Ranch Style Cabin on 20 Acres in the Beautiful Tunk Valley

Spectacular all round views from this ranch style cabin in the beautiful Tunk Valley -- a little known piece of rustic countryside bordering the Okanogan National Forest, northeast of Omak and near the small town of Riverside.

Enjoy nature from this luxury cabin and wrap-around porch. A birdwatcher's paradise the Tunk Valley also offers breathtaking views, hiking local forest trails, mountain biking the quiet country roads, fishing at Crawfish Lake, and wildlife viewing from the cabin, in the valley, and at the Tunk Valley Wildlife Area. It also offers just living with a frontier feel.

In summer the land is a sea of color from the grasses and wild flowers, and with the backdrop of mountains and dramatic skyscapes the cabin is a nature artists dream. An easel is provided in the main bedroom, inspiration is provided all around.

In winter the surrounding area offers cross-country and backcountry skiing, snowmobiling, and snowshoeing. The cabin is five miles from Crawfish Lake, which usually freezes hard enough to snowmobile, ski or skate on. Local skiing areas include Loup Loup Pass and Havillah, both about one hours drive away.

For those not wishing to drive the cabin sits on 20 acres of private land, where guests are free to wander. A walk around the perimeter is three quarters of a mile.

The cabin itself is at an elevation of around 3,000 feet, and stays a bit cooler than down in the valley. The main floor has a gorgeous living room with a gas cast iron stove for those cozy evenings. There is a large fully equipped kitchen and dining area, and a private master bedroom with bathroom. Upstairs it has two large bedrooms, and a full bathroom. A huge detached double garage is also available.

The cabin is approximately 14 miles from the historic country town of Riverside and the Okanogan River, nearby towns include Omak, Okanogan and Tonasket. The Many Lakes Recreational Area offers many summer activities for boaters and fishermen. Local events include the Omak Stampede and other county fairs. Easy day trips include the Tunk Valley Wildlife Area, the Stonerose Fossil beds, the state park and historical sites at Conconully, the sparkling and unspoilt Omak Lake, the ghost town of Molson, the Loomis National Forest, the Methow Valley, and the North Cascades National Park.

Family vacation
Rustic cabin with beautiful wrap around porch. Perfect for our stay and family. Cabin had one TV in upstairs bedroom. All three bedrooms had full size beds which was disappointing. Upon arrival we had to wash and fold dirty towels and linens. The refrigerator had moldy foods that we had to dispose of. The biggest concern is the kitchen stove; the knobs on the stove do not work and we would shut off the propane gas to ensure it was not leaking into the cabin

Great property with 360-degree views. Very secluded - you can see one house on an adjoining property, but it's pretty far away. Nice wrap-around porch. Great place to unwind and get away from it all.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. Well maintained home with lots of collectibles, books, etc to discovery. Interesting location in an nice valley with cattle farming bordering the national forest (Yellowstone on a smaller scale comes to mind). Did a drive up to old fire lookout on top of Tunk mountain which was great as well!

My only suggestion would be to have the yard more trimmed and watered. Driveway could be weeded or trimmed as well. Nice place overall though.

Found the peace and quiet we were looking for! Stunning sunsets and the night sky was amazing. Numerous shooting stars and saw the ISS pass overhead! Beautiful setting! Property could use some updating, dishwasher not working and BBQ seen better days. We will return to Okanogan County again! Tony

Remote and Quiet
Very nice place. We were in the area for a graduation. Great views from every side. Large piece of property with the nearest house at least 150 yards away. The owner was very responsive to questions. The 35 minute drive to Omak on a twisty road wasn't an issue for us at all. The view around the area is very nice. Tons of Blue Birds. I wish I had some binoculars. They had bird books but sadly the binocular case was empty. Very large rooms and nicely supplied. Sleeping the 5 of us was easy as it could very comfortably have accommodated more people. I would have given it 5 stars if the lawn had been mowed and the deck and deck furniture had been cleaned. I definitely would stay here again.

