Great, prompt communications with Mary and her local manager Sheri. We had a bit of trouble with the key code getting in but Sheri came right over to help. We were able to check in a couple of hours early (thanks, Mary!) We enjoyed the afternoon and evening sitting by the lovely river and in the backyard hot tub under the stars. Next day we drove into North Cascades National Park, did the Trail of Cedars short loop hike, checked out the Gorge Powerhouse (inside, too!), had a picnic at the North Cascades Learning Center and then took the boat ride up and down the gorgeous turquoise-colored Diablo Lake. We spent our second evening cooking dinner on the BBQ, playing dominoes and just enjoying the peace and quiet. :-) A few things to know: ~ There was construction going on in the lot next to the house during our stay. ~ Very few dining choices in nearby Marblemount. ~ The sofa beds need replacing. ~ We know there aren't many options in the area but $750/nt is a lot for this place. FYI!

really happy we found this place! Great location and really attentive host that went above and beyond with little extras in the house. We'll stay again when we are up that way!

Amazing place, beautiful location, very well stocked. No complaints at all - only one thing to note is that there’s only one bathroom. Overall, really serene and lovely place and beautifully maintained, very clean

This was a great place very close to the entrances of North Cascades NP. For those going in the summer during a heat wave, it has air conditioning too! The beds are SO comfy after a day of hiking also! Perfect place to stay during our trip ❤️

I did not want to leave! Perfect location to North Cascades NP, and a great place to wind down after a long day. My group cooked dinner and ate outside on the front deck. We got time to hang out down by the river and lay around in the warm sun. Incredible place!

The location was excellent for North Cascades National Park and the size of the property is wonderful with a beautiful river running by it . The hot tub, seating by the river and fire pit were wonderful amenities after a long day of hiking. However , the beds and the comforters were the highlight for us ! The beds were absolutely comfortable so much so that I'm looking to buy some for our home. Definitely would book again if ever in the area. Thank you Mary for making our vacation stay perfect !!

This was a perfect place for our family of 5 who are exploring North Cascades and other Washington state national parks. Great access to park and Marblemount restaurants, supplies, and activities. Would definitely stay here again
