Welcome to Little Leaf Cottage at Haven on Lake Steilacoom — an intimate lakefront studio with vintage cottage soul and an unexpectedly luxurious interior. Soaring cedar ceilings, warm natural textures, a full gourmet kitchen, and a spa-inspired bathroom make this petite retreat feel distinctive, comfortable, and beautifully complete.

Wake up to the lake.
The king bed is positioned to take full advantage of the water view, allowing the lake to be one of the first things you see each morning. Premium bedding, soft layers, and the peaceful shoreline setting create a restful retreat designed especially for two.

Small in scale, exceptional in design.
Little Leaf’s open studio layout is both beautiful and highly functional. Cedar-clad ceilings add warmth and character, while carefully selected furnishings create comfortable places to lounge, read, stream a favorite series, or relax beside the fireplace.

A full kitchen made for people who love to cook.
Unlike many studio cottages, Little Leaf offers a genuinely upscale, fully equipped kitchen with a gas range, dishwasher, generous preparation space, and a charming vintage-style refrigerator. Quality cookware, sharp knives, oils, spices, coffee, tea, and thoughtful pantry essentials make everything from breakfast in bed to a lakefront dinner feel easy.

An unexpectedly luxurious spa bathroom.
The bathroom is one of Little Leaf’s defining spaces, with heated flooring, a rainfall shower, cedar warmth, and skylights that fill the room with natural light. Expansive water views create the dreamy sensation of showering in the open air—while remaining completely comfortable indoors.

Your own private outdoor retreat.
Step outside to a private patio with outdoor seating, dining space, and a firepit overlooking the water. Begin the day with coffee by the lake, enjoy dinner outside, or settle in beside the fire beneath the evening sky.

Lakefront living from morning to night.
Launch a kayak or paddleboard, swim, fish, relax along the shoreline, or simply watch the changing light across Lake Steilacoom. Haven’s shared waterfront grounds and amenities give you room to explore, while Little Leaf remains your own intimate home base.

Thoughtfully equipped for a seamless stay.
Fast WiFi, air conditioning, a smart TV and sound system, in-cottage washer and dryer, quality linens, plush towels, elevated toiletries, a private entrance, free parking, and Level 2 EV charging bring modern convenience to the cottage experience.

Hi, I’m Lisa — a Lakewood local, real estate professional, and lover of thoughtfully designed spaces with soul. My husband and I have spent years restoring and curating homes that feel warm, elevated, peaceful, and deeply connected to the beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Hosting has become one of my favorite creative outlets. I genuinely love creating spaces where people can slow down, reconnect, celebrate, rest, and feel inspired — whether that’s through cozy textures, thoughtful details, morning coffee with a water view, or simply the feeling of being cared for during your stay. Our properties are intentionally designed to feel less like rentals and more like personal retreats. We care deeply about cleanliness, comfort, communication, and creating a seamless experience for our guests. From romantic getaways to restorative weekends and longer stays, it means a lot to us when guests choose our homes to be part of their memories. When I’m not hosting or working in real estate, you’ll usually find me designing spaces, spending time by the water, traveling, gardening, or dreaming up the next restoration project. We’re so happy you’re here and hope your stay feels restorative, memorable, and a little magical.
