THINGS TO KNOW
The Skykomish and the North Central Cascades are a historic area for the Great Northern Railroad, built between 1889-1903 by John Frank Stevens, for whom Stevens Pass was named. Trains still pass through the area to this day, creating occasional noise as they pass through the area. Most guests find this a charming aspect of the home and the area. We provide earplugs as a courtesy for any sensitive guests.

Summary: This cabin will definitely give you the cozy experience of a cabin, kitchen is nice and has everything you need, the location and view is perfect! It also has a gated entrance to the neighborhood so it gives you the extra sense of security. Hottub was perfect and the interior of the cabin was great too.

Summary: The location of this little cabin is beautiful. River view. Bridge view. Mountain View’s. The cabin itself left much to be desired. I’ll preface this next part with this. I've stayed in a lot of rentals and I’m not a picky or high maintenance person. This was probably the worst appointed rental I’ve ever been in. We were there for 3 nights. They left us a half roll of paper towels and 1 dish towel. Housekeeping did bring us more paper towels after I texted Vacasa. The oven was dirty, disgusting in fact. The kitchen was not well stocked at all. Most of the dishes had chips in them. I could go on. But there’s more. There were no instructions in the cabin or online for any of the other amenities. Nothing for the hot tub, fireplace or TV. The description says there’s a full library of movies. They were all play station games. The satellite was not hooked up so even if we wanted to watch something that was not an option. There were no extra blankets. Just the comforter on the bed. The loft was too scary & small to even go up into. The toilet seat was broken. We kept having to hook it back on so we wouldn’t fall off. The yard was basic. And based on the pictures it looked like you could easy access the water. You can’t. You have to scale down some large boulders before getting to even ground beside the water. This cabin could be an amazing little place with just a little bit of updating and love. Felt pretty deceived by the pictures.

Summary: We loved the river and enjoyed the hot tub. The house needs work. It was clean, but worn out. The water pressure in the shower was terrible. The flooring was really worn out too. The yard needs to be mowed. Overall it needs a lot of TLC.

Summary: Beautiful river views from the windows, the hot tub worked great and felt decently private (although you can see the neighbors a bit on either side of the privacy screen), and it was nice that it is close enough to stores. Inside was very clean and cozy other than the dishwasher. It was covered in mold and was also broken (only had the top pull out section), which was pretty gross and called into question the cleanliness of the dishes. Other than that, the bed was pretty comfortable, they had thoughtful equipment available for pet owners, and they had plenty of towels and good guest instructions. There were no dinner knives and the kitchen equipment is pretty limited so keep that in mind (only have one oven baking pan, no foil/parchment paper, etc), but did come stocked with helpful things like wine/beer openers, a microwave, coffee pot, etc. The road is decently busy and in view of certain angles, but inside the cabin you can hear zero noise which is nice, and the river sound distracts while outside. As mentioned in other reviews, it's a bit of a dicey walk to the river directly out of the cabin, but we walked about 15 minutes down the road to a parking area and walked along the river a bit from there.

Summary: The views are amazing! The home was clean and charming, with just a few small issues. The fire pit and chairs were perfect and the hot tub was a toasty 104 and ready when we arrived. River access was challenging as described. The pine smell was amazing but the river sounds competed with the constant semi traffic on the nearby freeway (which echoed across the river) and the passing trains. It is in a gated community which is nice, with close but unobtrusive neighbors. The mattress in the main bedroom wasn't great and the loft was really only fit for grade school age...old enough to climb a ladder but not so big that you will bonk your head repeatedly (like my slender 5'3 teen did). Overall glad I booked. We made many great memories!

Summary: This was a wonderful little stay for us. We stayed 2 nights and found the peace we were looking for. Unfortunately, we did lock ourselves out the first night...and barely remembered the door code, and there were damp, dirty towels behind the front door forgotten from the cleaning, but neither of those dampened our wonderful experience. We would love to return when the river is a bit lower too to walk around a bit. Wonderful trip!
