This cabin is a true nature loverâs paradise! With stunning views of Mount Index and the majestic peaks of the Wild Sky Wilderness, every window frames a perfect picture. Its unique location offers exceptional privacy being situated on two lots, and makes it feel like your own secluded retreat. During the rainy season, a creek even flows through the property, adding to the natural beauty of the area. We take pride in our cleanliness and creating an exceptional guest experience. We look forward to having the opportunity to host you at our cabin!
A very good place to stay, Iâm already thinking of coming back - amazing view right from the property, everything is clean, interior is fresh, also, hot tub, sauna, grill, and fire pit - all in very good condition! and even some baby-proofing!There has been a couple of smaller issues like toilet tank sometimes failing to fill up or hot tub filters temporary issue. However, the host, Nate, was very responsive, he helped us, and was very nice to talk to. These things were minor and hadnât influence our stay much, so Iâd definitely recommend the place!
We loved this cabin! The views we woke up to were amazing. My husband and I enjoyed the sauna every morning before our coffee which was the perfect way to start the day. We did a day trip to Leavenworth and other spots to hike. Highly recommend this cabin as the host was also very accommodating.
We loved this cabin! Saving it to come back in the future. Hosts were responsive and helpful. Cabin was clean and well stocked. Thoughtful touches thru out, such as pet/baby gates inside on the stairs and blocking off the porch exits.
What a dreamy location to stay in such a cozy home! Our stay had everything we needed and more. Nate was communicative and attentive, highly recommend staying!
This cabin was everything we imagined! My boyfriend and I took 3 days off to spend two nights in this lovely cabin and it was the perfect time to detach from our lives and slow down a little bit. The mountain scape and the river are breath-taking. You can see and/or hear the river from every inch of the property. The kitchen was perfectly stocked, we made breakfast and grilled one evening and had everything we needed. The hottub and fire pit also added another quality time and activity we could enjoy together. Have you ever sat in a steamy tub while watching the river go by and admiring the snowy mountains cape? The property had plenty of space to explore, the beds were heavenly comfy. We had a comfy cozy movie night and threw rocks in the river from the platform below the gazebo at water level: we loved it and canât wait to come back!
I stayed at this house with my family that included two adults and two children. Pros:-Absolutely stunning location-House is cozy and well laid outCons:-It's not very private: many houses nearby and across river-The water in the house went out around 10 pm one night. Nathan was responsive but we spent 1.5 hrs getting water back. Nathan offered to have someone come or teach us how. The water for the home is pulled from the river. The river was low and the pipe to pull the water was exposed and thus, shut the pump down. In order to get water back into the house (so we could use the bathroom in this not-very-secluded area), my husband had to climb down a sketchy ladder to get to the river and walk into the river about waist-deep in order to effectively re-submerge the pipe. Then Nathan walked us through how to restart the pump. During this exchange, it became clear that this is a recurring problem. Although we understand that river levels can change, we lost our patience and understanding once we learned that this was a known problem. My husband happens to work in the water industry and knows how to restructure this system so that this problem does not keep occurring. We expect functional water systems when we rent a property. I am thankful that I do not have mobility issues nor was I traveling alone with children. These circumstances would have made fixing the water myself challenging. We rented this property after a stressful winter and wanted to relax...not work.
Iâve stayed at plenty of VRBOâs in the past in Washington and this one by far surpasses any that I have stayed in! The details matter, and they thought of everything for our stay. The check in process was very easy to use and we didnât have any problem getting into the location. I went with my two kids for college visits and we purposely stayed a little further out so that they could see a little bit of what Washington has to offer and man were. They impressed too. You are still close enough to Seattle if youâre wanting to have that city life visit, but if youâre looking to relax and have an enjoyable time with your family and disconnect this is the place for you! I canât wait for us to be back in the summer and see what beauty holds then. We did have a rainy day there, but itâs still was beautiful. I felt very safe and secure in the location as well as you have to have a code to get into the âsubdivisionâ. My kid said that this was the best place that we stayed out during our whole visit and I definitely agree with them. The host were very nice and very responsive, which is refreshing to see. The hot tub was a great bonus on a rainy day. We sadly were not able to do the fire pit, but we definitely took advantage of the hot tub. Definitely a 10 out of 10 for us. Secretly, Iâm sad to share this amazing visit we had here as it just means more people will be going and harder to book. Fall was beautiful and the summer visit we do I sure will be just as beautiful.
Nate and Kels are from Seattle are from Seattle area. We really wish we lived close to the cabin to have more interactions with our guest. We really love to travel ourselves and always have our next destination on our minds.
You can't get any closer to the river. There are views of Mt Index on one side of the house, and views of Gunn Peak and the Wild Sky Wilderness over the unobstructed Skykomish river on the other. You feel as if you are out in the wilderness all alone with the size of the property and secluded nature. We offer indoor and outdoor wood burning options to set the tone of the cabin stay. Two lawns gives plenty of room for yard games or for the pups to enjoy. Both the deck and gazebo hang over the rivers edge, it's breathtaking!
