Yakima Riverfront Cabin - Cle Elum, WA

If you're looking to get away for a weekend or week, this all-season two-level cabin mountain cabin has plenty of space and amenities needed for a wonderful stay. Located in the Heart of the Cascades, your retreat is situated on a 1-acre, wooded lot close to Interstate 90, with private access to the beautiful upper Yakima River!

Indoors, you will find an open floor plan with floor-to-ceiling windows that let you admire the forest views. Enjoy the convenience of ample amenities and technology including a full kitchen, two bathrooms, a washer/dryer, high-speed WiFi, a smart TV and a DVD player for entertainment (bring your own movies), and comfortable sleeping arrangements - all while maintaining a rustic, cabin feel. With a variety of games, books, puzzles, cards, and a bumper pool table that converts into a felt card table, there is plenty of fun to be had.

Outside, there are furnished front and back decks with a BBQ for outdoor dining, and a lawn for games. On occasion, you can spot wandering deer or wild turkeys. You will also have direct access to the river from the property, just 300 feet from the cabin down a lovely, wooded path.

In the summer, enjoy ample activities on-site including rafting (bring tubes and rafts if you want to float) and fly fishing (be sure to keep a permit handy). Come winter, you can enjoy the riverfront firepit for marshmallow roasting. Or, perhaps you want to sit and see if you can spot the resident herd of elk and other wildlife.

Nearby, you can hike The Palouse to Cascades State Park Trail, spend a day on the water at Lake Easton State Park, or take in the farmers market and outdoor concert series in Roslyn. Mountain lakes, the Washington State Horse Park, Suncadia Resort, multiple golf courses, and wine tasting are all nearby, so there is something for everyone. Downhill skiing, tubing, and Nordic skiing are a short drive away at Snoqualmie Summit. The winter months are also fantastic for snowmobiling and snowshoeing. Take a 2-hour drive to Mission Ridge Ski & Board Resort for some drier snow and bigger terrain, or visit the Bavarian village of Leavenworth.

Things to Know

• The kitchen is ready for all of your cooking, baking, and beverage needs and includes a refrigerator with ice-maker, stove/oven, dishwasher, microwave, a full selection of pots and pans, dishware, serving ware, coffee maker and mini-Keurig, crockpot, toaster, and assorted cooking and baking utensils. A refurbished buffet/bar is well stocked with assorted wine and cocktail glasses for those special celebrations. You don’t need to bring a thing except your food! (Safeway is just 10 minutes away in Cle Elum.)
• In the winter, we try to keep the driveway plowed and the stairs shoveled before you arrive, but snow can be unpredictable so 4-wheel drive is always a good thing in the mountains in the winter. A snow shovel and snow-melting salt are available just inside the breezeway door if it snows while you are there.
