We love the peacefulness of the river and hot tub. Always a joy to stay here.

A beautiful cabin, but be warned: the stairs to the beds are very very steep and a bit treacherous. Gorgeous location.

My stay was just what I needed! A peaceful place with beautiful scenery and a great place to unplug.

The cabin had really good vibes with the river right in front. You could hear the river upstairs which was very nice. The bed was comfy and the wood stove was amazing. There were some discrepancies in the posting vs. the messages we received from the host for pet charges, check in and check out instructions, which made it less seamless.

Great spot to stay for our first trip to North Cascades NP. Quite a peaceful place with the flowing river outdoors. Hot tub was a nice bonus after a long day hike to Cascade Pass. Would definitely stay here again when we get back up this way.

"We loved our stay at this picture-perfect cabin! The location is incredible, and little details like the indoor fireplace added so much charm. Navigating the stairs with a baby was a minor challenge, but everything else was wonderful. Highly recommended!"

The cabin, service and communication was perfect in every way. We enjoyed the amenities and the cabin was well stocked. The only thing that took away from the experience was the foul sulfur smell from the tap which is fed by a well. We had to use bottled water for cooking, coffee/ tea and even brushing our teeth. We strongly recommend that the host make the effort to treat or filter the water to improve the quality of the water.

This is a cozy A-frame cabin with every amenity you need for a comfortable stay. Well-equipped kitchen and bathroom. Peaceful surroundings and private access to the river. We loved hearing the sound of the river from the hot tub and bedroom. The narrow stairs to the bedrooms is manageable but I would not recommend for children or anyone with mobility issues.
