About this property

CABIN LOOKING ACROSS THE SKY RIVER AT THE WILD SKY WILDERNESS

  • OUR CABIN SITS ON THE BANK OF THE S. FORK OF THE SKYKOMISH/TYE RIVER WITH A SWEEPING NATURAL VIEW ACROSS THE RIVER CHANNEL OF 5,000' BECKLER PEAK AND THE WILD SKY WILDERNESS in Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. Nearby activities include hiking, biking, rafting & kayaking, rock climbing, birdwatching, mushrooming, exploring the lakes and waterfalls and historic areas around Stevens Pass, historic Skykomish and Index, or just relaxing to the sound of the river or a crackling fire.

    THIS CABIN IS CUTE AND PERFECT FOR 1-3 COUPLES OR A FAMILY TO GET AWAY FROM IT ALL! The living area is bright and cheery, with lots of windows looking across the river to the mountain wilderness beyond. The hardwood floors and wood paneling give the place a rustic feel, and you'll love curling up in front of the fire on our comfy leather furniture for conversation, a glass of wine, or a good book or a movie. The living room opens to a deck on the river bank with a table and six chairs and a gas BBQ to facilitate outdoor meals or projects. The dining area views the greenery and the river by day or a roaring fire at night, and is perfect for after-dinner games or even doing a little work using our high-speed internet access & wifi. The fully equipped kitchen is newly updated to feature modern appliances and a beautiful granite countertop so that guests can visit while the chef prepares the feast.

    The three bedrooms each feature a queen-size bed, reading lamp(s) and a dresser and/or closet for storage, and a couple of airbeds can be arranged for children to sleep in their parents room if desired. The main bathroom downstairs has a double sink separated from the toilet & shower, with beautiful stone tile and a luxurious heated floor throughout. Another half-bath and toilet are upstairs. The mudroom is perfect for washing and/or drying wet or muddy clothing after a day out-of-doors, and includes a full washer-dryer.

    Enjoy a BBQ on the deck or an evening campfire under the stars, listening to the river.

    Wildlife lovers will enjoy an ever-changing 'show' starring the occasional Bald Eagle or Osprey, wild ducks (harlequins, mergansers and wood ducks), water ouzels, swallows, swifts, nighthawks, etc., and laugh as the Rufous Hummingbirds joust for territory and mates. Squirrels, chipmunks, and racoons live on the property and at various times Black Bears, Coyotes, Otters, Mink, Beaver and Deer have visited, and we regularly observe coho salmon spawn in the channel in front of our cabin. Early spring is especially nice if you like hummingbirds, frog choruses, and native wildflowers.

    Reservations are accepted from non-smokers only as our home is a smoke free environment, and damage penalties will be assessed for non-compliance. Pets are fine, and there is a nice stake-out area.

Perfect little first getaway with our one month old baby. We stayed in the bedroom downstairs to be closest to the bathroom and kitchen and that bedroom had space for our travel crib. We spent most of the time out on the back deck listening to the river or walking around the neighborhood, exploring the various paths down to the water. We drove into town for coffee one morning which was great. We loved that this spot was casual, dog friendly, and quiet. Would definitely stay again!

Amazing location on the river

The Sky River cabin was exactly what we were looking for for a long weekend. Easy river access, very peaceful, and great views from the cabin. George and Pat were extremely helpful with their communication and had lots of recommendations for hikes in the area. I would definitely stay again next time I'm in the area

Vacation with elderly parents

Overall the cabin is very rustic. I think it is geared toward more able body people. Master bed is higher than normal, couch and chairs in living room are lower than normal but comfortable. This is not meant as a negative, the place is very cozy. George and Pat are very nice and helpful. You should try this place if you don't have any physical issues.

Read all details before staying.