My New Happy Place
I was looking for a quiet place offering solitude and an escape from city life and holy smokes did we find it. The landscape is incredible. Photos do not do it justice. The cabin is well-appointed and comfortable. The property was so much fun to roam. We saw deer multiple times a day. And heard coyotes multiple times a day. The wraparound porch has multiple spots to cozy up and it was a blast to move to different sitting spots as the day went on. If you are interested in stargazing, this is the place for you! The night sky literally took my breath away the first night. I have never been able to see so many stars! We will definitely be renting this beautiful cabin again. Peter was great to communicate with!

Fun holiday week
My husband and I stayed here with our daughter and her partner and their two dogs during the week between Christmas and New Year's. Everyone enjoyed the cozy vibe of the house, the interesting decor, and the big kitchen for making lots of family meals. House is spacious with gorgeous expansive views and big bedrooms. We took lots of walks in the snow--there's a close-by trail system for long walks in the woods. A fun, relaxed winter retreat.

Excellent house, location and beautiful area. House is spacious, clean, well furnished with simple instructions for use and clearing the property. Loved the 20 acres and proximity to Okanogan National Forest. Wildlife is amazing with Harriers, Hawks, Owls, Deer and even 3 Moose on the last day. Amazing.

The property is gorgeous. Views from every window make a perfect photo. I had never been to the Okanogan Highlands before. The drive to the house goes through the valley, through rocky cliffs and up to a plateau of rolling hills.

RATS!
The property is gorgeous, in a secluded beautiful area but this was all undone when rats were discovered inside the house running across the counters and into the cabinets/ stove. Unfortunately, as the person booking on behalf of my techs, I just found this out, so I was not able to bring this to the attention of the home owner when it happened. Beautiful home otherwise. The TV situation could be a little better as there is only 1 small TV in the home.

Nice and peaceful
Great spot to enjoy some time away from the city. I wish the owner would have cleaned the dishes from the previous guest who stayed in the house before us. As soon as we arrived, we had to clean an entire dishwasher full of someone else’s dishes. The refrigerator was also leaking when we arrived, so we had to clean up about a quart of stagnant water from the fridge before we could even use it. The filter was leaking, so every day we had to attend to it. I also wish the owner would have mowed more than a small perimeter around the cabin. My husband and I really wanted to hike around the property, but it was impossible to do so with all of the high grass and weeds. I suspect this isn’t a problem in the winter, but it was in the summer. I also wish the owner would clean the outside furniture. We couldn’t sit anywhere that did not have layers of bird excrement. WFH’ers: Know that there is internet access, but it is too slow to run any sort of VPN. We definitely could not have worked from the property. We also weren’t able to stream any content, and the small television (only one in the entire house that we could find) was a bit dated and had limited channels. But access to email and text messaging services worked great! All of that being said, the house was lovely, quaint, and exactly what we needed. We were looking to mostly disconnect, and we were able to do just that! It did get quite hot, but the air kept up and we really enjoyed our long weekend at the house. We got to hear a pack of coyotes take down some prey on our first night, and that was quite an experience! I would recommend this property to others for all of these reasons as well as the incredibly affordable nightly price!

Clean, comfortable, and spacious home in a beautiful natural setting. Quiet location that is an ideal home base for hiking, kayaking, and other outdoor activities in the area. The smell of ponderosa pine in the morning, excellent views of the stars at night, and plenty of solitude.

The house was spacious and light, and had everything and more, including a lot of interesting artworks. The gorgeous 360 degree view and wraparound porch were a big treat. I did a lot of reading and enjoying the peace of this beautiful unspoiled place. Check-in was easy and host was responsive. I hope to come back.

Breath of fresh air
Rental process was easy. Good communication and no hiccups. House is very comfortable. Two large bedrooms upstairs and one large bedroom down. Bathroom on each floor. 360 degree decks are amazing. 20 minutes or so out of town, maybe more/less depending on how you drive the windy road. But very peaceful and quiet at the house. And ohhh, the stars! Lots of hummingbirds, but not a lot of other birds or animals. It was pushing 100 degrees daily though. Which, AC worked well and kept us comfortable. No problems and discussing a return trip next spring.
