The place is located in a remote area, far away from any grocery store or medical help. We arrived very late and it was dark so it was hard to find the way to the property. However when we open the door, it was a very nice layout, very clean and with good decoration. Unfortunately the host never follow up or responded to my messages. Overall I recomend this place. The view is very nice and it’s close to the river which you can see through the windows

Must Stay Rental!
We absolutely loved our stay! The rental was beautiful! The river views from the main living area through the picture windows are amazing, but the outdoor space is really the show stopper! The outdoor heater made the deck the perfect spot for a cup of coffee on a cool fall morning and the river is so relaxing to watch and listen to. Loved having lots of clean, comfy space to come back to after a day of exploring. Perfect retreat for our group. Will be highly recommending to any friends/family headed to the Seattle area in the future!

Perfect and Peaceful
We loved this place! We especially loved that it was tucked away so you had the illusion of being in a secluded location with groceries, shopping, and dining within minutes! Our host had all that we needed and more. We would definitely come back here again if we ever needed a place to stay near Seattle. Our only “complaint” if you could call it that is that our bed was too soft for us, but that is personal preference. The other couple that stayed with us had no problem with their bed.

Outstanding
The pictures do not do this property justice. We came for a wedding and didn't want to leave this property. My 91 year old mother, who can't see well, was very impressed. Her comment: maybe a shelf in the master shower as was difficult for her to bend down to get her shampoos. Also the steps to the main living area, for her, were a tripping hazard as was difficult for her to see as they blended in to the floor. Other than that, she (a realtor) was surprised at the decor and was very impressed that it was not "old/used furniture" "Beautifully done". For me and all of my family, the river was peaceful, the home was very comfortable. This property fit our needs perfectly and was very clean/warm/welcoming and the perfect de-stressor we were looking to achieve. My only regret is we didn't stay longer, however would love to book again. It is a beautiful home with beautiful surroundings.

Our Home Away From Home
What a Beautiful Cabin! Our family was so happy here! It seems they thought of everything from family games to building blocks for kids (our two four year olds love building) to childproof locks on the doors; we could not have been more pleased. After busy days in Seattle, coming home to our peaceful cabin and outdoor water views was priceless to us. Our host Ashley was REALLY a super-host! We discovered we locked ourselves out at 10:30pm after my sons wedding. Ashley responded immediately and then called to be sure we were able to get in. Ashley also gave us a later check out time as we were taking a late flight back to Maine; a gift especially with our two four year olds. Thank you Ashley! We will miss being there and will be back!

Had the best time! So many fun things to do such as ping pong, bean bag toss, darts, games, fire pit, and an amazing view of the river right in your back yard. The house is beautiful. Our host Ashley was also amazing. She responded very quickly and allowed a late check out to accommodate our late flight home. Will definitely book again. Check in process was simple. Thank you so much!

Cedar creek rental
We really enjoyed the property. It is right on the river and it would probably be beautiful to sit outside but we had very rainy weather. The house was clean and well stocked. Very comfortable beds. Good communication with host. We would definitely stay again.

Beautiful cozy place on the river
Beautiful property just steps from the Cedar River. The house is surrounded by, you guessed it, stately western red cedars, which really stood out against the blanket of freshly fallen snow. A cozy gas fireplace/stove, well appointed kitchen, comfy beds and plenty of games made for a memorable stay. The Christmas tree and other seasonal decorations were a nice touch. And the property manager is a good communicator. Would love to stay here again on a return trip.

This cabin was gorgeous and clean! Check-in and communication with Ashley was great. Very relaxing ambiance and soothing river in your backyard. The fireplace in the den made for a cozy warm evening! Location was just right, away from the city but close enough to enjoy surrounding attractions. Loved the welcome gifts! Highly recommend!! :)

Secluded Gem on a Babbling River
A+ property -- beautiful location in the trees on a river with lots-o-deer (think Twilight), beautifully decorated, spacious rooms, comfortable beds, well appointed kitchen, good water pressure, nice outdoor space (when it's not raining), entertainment (tv, games, books, PING PONG). Great communication with host when we needed extra set of sheets and when wind temporarily knocked the power out. Will definitely look this home up when next I need overnight accommodations near Seattle. Highly recommend.

Beautiful house.
Beautiful house. Beautiful location on the river. The "shack" next door was a bit scary. We stayed here because my sister lives 2 miles away. We couldn't get the tv to "play" anything. We couldn't get the gas fireplace to turn on (no pilot light, coupler bad?). It would be helpful if there was a book/binder at the property telling you how to use things, etc.

Beautiful home and backyard
The backyard that borders the river is beautiful. The home’s layout was spacious with a sitting area and family room centered around the kitchen. It would be perfect for families. Ashley was great with communication before we checked in. We were a little disappointed with the cleanliness —there was food in the oven, the floors were dusty and the glass door had fingerprints. Easily fixable. One suggestion would be for somewhere to place your bath items in the primary shower.

Peaceful and relaxing river retreat!
Beautiful property nestled along the river in Maple Valley, WA! If you are looking to just relax and enjoy the dense trees, sound of the river, and nearby trails, this place is for you. The backyard was our favorite place to hang out - the back patio spanned the entire length of the house, and there were numerous seating areas, all with views of the river. It was quiet, shady, and only 30 minutes from the airport, but felt like we were worlds away! We were rarely inside other than to prep meals and sleep, but there are ample seating areas, 2 full bathrooms, and three bedrooms. Getting to the property the first time can be a bit tricky, but after the first time, it's much easier. On the drive in from the airport, there is a spot where you can see Mount Rainier (can even pull over and get a great photo!).
