Buy a mobile home in a Lake Cushman subdivision, and live like the locals live: the good life.
Overview of the Area
Lake Cushman is a 4,014-acre lake that sits just outside the southern entrance of the Olympic National Park at Staircase. It is arguably the absolute best place to buy a mobile home in Mason County, and to buy a mobile home in a Lake Cushman subdivision is even better.
It is mountain-living at its finest, and buyers who can secure a mobile home at Lake Cushman are among the lucky ones, as the area’s two lakes, golf course, parks, and a National Park for a neighbor, make deciding what type of recreation you should fill your day with the question of the hour.
Dam History
On March 23, 1926, President Calvin Coolidge pressed a button during a ceremony at the White House. He activated, for the first time, Cushman Dam No. 1, a project that began in 1919. At times, over 500 men worked on the project commissioned by Tacoma Power, a division of Tacoma Public Utilities a municipally-owned entity responsible for powering the metropolis of Tacoma, some 40 miles away.
Subdivision Creation
The 23 miles of shoreline that surrounds Lake Cushman is sprinkled with dwellings of all types, from cabins to expansive second homes, to RV’s and tiny houses, and of course, is a great place to buy a mobile home in a Lake Cushman subdivision.
There are 24 of them that were platted in the 1960s by property owner, Tacoma Power. The utility company leases the land to homeowners and recreational lot enthusiasts in a 99-year lease. The utility company hasn’t said what will become of the land when the lease is up in

started scratching things off of your Very Best of Lake Cushman Bucket List
Get on the Boat
You’re going to want to quickly “get on the boat” to buy a mobile home at a Lake Cushman subdivision, because, shoppers, that ship is about to set sail. With so much to do, so many hikes to take, and boats to captain, this area of glimmering water, towering trees, and fresh mountain air is one for the record books. And whether you snuggle up on your couch to see whatever became of Antlers, or lay down in your bed and listen to sounds of the forest at night, Lake Cushman is, for sure, the place that your dreams will be made of.
Antler’s Lodge
A little-known fact about Lake Cushman is that during the formation of the dam, The Antlers Hotel that sat along the shoreline of the natural lake, was sunk.
The Antlers Hotel was constructed of hewed logs, had large bay windows, and a rustic, yet elegant interior. It was a dream realized by wealthy east coast native, Russel Homan who went into business with his friend Stanley Hopper to build an exclusive resort and the Antlers Hotel.
Olympic National Park
If you stay on 119 and don’t turn off into one of the subdivisions, the paved road will eventually fade into gravel that skirts along the eastern shore of Lake Cushman, and then eventually the Skokomish River, until you reach Staircase. This southernmost entrance of Olympic National Park at Staircase has a campground with 47 non-reservable sites. A cathedral of Douglas Firs and verdant hanging moss punctuate the landscape of old-growth forest
