It doesn't get much better than this lakeside cabin located in Mount Vernon, Washington, United States.
Wake up to views of the lake in this 900 square foot, one bedroom, 2 bathroom home that sleeps up to 4 people. This large 6-acre retreat is private, yet has convenient access to I-5 and the nearby tulip fields in Mount Vernon, Washington. Three acres are dedicated to the cabin, pond, and surrounding grounds, with the house on the upper three acres. Shop Tiny Homes This is the perfect getaway for small families or a romantic weekend. Most of the cabin guests come back annually and have made staying at the cabin a family tradition for birthdays, anniversaries, or other special occasions.
Out of respect for the neighbors, the cabin is not offered as a venue for parties and they stick to the cabin limit of four people (small groups of short-term visitors are fine).
Although some of the guests take advantage of the convenient location to all that Skagit Valley has to offer, many come to the cabin and don't leave until their checkout time. The grounds are well landscaped and include a turquoise half-acre pond. The pond is strictly available for the VRBO guests, the owners only use it on those rare days when the cabin is not booked. They have horseshoes and corn hole for an evening of fun or sit by the fire pit. You can enjoy a refreshing swim on a warm summer day or fishing when the temperatures cool down. The lake loses fish in the warmer summer months, so they ask the guests to not fish in June, July, and August. The owners just purchased a stand-up paddle board for guests to use during the warmer months. Finish the day with a relaxing soak in the hot tub.
The cabin is fully furnished for all of your in-home needs and is comfortable for up to four guests.
The cabin has a queen-sized bed and double futon in the upstairs spacious master bedroom as well as a queen-sized sofa bed in the living room. The only thing you will need to bring is your clothes, a swimsuit, and a steak for the BBQ. The cabin has satellite TV, DVD, and wireless internet (there is no landline phone available.) The kitchen is fully stocked with all appliances, including a griddle, coffee maker, coffee beans and grinder, microwave, electric hot pot, slow cooker, and many spices.
