About this property

Secluded Yakima Riverfront Retreat in Cle Elum

3BD house on 6 wooded acres in Cle Elum Washington with direct access to the Yakima River. Hard wood floors, wood burning stove. Two
bedrooms have direct access to bathrooms. Jet tub and spacious upstairs loft/ master bedroom. Fire pit outside with small deck at rivers edge. It's a little piece of heaven. In the
summer it's a delight to be on the river's edge which flows
through the property. The Yakima River is the only Blue Ribbon trout fishery in Washington State. Less than two hours from Seattle, it has become one of the most popular fly fishing destinations in the western US.
The property is located on the upper section and supports brookies, cutthroats and rainbows. At lower flows, there are a number of wading opportunities within easy walking distance from the property .

In the winter, a morning's walk is ripe for snow shoes. Close to the town of Roslyn where Northern Exposure was filmed. And across the freeway from Suncadia Resort.

Tranquility
Our stay, as always was wonderful. It’s peaceful and private and lots of space to walk and explore. Always clean and dog friendly. We have stayed in every bed in the house and all are very comfortable. The house is super roomy and accommodates large dinner gatherings. This visit, we had a tiny frog living on the back deck that we enjoyed keeping an eye on and deer passed through one evening. The owners are super reachable and accommodating! Love the place!

Beautiful Yakima River House
Giant house with big open floor plan, very clean, fully stocked with extra touch amenities inside and out. Terrific kitchen. Lovely forest scene on quiet gravel road. Peaceful sitting deck by the river was a favorite, as well as the swings. Tiny path for water access (better for a dog than a person) Overall, a tranquil spot that was very comfortable for three adults, one teen and two dogs. (The Lab particularly enjoyed the access to the river.) The week we stayed was very hot. The owners suggested we keep the windows closed during the day, and then open them at night for cooling. I was a bit skeptical, but it certainly worked. I was amazed how cool the house was without air-conditioning.) This was a lovely house with beautiful grounds, and we certainly enjoyed our stay.

Excellent property, beautiful setting on the Yakima River. Quiet and peaceful.
Heather/Glenn we’re very responsive to questions. Suggest they stock wine glasses or mention on the listing to bring your own. Also, TV sound bar was not functioning. These were minor things. Otherwise, highly recommend. We would rent again.

About the host

Hosted by Glenn

Host profile image
Glenn & Heather enjoy the outdoors and good day of hard work. The river property is just the place relax and enjoy the surroundings. Good hiking, fishing and fresh air!

Why they chose this property

Secluded 6 acre riverfront retreat. 1.5 hour drive from downtown Seattle. 10 minutes from City of Cle Elum and 15 minutes from Suncadia Resort. The house has great insulation for hot summer days, hidden in the trees. And provides a perfect landscape for snow. It's the best of all worlds. The Yakima river has so much to offer from fly fishing to sitting by the rivers edge. There is a trail that can be taken down the street, through the woods on to a lovely rock beach, back over the island to the property.

What makes this property unique

Fully stocked kitchen, open air, loft master suite with jetted tub. Two additional bedrooms, one adjoins a bathroom. Dining table seats 6 and a good size island with chairs for food prep and chatting.
Two decks, one off the kitchen and one at the rivers edge. Large wooded yard space with outdoor fire pit. Close to Roslyn and town of Cle Elum.
