My husband & I, along with another couple went to Leavenworth to experience the Christmas lights. The lights were beautiful and the cabin was so festive & charming….all decked out for Christmas!!! The kitchen was very well appointed, beds were comfortable & the setting was away from the hustle & bustle of town. It worked perfect for our winter escape!

Nice place...about 30 minute drive from Leavenworth

The house is in a quiet neighborhood and was as described. We enjoyed the hot tub and streaming services provided. The only issue was that someone apparently unloaded an unwashed load of dishes, so we kept pulling very dirty, used dishes and cups from the cabinets.

A little nugget of heaven!

Wow, this place is so peaceful! The cabin was so comfortable with every amenity provided for. I loved how quiet it is in the area -- the sounds of crickets at night, sounds of the river, sound of the wind blowing in the trees. We loved playing in the river and swimming in the river in Leavenworth. I love this cabin so much and cannot wait to return!

About the host

Hosted by Dana

Host profile image
We are long time Washington residents. We love to travel and visit places near and far. We fell in love with the Leavenworth area and especially the Ponderosa Community. We are looking forward to making many memories there with our children, grand children, family and friends.

Why they chose this property

After looking for a vacation home for over a year we found this wonderful property. The owner's built this home for their family in 1989 and you can feel the love and warmth that they poured into it from the moment you walk in. We were instantly drawn to it.

What makes this property unique

The home has a open floor plan. Your whole family can gather in the dining area or sit in the big comfy sectional. It is a wonderful place to reconnect with extended family or just cozy up for a couples retreat. The backyard faces the Wenatchee River. You can roast marshmallows around the fireplace and listen to calming sounds of the Wenatchee River. There is ample seating on the deck and around the fire pit.
