3150 Cowiche Mill Road, Yakima, WA 98908
What's special
Two Homes, One Legacy: Your Mountain Retreat Awaits Tucked at the base of Snow Mountain along the South Fork of Cowiche Creek, this hand-scribed log home was built log by log from 16-inch Douglas Fir and Western Larch. Inside, a chef's kitchen features quartz counters and recycled wine-barrel cabinetry, anchored by a custom stone fireplace and pizza oven hand-built by local artisan Bob Gossett. Wide-plank hardwood floors, wool carpeting, and a Net Zero solar system bring rustic soul and genuine luxury without the environmental cost. Upstairs, the beautifully restored 1900s Whutke Cabin offers its own wraparound porch, bathroom, shower, and fire pit — ideal for guests or a private retreat. Outside, watch elk wander past from the porch: the property borders the Cowiche Wildlife Area's elk feeding station. Fish or relax along the creek at your gated, private drive, or explore the certified Heritage garden and wildlife habitat. The Snow Mountain Ranch trailhead, gateway to the 80-mile William O. Douglas Trail, is just a mile away — yet Harvest Foods, schools, the post office, Cowiche Creek Brewery, and Cowiche Canyon Conservancy are all minutes away, with Tieton's shops and cafés a short drive beyond. This rare offering combines a hand-built log masterpiece, a piece of local history, and a setting made to be shared across generations. 3150 Cowiche Mill Road isn't just a home for sale — it's an invitation to a different way of living.

Travel times
Living Room & Stone Fireplace; A hand-built river rock fireplace anchors the room framed in 16-inch Douglas Fir, built to gather around.
Dining Room, Fireplace & Pizza Oven; An antler chandelier and a hand-built stone pizza oven turn every dinner into an occasion, craftsmanship you can taste as well as see.
Chef's Kitchen; Quartz counters and reclaimed wine barrel cabinetry pair rustic character with real function. A kitchen built by hand, not off a shelf.
Wraparound Porch; A full wraparound porch invites morning coffee or evening quiet. Log posts, wide plank decking, and views into the trees on every side.
Primary Bedroom; Tucked under vaulted timber breams with a peaceful window view, this room feels more retreat than bedroom.
Guest Bedroom, Vaulted Beams; Exposed timber framing and generous proportions make this second bedroom feel just as considered as the primary.
Sun Room; A wall of windows off the log home frames the surrounding oaks and pines. A flexbinle, light filled space ready to become a lounge, office, or year round garden room.
Whutke Cabin Wraparound Porch; A covered rustic porch, just the kind of spot that makes a guest never want to check out.
Whutke Cabin Great Room; An open kitchen and living area with log walls. Real counter space makes this far more than a rustic bunkhouse.
Whutke Cabin Bathroom; A bathroom finished in knotty pine with a modern vessel sink. Everything a guest needs, steps from the main house.
