We got 4 families together for a few days and had a great time. The house was clean and well-kept. The kitchen had all the implements we needed and the hot tub was fun. Great place for fun with friends.
The house had plenty of room for a large group and all the amenities you need for a stay! Very clean, comfortable, and quick drive to town if needed. Would definitely stay again!
Beautiful home, very quiet neighborhood. Large open concept layout that was great for hosting our friends and family weekend. We would absolutely recommend this home and would love to stay here again. Lots of games as well which was nice! Fire pit out back (under snow but worth uncovering!)
We had a wonderful stay with our extended family! The house was beautiful, clean, and well stocked. There was something to keep everyone busy and entertained. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and huge outdoor area. Check in was right on time and super easy. Would highly recommend this property!
I rented this house to celebrate my 50th birthday with some friends, we all had such a wonderful time. Everything was spotless, everything was there that we needed, close to everything. Definitely would recommend this place.
My group and I had an excellent experience! The home was clean, beautiful and spacious. Most importantly, the host was super communicative, understanding and flexible with some last minute requests. Several great amenities. Couple things we really enjoyed was the hot tub and game room. Thank you Vacation Rental 365!

This property was very clean and well thought out! 18 of us had no troubles being there together for 9 nights. Besides a beautiful and easy to use home, the outside areas were well designed, with great walking options. The property management was attentive and quite responsive. Thank you for providing a great place for so many of us to gather!

We had a nice visit to this home. Traveled with 4 families, all with little kids. Plenty of space to spread out. Lots of small touches like board games, extra chargers, and labels in the kitchen.

We had a group of friends and their kids at this lovely house recently and would definitely recommend it! The big living room/dining room/kitchen was perfect for everyone to enjoy meals, movies, and games together. The hot tub was well maintained and the attached game room was getting constant use as well. Also, the management company was responsive to our requests - all in all we had a great trip!

Our extended family had a great time together at this property. It is such a fantastic location for privacy and relaxation away from city life. It was close to Cle Elum Lake and river, which we really enjoyed. It is also close to the towns of Ronald, Roslyn, and Cle Elum which were just minutes away if anything was needed. However, we did spend most of our time at the residence. The game room, fire table, and hot tub were enjoyed by all. Not to mention the board games and others that are stocked there. I would recommend this location to anyone with a family group. Everything you need is all there!

Reviewer Comments:
The house had enough space for my entire party. We had a total of 12 adults and 6 children. Property was located in a great location if you intend to rent snowmobiles and take them up to the mountains because there are trails that take you up. The house was equipped with everything you need for cooking. The only 2 thing negatives were that they are cameras facing the hot tub which was a little weird. And then working with the actual property management. James, however was great to work with. Everyone else would always have to get back to me. I called to ask for an early check-in because some folks from my party didn’t want to drive up in the dark. They gave me mixed answers about the request and finally told me that they could not accommodate an early check-in 30 minutes until I actually had to check in which was a little annoying.
Wonderful stay -- the house is spacious, the upstairs bunk room and the game room were perfect for the kids. The kitchen had plenty of dishware for a crowd and the hosts were communicative and welcoming.
Great property, great location. Close to lake, activities on-sight, easy to get to Roslyn, Ronald and Cle Elum. Deer and wild turkeys on the property every day. Kids, grandkids and grandparents all had a wonderful time.
