About this property

Romantic LOG CABIN on Stilly River w/ Hot tub! Setup for 2 people only

I’m an Artisan Log Cabin perched high above the Stilliguamish River. You can find me hiding in the morning shadow of Mt. Pilchuck and always with a watchful eye on the river valley below. As you drive past my gate and enter the 10+ acre property, you’ll be greeted and surrounded by nature and wildlife on every side. Upon crossing my threshold, you will immediately notice that many moons ago each and every log was meticulously selected, cut, hand-scraped and placed with precision high above the river’s edge. My view from each and every window has your ‘serenity now’ in mind!

Inside my walls, I’m tastefully decorated with stuff of old and new, but I’d much rather draw your attention to the beauty that’s all around me. Sometimes you just need to get away. To rejuvenate your mind, body and spirit, and take a break from society. A cozy, romantic log cabin tucked far away in the forest is perfect for this. No people around, only peace and nature. The forest is not merely an expression or representation of sacredness, nor a place to invoke the sacred; the forest is sacredness itself. It’s a living cathedral! Come and experience this sacredness at the River Ranch. Rest, relax and rejuvenate!

Inside, you’ll have over 2000 square feet to unwind. Outside, you’ll have a nature sanctuary to engulf you.

Cozy up to the wood burning stove with a good book. Soak in the hot tub outside or the jacuzzi bath tub for 2 and watch the hummingbirds right outside. Make s’mores while star gazing. Nap on the handmade swing and listen to the babbling brook that runs along the entire property. Watch eagles catch fish in the Stilly River below. Feed the squirrels, birds and chipmunks on the back deck. Binge watch a show on Netflix or Amazon video on one of the 3 flat screen TVs. Sit on the front porch and watch the deer feed on an apple tree. Cook a meal in the fully equipped kitchen. Reconnect with your partner over a fun board game. Your possibilities are endless at the River Ranch.

Guests have access to everything inside the cabin except the master closet. Guests are not allowed to venture off into any areas of the property with critical slope. **Please note, as this is our personal residence and due to medical reasons, we have a service animal exemption and cannot accept service animals or emotional support animals of any kind.

Charlie, your host, will be in the guest house on the property and can be available as needed.

Beautiful cabin, wonderful view

Absolutely gorgeous! Very relaxing and the view from the cabin is stunning. The hosts stay at a guesthouse on the property, but give you privacy for a romantic stay. It was wonderful for my husband's birthday, would love to come back

One of my favorite places away from home. I love how quiet and relaxing it is to sit on the deck or in the hot tub watching the birds and chipmunks and the river down below. The bed is comfy, the water pressure is fantastic and the kitchen and bathroom have everything you think you might need. The Clarks are the best of hosts. We just love it here!

100% the best and most beautiful property my wife and I have ever stayed at. You feel like you're in a mountain resort. Every detail is covered with the amenities of a 5-star hotel. We can't wait to come back for another romantic weekend. The town of Arlington is nice and we highly recommend stopping at the Stilly Diner for breakfast. On top of all that, we actually got to see the moon rise at 10pm from the hotub! So amazing. Thank you Clark family!

Breathtaking views away from it all

This property is amazing from the second you step on it. You are greeted at the door on your arrival and they make you feel right at home. If this property is available book it don't miss out. The trail is a beautiful trail into the trees and is so beautiful to start your mornin. Dont fordet the beautiful views from the hot tub either. Highly recommend this property.

Great property with great hosts

This was me and my wife’s honeymoon trip, we come from midland Texas and the view overlooking the river was breathtaking. The owners of this property were very friendly and showed us around and made some conversation. We will definitely be back and recommend any couple to book this woodland getaway. The pictures don’t do it justice.

5-Star Anniversary Retreat

My wife and I alternate planning our anniversary each year, and this gem has set the bar incredibly high for her to top next time! We booked Charlie and Jessie’s property for our 6th anniversary, and it was an absolute find.Charlie is a fantastic host. He greeted us warmly upon arrival, walked us through a few simple rules, and was super easy to communicate with throughout our stay. After the initial welcome, he and Jessie gave us complete privacy—we didn’t see them again, which was perfect for our romantic getaway.The photos on the listing don’t do this place justice. The views are breathtaking, and even if you visit during the rainy season, don’t be discouraged. We were lucky to catch a stunning rainbow after a bit of sun, which made the experience even more magical. The property spans 10 acres, offering plenty of space to explore. It’s also conveniently located just 11 minutes from downtown Arlington. For a delicious breakfast, we highly recommend Blue Bird Cafe nearby.Thank you, Charlie and Jessie, for your incredible hospitality and for sharing your gorgeous property with us. We can’t wait to return!

Incredible and unforgettable! A truly special home and property. We went in the fall which was just beautiful with all the leaves on the trees changing colors. The moment we stepped in the front door and saw the gorgeous view out into the mountains and the river flowing through the valley, not only were we blown away by the beauty but we felt so relaxed and comfortable. The Clarks have done an outstanding job of thinking of all the little things one may need to feel comforable and at home. Big comfy recliner chairs with cozy blankets by the huge window, we spent hours and hours in those, just taking in the view. We also spent hours in the hot tub, sometimes just in the quiet looking at the view and also watching Sunday football, which by the way is now the only way to watch football as far as I'm concerned, what a treat! We followed a trail through the woods at the back of the property which led to a little waterfall and some more amazing views. The fresh air was amazing! It really is hard to describe how you feel when you're in this home, it's like no other place we've stayed. Every seat is comfortable, every pillow is plush, no matter where you are in the house you look out to beautiful surroundings. And the house itself is decorated so thoughtfully, you can tell so much love has gone into every little bit.Clarks, we can't thank you enough for opening up your home, and we can't wait to see you again next

Spectacular in every way.

This property is definitely at the top of the list for romantic getaways. The view is like a painting and the wildlife (birds, squirrels and deer) are plentiful. I stayed 2 nights here with my husband and it was perfect. We had all the amenities we needed and felt right at home almost instantly. The bed was comfortable as were the lounge chairs and sectional on the deck. Watching movies while in the hot tub was an added bonus. There are also amazing hikes nearby and great restaurants so you have the best of everything. You could also very easily just stay and relax in the cabin and be very happy. Our hosts were very respectful of our privacy and made sure we had everything we needed. I HIGHLY recommend a stay here. I am sure we will be back and have referred friends already.

About the host

Hosted by Charles Clark

Host profile image
I grew up in the 1940’s in the backwoods of Louisiana next to 10 mile creek. I met my wife, who grew up in Kentucky, while working for the FBI in DC. We eventually migrated to Texas, had a family and retired. We are now here in PNW to be closer to a few of our grandkids.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property the moment we saw it. While it’s completely different from Louisiana and Texas, it is steeped with such a rich and intense beauty that reminds us of our childhood, living in the country and a simpler time. We love being able to share this unique property with others!

What makes this property unique

Once you drive through the gate, you can tell immediately that you’re in a sacred place. However, it doesn’t really hit you until you walk in the front door of the Log Cabin and you’re face-to-face with a view that will literally take your breath away! One of my favorite things is seeing a guest’s face as they walk through the door and see the view for the first time. We get to share that moment together and it truly is PRICELESS!!!
