About this property

River's Edge Chalet! Watch Eagles, Ski, Kayak, Hike, Shop!

Come to the Riversong Chalet Retreat and breathe in the peace and tranquility of nature overlooking the white waters of the Snoqualmie River's most southern fork. This charming Chalet has been updated to make for a comfortable and inviting get-a-way! Situated just across from the Palouse to Cascades Trail and nestled in a canopy of evergreens, it is the perfect spot to meditate, read, write, paint or satisfy your hunger to hike, kayak, bike, golf, or ski.

The Chalet has soaring ceilings matched by sweeping views of the boulder-filled, foamy whitewater river and towering fir, aspen, cedar, and hemlock. Eagle and Osprey fish happily here, while Mallards and Heron have also claimed the river for sunning and fishing. Elk, deer, and squirrel can be seen and lend to the feeling of blending with nature. Although located just minutes from I-90, once on the property, you'll feel a million miles away.

The downstairs bedroom is fitted with a queen Tempurpedic mattress. The upstairs loft bedroom has a four-poster with a firmer queen mattress with memory foam toppers for extra comfortable rest. There is also a single sleigh bed in the loft for a child or extra guest. The loft is 400 sq. feet, so there is plenty of room for the cots located in the closet for extra little sleepers! (5 Adults Max) (**Note: There is also a PacknPlay located in the upstairs closet if needed)

The home is cozy and charming with ambient lighting, a spiral staircase to the upper loft, wood floors, and a cushioned porch swing overlooking the river. There is a small bistro table, extra chairs, and a propane BBQ on the deck. ( ***Please do not allow play on the staircase)

We are located 10 minutes from the Snoqualmie Casino, which features world-class dining and entertainment! The town of North Bend is the home of the legendary Twin Peaks filming and Twedes Cafe, where memorabilia abound. Twin Falls St. Park, Mt. Si and trails, Rattlesnake Lake and hiking trails, and the Palouse to Cascade Trail are all within either walking or biking distance or minutes by car. Snoqualmie Pass ski slopes are just fifteen minutes east! We have supplied games and books, TV with Xfinity and internet, and a hearth to warm yourself and loved ones by.

Get past a writer's block, rest from the city's chaos, or just come to have a welcome change of pace! This comfortable nest will be a delight to arrive at and hard to leave!
Tip: Unload car to front deck. Remove your outdoor shoes to bench or handy rack on deck and slip on clean shoes. Then load in! So remember to bring some slippers or slip on shoes!

Cozy cabin next to everything

Our family of four had a lovely stay to celebrate a milestone birthday. Our hosts went above and beyond and even put up birthday decorations in advance! We especially loved that the property was directly on the river and thoroughly enjoyed cozying up next to the fireplace at night. Highly recommend!

Relaxing Getaway Weekend

My family and here stayed the weekend to get away from the city and enjoy some quality time. Many hours were spent around the fire pit and at the grill. We loved spending time amongst the trees with the river flowing in the background. The house warms quickly and is very cozy to get together downstairs and watch tv. Kitchen was well stocked with the equipment we needed to cook with. Would definitely visit again.

Cozy cottage

Very cute and cozy cabin on the South Fork River. Super quiet and tucked behind huge cedar trees. Location is close to North Bend amenities and the Summit at Snoqualmie for tubing, skiing and snowboarding. We enjoyed hearing the river at night that lulled us to sleep. We wished that the weather had afforded us the opportunity to hang out on the deck overlooking the river, but the view from inside was stunning.

Family Wedding

We had my nephews wedding at the North Fork Farms venue. This VRBO was close to the event, but mostly we loved how relaxing it was to stay here. Being so close to the beautiful river and forest surroundings made this stay fun and relaxing. The neighbors were friendly and made us feel like we have known each other for a while. I would stay here again if I ever needed a place to stay in North Bend WA.

River's Edge

This property is beautiful! The driveway is tucked between big tall trees, with a lovely little pebble path to the front of the cottage - absolutely charming! It's almost the last house on the road, and feels quiet. The house itself has a cabin-like atmosphere, and impressive huge windows and sliding glass door that face the back of the house directly above the river! Quiet on the inside, but if you step out onto the huge back porch, the river is loud, with beautiful forest all around. I loved sitting on the porch, or when it was drizzly and cold sitting inside and enjoying the tremendous view right outside the windows! There is a spiral staircase that our kids thought was the epidomy of cool (I wouldn't want babies/toddlers here), but the living room seating leaves a little to be desired. The kitchen was well stocked, and the gas fireplace was super cozy! My one qualm was the requirement to wash the dishes, dry AND put them away before we leave. This is a lot to juggle. Easy to start a dishwasher, but being expected to coordinate drying and putting away dishes before departure is asking a lot compared to other rentals. However, it was worth the stay here for sure, and I would definitely book it again. Lots of cool hikes and waterfalls just 10 minutes in multiple directions! We could've spent a week in that amazing area!

About the host

Hosted by Valerie Fogel & DeAnne Dodson

Host profile image
We have been residents in North Bend since 1997. We fell in love with the mountains and the rivers, the hikes and the scenery. We love to travel, write, paint, and spend time with family and dear friends. Being a part of the Great Pacific Northwest is and will always be a passion. The smell of the fir trees, the roil of the river, the eagle and wildlife that share these vast and intimate spaces are our extended family and never ending source of satisfaction.

Why they chose this property

We bought this home to have a retreat to share with family and friends. It feels miles from the hub-bub of the suburbs or the city, but is actually just minutes away from nightlife or the airport!

What makes this property unique

The most treasured benefit of staying at this property is the close proximity to nature and the serenity and peace that brings!
