Family wedding out of town
We went to a wedding out of town. It was a little tricky finding the place because it’s next to another home. The place was exactly what we expected. It was clean, nice, and comfortable.

Great place
This remodeled shop was perfect for our weekend getaway! Only issue was the wifi didn't work, but other than that no issues!

Beautiful Shared property
We had our wedding at this property and used the cabin the night before. The cabin itself is very pretty and clean. It is a shared property with a large house which makes it difficult to know which areas you can use. It’s extremely expensive for this cabin given the only outdoor area you can really use is a gravel driveway. When we were there the main house had a raging drunken party of 10-15 guys, which made our stay less enjoyable. If you’re going to stay here go for the house, the cabin isn’t worth the cost.

Response from VrboOwner on 25 Oct 2020
Thank you for leaving your review. We got 3* for the guests house because 'it was too expensive' for you and because someone 400 yards away had beer on the deck. That makes total sense. Hope your wedding at our property went well.

Cozy and smart
Adorable little hideaway in Cle Elum. This property catered to the whole family. The beds were comfy and the kitchen well equipped. I have to admit everyone enjoyed spending some time in the bunk beds under the stairs. 15 minutes to Suncadia and 45 minutes to Snoqualmie the location let adventure be the order of the day.

Orange door property
Had a lovely stay. Property is exactly as listed and beautiful. Fun details like built in bunk beds for kids as well as a loft. Loved the murals on the wall. Only complaint is that it is harder to find than expected, but a call to owner cleared up any confusion. Would definitely stay again!

The Perfect Escape
From the moment we drove up to the time we sadly said goodbye, our stay was absolutely wonderful. We were greeted by a family of deer just outside our front door upon arrival. Then, as we stepped inside, an overwhelming sense of calm and relaxation took over. The rental is beautifully furnished - from the softest pillows and throw blankets to the linens on the beds. We spent about 30 minutes just walking around and discovering new things - such as the lights that softly guide your steps as you go up the stairs, a closet that held board games and extra things someone might need, the biggest and comfiest bean-bag chair ever!, and so many places to sleep that my son and I had a hard time deciding where! We easily could have moved into this rental and been as happy as could be. Iriana is a lovely host with impeccable taste. The area is secluded and calm with views of the mountains. Breakfast in Cle Elum was great and the Cle Elum bakery is a MUST if going into town. The Thorp Fruit Barn is a wonderful stop as well, to stock up on fruits and snacks while perusing the antiques upstairs. As we locked our door to leave, we were bid farewell by our deer family again. They didn’t want us to go just as much as we didn’t either. We will certainly be back.

Beautiful home
This home is beautiful! Everything was ready for us when we arrived, adorable decor and clean. The baby gear available for use came in handy and hosts were very responsive making sure we found the place okay, answering any questions, etc. I hope we will be coming to Cle Elum again to stay here!

The place was well kept and an easy 15 min into town. The twin beds are in a loft area. Setting the thermostat to make the main living area comfortable makes the loft a bit over warm for sleeping. Even the memory foam on the master, while comfortable, was over warm for my sleeping comfort. We only stayed one night so I’m sure another night would have been better. There weren’t instructions on how to use the coffee machine or turn off the under cabinet lights, but the teenagers had fun with Alexa, playing all kinds of music. Game selection is spare so bring some of your own if you want to stay in and play games. Overall a great place we would likely return.

I perfect “Snow-Cation” for our family of 6!!!
Everything was wonderful! Super clean as everything is brand new. Kitchen was well supplied, even had an instant pot! 🥰 Cozy and well decorated, kids loved their sleeping options. Quiet and peaceful, close to Suncadia for ice skating and tubing hill, etc. We rented their snow machines and had a blast driving them on the trails right from the guest house. Communication was quick when we had issues trying to work the television. Would Definitely come back to this guest house!

The property was very inviting and comfortable!
We enjoyed a weekend away in the snow with 6 family members and were very comfortable. Our kids loved the bunk beds! The kitchen was well stocked with all the basic necessities. The owners brought fresh towels and even towed our kiddos on sleds behind their quad. I would recommend this newly updated, modern guest house!
