About this property

Big Bear Ranch House

BLACK FRIDAY SALE - NOW BOOK REDUCED RATE DEC, JAN, FEB, SALE ENDS DEC 1! Relax with family and friends in a peaceful setting in the foothills outside of Yakima. Large great room for sitting back in front of the stove after a fun day of skiing, hiking, fishing or kayaking in the nearby rivers and mountains. Sit in the private hot tub at the end of the day. A canal road out of the back for beautiful walks with your dog.
The space
Large master bedroom and full bath, additional full bathroom downstairs and two bedrooms on the second floor. Wood stove in the front room and propane stove in the great room for cold winter nights, after a great day skiing at White Pass, or cross-country skiing or snow shoeing out the back door. Secluded patio with lawn furniture and BBQ for enjoying the outdoors or stay inside and the floor to ceiling windows of the great room
allow you to feel you are outside.
Guest access
Entire house.
Other things to note
The property is very safe, gated at the dead end of the road, surrounded by hills and orchards. It feels very far out, but is only 20 minutes to downtown Yakima. Far enough away from the city streets and noises of town - gives you an option, 45 minutes to the ski resort, hiking, fishing and floating the river, or into town for fine dining. A great place to unwind. The hot tub is amazing, very private with only birds and an occasional rabbit. Your only neighbor is the owner's home on the other side of the property, which is also for rent when they are gone in the winter.

Sister’s Review

This was a great property for four sisters from the Midwest. We enjoyed the rural setting. Walking along the canal road with one of the resident dogs was a highlight. We didn’t cook too much at the house but we were pleased with the amenities. The fresh ground coffee was a great way to start the day. It was a very comfortable and quiet place to stay.

Second time is a charm

This is the second time we stayed at this property, because you cant find a better place in the Yakima area. It is close to the city and restaurants, but it is further away and secluded. You can go and take long walks in the country or enjoy the beautiful house. If you are staying in Yakima this is a must

Our stay at the big bear ranch house was a lovely getaway. It was a lovely place to unwind and let the dogs play in the yard. The house was roomy and a cozy place to kick up our feet.

Beautiful Countryside Retreat

We stayed at Big Bear Ranch House as my daughter had a volleyball tournament in Yakima. It was lovely to get to come back to a cozy, clean house and cook, walk the dogs, and relax in a beautiful location nestled in the hills and orchards.

Beautiful and peaceful

We stayed at the Big Bear Ranch House for a weekend to get away from the city and relax for a few days and we couldn’t be happier with this place. Susie was also an amazing host. She definitely made it feel like home for us.

Perfect getaway near Yakima

This place was magical. Beautiful property, and the drive in through orchards is just gorgeous. We were there for State dance competition, so didn't have lingering time to enjoy the hot tub (which was clean and beautiful), but the cabin has everything you need to make great meals, relax and enjoy the surroundings. Very comfortable and clean.

Bucolic and relaxing

Had a lovely time at Big Bear. Kids ran around happily and swung on the tree swing. They have great Internet and multiple areas for people to sit together and relax. The only challenge we had (at no fault of the hosts) is the gravel road to the house and Google having some challenges.

Incredible stars at night

A lovely location - mostly private, although the house next door caught us by surprise. Nothing at all wrong with it (super quiet) just not expected. We didn't spend much time in the house as we were there for a large wedding weekend, but the beds were comfortable and the house was clean. A very clear bear theme. Our puppy was initially scared of one of the stuffed bears, which was kind of cute. We enjoyed the immediate area for dog walking and exploring.

Will not return

We will not return. There is no bathroom upstairs. The drains were clogged. The coffee grinder was jammed with fine coffee and broken. Hot tub was cold on arrival. Usually, check-in times are 11:00. This one is 4 PM. So you rented the place for 1/2 day short. Read the fine print, the owner is a stickler on check-in time.
