About this property

Luxury Forest Escape with Fire Pit and Waterfall and Private Decks• Near Seattle

Escape to a luxury forest retreat nestled among towering Douglas firs on Squak Mountain. Wake to birdsong, enjoy your morning coffee on your private cedar deck, and unwind beside a tranquil koi pond and cascading waterfall—all less than a mile from charming downtown Issaquah and just 20 minutes from Seattle.

The beautifully remodeled south guest suite features a private entrance, dedicated on site parking, a cedar deck with outdoor dining, a fully equipped kitchen, radiant heated floors, and thoughtfully designed spaces that invite you to relax. Floor-to-ceiling windows create the feeling of living among the trees in every season.

Thoughtfully designed and lovingly maintained, our Guest Favorite retreat has earned exceptional guest reviews from travelers seeking a peaceful Pacific Northwest escape.

Miles of scenic hiking trails are just minutes away, making this an ideal base for exploring the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest.

Although attached to our home, the guest suite is entirely separate and designed to provide a quiet, private stay. Guests are welcome to enjoy the shared gardens, koi pond, waterfall, and fire pit. The owners’ north patio, grill, and outdoor living area are reserved for our private use.

Please note: Our home features cherished antiques, original artwork, water features, and a beautiful historic stained-glass window. Because it has not been childproofed and contains several delicate features, it is best suited for adults and older children who will appreciate its peaceful setting.

Your own private luxury forest retreat, where the soothing sound of a waterfall, towering evergreens, and beautifully landscaped gardens create a peaceful getaway just minutes from Seattle. Relax by the fire pit under the stars, enjoy coffee on the deck surrounded by nature, and unwind in a warm, beautifully designed home that feels worlds away from the city while remaining close to Issaquah, hiking trails, wineries, restaurants and the Pacific Northwest.

About the host

Hosted by Heather or Daniel

Host profile image
We’re Daniel and Heather, longtime Issaquah residents with a shared love of travel, design, nature, and welcoming people from around the world. Together, we’ve explored more than 100 countries and built and renovated four vacation homes.

Daniel is a retired software engineer whose adventures include spending an unforgettable year working at the South Pole. Heather is a singer, pianist, and cruise-ship headliner who has performed around the world and at legendary venues including Carnegie Hall and Jazz at Lincoln Center.

We’ve brought the spirit of our travels into each home, decorating with art, furnishings, and special pieces collected from around the world. Our travels and building projects have taught us that the most memorable stays combine comfort, thoughtful details, beautiful surroundings, and a genuine sense of welcome. We hope you’ll feel right at home during your stay.

Why they chose this property

We chose Squak Mountain for its beautiful surroundings and its ideal location near downtown Issaquah and close proximity to Seattle. The home sits on one and a half acres beneath towering 100-foot fir trees, where deer and other wildlife are frequent visitors. A koi pond, cascading waterfall, and gas fire pit create a truly one-of-a-kind setting in the heart of Issaquah.

The property is also close to all the site seeing in the Seattle area and several scenic trailheads, including the trail to Debbie’s View, where hikers are rewarded with a glorious view of Mount Rainier on a clear day.

What makes this property unique

Nature is woven into everyday life here at Chez Squak. We designed our homes to embrace the forest, with expansive windows that frame the trees, cedar decks that extend the living spaces outdoors, and peaceful areas to gather beside the koi pond, waterfall, and fire pit. Whether we’re watching deer pass through the property, listening to birds in the canopy, or enjoying the changing seasons, we never take the beauty of Squak Mountain for granted.
