WHY GUESTS CHOOSE THE GATEWAY
Wake to the sound of the Skykomish — the river is both the view and the soundtrack.
A sauna, hot tub, and cold plunge, all yours. No schedules, no sharing.
Trailheads, Stevens Pass, and Cascade drives minutes from the door.
The stays speak for themselves
«The space was tastefully decorated, immaculately clean, and equipped with all the amenities one could ask for…We truly appreciated the host's attention to detail and their commitment to making our stay unforgettable.»
THE EXPERIENCE
Mornings start slow — coffee on the deck with the river running below and mist lifting off the trees. Days are for trailheads and mountain drives; evenings belong to the sauna, the hot tub, and the cold plunge, in whatever order the weather suggests.
In summer the river is for swimming and long light; autumn turns the valley gold; winter brings snow to the passes and steam rising off the water. It's the same home, four different trips.
