About this property

"Quail Haven" The Serene Hillside Getaway

Unique lower level of daylight basement home (owners reside in the upper level), and centrally located in the Okanogan area. Serene setting with a captivating view, nestled on a hillside just above lush orchards.
Minutes from skiing, shopping, sledding, boating hunting, fishing & the Omak Stampede grounds. This home affords the visitors to lively activities & relaxing downtime from traffic and noise.
If you are a stargazer this is the perfect location.
Lake Chelan with it's many wineries is just 45 minutes south. Winthrop and the North Cascades is just 45 minutes west. We enjoy sharing fresh fruit off of our trees (in season) for our guests table. Apricots, donut peaches, Hale peaches, and apples.
We are also certified by the Okanogan County Board of Health, Permit #19-124
We have an assortment of wildlife in the area. Deer roam the property during the winter. There are coyotes, wolves, rabbits, and an occasional snake. We even had a moose wander through the upper orchard one morning. We have seen three different types of snakes, blue racers, bull snakes and rattlesnakes.
We ask all to please keep your distance and never approach any of the snakes or wildlife.

Joe and Sandie are excellent hosts. We’ve stayed here three times and each visit has been great. The one time there was a minor problem, Joe was on it right away and resolved things quickly. The home is very clean, and we really appreciate having the washer and dryer in the unit. The views from the deck are beautiful.

The property was perfect for our family. The view was amazing! The patio was setup perfectly with everything you need plus a firepit and misters! Joe & Sandie don't usually open the pool until June but I asked if it could be open for our Memorial Day weekend since the weather was supposed to be in the 80's. They went out of their way to get it open for us and our 2 yr old grandson had a blast swimming in the pool. Thank you Joe & Sandie for the fabulous family memories we were able to create in your space.Joe & Sandie are excellent hosts!

Joe and Sandie and first class people and hosts, and their property is fantastic! Well maintained, spacious, and an excellent location for proximity to the Columbia River, Lake Chelan, Omak/Okanogan, and the Methow Valley. Would stay again in a heartbeat!

Great place

House was very comfortable. We were in town for several days salmon fishing. Great location and a lot of room to park a boat. Even though the owners of the house lived upstairs it’s a very quiet location. Great views. Would stay there again.

What a hidden gem!

My partner and I visited from Seattle for 3 nights, and we had an amazing experience calling this our weekend home. The views from the property are amazing and the unit is clean and large enough to feel comfortable all day if needed. AC kept us nice and cool all night, and our hosts were extremely generous and flexible.

Already booked for fall and will for spring as soon as I have my dates

I cannot say enough about how perfect this spot was for us. We worked 8-14 hour days in 85 heat and having a clean, cool, beautiful spot to retreat to - made the difference. Laundry, clean towels, plenty of parking, kind and gracious on site hosts made this work so well!

We enjoy staying here when visiting relatives in Omak. Although we are typically gone throughout the day, our mornings are wonderful with the living space, windows and coffee. The beds are comfortable and they provide all you need including some snacks!

About the host

Hosted by Joe and Sandie Simonsen

Host profile image
We relocated to the Okanogan area in 2003 and really enjoyed the lifestyle the area had to offer. The friendly people and less traffic. It's an easy drive to town and there is plenty of shopping in the area.

Why they chose this property

The home had just the setting we had always imagined. The view is so spectacular any time of the year.
A driveway with it's cottage like appeal and a home just large enough for the family to gather.

What makes this property unique

The home sits just above the town. It is very quiet here.
At night the sky comes alive with stars.
In 2014 we decided this would be a perfect, serene getaway to share so we opened the lower level for vacationers to enjoy. It is centrally located for, shopping, golfing, skiing and excursions throughout the Okanogan and central Washington area.
We have an assortment of wildlife in the area. Deer roam the property during the winter. There are coyotes, wolves, rabbits, and snakes. We have seen three different types, Blue Racers, Bull Snakes and Rattlesnakes. We also had a Moose wander through the upper orchard one morning.
We ask all to please keep your distance and never approach any of the snakes or wildlife.
