About this property

Historic 1906 Grand Farmhouse in Cashmere's scenic Brender Canyon on 20 acres

This beautiful and fully restored 118-year-old farmhouse, built by one of the original pioneers in the Wenatchee Valley, is situated on 23 private acres in Brender Canyon, about 20 minutes from Leavenworth. With over 3,000 sq. ft. & 3 full stories, the farmhouse includes a huge stone wood-burning fireplace, comfortable furniture, carpet, lighting, hardwood floors, new bathrooms and fixtures, flat screen TV with a large movie library, beamed ceilings, antique furniture and period pieces throughout. There is a 10-foot dining room table handmade from the 100+-year wood made available during the restoration. There's a large wrap-around front deck with outdoor furniture in most seasons.

Five full bedrooms with an outdoor screened summer sleeping porch. The former attic was completely remodeled into a modern game room & den complete with large screen TV, ping pong table, game tables, and 2 large couches. New carpet, vaulted ceilings and ceiling fan plus modern lighting is throughout. There is only partial A/C in the summer, but the huge surrounding Black Walnut trees keep the house cooler than normal. We also have fans throughout.

The real charm from this historical property is in the land and surrounding vineyard, orchards, huge Black Walnut trees, flower gardens, pristine hills for hiking. These acres adjoin Forest Service Land for a peaceful setting with elk, deer, and other wild animals always close at hand. This is the perfect family getaway for a weekend or a week with Leavenworth so close, the Columbia River for boating, and quaint & quiet Cashmere with its parks, Pioneer Museum, Aplets & Cotlets store, wineries, bakeries, restaurants, little bowling alley, and huge antique market places. The Wenatchee River is nearby for summer floating.

Please note: Also, national holidays or some festival weekends require a minimum 3-4 day booking. Up to TWO friendly dogs are permitted as long as they are not left alone inside the house or allowed on the furniture. They are not allowed in bedrooms. Significant alcohol or questionable parties are NOT permitted. Five car parking limit without prior permission. No camping, RV's, snowmobiles or ATV's are allowed. Event fees (with prior permission) may apply for groups with attendees not included in farmhouse overnight charges.

Family Christmas getaway

Nicely updated and beautifully decorated for the holidays.plenty of room for all of us. The bathrooms and kitchen were well stocked. Everything was clean with the exception of the dishes. We had to wash many of the dishes prior to use as they had stuck on food on them. One odd thing was that there 3 versions of the check out procedure. The one on the website, the one in the kitchen notebook and the one posted on the laundry room door. All in all it is a fabulous place to stay. We will book it again.

second visit this summer :)

The farmhouse is one of our favorite places to stay. We especially love the large living/entertaining areas. Room for people to be together or on your own. We wouldn't mind if the dishwasher worked better! Julie is always flexible with us. We look forward to staying again!

Perfect spot for large groups

The farmhouse was the perfect place for a friends/family gathering to celebrate a milestone birthday. There were tons of comfortable sleeping options and having a nice long table to do family style dinners was a huge plus. Great location, friendly and responsive hostss.

Perfect family weekend

We had a wonderful time in the home for our family get together. There was more space than we expected and it allowed us all to have our own space when needed. We loved that the teens could play games upstairs while the adults were on the main floor. Very well stocked! Plenty of everything for us to prepare our meals. And the manager/owner was very responsive. Loved it!! Thank you

Great location and lots of room

This place was great for our family of 9. It was very clean and had lots of room for us to spread out. Great number of bedrooms and bathrooms. Centrally located to all of the activities that we wanted to do. A big thank you to the owners for decorating for Christmas. We had a wonderful Christmas day celebration together and will always remember this time together. The kids were able to sled in the yard after getting about 4 inches of snow. Will definitely rent again if we are in the area.

Beware

This is a tough property to review, so please read thoroughly. The house itself was a solid 4-star property. It was clean, spacious, fully equipped and welcoming. The only reason I wouldn't give it a 5 is because it is 200 years old. As such, there is zero sound proofing between rooms. We had 6 adults over the age of 50. I heard every creaky, middle of the night, trip to the bathroom. Just expect that if you choose to book a stay. Although the property itself is a 4 (in my opinion), our experience was a 2 at best. Hence my overall rating of 3. The biggest issue was a rooster! We stayed 3 nights and each morning between 4:45 and 5:00am we were awakened by a rooster screeching/singing loudly. Then every 15 minutes it would repeat itself just to be sure no one got a good night sleep. I had two teenage boys with me that I can't normally wake up with a blow horn. But neither of them was able to sleep through this crazy loud bird! We requested the owner come get the rooster, but she was unable to help. At which time she informed us that it is a farm and that's what you get on a farm. To be clear, the rooster does not serve a purpose on this Farm/Vinyard. It is a prop and unnecessary. Had I known there was a chance this could be an issue, I would have never booked this property. TERRIBLE! If you want a good night sleep and the rooster is still there, I suggest looking elsewhere. If you don't mind getting up at 4:45 am while on vacation - go for it.

Great Home for our Reunion!

We brought our kids and 5 grand kids (ages 1 to 7)for our annual reunion and this house was perfect. The dining room table was big enough for everyone. They even provided a high chair. The house is stocked with everything you need from extra swimming towels to paper plates and a frog full of condiments. We stayed on a hot weekend with 5 small children. I was worried the house would be too warm to enjoy, but the shady trees kept it cool. We enjoyed the public swim pool and parks but spent most of our time together at the house. The back porch was perfect for evening adult gatherings after the kids were in bed.

Family reunion

Julie was very easy to work with and willing to accommodate our changing plans. We had a small hiccup on check-in, but that was easily fixed. The house is HUGE - we never felt crowded, and everybody had their own room and space to move around and play games indoors or outdoors. Would definitely book this place again for a large family gathering.

Picture perfect

This farmhouse provided the greatest Thanksgiving I never knew I needed until we got it here. Our family is large my husband and I brought 3 of our grown children and their spouses and children to Cashmere and my mom also joined us. 4 generations of family and we all were in love with this farmhouse. It's big enough for everyone to spread out and have space. The dining room table was the best part we made big meals and sat at the table and ate family style which is something I know I didn't know I needed it until we were all gathered around passing dishes. This property gave us a place to sled safely for our 5 year old granddaughter as well as us older folks that couldn't resist a trip down the hill too 😀. The remoteness is just right. The silence in the snow in the early morning was majestic. The echo of the canyon was joyous. I cant say enough about how much we enjoyed this home and our stay and that we can't wait to do it again. Thank you so very much

Brender Canyon Framhouse

Our family gathered from NYC, IN, FL, CA, & WA, & we so enjoyed our stay! The big kitchen was perfect for cooks & eaters alike (appreciated the bottled water) & the huge living room had places for singular and group activities & the huge dining table was perfect for our crowd. Most of the time we visited or ate on the porch, walked the neighborhood & hiked the hills, devoured the Anjou bakery pastries & sourdough, played croquet under the old walnut trees, talked back to the turkeys, ping ponged on the third floor, etc. Although we were there during the heat wave, the AC kept us cool in the late afternoon & most didn't use it at night.

Not recommended for Summer

The house is referred to as 'The Farm House ' and it is what they say it is. It's well used, cute decor and although its advertised as having egg laying chickens, really the only poultry is two turkeys and a rooster. Being a farm girl I was drawn to the birds and visited them everyday, cleaned their coop, kept them cool in the extreme heat, made sure they had adequate water and fed them leftovers.. As for the house, it does state it has air conditioning but I found out upon arrival that it's not central air. Which is an over site by me. They have some air conditioning units in a few bedrooms but not all the bedrooms ( leaving part of our family to stay somewhere else defeating the purpose of us all being together) With the heat wave of 108 + everyday it was hard keeping the house cool. The house is large with plenty of bedrooms and comfortable beds. There are 4 full bathrooms and the house is well stocked which was nice. Any other time of the year the house would be comfortable but we just happened to be there in the hottest part of July. Location wise, it wasn't as convenient to Leavenworth or Wenatchee but it's in a quiet part of the country making it nice to enjoy evening outdoor conversations. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and the house looked tidy but I did some pre-cleaning before the rest of our family showed up. The chairs at the kitchen table had crumbs on every seat. The freezer ice box was a mess so washed it and kept it full with ice. Above the fire place on the ledge was in dire need of dusting and the stairs to the attic bonus room had not been vacuumed nor had the bonus room. So it's the details, but the owners were very nice and helpful and easy to get a hold of. Would we stay there again, probably not but only because it didn't suit our needs although we did appreciate being able to bring our dogs. It's a nice place if you're looking for a country vacation.
