Photos and Description of this Twisp holiday house 10 Bedrooms, 3 Full Bathrooms, 3 half Bathrooms, Sleeps 25

The place to go to get away from it all....Situated in the renowned Methow Valley (foothills of the North Cascade Mountains), this private retreat is nestled in a secluded basin all its own, at the end of the road. The property's 160 acres is surrounded by thousands of acres of National Forest wildlands, with the nearest private property over a mile away. There is great hiking and skiing right from the door, and a wood-fired sauna to cleanse and rejuvenate you. The Lodge features a rustic, wood interior with a handsome rock fireplace. The cathedral ceiling and skylights in the 800 square foot living room provide an inspiring atmosphere for rest and renewal. There is ample space for family and friends, but it's also cozy enough for a quiet romantic getaway. The newly-constructed Bermhouse has hand-finished artisan interiors. It's a perfect place for family reunions, weddings, or a quiet break from the rest of the world!

Our guests appreciate the silence this property has to offer. They say that although many places say they offer seclusion, this is the only place that really delivers. We have also been told that the photos don't really capture the place, it usually exceeds peoples' expectations!

Notes: The three bedroom Lodge has recently been remodeled, adding a radiant heat floor and beautiful bamboo flooring. There are another six bedrooms with twin beds (can be pushed together to make king-size) in the new passive-solar Bermhouse. We only rent to one group at a time, so you always have the whole place to yourself! We also have a couple of tents, one 15x15 (seats 25 people), the other 2000 sq feet (seats 200), for additional space in summer. It's a perfect place for a picturesque wedding, or a fun-filled family reunion. We now have wireless internet, so you can stay connected in the middle of nowhere! Quality Assurance: this is a full-time vacation rental house, professionally run since 2003.

Further details for this holiday house rental in Twisp, USA

Winter fun!: in the winter we have about 10km of groomed ski trails winding through the property, with several slopes to choose from for back-county skiing, snowboarding or sledding. For the most part, the only people in this valley are our guests, so there's a good chance you'll get some freshy snow!

Spring, summer and fall: Spring, summer and fall have their own attractions -such as a blanket of wildflowers covering the land, or the joy of swimming in cool, clear mountain waters. There are a variety of hikes right from the door of the lodge, taking in views of the Methow Valley, old-growth ponderosa pine trees and snow capped peaks. Our favorite is a loop hike that takes about an hour, and circumnavigates the valley with views of the Sawtooth Range. You can also hike to the top of Lookout Mountain, with 360 degree views of both Sawtooths and North Cascade Ranges - takes about a half a day. Or sit by the seasonal creek, flowing down from Lookout Mountain into a pristine pool. There is fishing nearby, wildlife to watch, or just hang out in blissful peace and quiet!

Note:: Caretakers live on the property, around the corner from the main house. They are well-practice at being invisible, and their objective is that you have a very quiet and peaceful stay!

Ski: about 7 miles of private groomed ski trails, plus numerous slopes for backcountry skiing or boarding right out the door!

Review Submitted: November 13, 2008 Date of Stay: November 2008
Thank-you for being so gracious and easy going. It made things very
nice for us to be able to use the cabin to gather in and have the
separate bedroom areas for young kids and there parents. It was also
nice for me to be able to pull my RV up close to the cabin and have a
nice level area to park. Being close was enjoyable because it seemed
we were in and out of it a lot. We really enjoyed our stay and I do
hope our family can enjoy your beautiful property again.
I also wanted to thank-you for allowing us to leave basically at our
leisure. We enjoyed having the extra time, it made it a lot less
stressful for us. Teenagers and babies can sometimes be a crazy combination!
Thanks again for your hospitality

Review Submitted: September 20, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
My husband and I recently got married at Skalitude, and everything about our event was simply perfect. Skalitude itself and the surrounding area are absolutely gorgeous, the facilities are comfortable and tasteful, and Lindsey and Will were a huge help. They made excellent recommendations, and coordinated with our caterer and local rental providers to take care of everything from tables and chairs to flatware and many other needs. Their relaxed and competent approach helped us get everything organized without a lot of stress, and left us free to enjoy our time with friends and family. Although there are many options of places to get married in the Methow, we appreciated that Skalitude does not only cater to weddings, thus making it more unique and less expensive, and it still had all the accommodations we needed. Our event felt special and personal, and all of our guests were amazed at the beauty of the setting. Skalitude is great for a range of occasions, big or small. We can't wait to go back again! Two thumbs up, five stars, perfect!

We had a family reunion here and everyone absolutely LOVED this place! Some of us have stayed other places, but none compared to this little piece of heaven. The quiet and peaceful surroundings made this one of the most enjoyable getaways I have ever had. The accommodations are very comfortable, I slept great! We will most definitely be coming back here! Thanks Lindsey for your kind hospitality!! Barb & family
