PEAK SEASON TIP:
Consider alternate travel days or 3 nights to lessen your drive times on Fridays and Sundays.
WINTER MONTHS: (November 1 through March 31)
Ideal for skiers and snow adventurers! Are you dreaming of a cozy log cabin in a winter wonderland? Look no further. Cross-country ski trails, snow shoe trails and snow play are available outside our back door.
DECEMBER:
The cabin is decorated for Christmas in December. Leavenworth is known for its Christmas lighting festival.
NAVIGATING THE SNOW:
The practical side of snow fun requires that you be experienced and comfortable at navigating snow conditions. If you are from out of state and not familiar with snow, you will likely find this location very challenging.
ALL winter reservations REQUIRE all-wheel drive vehicles (4x4, SUV, Crossover, Subaru etc.) and traction tires for access. Due to the driveway steep grade, this is required.
The community roads, driveway and walkway is plowed regularly. Drivers should expect compact snow and ice. When it snows, it can take some time for crews to get to us. Keep in mind they must clear community roadways first. This means guests should be somewhat self-sufficient and utilize the snow removal equipment we have as needed. There are shovels and a snow blower in the garage for use.
The house is located on the upper level of the community mountain roadway, which means roadways are steep but we have great views.
LONG TERM LEASING:
The 1500 sq ft main floor of this beautiful log home is available for mid-term 30 day + rental. This is a great location for reverse snowbirds.
OTHER:
