Here in the country you will enjoy quiet, peace & solitude. Geo Cache, Treasure Hunt Adventure, 9 hole mini golf, swim, fish, hike, snowshoe, relax, bird watch, star gaze & view wildlife. We live on the property, but will respect how much interaction you want. Referred to by visitors as a spiritual sanctuary, come relax and destress.
The space
**PLEASE NOTE*** AWD, 4x4 or chains required in winter months, sometimes late fall and early spring!! We have a short, but steep hill.

The Aeneas Valley (pronounced ē knee us) will capture your heart and spirit, it is a magical valley that is quite breathtaking with it's majestic pines, snow covered mountains, creeks, rivers & lakes. The cottage has 2 bedrooms: 1 queen & 1 single bed, a comfy futon in the living area and 1 bathroom. Please note: Both bedrooms have heavy curtains for doors. The single bedroom is shared with the hot water heater, washer & dryer, and electrical panel. The fireplace is electric. The futon is a double bed and we have a memory foam topper for you to put on it, making it even more comfy. There is a fully stocked kitchen, BBQ, and fire pit. Pets are not allowed.

We have a brand new 9 hole miniature golf course! It’s fun and challenging for the whole family. Please watch kids and be respectful. Closed during winter due to snow load.

The main house can be seen from the cottage, but there is lots of privacy between the two. We stay to ourselves and let you set the parameters on how much interaction you would like with us. You may see us outside performing normal chores and maintenance from time to time. Please feel free to come over and say hi or let us know how you are doing and if you need anything.

The Cottage is just miles from national forest, 26 miles to Tonasket & 41 to Republic and is close to Sitzmark ski area, Canada and lots of lakes. A great hopping off point for many recreational activities. The Aeneas Valley store is just one and a half miles away and will have about anything you might need, including Not Doug’s Cafe and Espresso (fabulous food).

Feel free to fish for trout in our river (current license required), swim, hike or picnic, anywhere on our 45 acres. There is a public Geo Cache on the property. Partake in our Treasure Hunt Adventure, hike from clue to clue and find the treasure at the end! (A real take-home treasure) (Sturdy hiking shoes recommended… this is a hike and not a quick, simple walk. There are simple walks on the property....) Fire pit open unless a fire ban is on. Wood provided.

We have THE coolest sled hill ever! With no close neighbors, quiet, serenity and peace are yours to enjoy. Great getaway for writers and artists too! We have 2 pair of snowshoes to lend you, and a few sleds..

***4x4, AWD or chains may be required in winter months, late fall or early spring. We have a short, but steep hill just before you get to the cottage.***

Peaceful retreat

It was quiet, relaxing and fun. The property is gorgeous, the treasure hunt was great fun as well as the putt putt golf. Star gazing from the hot tub was awesome. Walking the river and enjoying the beach there was tranquil. Everyone in the community was very nice and friendly with plenty of things to do and see.

Nice Getaway

My family and I had a good time. A beautiful property with fun for the kids. A good property to walk around and stretch the legs. The hot tub under the stars is the highlight! A little close to the main house for privacy, but a very nice and inviting host.

Beautiful little cottage, lots to do on the property- our boys loved the mini golf and splashing in the river. It was very rugged terrain, but well maintained and the hot tub was the perfect way to end the day!

A little underwhelming.

It was smaller than I expected. I didn’t realize that the main house was just across the yard. The miniature golf course was fun. There was a nice variety of games in the house. The grounds were beautiful and the treasure hunt sounded fun. We didn’t use the hot tub because it was in clear view of the main house and we prefer privacy.

Beautiful place to stay

This was a truly amazing property. The treasure hunt was a blast and a great way to get to know the land! It’s quite a massive property and offers so much space for exploration. The hosts are very kind and welcoming. You also need to check out the nearby restaurant “not Doug’s” - the food is delicious and the owners are so lovely. There is so much to do on the property, so you’ll never be board even though it’s far from any large towns!

Amazing getaway

It was an amazing time! The peace and quite is unmatchable. The beauty of this place is breathtaking. We definitely enjoyed our time while staying at the cozy cottage. The locals are so kind and dont forget to stop by Not dougs southern kitchen. The breakfast is scrumptious and the strawberry shakes are the best we've ever had!

About the host

Hosted by Rick & Valerie Braman

Host profile image
We have 4 adult children and 8 grandchildren. We love to camp, hike, snow shoe and fish. We love taking care of our 45 acres and the gorgeous river on the property. We enjoy reading in the winter while drinking mocha's in front of the cozy fire. We rely on peace, quiet and serenity to stay grounded. Life is too short not to live everyday like it's your last.

Why they chose this property

This property is very unique in that it has privacy, seclusion and peace. With loads of things to do like mini golf, treasure hunt, fish, geo cache, hiking, snowshoeing, you would never need to leave the property. If relaxing under the stars in the hot tub or reading a book by the river are your thing, we've got that too! With many, many pristine mountain lakes and streams in the area, this is a great base to fish, hunt, hike and explore. Nearby ghost towns, wineries, ski hills and museum are great way to explore the area even more!

What makes this property unique

The most relaxing and fun property all in one! So quiet your ears ring!
