Perfect place for our Sisters Retreat
Terri's home is a lovely place. We felt we were in a retreat center. The sustainable practices are noble, and we learned some things about decreasing our footprint on earth. Terri brought fresh veggies and beautiful flowers to the house for us. The home has many seating areas for dining, hanging out, crafting, creating, and relaxing (the tub was fabulous). The expansive front porch was perfect for breakfast and dinner and the circle porch area made a great outdoor yoga studio. The house is close to many hikes and Diablo Lake which we enjoyed very much. A wonderful stay for all of us!

Unique location close to Cascades
This VRBO was a great location that allowed us access to many of the hikes we wanted to do in the North Cascades park. The park itself is only about 15 minutes away and our favorite hike, Cascade Pass and Sahale Arm Trail, ended up being about 1 hour away. The cabin itself is 3 stories and the second and third story are quite spacious, about the size of a condo each. We had everything we needed and the place was really clean. The location is unique and our host, Terri, is a wonderful person. It is a large property with others living on the grounds tending to a large, natural garden. While staying there, Terri gave us a tour which included exploring natural berry bushes, munching on hand picked snow peas, and feeding the chickens. The kids really got into it by helping to hunt down and remove thistle, which is an invasive species. They also learned about sustainable farming practices along the way. Make sure you read the property description and understand the requirements, as they are different from most stays. That being said, if you have an open mind and a willingness to experience something different, this could be a fun stay. As noted, Terri is a great host with a big heart, so I would definitely recommend this location.

Large home offering respite from the city
This place is a unique get-away, offering tranquility, comfort, and memories. We enjoyed the uniqueness this place offered, from the tub bath to the view from the upstairs deck, we enjoyed our stay. I had the large upstairs suite, and I slept like a baby. The kitchen is well-equiped, there are lots of games for entertainment, and the yard is large with lots of flowering plants. We just enjoyed everything. Terri is a gracious hostess, and had some fresh fruits and veggies in the fridge when we arrived. Thanks for everything, Terri!

Lovely base for exploring North Cascades
Four of us stayed here for a week while day-hiking in the North Cascades. We really appreciated the eco-friendly emphasis -- the ability to compost, recycle, and set aside food scraps for the chickens; the encouragements to conserve water and other resources; the fresh, homegrown produce; the synthetic-fragrance-free zone. Terri even permitted us to try charging our electric rental car overnight. While the electrical system ultimately proved unequal to the task, the experience was emblematic of Terri's warm efforts to be accommodating. The house is full of character, and we found it nice and cozy when we had a fire going several chilly nights. Those with mobility challenges should be aware that the stairs to the top floor are quite steep. Distances to some of the North Cascades NP trailheads are long, but Rockport State Park and Sauk Mountain afforded some nice options nearer by. Overall, a lovely stay!

Visit to North Cascades National Park
Terri's large home was absolutely lovely in every way. The location made it perfect to explore North Cascades National Park for a few days of great hiking. It was a wonderful place to come home to at the end of the day. The steps to the upper bedroom floors (particularly the wonderful master suite on the third floor) were not an issue for us, but worthy of consideration if you have mobility issues. Terri lives on site and was a marvelous host. Absolutely, we would stay there again.
