Escape to this designer 4 br/3 bath lodge with outdoor hot tub and fireplace on a private drive, bordered by 20k acres of public land and miles of hiking/biking trails, streams, lakes, and forest. Lounge with family and friends around the Great Room fireplace, the large designer "live edge" dining table, and in the new chef's kitchen. Rest and restore in the peaceful valulted-ceiling master bedroom with rain shower.
The space
Best for families and small groups looking for a quiet, secluded escape close to nature.
The Great Room features heavy beams, vaulted ceilings, barnwood accents, and fireplace. The newly-renovated chefs kitchen has granite countertops, and plenty of appliances. The dining room features a 12-foot designer “live edge” table and a breakfast bar. The second family room features a wet bar, fireplace and a 65” TV. The large master suite has vaulted ceilings, expansive views of the creek, en-suite bathroom with rain shower, and private deck. The downstairs bedroom has its own bathroom, while the two upstairs bedrooms share a huge, beautiful bathroom with vaulted ceiling, soaking tub, and steam shower.
Outside, you’ll find a large deck, grill, outdoor fireplace, hot tub, seasonal stream, hammock, and several outdoor seating areas.
Guest access
Guests will have the whole, secluded getaway to themselves!
Other things to note
A FEW THINGS TO NOTE so you can plan accordingly: the house has rural broadband suitable for WiFi calling, streaming, email, browsing, etc but there is no cell phone service in the valley. The upstairs 3 bedrooms have A/C and the rest of the house has portable fans. We love and welcome kids, but the house is not kid-proofed. The house is not a full-time rental property, so it has a "staying at a friend's home" feel - it's cleaned and stocked for each guest, but also contains some of our personal belongings. We do our best to manage pests, but given the location, wild animals of all sizes are to be expected on the property.
