We absolutely adored staying here for our daughter’s 4th birthday getaway. It was so very aesthetically pleasing. Beautiful cabin in the forest. The bottom floor was perfectly open for my daughter to run around and play with her toys. The wood burning stove was the icing on top. So magical! Can’t wait to come back!
Brought flowers from our family farm. The cabin is too gorgeous not to use as a backdrop!

Quiet retreat

This comfortable cozy cabin was a perfect place to unwind. We were able to take many hikes and enjoy the scenery, with beautiful vistas , picturesque mountains, and sparkling waterfalls. We took advantage of the nearby river where we leisurely floated in the cool waters.

Dog friendly. River is two minutes away (walking). Take the path to the right - more sand than rocks. Easy to find. Great location to check out Skyomish, Index, Deception Falls and many trails. Host was prompt to answer any questions.

Lovely girls trip getaway

This cabin was absolutely perfect. It was clean, easy to get to, and surrounded by beautiful mountains and the Skykomish river. Becca was very responsive and the directions/ house rules were all clear and easy to follow. I would definitely stay here again!! The king bed upstairs was very comfortable, as was the queen downstairs. The hot tub was lovely after a hike and the sauna was such a treat!!

So peaceful! Plenty of space for two couples and two dogs had a blast. The community beach was just a short walk and very pretty. We enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit and sauna very much. The beds were comfy. Only thing I would say is the upstairs bedroom gets very bright in the morning. Bring a sleep.mask if you are sensitive to that. Worked for me! Plenty of towels and a well stocked kitchen. We would definitely rent again!

A quaint cabin perfect for our ski trip

I would highly recommend this cabin. It is super-spacious, very well equipped, with high quality amenities. The log fire is cosy, and the hot tub and sauna an unexpected luxury. We stayed for 3 nights to go skiing at Steven's Pass over Christmas, an easy 30mins drive away. Becca, the host was very attentive with and very quick to respond to queries. We almost didn't book as there were only a handful of reviews - don't let that put you off!

Ideal cabin vacation

Had such a lovely long weekend stay with my spouse and our dog. The property was as advertised and we would certainly stay again. Things to know for prospective visitors: property provides firewood for woodstove or outside fire pit, but no newspaper, kindling, no hatchet etc. the wood was slightly damp, so impossible to light without help. Bring some paper or cardboard with you to enjoy the full woodstove cabin experience.I did not take off a star because the place was so awesome, but the one downfall was the showers/sinks having poor drainage. The downstairs tub/shower was the worst of them and left you standing in shin deep water while showering which felt gross. We just used the upstairs shower which was not as bad. The back sliding door is REALLY hard to open and close, had to have my husband do it for me. If these two issues were remedied, the place would be perfect. I still give it 5/5. It was lovely and every house has its own quirks.It was well stocked and had many thoughtful additions for things you may need were there. I would recommend this place to a friend. Very nice, especially considering they allow dogs. The place felt clean and private.

Response from VrboOwner on 4 Mar, 2025
Andrea, thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for bringing these concerns to our attention. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience with the shower drainage and the sliding door. Unfortunately, a previous guest had clogged the drains without us being aware, which caused the backup during your stay. As soon as you notified us, we had a plumber come out, and both showers are now fully fixed. Additionally, the last guest had knocked the sliding door off track, but thanks to your feedback, we were able to get it repaired after Thursday. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, and we’re so glad you enjoyed your stay despite these unexpected issues. We’d love to host you again anytime and assure you that these items have been immediately addressed. Thank you again for your kindness and for being such a great guest!

About the host

Hosted by Becca

Host profile image
Hey! I'm originally from Homer, Alaska and have lived in Seattle since 2008. I love to travel and enjoy a mix of exploration / adventure and relaxation wherever I go. Experiences are everything and that's why I became a host - to create and provide beautiful spaces for cherished memories. I love unique spas and feel self care is a significant part of life.

Chasing the sun and spending time outdoors with my dog Ruby is a must in my life. She inspired the Wild Dog Cabin and reminds me to play every day. I hope you enjoy staying at our rental!

Why they chose this property

Growing up the woods of Alaska, I always knew I wanted to own a cabin. When I moved to Seattle and began to explore the beautiful depths of Highway 2. I fell in love with its serenity. The rushing waters of the Skykomish River, the snow peaked mountains during the winter, and summertime hiking adventures of numerous nearby trails. When I found this cabin, I knew it was meant to be. I embarked on a 7+ month long extensively remodel to transform the space into a design forward, cozy, luxe cabin of my dreams to share with others. I set out to keep the original cabin charm with exposed beams, but elevate the space with luxury finishes. I wanted to create an experience for the dreamers looking to escape into the woods, with focus on self care and reflection. We all need inner peace and I promise you'll find it here. We're so happy you found us!
