Woodsy Retreat has the trail to the temperate rain forest, and outdoor spa.
#WoodsyRetreat is a daylight walk-out suite- apartment- a prime example that nature's basic drive is not competition, as supposedly 'class' evolutionary theory maintains - its connection to our environment, home, where we choose to stay- staycation. You certainly understood this, with your play pool, hike, and soak! Woodsy Retreat is a private spa atmosphere that we keep enhancing.
I have never stayed at a VRBO property that gave me so much peace and quiet. The amenities were above par. One thing we noted was the amazing snacks and continental breakfast provided by the owner. We had gotten in late and had not eaten, so this was a welcome surprise. I would definitely prefer to stay here than anywhere I researched.
My friend and I stayed here for two nights. It was very comfortable, clean and Danica had stocked it with loads of tempting treats as well as lots lovely things for breakfast. There were also more coffee and tea choices than I think I have ever seen in similar properties. The hot tub was a real delight and we enjoyed using it both nights. Unfortunately, we used all of our energy up walking around downtown Olympia and the Farmer's Market so didn't explore the lovely forest and beach behind the property. A good reason to return.
The property was amazing. The host had snacks next to the pool table. Also, there was a continental breakfast setup on the coffee bar along with cheeses and drinks in the refrigerator. There were plush robes and slippers to wear out to the hot tub, which was really nice since it was cool out. The trail out the backdoor to the state park trail was amazing. We had such an enjoyable time!
Host left water, snacks, sodas to enjoy. There was plastic silverware and plates. Lots of appliances and fully stocked kitchen for cooking. Beautiful home and we enjoyed our stay. Some of the pots and pans could use updating and some of the appliances you can see the abuse making them unusable for our stay. Maybe consider another hot water heater. Difficult to take a bath after all the showers and still have hot water.
Such a sweet place surrounded by forest. Everything was clean and spotless. The kitchen was very well stocked and fun to cook in. The beds were so comfortable. We heard a Great Horned Owl in the trees one night and the frogs symphony.
We loved our stay at Woodsy Retreat. Our hosts had welcome drinks, crackers and cheeses, and a lovely continental breakfast ready and waiting for us! We loved the cozy decore and homey feel. The pool table was such a treat! We will rent this anazing place again.
Woodsy Retreat, was absolutely perfect for us. The owners really go above and beyond with the little details. I particularly enjoyed their little coffee station. So many choices and delights. It had all the convienence of home with a freling if camping outside. Sleeping with the windows open listening to the frogs and the the rain come down in very vomfortable beds gave us the ability to get some real needed dwep rest. Highly recommend Woodsy retreat for a small family or a couples get away
Danica and Phil were very communicative and welcoming hosts!
A friend and I stayed at the Woodsy Retreat for two nights and it was a wonderful experience. From the fresh bread, to the continental breakfast, the coffee, it was all so appreciated and all the special touches made the space the perfect spot to stay.
We had a wonderful time and highly recommend it to others! The outside hot tub was a big hit, very private, and located adjacent to the forest, which is right outside the entrance, and offered easy access to trails. Inside was very spacious, with an open floor plan and two couches in the main room for group conversation. The gas stove in the corner provided a warm ambience. The generous host left a variety of snacks and breaded treats. It's in a quiet, rural neighborhood, but feels like you are miles away from civilization. Great getaway!
I loved staying in this property! We needed a get away from normal busy life and this was perfect. It feels like they thought of every possible thing we could need, including an abundance of snacks. The hot tub and forest trail were amazing!
I have stayed at several "rentals" and this place was amazing! One of the best we have stayed at! The little extras was so nice and wonderful. The breakfast treats, coffee/tea bar etc. Even cold beer in fridge!? Everything was super clean. Beds wonderfully comfortable. Everything you need to cook amazing meals. Cant say enough good things about this place! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing space
Enjoyed the extras. Couldnât believe the wonderful food and beverages that were provided.
I think the VRBO site itself was a stumbling block as it relates to communicating. Clunky. Have to go to my email then hit a button to navigate to the site .
Get ready for a spa like visit to restore & renew !
A friend and I rented the Woodsy Retreat for our stay during a dance workshop and were delighted we did!
This was one of the best rentals I have been to, with so much attention to detail. Super comfy beds, yummy breakfast provided, AMAZING hot tub facing the woods, we definitely will be returning.
Dancia was so kind in her communication. Five stars and then some !!
This is our second stay here and it was another great stay and time! Does not matter what the weather is or time of yearâŠ..this place makes you feel comfortable and cozy. We will be backâŠhopefully soon!
We came and stayed a few nights for my wife's birthday and had a great stay. There was delicious homemade bread waiting for us along with some other great goodies. The location is amazing with a short trail to the state park, perfect woods-walk location. Communication was amazing. Thanks for the great stay!
Beautiful place to stay and the hospitality was outstanding! Wonderful beds! Nice walking trail. We loved all of it and definitely would stay here again!
This is such a lovely retreat in the woods! We enjoyed the outdoor spa and all of the thoughtful touches throughout the space. A trip to the beach was fun too. I wish weâd stayed more than one night!
The property was amazing and the grounds amazing!! Beautifully furnished and so clean and luxurious. The added treats from the host upon check in were a special treat! The host was so communicative and gracious. I loved my stay!!
