The space
Red Mountain Retreat is a 6,500-square-foot mountain estate on 20 private acres in Maple Falls, Washington, near the base of Mt. Baker. The lodge blends rustic elegance with modern comfort — rich leathers, warm woods, deep greens, and cozy textures throughout. This isn't a dusty cabin. It's a curated retreat.
WHERE YOU'LL SLEEP

4 King Bedrooms — including a primary suite on the ground floor with wood-burning fireplace, seating area, and vanity. All kings feature premium mattresses and luxury linens.
2 Queen Bedrooms — one located on the ground floor with attached half bath, perfect for grandparents or guests who prefer single-level access.
1 Twin XL Room — two twin XL beds upstairs, ideal for kids or additional guests.

Every bedroom has been set up for real sleep — premium mattresses, quality linens, forested views.
LIVING & GATHERING SPACES
The Great Room — A dramatic stone fireplace anchors this space, with a Steinway grand piano, open seating, and room for the whole group. This is where the conversations go late, the music happens, and the fire keeps everyone close.
The Family Lounge — Oversized sectional, smart TV, and enough space for movie nights, game day, or the kids to stake their own territory while the adults relax in the Great Room.
Full Kitchen — Fully equipped for large group cooking and meal prep. Counter space and seating for the kind of meals that become stories.
THE TREEHOUSE SAUNA
Our signature feature. A custom-built sauna perched in the trees above the forest floor, with a cold shower and mountain/forest views. Step out of the heat into the cold air among the canopy. Whether you're using it for recovery, reflection, or just a reset after a day on the mountain — it changes your day.

OUTDOOR SPACES

Private hiking trails winding through 20 acres of forest
Expansive lawn for games, outdoor dining, gatherings, or just standing still in the quiet
Multiple decks and seating nooks — morning coffee, afternoon reading, evening stargazing
Firewood provided for the Great Room fireplace (additional available locally)

WHO THIS PLACE IS FOR
Multigenerational Families — Four king bedrooms, two queens, and a twin room mean everyone has their own space. Two separate living areas let three generations coexist without friction. The ground-floor primary suite and queen bedroom make single-level access easy for grandparents. Twenty acres of trails keep the kids moving and the adults breathing.
Corporate Retreats & Offsites — Seven bedrooms, high-speed Starlink wifi, a dedicated workspace, and the kind of environment where real thinking happens. The treehouse sauna between sessions. The fireplace after dinner. This is where teams come to solve problems they couldn't crack in a conference room.
Wellness Retreats — Twenty acres of forest, a treehouse sauna, private trails, and the kind of silence that's hard to find. The space is being developed with intentional wellness programming in mind.
Intimate Celebrations — Weddings, milestone birthdays, reunion weekends. The expansive lawn, multiple decks, stone fireplace great room, and forest backdrop create a setting no event venue can replicate. The Steinway isn't decorative — it plays. If you're planning a special gathering, reach out and let's talk about how to make it work.

Other things to note
NEIGHBORHOOD / LOCATION
Red Mountain Retreat sits in the forests of Maple Falls, Washington — a small mountain community along the Mt. Baker Highway. This is the Pacific Northwest at its most raw and beautiful: towering evergreens, mountain air, and the kind of quiet that takes a day to fully hear.
SILVER LAKE PARK — Minutes Away
Kayaking, fishing, swimming, and picnicking right in the neighborhood. A quick drive and you're lakeside.
GLACIER, WASHINGTON — 20 Minutes
The charming mountain village of Glacier is your gateway to Mt. Baker — a handful of restaurants, a general store, and the unmistakable feeling that you've arrived at the edge of something bigger. It's the last stop before the mountain and a great excuse to stretch your legs.
MT. BAKER SKI AREA — 52 Minutes
Deep powder, legendary snowfall, uncrowded runs. Under an hour from your door to the lifts, surrounded by the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. Summer hiking and wildflower trails are equally spectacular.
CANADIAN BORDER — 15 Minutes
The Abbotsford-Sumas border crossing is just down the road. Cross into Abbotsford for Cactus Club, international restaurants, craft breweries, and shopping. Vancouver day trips are very doable.
MAPLE FALLS & MT. BAKER HIGHWAY
Small-town charm with local markets, cafes, and access to the Mt. Baker Scenic Byway — one of the most beautiful drives in Washington State.
BELLINGHAM — 45 Minutes
Full grocery stores, restaurants, breweries, Whatcom Falls Park, and the Bellingham waterfront. Your supply run destination and a great day trip in its own right.

GETTING AROUND
This is mountain country — you'll need a car. There is no public transportation to the lodge.
The property has abundant parking on premises with room for multiple vehicles (6 on pavement/assphalt and additional on yard in dry season). The driveway is accessible year-round, but in winter months (November–March), 4WD or AWD is recommended. Mountain roads can see snow, ice, and occasional closures.
Cell service is limited in the Maple Falls area. You'll have full Starlink wifi at the lodge and in the sauna, and cell service picks up near the Mt. Baker ski area and along portions of the highway. Plan accordingly if you need to make calls on the road.
Bellingham (~45 min) is the nearest city with full services — groceries, gas, restaurants, and medical facilities. Small local markets along the Mt. Baker Highway can handle forgotten items.

FIREWOOD — YOU'RE COVERED
All firewood for the lodge is included — no need to waste trunk space or money hauling bundles. There are two open-hearth fireplaces: one in the Great Room and one in the primary king suite. There's also plenty of firewood at the outdoor fire pit. The owners' total land is close to 100 acres, and Pacific Northwest winters bring down more than enough trees each season to keep the supply abundant. Light a fire, settle in — that's what this place is for.

PETS — YOUR DOGS NEED VACATIONS TOO
Growing up, I remember Ocean Shores being more of a vacation for the dog than anyone else — wide open beach, pure freedom. We can't offer sand and surf, but 20 acres of wide-open forest and meadow is a dog's paradise.
Dogs are welcome at Red Mountain Retreat. Here's how we make it work for everyone:

$35/night per dog (maximum 2 dogs)
Pet fees must be paid before check-in
Dogs must be over 1 year old

- PET REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT
There's an additional $200 refundable deposit per stay on top of the nightly pet fee. Let's face it — some dogs are low maintenance and some just let their presence be known (long hair, shedding, the works). This deposit exists to reward families with well-behaved, low-maintenance dogs and keep the program sustainable for everyone. The $200 refund is at the sole discretion of our cleaning team. If your dog was basically a ghost? You'll get it back. If the dog let it be known a dog was here — that deposit covers the extra care.
We strongly encourage bathing and grooming your dog before your trip. We're trying hard to balance keeping pet fees reasonable with the reality of what it takes to turn the lodge between guests. Help us help you bring your dog next time too. We want to make this work on get the $200 deposit back to you.

HOUSE RULES FOR DOGS

Pets are NOT allowed on furniture or beds — no exceptions
Dogs must not be left unattended at the property
If you don't fully trust your pooch at night — whether it's nocturnal exploring, chewing, or spraying — we provide multiple-sized kennels that can be placed indoors to keep your four-legged one in check overnight
Guests are responsible for any pet-related damage beyond normal shedding
Any fines or violations are the guest's responsibility.
