Enjoy a comfortable stay near Lake Tapps & the towns of Sumner, Bonney Lake, Puyallup, Auburn, Enumclaw, Federal Way, Tacoma. 10 minutes to major freeways. Near area hospitals, White River Amphitheather, State Fairgrounds & more! The resident "rogue bunnies" will welcome you-they're the REAL owners of the cabin! Your cabin in the woods is about 580 sq ft, built in 2008 with hand-peeled logs, remodeled as a guest house & Airbnb-ready in December 2016. Resident bunnies will "hang out" with you. They love to be talked to & photographed. Colorful hummingbirds will feed right in front of your rocking chair on the porch. The gentle deer are more elusive, but watch for them as they quietly walk past the cabin. Bushy gray squirrels scamper around the yard & would love a peanut or two. Yes, we have Bald Eagles & huge owls, too. IMPORTANT NOTE: The guest who books the stay MUST be the guest who checks in for the key & will be living in the cabin during the whole stay. All adults must be at the check in meeting prior to getting a key. All the essentials for a relaxing stay: (see pictures) * King-size Select Comfort bed with dual control heated mattress pad.

In Summer, please check with host about possible local burn bans before lighting a fire. If you have a very late arrival flight, CONTACT HOST for a possible FLEXIBLE CHECK-IN TIME. I will meet you at the cabin for a quick tour at check in time & will be otherwise available for questions throughout your stay. There is a binder in the cabin with lists of "things to do-places to see". I can give advice about local restaurants, area shopping for groceries & places of interest. Text or call me... or just walk down the road to the main house for a visit. Our neighborhood is "rural-looking" with pastures, rabbits, spring-time ducks, bald eagles, owls, squirrels & deer as neighbors. On a gravel road but 10-15 minutes drive to highways & freeways. Close to beautiful Lake Tapps, the county's largest recreational lake with 2 public parks with beaches, paddle boat and board rentals at the lake. (seasonal entry & not within walking distance) There is a well-traveled road behind the cabin (which sits on a high bank). Most guests tell me their home has more noise than the cabin. Only 10 mins drive to either quaint downtown Sumner, Bonney Lake or Lakeland Hills for shopping and restaurants. 15 minutes to Puyallup - WA State fairgrounds and events, many local hospitals within 25 mins. An hour in either direction will get you to ski resorts on Snoqualmie Pass or Crystal Mountain. 2 hours to Paradise Mt Rainier, less than an hour to Seattle or the White River Amphitheater for concerts & half that time to downtown Tacoma (try the train!) There is no public transportation at the cabin, Uber and Taxi service is available. Train/bus station is in downtown Sumner, 15 mins drive. In effort to comply with COVID cleaning rules, perishable food & treats are no longer provided at the cabin but information about local grocery stores, restaurants (etc) is in the "cabin book'. * There is NO SMOKING OR BURNING ANYTHING ANYWHERE INSIDE log cabin. Including cigars, cigarettes, e-cigs, cannabis or candles. Smoking on covered porch or around fire pit is allowed with respectful disposal of cigarette butts (please ask for a special disposal can.) And safety being of utmost importance. *The guest making the reservation MUST be the guest who checks-in, is issued the key and will stay in the cabin for the entire reservation. *There is no dishwasher, no cable at the cabin. Internet service installed January 2018. *Remember: NO PETS or animals of any type are allowed on the property at any time, even leashed.
