Lakehouse Getaway For Fun In The Sun

This custom Lake Cavanaugh home with finished walkout basement and loft, is the ultimate retreat for family and friends - and only 90 minutes north of Seattle. If you are former guests of Mary's Quilting Cabin, please contact me to learn about our special accommodations for you and your group. We have 10 quilting tables and folding chairs, extra lighting, cutting mats, and other accessories.

Nestled amongst lovely mature trees, with a private dock and boat slip, this spectacular home provides ample space for joint family getaways or large groups. Enjoy the amazing views of Lake Cavanaugh and the beautiful snow capped mountains. The lovely stone fireplace and 8 person hot tub, makes this home the perfect year-round getaway.

The house has 2 bedrooms, a bonus room, a large walkout basement, huge loft & 2 full bathrooms. Our lakehouse sleeps 12 very comfortably. The open kitchen is well stocked with all the necessities from home. It's perfect for entertaining and you'll love the granite island with extra seating, stainless appliances, and Keurig coffee maker. There are plenty of cozy couches and chairs to curl up and read, nap (pack & play provided) play a game or just relax & enjoy the view. The gas fireplace provides warmth and ambiance or you can head out back to the fire pit to roast marshmallows if you prefer. Enjoy your fun in the sun, while setting the DVR to record your favorite shows or login to our Smart TV for a relaxing evening by the fire. We also provide a small selection of books and movies for your entertainment. Relax with a good book and a glass of wine on the floating dock or in the hammock chair - the sunsets are spectacular!

Outside, there are never-ending possibilities for fun. Relax in the private hot tub, take a peaceful paddle in our 2 tandem kayaks provided, or enjoy a variety of other boating activities. The lake is the perfect place to spend summer days, playing with the kids and swimming. Our western exposure provides ample sun all day. Bring your boat and spend the day swimming, water-skiing or tubing. If you like fishing, the season is open year round. The main species are rainbow and cutthroat trout, as well as brook trout, largemouth bass and kokanee.

The surrounding area has quad trails, hiking, and wonderful biking opportunities. The paved road around the lake is about 8 miles around and well traveled by homeowners and guests. Keep a look out for deer, bald eagles and plenty of other wildlife while you're enjoying the splendor of the lake and surrounding area.

For other activities near by, you can enjoy a round of golf at Overlook Golf Course (20 min away) or Eaglemont Golf Course (30 min away in Mount Vernon). There are also 3 major casinos within 30 to 45 minute's drive: Angel of the Winds, Tulalip Casino and Quil Ceda. While you're in town, you can also hit the outlet mall in Tulalip or head north to the Burlington outlet mall.

Take a day trip to the San Juan Islands by catching a ferry at Anacortes, just under an hour's drive. The San Juans by ferryboat is a beautiful way to experience the Puget Sound.

In the spring, the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival is a wonderful event to attend. You can get there easily within 30 to 40 minutes. Don't forget your camera to capture the colorful display. The Kangaroo Farm in Arlington makes a wonderful outing, especially if you have kids who will enjoy feeding and petting various animals.

During fall and winter, cozy up in front of the fire with a puzzle, board game or good book after a bike ride or hike around the lake. The mountains and trees take on a fabulous glow under a dusting of winter snow.

Your family & friends will leave Lake Cavanaugh wanting to return! We know you will enjoy this piece of paradise as much as our family does.

Beautiful spot
Lovely home and location. Comfortable beds. Nice gas fireplaces made it cozy. We loved finding our favorite movies on VHS! Such a fun nostalgic piece- we watched a bunch of them, not even touching the DVDs ☺️

The house worked beautifully for our 3 generation family get-together. Location is outstanding, and we were able to take full advantage of the dock and the lake with a gorgeous weekend. The kitchen is well stocked, lots of puzzles, activities for everyone.

summer family gathering
Beautiful spot although dock is across the road down a very steep slope. Everything in house was great but bedding needs to be updated. Kitchen island was great spot to fill with food the entire weekend. Made music and good memories though didn't use fire or fire table and with burn ban no outdoor fire ring. Thank you.

Summer getaway
Our family (Mom, dad, 3 adult children, 2 grandchildren, and grandma) had a great time at this property. Having access to the lake, boat dock, and kayaks made the stay extra special during the day; while the hot tub and fire pit made for relaxing evenings. There were ample towels, blankets, and pillows, and more than enough silverware and utensils for all of us. However I gave it a 4 star rather than 5 due to the parking being very steep and hard to get to, especially with a larger truck. Also, the bushes on the front side of the patio were so overgrown, they blocked the entire pathway to the patio and even extended to the outdoor dining area, calling on quite a few mosquitoes.

Beautiful spot, pictures look just like the house. Host gives accurate information and very detailed. We could never figure out the ceiling speakers so the tv seemed quiet to us but that’s minor detail. Room for everyone and over all great experience!

Great home with many amenities
We wanted a large home that had lake access and a dock for our boat, and this property delivered! It has many amenities, including hot tub and private dock with water toys. We were very pleased with the condition of the home and it was comfortable! We would definitely recommend!
