The space
**PLEASE NOTE*** AWD, 4x4 or chains required in winter months, sometimes late fall and early spring!! We have a short, but steep hill.
The Aeneas Valley (pronounced ē knee us) will capture your heart and spirit, it is a magical valley that is quite breathtaking with it's majestic pines, snow covered mountains, creeks, rivers & lakes. The cottage has 2 bedrooms: 1 queen & 1 single bed, a comfy futon in the living area and 1 bathroom. Please note: Both bedrooms have heavy curtains for doors. The single bedroom is shared with the hot water heater, washer & dryer, and electrical panel. The fireplace is electric. The futon is a double bed and we have a memory foam topper for you to put on it, making it even more comfy. There is a fully stocked kitchen, BBQ, fire pit, and cozy hot tub. Pets are not allowed.
We have a brand new 9 hole miniature golf course! It’s fun and challenging for the whole family. Please watch kids and be respectful. Closed during winter due to snow load.
The main house can be seen from the cottage, but there is lots of privacy between the two. We stay to ourselves and let you set the parameters on how much interaction you would like with us. You may see us outside performing normal chores and maintenance from time to time. Please feel free to come over and say hi or let us know how you are doing and if you need anything.
The Cottage is just miles from national forest, 26 miles to Tonasket & 41 to Republic and is close to Sitzmark ski area, Canada and lots of lakes. A great hopping off point for many recreational activities. The Aeneas Valley store is just one and a half miles away and will have about anything you might need, including Not Doug’s Cafe and Espresso (fabulous food).
Feel free to fish for trout in our river (current license required), swim, hike or picnic, anywhere on our 45 acres. There is a public Geo Cache on the property. Partake in our Treasure Hunt Adventure, hike from clue to clue and find the treasure at the end! (A real take-home treasure) (Sturdy hiking shoes recommended… this is a hike and not a quick, simple walk. There are simple walks on the property....) Fire pit open unless a fire ban is on. Wood provided.
We have THE coolest sled hill ever! With no close neighbors, quiet, serenity and peace are yours to enjoy. Great getaway for writers and artists too! We have 2 pair of snowshoes to lend you, and a few sleds..
***4x4, AWD or chains may be required in winter months, late fall or early spring. We have a short, but steep hill just before you get to the cottage.***
We are sorry but no really young children or babies allowed in hot tub. All children must be supervised! Because of previous abuse of the hot tub, adults and supervised older children only please! The hot tub is for leisurely 20 minute soaking and not a swimming pool. When abused, it takes us several days or weeks to clear the water and get it balanced again, and it’s not fair for the next guest! Thank you for understanding!
Be sure and check out the “Guidebook” below for things to do and visit in the area!
We have high speed internet, Netflix and Amazon Prime movies. Built in 2017, the cottage is sure to please.
PLEASE NOTE: We have a young miniature poodle dog you may see on the property named Poppy. Swim, slide, swing, sled, hot tub and recreate at your own risk.
The cottage does not sit directly on the river, but is just a short walk away.
You will have access to all our 45 acres with the river running 1/3 mile through it. No smoking on the property.
We have a “No pet” policy.
