Summary: My extended family had a great stay in this house. We loved strolling the neighborhood, my kids loved playing in the lake and there was plenty of space for the whole group to spread out. The place was easy to find and well located to day trip up to North Cascades National Park. I highly recommend this spot for an easy, relaxing family gathering.
