes. The owner was easy to work with and responsive. Lake Goodwin was wonderful and the entire family spent a lot of time in the water. I would definitely recommend the property for a large family gathering spanning multiple age groups. We had 12 people ranging in age from 12 to 80 and they all were very happy with the property. The only issue was really with VRBO. The owner posted arrival instructions on how to access the house on arrival but they did not show up. Fortunately I was able to contact the owner who sorted it out, but it should not have happened. If I had not been able to contact him we would have not been able to get into the property.

Great vacation
Outstanding property. Picturesque. Gorgeous views. Because the property is on a lake- there should be a canoe or kayak available. I considered buying a few $109 kayaks at Walmart, but decided against it.

The property was as advertised and met our expectations. The weather created problems, snow and ice. The hosts were quick to respond to our request to clear the 39 steps from the house to the parking area and had the gardeners salt and sand the stairs and driveway. They were also very quick to respond to questions we had regarding how to make things work.

This was our second time staying at this lake house. Both stays were amazing. There is something to do for every age. You can relax in the lake front and watch the kids play at the lake. Mr. Sood was always available for any questions. Everything was flawless and our family will continue to come back to this property.

This house was just perfect for our family of 21! It was just what we expected based on the description and pictures. The pool table, ping pong table, and hot tub were in use any time we weren't in the lake, and my granddaughters loved having the piano. We were surprised at how clear the lake water was, and couldn't believe the water temp was 74 degrees! If you are considering this rental - JUST DO IT!!

Perfect getaway!
The house is even better in person with plenty of room for large groups. The location is perfect. You feel as though you have left the city behind, but you still have easy access to stores and restaurants (Costco and Target are just a few min away). Overall a great place for a family getaway or a week with friends.

Wow, where to begin! 3 months ago my now husband and I were looking for a place to stay for our wedding weekend.

The communication was superb and leading up to the weekend we got more and more excited! Thank you again for allowing guests to experience the beauty of your property!

Great Place
This is a great property for groups of parents who want to balance family time with friends. When we woke up each day our kids ranging from 3-11 ate together in the great room with lake views and then the kids just went off to play in the house. We had 7 kids and they were almost independently entertained without fighting for 5 days! The steps are so safe and carpeted so it was no problem for the 3yr olds. Lots to do inside. We would’ve loved to go in warmer weather as the patio sets are very nice but it was too chilly. Great place and we want to go back 100%. Improvements would be larger beds in the main house lower floor, or having a couple of larger mattresses on the lower floor stored for use as needed, and that’s it. We brought our own device for streaming as well which is kinda the norm.

We absolutely loved our stay here! The view from the kitchen is mesmerizing. We slept comfortably with 4 families and enjoyed all the bonus spaces.
