About this home
Sky River Lodge is a rare South Fork Skykomish River retreat where handcrafted log construction, direct river access and four-season recreation come together in one unforgettable setting. Set on 0.73± acre with 149± feet of no-bank frontage, the 2,268± SF, 2-bedroom, 1¾-bath lodge was built from exceptionally large logs harvested from the property and shaped with traditional Norwegian-notch joinery. Inside, vaulted ceilings, broad windows and a two-story river-rock fireplace create a warm mountain-lodge atmosphere. Step outside to the expansive two-tiered deck, river-facing hot tub, fire pit and lawn overlooking the water. Fly fish for trout from the property, explore nearby trails and waterfalls, raft the Skykomish, or reach Stevens Pass skiing in approximately 25 minutes. A separate storage building offers space for skis, fishing gear and outdoor equipment. Fiber-optic service, a heat pump with electric backup, metal roof and community well support comfortable year-round use. Wildlife sightings include deer, bald eagles, black bear and river otters. Substantially furnished and offered with an established Airbnb/VRBO rental history, the lodge is well suited for personal use, a four-season getaway or continued income potential. Paved access keeps Seattle, Stevens Pass and Leavenworth within practical reach, while the mature forest and river create a true sense of privacy and escape.
