About this cabin rental

Built in 1901 by some of the earliest settlers in the Lake Wenatchee valley, this unique log home has been lovingly owned and maintained by their direct descendants ever since. All the hand built charm and rustic beauty are intact, but now coupled with amenities such as electricity (1920s) indoor plumbing (1940s) and high speed, fiber optic, wi-fi (2008). Most recently, we've remodeled the kitchen/dining area to a more open floor plan, and the downstairs bath just because… well, it really needed it. And we added a hot tub. Aahhhhhh.

The homestead occupies 15 private, peaceful acres and is a destination of its own, or a fabulous base camp for the area's many outdoor activities. It's only 25 minutes to either Steven's Pass or Leavenworth. Without even getting back in the car, you can cross country ski, snow shoe, sled, hike, bike, swim and mountain climb. There are chickens laying eggs, and our horses grazing in the pastures.

The house is furnished with an eclectic mix of comfy antiques, many of which have been here for generations. It easily acommodates your family (2 king beds, 2 doubles, and a full finished attic.) When you settle in for that second cup of tea, you know you're nestled in walls constructed of virgin timber and built by hand without electricity or fossil fuel. The cozy feel of the house takes you away from the cares of modern life, and back to a simpler time.

The Brown Family Homestead is the perfect place to get away from it all and reconnect with yourself and your loved ones. Make it your second home, but without the headaches of ownership.

The Brown Family Homestead is a special place any time of year, and a wonderful place to make memories. Lots of space, well-appointed, wonderful communication.

Upstairs bedroom windows were painted shut, no fresh air. I don’t believe this is legal! Fridge wasn’t clean. Electric tea kettle had stale water and a dead bug in it. The “new hot tub feature” was a very well used hot tub. Hot tub was stinky. Had to find the chemicals for it and add water. Under sink in kitchen had a rusty and gross sponge holder. No clean new clean sponges for sink. Had to use Clorox wipes to clean the table and counter tops. A lot of dust that had obviously been sitting for some time. The broom was full of dog hair which got on the floor when I swept. Some weird hole patching in the kitchen with a Brillo pad. No WiFi due to the storm. Also no way to watch tv. Host had to bring us a dvd player. No spatula in the kitchen. Couldn’t even get in the door as the wrong code was sent to me. Not what we expected out of a wedding venue that charges 400 per night. Carbon monoxide alarm started going off in the middle of the night and wouldn’t stop. Were we bring poisoned with carbon monoxide??? Beautiful property but the house needs a serious deep clean.
