About an hour east of Seattle and Bellevue—on the dry, sunny side of the pass—this Lake Kachess cabin offers views of the lake and surrounding mountains, a year-round creek and spring on the property, and a setting that gives you access to Kachess at a price point that's increasingly hard to find. Inside, wood floors and an open living area flow out to an expansive deck built for entertaining, sunbathing, or just taking in the view. Removable porch rails make winter snow management on the deck effortless. A wood stove keeps things cozy, fiber optic internet keeps you connected, and a whole-house transfer switch is wired and ready for a generator. Step off the deck into your own forest—hike from the back door, plant a garden, or head up to the loft balcony with a hammock and a book. A trail leads down toward the water, where paddleboarding, swimming, and lazy afternoons on the beach are right at hand. The Kachess HOA takes care of water, garbage, and snow plowing, and includes a community boat launch, clubhouse, and seasonal storage for boats, snowmobiles, quads, watercraft, and other recreational gear. Forest Service roads start steps away—endless trails for hiking, riding, and exploring up to Mt. Amabilis. Easton is minutes down the road for gas, supplies, and a Mountain High burger. Four seasons of adventure with the comforts of full-time living. Come see it today!
