Great getaway in a cozy cabin

Lovely, cozy cabin in a relaxing mountainous town. Kathy, our host, was sweet, kind, informative and hospitable. Cabin was located close to local restaurants and bars. Deer were grazing in the front yard.We will definitely be back.

1880’s farmhouse was updated with ac, etc. It was a bonus to see deer, quail, eagles, other variety of birds and the herd of Elk. Walking up on the ridge into the cool pinewoods was delightful (when out of the the blazing sun!)

Family Holiday

We had a post-Christmas extended family vacation at this wonderful location. This is a cool cabin tucked into a beautiful valley just outside Naches, WA. We had seven people there and were very comfortable. The hosts are great, they are very communicative and do all they can to ensure a nice stay. My young daughter left some clothes behind, which the hosts found, washed, and mailed back to us. It was very kind of them. We definitely recommend this location if your looking for peace and relaxation.

Amazing!!

Three of my friends and I took a girls’ trip for a few days and we could not have been happier with the home we found. It was a log cabin built in the late 1800’s. We loved the space. The kitchen is well stocked and had everything we needed. The hot tub was fantastic. We loved that the home was decorated for Christmas!!! We recommend this unique home to everyone. Our host Kathy went above and beyond to welcome us!

The PERFECT getaway

I’m still in awe how perfect our anniversary weekend was. The owners were so friendly and reached out prior to check in. Checkin was quick and welcoming. The cabin was so warm and cozy. We loved all of the little touches throughout the cabin and property. We did a little hike to a viewpoint and it was stunning. The views from the windows were stunning. It was peaceful and relaxing. I absolutely loved the memory journal in the cabinet in the living room. This is for sure going to be at minimum a yearly stay. Although it was for a weekend getaway for our anniversary, we plan on also having family getaways as there is so much room and so much to do. Again, this was a perfect weekend.

Could not have been any better -- 11 out of 10

The whole process was perfect. From the listing to the reservation, to the communication, to the stay, and the check out. When we arrived, Kathy came out to greet us and show us the property and the ins-and-outs (how to use the hot tub, where to hike, where to eat, how to set the heat on the heater and 'fireplace'. The cabin was so much fun, knowing we were staying in 100+ yr old cabin was amazing all by itself. The cabin was warm, the bed was nice, the decor was spot on, the landscape was beautiful and well kept, the kitchen was perfect (everything we needed and then some), the hot tub was WONDERFUL, the living area was very comfortable... I could go on forever. Check-out was easy (easiest for any Air-BNB or VRBO we have ever stayed in). Away from the home, we ate some great food (recommended by Kathy), we went on a number of hikes (on and off the property). The river was beautiful and the hike up the hill was easy and fun with a great view. We heard and/or saw a Golden Eagle, Quail, Crows, Steller's Jays, It rained on us, but we didn't care because we were having fun. We got to see a beautiful full rainbow that touched the cabin.

Rustic Charm

We had a wonderful girls night at the Lodge Cabin. It was warm and cozy. Had a full kitchen, huge table and welcoming living room. The bedrooms were unique and we had plenty of space. The attention to details, amenities and the absolutely breathtaking views are in memories that were made. Hot tub was clean and you could see the stars forever. We were even greeted by deer. We want to make this an annual event. Thank you!

Perfect property for a mountain retreat

The cabin was perfect for our needs. Simple cabin with enough beds and room to enjoy with family. The hosts met us right after we arrived to give us additional details about the property. The place was clean and the outside was well manicured. Even though we were by the highway it felt private and peaceful. Hot tub and fire pit were nice too.

Quilting

We had a great time just relaxing and doing what we all love to do and that is quilting. Was nice that we were able to find quilt shops that weren’t to far away. We were able to finish some projects. The hot tub was an added bonus for us this time. The river was nice as well, since I spend a good portion of my summers on a river fly fishing. We do get togethers a couple times a year. Thank you!

Beautiful Stay

This home was perfect for this group of old friends to get together. The indoor space was set up for hanging around and chatting. The table was big enough for us all to be in the kitchen area and chat with whomever was cooking and the lounge chairs were perfect for morning coffee and chatting. We were able to snowshoe from the front door, spent a lot of time watching the elk come down the mountain and star gazed from the hot tub. Perfect place for a get away!

About the host

Hosted by Kathy, Don or Jon Forgey

Hi,
My husband and I met in 1976 and instantly fell in Love! We married in 1981 at St. Paul's Cathedral in Yakima Wa. Don has had a successful career as a musician since he was 18 years old. He Toured with his band Bazooka Joe around Canada and the Northwest, eventually becoming a solo artist. I supported my husbands dream while establishing a career in Dental offices. We have two wonderful children, a daughter and a son. In 1985 we purchased my husbands family farm and after years of farming, we decided to fix up the Homestead Cabin. Our days are spent enjoying the beautiful property and running our wedding business that has grown into something wonderful.

Why they chose this property

Originally this Cabin was built in the late 1800's. Its historic value has served as a stop over for travelers and was used as a boys home in the 1940s. Switching owners several times to eventually be purchased by my husbands family in 1961. Don and I purchased the property eventually in 1985. The Cabin at this time was in pretty bad shape and was in need of some repairs. For 2 and a half years we spent endless hours on the cabin 7 days a week. From the original hand hewn logs, to the exposed chinking we decided to keep the cabin feeling as original as possible. Although some parts of the Cabin had to be modernized for comfort and safety, the original feel of the cabin still remains. Soon after we completed the restoration we decided to share the cabin as a nightly rental. After a few years of renting the cabin, people had begun to inquire about having weddings here. As the weddings grew it became very apparent that we needed to expand. It was Don's great idea to turn our old hay barn into a wedding facility. Which brings us to present day, where we enjoy having weddings from mid-April to the end of October. During our busy wedding season the Cabin comes with the facility as a wedding package.
The rest of the year we Rent our Cabin separately for Romantic getaways for couples, small family gatherings, and folks who enjoy winter sports nearby! Our cabin accommodates up to 10 people. We look forward to meeting all of our guests and sharing this Historic Homestead Cabin.

What makes this property unique

Here at American Homestead you have the opportunity to escape from your busy life and relax on our large 220 acre property! Our property gives you private access to Wildlife and scenic serenity! Enjoy Beautiful sunrise and sunsets, and plenty of space from the public!
