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.

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.

Dream Retreat

Dear Clark Family – Wow! It is hard to find the words for your majestic views and relaxing, eclectic, and perfect home. This place is absolutely soul-refreshing and deserves a write up in Country Living Magazine and a Conde Nast Travel Award! From the sweet deer family grazing under the apple tree to the eagles swooping down over the river, to walks on the mossy trails to secret waterfalls, to watching romantic Christmas movies in the hot tub…what an absolute dream! We enjoyed time to reconnect over coffee and chilly morning views on the back deck to warm nights cuddled by the woodstove with a cozy blanket and some cocoa. After 3 long and busy years of caring for sick parents, marrying off kids, and building a new business, we were just TIRED! Married nearly 27 years but felt like we had been on autopilot. When we came, I had dubbed this “vision weekend” and it was exactly that. We are leaving refreshed with new vision for our marriage and strength for all that life will bring in the near future. There is so much world to see and so little time off work that we try to never visit the same place twice. But this may have to become an annual tradition for us because it is just perfect in every way. Thank you again for opening up your little slice of heaven to us, your generosity, and hospitality. We pray for blessings upon your property and family, and we hope to see you again very soon! - Paul & Jennifer Williamson Edgewood, WA

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.

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!!

The Clarks property is absolutely wonderful. Amazing views of the mountains and river. A beautiful cabin that feels like a home away from home. We really enjoyed mornings in the hottub watching the wildlife around us. We hope to stay there again sometime soon.

Extended weekend getaway

My wife and I were in the area for a friend's wedding and decided to make an extended weekend out of it. Normally, we're up and adam — cramming as many events into the day as we can. But not this time. The house and surrounding views were so beautiful. And it was just quiet and peaceful. In the end, we just hung around the house, and the hottub, and did absolutely nothing. It was great.

Nothing short of Fantastic!

The pictures do not even come close to the amazingness of this home. The Clark's attention to detail is fantastic. The decor is rustic ranch luxe and even though it rained our entire stay, the view is straight from heaven. Every little detail is thought out. There were mints on the nightstand, toothbrushes, floss, toothpaste, lotion, shampoo, make up remover wipes....basically of you could think of it, it was there for you. We are not drinkers, but there was wine and beer in the fridge, coffee and tea, popcorn, cookies, granola bars. And we didnt get a chance to use them, but there were games and coloring books and pencils too. The bed was comfy and warm, and the water pressure in the shower fantastic and hot!! We spent our time on the covered porch either in the hot tub or just watching the birds and rain over the river. The driveway in is gravel and narrow in places but once you enter the property it feels like you've entered heaven. It is so well maintained and absolutely breath-taking. Charlie met us at the door and walked us through the home and visited for just a few short minutes -very nice guy! -and then we never saw him after that. Do yourself a favor and if yiu are even thinking about this place....Book it now!! We just left and already booked another stay before we even got all the way home!!

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!!!
