Outstanding stay from start to finish!…read more We had an incredible experience at the Loge Hotel in Leavenworth. The atmosphere was welcoming, cozy, and perfectly fit the mountain-town vibe--it immediately felt like a place you want to relax and stay awhile. What truly set this hotel apart, though, was the people. The staff was genuinely friendly and attentive, especially Karen and Juan, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Their warmth and kindness made such a difference and really elevated our stay. Even more impressive, the manager personally greeted us as we walked in, asked how we were doing, and made us feel truly valued as guests. That level of care is rare and says a lot about how well this place is run. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed, appreciated, and taken care of. This is hospitality done right. We'll absolutely be back and will be recommending Loge Hotel to anyone visiting Leavenworth!

We were excited to enjoy a riverside cabin during our stay in Leavenworth but LOGE did not quite…read moremeet our expectations. First, we booked the cabin through Capital One and did not receive any check-in information over text like they usually do. We only learned this once we were AT the cabins. We had to make multiple phone calls while standing outside the cabins in the snow at night. Not ideal. Plus, it took 3 tries to get a code that actually worked to open the front door. Not a great start. Once inside, we noticed multiple Cheerios on the floor and dust on surfaces. The housekeeping was concerning. Wifi was slow, and we had to fuss with the TV to get streaming services to be usable. Not to mention, an additional DAILY fee for things like the Rumpl blanket and cooler that are already in the room, and we didn't ask for? Odd. Anyway, you pay more for less when you stay at LOGE. The river views were great but the actual accommodations are lackluster and left more to be desired. I recommend staying somewhere closer in town and saving yourself the 20min walk each way.

Our wine tour was canceled a few days prior due to an illness. We received Kristy's name and number from a friend at the front desk of our timeshare. I reached out to inquire about a wine tour in the surrounding areas. She DID NOT DISAPPOINT! We had an AMAZING time visiting the surrounding towns. The view at the wineries was gorgeous, we went to some local breweries and did some shopping at an old mill warehouse filled with local food, drinks and gifts. 10 out of 10, I would definitely recommend. I have had a few friends visit there since I went and I shared her contact! She customized our tour based on our interests! Kristy will be my first call on my next visit for sure!

What we didn't know was what a special place Kathy and Brad had created for their guests. Our adventure started once we headed up a gravel road. At first, we thought we'd take a wrong turn - but no sooner that thought than a sign on a tree, "Mountain Home Lodge 2.2miles." We knew we were on the right track. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Sierra and Millie, the MHL doggies. Brad came out with Carlos to say hi, ask if we needed anything- and loaded up our things to take to the cabin. Brad made sure we knew how the things worked, turned on the music, and left us to settle in. The cabin was perfect! Chairs in front of the fireplace, fluffy king-sized bed, large jacuzzi tub, rocking chairs and table on the porch, and a comfy couch in the loft to watch a movie. Small details were not missed - light toiletries, kurieg, and coffee. Blankets on every chair inside and out and plenty of towels. Did I mention the water pressure was awesome!? Around 5:30, we headed to the Lodge for appetizers prepared by Kathy- squash soup shots with crustini, cream cheese, strawberries, and a balsamic glaze. The view was amazing while we munched on our goodies. Kathy and Brad are so friendly and full of easy conversation. After appetizers, we headed back to our cabin and played a couple round of chess - the upstairs hutch had a few games for us to play. We fired up the jacuzzi tub and enjoyed a drink while basking in the mountain. Millie and Sierra stopped by to say goodnight, which we loved being dog people. We sat on the porch with them and watched the sky change from light to dark. In the mornings, there is a delightful breakfast offered. Everything was delicious. Kathy and Brad made lovely recommendations for things to do and food to eat. We were considering a hike, and millie and Sierra offered to come along. Unfortunately, we didn't have time for a hike- but we will definitely go with them next time! While we ate breakfast in the lodge, we decided to check out the mountain with the binoculars. I think my husband spent most of his time peering at the mountain with the binoculars at the Lodge and cabin. But like I said, the small touches make this place special. It's definitely a wonderful place to unplug. The quiet, views, and accommodations are amazing. I'm so happy to add Mountian Home Lodge to our not so far- feels like a real vacation getaways.