Our two nights with 4 people and 2 dogs was very expensive for what was offered in my opinion. The photos do not show that on either side of the cabin there are cabins, you can see the decks and hear people chatting. I’m not sure if the property listing changed later on because none of us saw anything about a shared hot tub or fire pit. I contacted the owners that were nice enough about it and said they weren’t going to use it, but none of us felt comfortable walking over in bathing suits to sit in front of their cabin/deck, and this was a pretty big bummer. Also, in the cabin’s info booklet it stated you couldn’t use it after 10:30pm FYI. Like the other comments said, the river is quite far away from the cabin, you get peekaboo views and you can walk down from the community access down the road. You can hear the river with the windows and doors open and it’s very relaxing. There is a drop off about 5 feet from the deck to more stagnate water, scared me when our dog got too close. We cook fairly large meals, glad I read another post about the lack of kitchen pots and pans, they are all tiny and we brought our own as well as tongs and what not. The beds were comfy but no curtains on the upstairs bed facing the river. Heat works and a nice fireplace. Plenty of room for 6 people. We had a good time overall but probably would pick a cabin next time with more privacy.

Cozy rustic lil cabin

We had a lovely stay at this cabin! The owners were extremely communicative with the local wildfires throwing a wrench in our original plans, and were very accommodating and flexible with dates and times as we were trying to work around the Highway 2 closure. The cabin is super cozy and very peaceful. We didn't even need to light a fire in the fireplace because the cabin retains heat so well. The box fans in the bedrooms were perfect! The downstairs bathroom is wonderful with a heat fan and good ventilation. Kitchen was well stocked and had pretty much everything we needed. Be sure to bring some unsalted peanuts, as there are a few sets of Steller's Jays that wait patiently every morning for goodies at the bird feeder on the back porch :) The only tiny nitpicks were that the bedrooms upstairs had several cobwebs and spiders we ran into while walking into the rooms and a couple dead bugs here and there on linens so it seems like no one had stayed up there in a bit. The only other thing is the pillows are all super thin, so if you get neck pain like I do, be sure to bring your own! All in all a very relaxing and lovely stay!

Little Details, Big View

This rental is part of a community of cabins, many of them also rentals, but the property owners have let the trees grow up between the properties so that we hardly knew anyone was next door. And yet the shrubs were cut back for a beautiful and serene view off the porch. We could see the mountains when the clouds cleared and see/hear the river rapids across the wildflower meadow. This felt like a cabin, and yet the property owners have taken time to make sure it is completely comfortable. We appreciated the motion-detector nightlight in the bathrooms, every bedroom had a box fan available in the closet, and directions about the care of the property were clear and helpful. Some rentals leave the guests with a long to-do list upon checkout, and we were not asked to do anything we wouldn't ask guests in our own home to do. The property owners have also left a HUGE binder of things to do with all the details a person would need. We enjoyed Deception Falls, coffee in Skykomish, and skipping stones in the river. It was a great trip!

What can you say about a two-story A-frame cabin on the river in the woods secluded away from all that stupid Society offers. Amazing just like it's supposed to be........

Awesome cabin for a longer weekend, so quiet with a beautiful view.

We stayed for a long weekend hoping to get away from the fireworks in the city. The host confirmed that there was a fireworks ban in the community, and it was enforced. We never heard even 1 firework go off! Some of the reviews of this place are complaining about privacy and rowdy neighbors... if you keep in mind that you are staying at a cabin, next to other cabins, there will be other people (it's not a rustic cabin in the middle of nowhere!!). We were there on the 4th and things were very low key. Other people were out grilling with their family or drinking with their friends on their own porches. The property has nice natural bushes and trees as barriers, it's not a hedge wall that you can't see through, but unless people are crawling into the bushes to peek through... it's private! The complaints about how far away the water is also silly, of course you can't jump off the back porch into the river in the summer... It was a 5 minute walk from the house down a quiet road and down a nice wooded trail where there were 2 picnic tables and a BBQ. The kitchen is freshly re-done, new appliances and everything worked well. The only slightly misleading thing from the post was the fire pit, it really is just a fire pit in the bushes between the 2 houses. Unless you are friends with the people next door, you probably won't be sitting out there. We will be back next year!
