The River House, cozy riverfront home w/private hot tub & fire pit

Located on the Wenatchee River in the rustic community of Ponderosa in Plain, The River House offers space for up to six guests, and is perfect for a family or group of friends. The home features a private hot tub, a riverfront fire pit, and it’s own stretch of private river frontage. The River House is available for a minimum of 30 days and is a perfect winter/summer getaway for the Pacific Northwest. With high speed internet, it's perfect for a medium term stay to play and work remotely.

The home is decorated with inviting cabin furnishings inspired by the surrounding environment. There are two large sectional couches that offer plenty of seating to view movies on the 70” television with Apple TV and streaming services. High Speed Internet (1GB) is provided for streaming and/or for working remotely. The large kitchen is well equipped to whip up a homemade breakfast, lunch or dinner. Enjoy your meal at the six-seat table or take it outside to the back deck to take in the river views. The deck has a propane grill for barbecues and a table top fire pit to keep away the chill.

Up to six guests are accommodated in the three bedrooms. The primary bedroom features an adjustable king size bed, a television, walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom with a large shower, jacuzzi tub, two sinks and separate toilet room. Two other bedrooms have queen beds and share the common bathroom which has a tub/shower combination. A laundry room with a full size washer and dryer is available to refresh your clothing as needed.

If you want to venture out of the community, you’ll find fun day trips await you. Lake Wenatchee State Park is 9 miles northwest and offers boat/board rentals, guided trail rides, miles of bike trails or hike up Dirtyface Peak on nearby Forest Service Land. Another mile north is Fish Lake, known for fishing Largemouth Bass and Brown Trout. If you’re looking for dining and entertainment, the Bavarian-styled village of Leavenworth is 16 miles south featuring year-round fine and casual dining and many wine tasting venues. Stevens Pass is 32 miles to the northwest and has downhill skiing, snowboarding, snow shoeing, a nordic center and hiking/mountain biking in the summer. Ski Leavenworth is another popular destination for winter and summer, and is 17 miles south.

After a day of adventuring, head back to the River House, relax in the private hot tub, and sleep well in the quiet community. Because we rent for 30+ days, you'll also have access to the heated Community Pool between Memorial Day and Labor Day.

Note on Service Fee changes: In order to simplify pricing transparency, VRBO now charges all service fees to owners instead of charging some of the fees to guests and some to owners. 12% of our total listing fee is taken by VRBO.

Off street parking is provided for 2 cars (on street parking is prohibited).

The River House cannot be reserved for less than 30 days, per Chelan County regulations. We enjoy using this property too so we limit the length of rentals to a maximum of 40 days.

NOTE: There are cameras to monitor the exterior of our home for security. The lower cameras will be disabled during your stay, with the cameras in front/rear at the apex of the roof enabled. There are no cameras inside the home.
