Tranquil Country Lodge Getaway with Hot Tub! Privacy & Serenity Abound...
We are the closest vacation rental of it's size to Cheney and Eastern Washington University.
Located on a ponderosa pine covered ranch South of town, The Harwood Lodge is an exclusive, log and timber framed lodge featuring 5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms on 3 floors. It has all the modern conveniences with all of the rustic charm in a very tranquil, private and amazingly beautiful setting away from it all, but just a short drive into town.
A 40' free-standing river rock fireplace serves as the focal point of the main lodge. Privacy and tranquility surround you as you soak in the hot tub, sit around the outdoor fire pit or take in the view off of the spectacular main deck! Located within 10 minutes of 7 lakes and adjacent to Turnbull Nat'l Wildlife Refuge, The Harwood Lodge is THE ideal location for a nature-inspired getaway... (AND: we're just 25 short miles and just 2 turns from downtown Spokane!).
Team Coaches/Advisors: The Lodge is also just 10 short miles from EWU, in a straight line! The "25" sleeping number is the max number of kids that the Lodge will comfortably accommodate in beds, air mattresses, sleeping bags, etc.
GROUP/EVENT PRICING: for larger groups (Business Retreats/Sports Teams/Church Groups/Reunions/Etc.) is as follows: Lodge event rental from Friday at 3PM through Sunday at noon are flat group fees. We also allow for RV's or tents if you wish to bring them (please check with us first). Write or call for details.
Holiday weekends (Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, etc.) are always in high demand and usually book out far in advance. They are $1499 base rate and include 3 nights stay. They are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis. This includes Hoopfest Weekend as well.
EWU, WSU & GU Graduation weekends are usually also reserved far in advance and based upon availability on a first-come, first-served basis. These weekends are $1499 and include 3 nights stay. Call or write for availability.
Weddings/Events: 10+ guests -Use of the Lodge and entire ranch property from Friday 3PM through Monday at noon, $2995. $399 per day for each additional day on either side.
Staying at the Lodge is MUCH less expensive for groups, sports teams, work crews and families than staying in individual hotel rooms, eating out and driving all over! And, all in a way more cool and relaxed environment that is conducive to team building and free from the distractions of commercial accommodations, restaurants, traffic and noise found in town. It looks and feels like something right out of a Hallmark movie!
So, whether you're just a couple looking for a quiet little getaway for the weekend, a group of friends looking for the ideal yet affordable gathering spot, or a larger group looking for a retreat location, The Harwood Lodge IS your ideal destination spot! An amazing space to just "get away from it all" for a bit.
Cheers...!

Beautiful lodge very outdoorsy and rustic there was room for all and the hot tub was clean and so relaxing in the cold winter breeze the property was secluded and lovely we very much enjoyed our stay
Friends and family came into town for a celebration. There was plenty of room for all. I enjoyed the well stocked kitchen and cooking for my family. The back deck was a great place to chill in the evening and look out at the stars. My favorite part was the quiet on the property. Only sounds of nature. Beautiful place! Thank you!

Great spot for a large group to enjoy a weekend away!
We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cabin! It was the perfect retreat for our church group—clean, comfortable, and peaceful. The space was well-equipped and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend together. The host was responsive and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet getaway!---Let me know if you'd like to mention any specific amenities or experiences!
We visited with relatives in Spokane and had them over for dinner and to visit, was awesome, there is something to do for everyone, we always feel so comfortable and at home there!! Would highly recommend the cabin, it is amazing and so peaceful!
The lodge is a great place with alot of character. Enough room for the whole family. Rick was very accommodating for our last minute pets that came to stay. Would definitely stay again!!
The Country Lodge was very nice, quiet, and tranquil. There was plenty of space both indoor and outdoor for relaxing and spending time together as a family. It was a wonderful place to stay, especially to get away. We had little children, and there were lots of knick-knacks that we had to put up or watch out for, the front door was a little tricky to figure out at first, and the hot tub could have been a little cleaner, but otherwise things were great. Rick and Tammy were easy to communicate and work with and helped with any concerns/questions. They even checked-in part-way through the stay, which was a very personable touch!
Our family really enjoyed this accommodation! Loved the rustic/cabin decor! It was well stocked with essential kitchen items. We would definitely stay here again if we had a large family get together.

Retreat Stay
We had our Team retreat with 10 of us ladies. Had a great time. Great to get away from the city and fantastic view. Would stay again for sure.
Family loved staying at this location. We were able to get multiple households together without feeling cramped for space. The host made sure that we had everything we needed for a good stay.
Rick was very accommodating And was easy to communicate with. Everyone enjoyed our stay in this beautiful cabin. Cabin well stocked and just as described
The hot tub was nice to come back to after a day out in the snow. It was an amazing home and the owners were extremely responsive and made sure to check in with me to see that everything was going well.
We had a group of five families, ten adults and ten kids. We had an amazing trip. We loved the seclusion and the hosts were very responsive, friendly and helpful. Would defiantly recommend.
