About this property

Romantic LOG CABIN on Stilly River w/ Hot tub! Setup for 2 people only

I’m an Artisan Log Cabin perched high above the Stilliguamish River. You can find me hiding in the morning shadow of Mt. Pilchuck and always with a watchful eye on the river valley below. As you drive past my gate and enter the 10+ acre property, you’ll be greeted and surrounded by nature and wildlife on every side. Upon crossing my threshold, you will immediately notice that many moons ago each and every log was meticulously selected, cut, hand-scraped and placed with precision high above the river’s edge. My view from each and every window has your ‘serenity now’ in mind!

Inside my walls, I’m tastefully decorated with stuff of old and new, but I’d much rather draw your attention to the beauty that’s all around me. Sometimes you just need to get away. To rejuvenate your mind, body and spirit, and take a break from society. A cozy, romantic log cabin tucked far away in the forest is perfect for this. No people around, only peace and nature. The forest is not merely an expression or representation of sacredness, nor a place to invoke the sacred; the forest is sacredness itself. It’s a living cathedral! Come and experience this sacredness at the River Ranch. Rest, relax and rejuvenate!

Inside, you’ll have over 2000 square feet to unwind. Outside, you’ll have a nature sanctuary to engulf you.

Cozy up to the wood burning stove with a good book. Soak in the hot tub outside or the jacuzzi bath tub for 2 and watch the hummingbirds right outside. Make s’mores while star gazing. Nap on the handmade swing and listen to the babbling brook that runs along the entire property. Watch eagles catch fish in the Stilly River below. Feed the squirrels, birds and chipmunks on the back deck. Binge watch a show on Netflix or Amazon video on one of the 3 flat screen TVs. Sit on the front porch and watch the deer feed on an apple tree. Cook a meal in the fully equipped kitchen. Reconnect with your partner over a fun board game. Your possibilities are endless at the River Ranch.

Guests have access to everything inside the cabin except the master closet. Guests are not allowed to venture off into any areas of the property with critical slope. **Please note, as this is our personal residence and due to medical reasons, we have a service animal exemption and cannot accept service animals or emotional support animals of any kind.

Charlie, your host, will be in the guest house on the property and can be available as needed.

Spectacular in every way.

This property is definitely at the top of the list for romantic getaways. The view is like a painting and the wildlife (birds, squirrels and deer) are plentiful. I stayed 2 nights here with my husband and it was perfect. We had all the amenities we needed and felt right at home almost instantly. The bed was comfortable as were the lounge chairs and sectional on the deck. Watching movies while in the hot tub was an added bonus. There are also amazing hikes nearby and great restaurants so you have the best of everything. You could also very easily just stay and relax in the cabin and be very happy. Our hosts were very respectful of our privacy and made sure we had everything we needed. I HIGHLY recommend a stay here. I am sure we will be back and have referred friends already.

Absolutely Amazing

This was the perfect quiet getaway for my husband and I. Raising teens adds a lot of chaos to life. Resting at the Clark’s Cabin in the woods was absolutely spectacular and refreshing. Amenities, location, and hospitality blew us away. Wish we could give it 6 stars.

5-Star Anniversary Retreat

My wife and I alternate planning our anniversary each year, and this gem has set the bar incredibly high for her to top next time! We booked Charlie and Jessie’s property for our 6th anniversary, and it was an absolute find.Charlie is a fantastic host. He greeted us warmly upon arrival, walked us through a few simple rules, and was super easy to communicate with throughout our stay. After the initial welcome, he and Jessie gave us complete privacy—we didn’t see them again, which was perfect for our romantic getaway.The photos on the listing don’t do this place justice. The views are breathtaking, and even if you visit during the rainy season, don’t be discouraged. We were lucky to catch a stunning rainbow after a bit of sun, which made the experience even more magical. The property spans 10 acres, offering plenty of space to explore. It’s also conveniently located just 11 minutes from downtown Arlington. For a delicious breakfast, we highly recommend Blue Bird Cafe nearby.Thank you, Charlie and Jessie, for your incredible hospitality and for sharing your gorgeous property with us. We can’t wait to return!

The cabin was absolutely stunning-- even better than the pictures somehow! Charlie and his family were wonderful hosts and made us feel so welcomed. We were surrounded by nature and close to many great hiking trails in the area. If we're ever back in the area, we'd love to stay again!

One of the nicest properties we’ve rented. The cabin was perfect for two people. The views of the river and mountains were amazing. Located in a very quiet, secluded spot. Our host, Charlie, lives on the property and was there to answer any questions. We highly recommend this cabin.

There is nothing not to like about this cabin. The Clarks are amazing hosts and have thoughtbof every last little detail. Sitting on the deck watching the fog roll through the trees and watching the sun come up was a real treat. We have stayed twice now and have already booked our 3rd visit!!

Breathtaking views away from it all

This property is amazing from the second you step on it. You are greeted at the door on your arrival and they make you feel right at home. If this property is available book it don't miss out. The trail is a beautiful trail into the trees and is so beautiful to start your mornin. Dont fordet the beautiful views from the hot tub either. Highly recommend this property.

About the host

Hosted by Charles Clark

Host profile image
I grew up in the 1940’s in the backwoods of Louisiana next to 10 mile creek. I met my wife, who grew up in Kentucky, while working for the FBI in DC. We eventually migrated to Texas, had a family and retired. We are now here in PNW to be closer to a few of our grandkids.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property the moment we saw it. While it’s completely different from Louisiana and Texas, it is steeped with such a rich and intense beauty that reminds us of our childhood, living in the country and a simpler time. We love being able to share this unique property with others!

What makes this property unique

Once you drive through the gate, you can tell immediately that you’re in a sacred place. However, it doesn’t really hit you until you walk in the front door of the Log Cabin and you’re face-to-face with a view that will literally take your breath away! One of my favorite things is seeing a guest’s face as they walk through the door and see the view for the first time. We get to share that moment together and it truly is PRICELESS!!!
