This is an enchanting little cabin that will surprise and delight its every guest. The owners of this cabin have poured so much love with attention to detail into this retreat so that all its guests feel welcome, inviting and cozy at every turn. If you are looking for a weekend retreat for relaxing, walking, reading a book or visiting with a family member or friend, this is a perfect little escape that will wrap you in comfort and contentment the moment you arrive you simply will not want to leave. Radiant floor heaters, an electric fireplace that is easy to operate, oversized furniture and the unexpected 'light show' that the shower provides (turns color as the water reaches comfortable temperature), is just a treat to experience. The Painted Pony was set up with 'you' in mind, so come give it a ride.
When you pull up, you will come upon a slate path leading to a patio under the covered porch. A propane grill is offered for delicious cooking burgers or steaks any time of year to be enjoyed outside on the picnic table. Through the front door, a quaint kitchen area offers a cozy place to cook with a full-sized stove, refrigerator, microwave, double sink, and coffee bar. A glass kitchen table is providing a comfortable eating place for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. High ceilings, plenty of windows keep this space bright and open in the living room with comfy oversized furniture, electric fireplace mount and flat screen TV with ROKU perfect for movie nights or conversations over coffee.
Two bedrooms one with a queen bed and another with a full of custom storage units and personal touches of decor throughout A full sized bathroom with a double shower, one side has a fun LED light show and the other side hosts a rain shower head. No need to worry about laundry piling up, a stackable washer and dryer are tucked in the closet space off the living room. Small but not lacking in charm.

Was very nice and quiet, clean and comfortable. Did not need to bring much everything need was provided- glasses plates pans coffee and maker. Absolutely the best experience for the first time ever staying in a Vrbo. Would 100% recommend this place to friends and family!
The property was even more charming than advertised. Check-in and check out procedures were very easy. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a quaint and quiet get away.

Mountain retreat
Perfect cozy mountain retreat. The place was so cute, very clean, and well maintained. We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub, taking our meals outdoors on the picnic table, and falling asleep to the quiet hum of the woods. Leavenworth was only a 30 minute drive into town to explore. Highly recommend and would totally stay again!

We are so sorry that you experienced a noisy weekend. We apologize for that and know that week was the 4th of July and was a very busy and active time. The community is generally very peaceful. I hope that you were able to get out and adventure and enjoy the many wonderful things about our area. We would love to have you back using our return guest discount. It is normally a much more relaxing and calm environment and we are so sorry that you had a noisy neighbor.

We were thrilled with this cabin. We stayed over the 4th of July weekend, and were pleasantly surprised how peaceful and quiet it was. Hot tub was a nice treat to enjoy after a day of hiking and exploring. Bonus points for being dog friendly.
We had a wonderful three-night stay right after the Christmas snowstorm. We ventured into Leavenworth one evening to see the Christmas lights - it was quite crowded. More spectacular than the town of Leavenworth is the surrounding area. We loved the drive from Leavenworth to the cabin - absolutely beautiful. We also ventured over to Lake Wenatchee State Park, a quick drive from the cabin. We enjoyed relaxing at the cabin and working on a puzzle we brought from home. Love this area of Washington and hope to come back in the summer/fall to enjoy more of the outdoor offerings.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Painted Pony. The online pictures were exactly how we found it. The hot tub was amazing!! The only draw back was the hot water tank. It seemed to kick on often at night and it is right next to the bedrooms. Other than that, we were very pleased.

neat, clean, cozy. We've stayed here twice now. The biggest complaint is the beds: they make loud noise even when our toddler turns or makes a very light move. It'd also be nice to have a dishwasher.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 Mar 2020
I am so sorry that the beds squeak. I will pass this along to the owners and see if there is something that can be done. The little cabin is just too small for adding a dishwasher but I will see if maybe we can get some paper plates and cut down on the dish washing for people. I hope you enjoyed your stay in this lovely little cabin otherwise. It is such a cozy place and so cute. UPDATE: NEW BEDS HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE CABIN

My husband and I stayed at the Painted Pony Cabin during our visit to Leavenworth Dec 2015 and we loved it. The cabin was clean, tastefully decorated, comfortable, a true home away from home. The only thing we found was missing was a we purchased one in Leavenworth to donate to the cabin. We will definitely return!!

We LOVED staying at this cabin. It was completely perfect for our small family for a weekend. We accidentally broke a glass and one of the tables and they were so good working with us when that happened. We loved having the washer and the dryer available to us as well. Our only complaint would be that it's hard to find it from the road! That alone took us about 10 minutes. But, having it off of the road a bit was also wonderful. We would love to stay here again.

We had our 21st girls weekend here. The neighbors were so welcoming and invited us to a party! LOL the hot tub was wonderful! The cabin was so beautiful and well done. I wouldn't market the heated floors as it' takes a day to warm up lol But i would would go back to this cabin in a minute! Beautiful area and people. A bit of confusion booking the initial reservation through but the people at the Painted cabin rental property made it right.
Response from VrboOwner on 24 Mar 2020
I am so happy that you enjoyed not only your stay at the cabin but that the neighbors were welcoming as well. There can be confusion when you book through a third party website, they simply forward everything to us but it is confusing to a guest who does not realize that they are not booking directly with the actual property manager. I hope that you will choose to come back and stay with us again using your return guest discount. Thank you for being our guests.
Overall the stay was very nice. It's a little further from Leavenworth than we would like, but not bad at around a 23 min drive in winter conditions. The house was big enough for two people and dogs, but i wouldn't want to have another couple with us as the bedrooms are rather small for people and luggage. A couple areas in the house weren't as clean as I would expect.. bath rugs didn't seem clean, a used paper towel on the floor on the side of the couch... The hot tub was a great amenity and the washer/dryer made things easier. I like the online customer portal a lot for getting quick information, but it needs updates. Such as it states the property has a sauna (it doesn't unless we didn't find it). But as we weren't expecting to have a sauna, it didn't ruin our trip. The owner does a good job at making the space comfortable for guests. Overall we had a very relaxing time

Super cute! We love this area! The hot tub was great, the fire pit, the comfy couches, the BBQ, close proximity to the river and Ponderosa Community Park, hiking trails and a quick drive to Plain. We wish we would have brought our Boston Terrier- she would have loved it. 2 complaints: way too friendly of neighbors. We didn't mind the no privacy but it was a bit awkward and I think they and us felt obligated to spark up a conversation. And the beds are not comfortable at all. I think with all the other perks and how the cabin has so much tender love and care put into it that the beds could be a very easy fix. We loved that there were fans in both rooms and the overall size is perfect for our small family! No wasted space at all! The TV and electric fire place super easy to use. The heated floors are perfect! And the rock patio is a great area to set up our travel hammock.

I rented this cabin for myself and my daughter-in-law. We had a great time, the cabin was clean and cozy. It was quiet and we enjoyed how dark it was outside at night, great for viewing stars. I would recommend this cabin.
A quiet cabin in the mountains, yes please! This was the perfect solo getaway. The property was clean and organized. My pup and I enjoyed a quiet and very relaxing stay!
We had a terrific weekend trip to the cabins! The whole process from directions to checkin to checkout was seamless, and the cabin itself was wonderfully appointed and extremely cozy! The Super Nintendo was a small detail but a really fun trip down memory lane!
My family and I had a wonderful time at the cabin! we went to Leavenworth a couple of times, played corn hole. The cabin was very clean, wonderful. We wish the Nintendo would have worked. Thanks for the time away!
