About this property

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Unplug! Tranquil, Private, Pet-Friendly Rustic Cabin in the Woods

Private, Tranquil, Rustic Cabin 20 minutes from the charming, historic town of Baker City, nestled in the foothills of the Elkhorn Mountains, 30 minutes to Anthony Lakes Ski Resort. This cozy space takes you back to the basics. Unplug and enjoy the beauty of nature and simplicity of living in the woods!

There is no pet fee or cleaning fee. Guests are to clean up after themselves and their pets (leave it as you found it). The cabin is aired out between guests, surfaces are disinfected and fresh towels and linens replace those used.

Ready for a bit of adventure? There is outgoing plumbing only (no running water). Bucket your washing and flushing water out of the creek off of the back deck (runs most of the year). Bottled drinking and cooking water are also provided.

Winter: December-March you will need 4 wheel drive to access the cabin as the road can be quite icy and is a bit of a climb.

Pets are welcome but please notify host. Sleeps 4 (1 double bed, 1 futon, 1 sleeper couch), pricing is for 2 guests.

No internet, TV service or Freezer (small refrigerator).

The space:
The Enchanting A-Frame is private outside of 2 neighboring cabins, one may be visited with dogs and the other is a full-year resident with sweet "Tess" a
friendly young rottweiler may come around for a visit and let herself in if the door is not latched.

This 900 square foot cabin is rustic, not all conveniences, but very comfortable, like camping but much better, safer, warmer, drier ....

Being an A-Frame, the upstairs bedroom/loft is much warmer than downstairs, especially in the winter. There are fans on both levels to encourage circulation of heat from the propane vent-less heater.

The bathroom is small and tight quarters. Navigating this space can be somewhat of a challenge. The shower is also on the small side and is a camp shower ( with water heated from the stove). The spiral staircase is narrow and steep with a minimal handrail.

A stone fireplace provides additional comfort during the colder and wetter seasons so bring lots of firewood to add to the starter stock provided. (No fires of any kind however during wildfire season, generally July - September.)

Light breakfast foods, coffee, tea and hot chocolate are available for guests to enjoy. The kitchen is stocked with all basics, plates, glasses, utensils, pots and pans.

Guest access:
Guests have use the entire cabin, though there are many drawers and cupboards which store host supplies and linens. The neighboring storage shed is for host use only.

Other things to note:
Just to reiterate, the plumbing inside the cabin is outgoing only. Water must be brought into the cabin from the creek or it will be provided in buckets and large water jugs (if the creek is not running, which it occasionally does not due to retainage for nearby forest fires or use in agriculture in the fall). Hot water is obtained by heating water on the propane range in the kitchen.

Propane is the main source of heat and provides fuel for the cook stove. The use of propane can emit a slight odor at times. The cabin is checked regularly for propane leaks.

The Best Little Getaway
I took my partner here for a late Valentine's Day trip and it didn't disappoint. The a-frame is cute and quirky, but romantic and magical all the same. Everything is better than you're expecting, except for the toilet -- that is as quirky as you're imagining lol. If you're thinking of booking this a-frame, stop thinking and start booking. I already can't wait for our next visit.

Magical house in the woods
We spent here weekend and it was amazing, really magical place. We saw deer out of window. Cozy place to relax and enjoy your time. Read carefully overview of this house and instructions inside. Such a gem should be protected and respected.

My girlfriend and I pretty much just said “oh my god” over and over upon arrival to the Enchanting A-Frame. It’s beautiful, magical, comfortable, just kind of unreal. We are going to find a reason to go back to Baker City just to stay here. We love this place.

We loved the cabin and brook behind it! We were surprised when the welcoming committee, French Fry pushed open the back door and came on in! We had met Jess earlier in the morning while enjoying our coffee on the back patio! What a joy! Very relaxing space! We enjoyed staying in and watching movies as well!

Great way to unplug
I have to say I was a little nervous about the lack of water coming into the house. BUT I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to take showers, use sinks, etc. A great quiet location with just the creek sound in the backyard.

Rustic Retreat
We had a wonderful stay at the Enchanting A-Frame Cabin. Betty sent helpful directions before our departure, and the cabin had a binder which clearly outlined rules as well as some suggestions for local destinations. The cabin was remote and very private, aside from the neighbor's dog, Tess, who we were delighted to befriend (and was mentioned in the listing). Tess was super friendly and got along fine with our dog. I couldn't get over how well-supplied the cabin was with all the little amenities one might not remember to pack; kitchen necessities, bug spray, shampoos, flashlights, earplugs, matches, plenty of blankets, you name it! We especially enjoyed a diverse range of CDs, VHS, and DVDs provided by the host. The cabin doesn't have running water, but the host provided plenty of drinking and cooking water, as well as buckets for other needs. This cabin has lots of rustic charm and was a perfect getaway to rejuvenate our spirits.
