Christmas Getaway
We’re so glad we got to spend our Christmas week here! The cabin is charming and cozy, incredibly close to the city too so runs to the grocery store or main Leavenworth area wasn’t a pain. Neighborhood was quiet. Overall, the views and home made the holiday season enjoyable.

Can't wait to stay here again
Wonderful property in a superb location for hikes in and around the enchantments. Didn't have to deal with any of the Leavenworth crowds which was great. House very clean very comfortable and beds were great. Our only negative points were that the upstairs bathroom was missing a bath mat for when we got out of the shower and one of the remote controls for the electronics downstairs was short of battery. Otherwise this place was absolutely perfect and we look forward to staying again

Backpacking the Cascades
This property was clean & well furnished. While some of us backpacked in the Cascades, other family members used the rental as a home base while exploring Levenworth and the surrounding area. The location was quiet, lots of sleeping options, great deck space for relaxing.
