Located approximately 20 miles outside of Kirkland, this quaint little cabin in the woods is the perfect solution to work-life balance. Close proximity to shopping, dining and entertainment, as well as some of the Northwest's finest breweries, this charming little cabin 40 miles west of Stevens Pass offers privacy for days and is the perfect holiday or weekend getaway. Often referred to as the “Christmas 365 House,” its red siding and white trim, coupled with green grass and red roses, is a constant reminder of Christmas all year long—which is why the Christmas lights never come down. 

This cabin was purchased as a close-in escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It provides relaxation, privacy and all of the amenities you could possibly need while your batteries are charging for the following week. The garden, rich with flowers and vegetables, is a nice release from the long lines at the grocery store, and the hydrangeas might just be award-winning at next year’s Evergreen State Fair.

Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a loft and a full kitchen will accommodate eight guests comfortably for the often visiting friends and family. There is plenty of room for everyone to roam, including the resident equine, Halo. She loves treats and greets visitors with a friendly nicker upon their arrival. This cabin in the woods has become a sanctuary and retreat for the owners who like to enjoy a quick getaway from time to time.
