About this property
Free Night! Magical Retreat on Sahara Creek!
🏡Book 2 nights/3rd night FREE! Valid Sun-Thurs; Oct 1-March 30. Excludes Holidays & Friday/Saturday check-in. Free night applies to the least expensive night, 1 free night per stay.
✨Welcome to Tahoma Park House!
The main floor offers a cozy twin bunk bed setup and a full bathroom w/ bathtub & shower. The upper floor loft offers a very comfy queen bed and storage/closet. Electric wall heater and wood-burning stove for heat. Fully-equipped kitchen* w/ BRAND NEW Frigidaire refrigerator and plenty of seating for everyone!
(*dishwasher not included- so retro chic☺️)
✨The Details: We offer complimentary Wifi and a starter bundle of firewood to make your stay as stress-free as possible! And the kitchen is stocked with coffee, tea, cocoa, popcorn, olive oil, vegetable oil, salt and pepper, and individual packets of condiments, so you can worry about the big stuff like ...did you bring your hiking boots!
🏕️This cabin is one of two that we host; both situated at the end of a small community of cabins (5 cabins including these two). The community is surrounded by 1,000+ acres of Elbe Hills State Forest for your exploration and total serenity. There is a State Road that you can walk (or four-wheel) about a mile long and it will take you all the way to a "beach" on the Nisqually River. The other direction takes you towards Ashford, but is a bit more overgrown and longer.
🍃On the property, both cabins share the "meadow space" and tree-fort with the slide. Apart from that, each cabin faces a different direction and offer plenty of privacy even though they are within about 30 yards of each other. It's the best of both worlds whether you rent just one of the cabins and want some privacy, or if you want to rent out both cabins for a larger get-together and have separate spaces.
Both cabins have waterfront creek view about half of the year when the Sahara Creek runs (November to June). The rest of the year, the creek bed is dry and surrounded by greenery & wildflowers 🌿
✨This listing has been a favorite of Ashford guests for several years! We welcome you to experience the difference!
✅We offer same-day bookings!
✅We are happy to accommodate early check-ins and late check-outs if we have the capacity, so please just reach out for details!
👣NEW! Ask how to Book a BIGFOOT ADVENTURE TOUR and receive 10% OFF** (Tours are seasonal and run April-September)
🦌The local deer population frequently walk through the front and back yards of the home. While enjoying the magic of their presence, we ask that you please maintain a respectful distance from them and thank you for your cooperation in keeping the wildlife safe and wild.
🔌Due to our rural location, we aren't able to offer refunds due to WIFI and power outages. While outages are not uncommon, they are usually very brief (under 4 hours). We offer a wood burning fireplace w/ wood and gas cooking as well as a charcoal bbq for cooking.
🌧️Weather & Cancellation Policy
We do not offer refunds or reservation changes due to inclement weather or personal travel delays. The only exception is if a mandatory evacuation order is issued by the National Weather Service, the City of Ashford, or Pierce or Lewis County emergency services. If no mandatory evacuation is in place, all reservations remain non-refundable, even if guests choose to leave early or are unable to complete their stay.