We JUST got home from MHL…read more My husband and I stayed two wonderful nights there, perched up on the mountain, away from the hustle and bustle of the Oktoberfest celebration going on downtown, but still close enough to walk in or take a cab (we did both) when we wanted to get in on the fun. As parents of a 3 year old and a 1 year old, we have not felt this relaxed in a LONG time. Brad and Kathy have thought of literally everything. Need a wine opener? No problem. Champagne chiller? You got it. Trail maps, walking sticks, snow shoes, movies to watch, games to play.... no problem. It's all there for guests to borrow. We stayed in the Mountain Trout room, which was nicely appointed with a queen bed, super plush carpet, comfy robes, oversized towels, and really nice sheets. As we were lucky enough to squeeze in after someone else canceled, we didn't get our pick of a room, but we didn't mind at all. Included in our rate was a healthy and delicious breakfast made by the lodge chef, using many ingredients harvested from the property. We were also treated to complimentary appetizers and wine in the evenings. It was divine. Brad and Kathy take great pride in the lodge and love to share their knowledge of the local area, from where to have dinner or where to hike. Like another reviewer said; nothing feels fake. You feel like a welcomed guest in a very comfortable setting, and you leave feeling like you have made new friends. A nice touch was the balloons that were in our room upon our arrival. They knew we were there for an anniversary and this was a very sweet gesture. We also found a small bottle of port waiting for us in our room each evening. A typical day was waking up, enjoying the lovely breakfast and views, chatting with the hosts and other guests, hiking the trails immediately behind the lodge (We did the Peshastin Lookout; approximately 5 miles RT and spectacular) with the resident dog "Millie", coming back for a soak in the outdoor hot tub, then walking or driving into downtown for shopping, dinner (if not eating at the lodge), or Oktoberfest shenanigans, then back to the lodge for a game of cards in the media room. Repeat. We would come back to MHL a million times over. 5 stars all the way around. Thank you so very much!

I stayed at Pine River ranch for five days and I have pretty much nothing but good things to say…read moreabout it. I appreciate the self check in, the breakfast was absolutely delightful, and it's a gorgeous location. There was a slight issue with the water but once the owner was made aware he had it fixed in probably under an hour. All in all great service. The only subpar thing about my time there was it snowed really heavily in the area before and while we were there and the plowed pile of snow blocked the view on the road when you tried to pull out of the parking lot so we had a hard time seeing the cars coming 40+ miles toward us. Though, I don't think that was the fault of the ranch, just something to keep in mind in the winter months.

The place is huge, although outside of a few groups of children and guides on tours, there weren't a lot of people around. We found our way to the trail past the hatchery tanks and followed most of the winding paths. As far as wildlife today, we were only able to spot one lizard, some butterflies and birds. The trail itself was fairly uneventful. The mountain views were stunning, but there wasn't a lot more to see today. As we wandered back to the parking lot we took a peek at a few different sections of tanks, most of which were empty, but we were able to see fish in a couple. I was definitely very happy to see a sweet little pollinator garden near the entrance.

She tailored the ride to our level and we had a great time going fast through back trails on our well-maintained bikes. It was like a fun combo of road biking, gravel riding and mountain biking with the option of kicking on the throttle to move up hills. It was freeing and beautiful - we'd love to come again during another season! And bonus - she knows all the best photo sites for the tour!

The hotel has the Bavarian Hotel theme along with everything in Leavenworth. There are 3 floors, but no elevator. You get an old fashioned room key instead of a hotel card reader. You'll find a water carafe with cups in front of the stairs incase you need water in the middle of the night. The receptionist is also the same person serving you breakfast. She will send you a confirmation text before your arrival. I really enjoyed their traditional German breakfast, which includes cold cuts of meat, pastries, muffins, bread, and hard (or soft boiled) eggs. The room itself was very spacious. I liked the heated floors in the bathroom. The room includes one of those flat screens that turns into a painting / background when you turn it off. If you didn't know it was a TV, you'd think it's just framed artwork on the wall. Great location, great service, great food. One of my favorite places to stay.
