What a warm and comfortable home. Everything we needed for our comfort and entertainment was provided, cards, books, movies, sports equipment. The lake is beautiful, and both mornings we were there we watched a bald eagle fishing for his breakfast. All in all it was a beautiful, comfortable place to stay.

We enjoyed our stay very much and look forward to planning another trip like this one! Maybe next time I'll do the surprising! Thanks again for the tranquility! Sincerely"

We were more excited to come back here & make a drink & just hang out. The weather was perfect also. Can this place get any better? Well, we most definitely will be back & can't wait to jump in the golf cart & head to the course again.

From email: "We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It wasn't as relaxing as I had hoped with people coming and going, and with me cooking more than I had wanted to do, but it was worth it seeing family & in such nice surroundings. The guys played golf one day & enjoyed the use of the cart & set some course records---most divots, most lost balls, etc! The spa was a welcome amenity after that day! The cottage was immaculate and it seems you have thought of everything to make your guests comfortable and we really appreciated that. We have already recommended it to several people who will be traveling to that area in the future. Thank you for accomodating us."

Your cottage is so lovely, we found ourselves right at home soon after "moving in" for our week-long stay. Thank you so much for everything! We hope to return next summer!"

"Camaloch Cottage has truly been a home away from home...today we leave the quiet stillness of the lake, the ducks, fish, pedalboat, the life-like reflections on the glassy water viewed through large windows while warming by the cozy stove, the well stocked kitchen, the beautiful decor and many other amenities of the cottage, the jacuzzi, eating area & grill on the spacious deck.
"The rhodedondrons have been indescribably picturesque! We've explored Camano Island State Park and enjoyed the views of the mountains and the sound. The quaint town of Stanwood is near with its Norwegian heritage, especially The Scandia Bakery & Cafe and the "Uff Dah" shop. Our favorite saying.
"I can go on & on...It's so beautiful I could just sit here and look at it all day! I think I will!! Thank you!"

Not only was the island, the view, and the house beautiful & relaxing, it was the little touches you provided in the cottage that are memorable.

| It was a girls, there were 5 of us and there was plenty of room. We loved the cottage, it was absolutely beautiful and peaceful. We golfed 18 holes at the golf course. Had Smore's at the firepit and sat in the hot tub, even brought kayaks and used the paddle boat the ducks followed us all around the lake, it was sooo cute. Thanks to Gloria we had a great get away. |
