Wonderful outdoor spaces--book it!
We loved the Knotty Lodge. Our family (four of us--with an active 15 year old son and introverted 19 year old daughter) were there for almost a week at the end of July. We were looking for a place with nice outdoor space and it was perfect. Sure the environment itself is beautiful but it is the way the owners created the outdoor spaces which made it so lovely. As we walked through the quiet neighborhood, we took notice of other outdoor spaces and never saw one so cared for and thoughtfully designed. There are multiple sitting areas--picnic table, fire pit, patio table & chaise lounger.
We also liked that there are some walking trails in the neighborhood next to the creek/river. We spent one day just enjoying that area--playing in the water, foraging thimble berries, and just enjoying the scenery. Another day when it was drizzling, my husband and I just enjoyed walking by the river when the kids wanted to stay in.
The house itself was beautiful and thoughtfully furnished--throw blankets, plenty of towels & hooks to hang them, travel mugs for coffee on the drive to Mt Baker and even a daypack available for use. It was so comfortable in every way allowing us to really relax.
A few FYIs: you likely need a book light for non-electronic reading as the house has only one reading lamp (loft), the bar is the only indoor dining space, even with the very well equipped kitchen--for specific items you might verify or bring it and you can also see Knotty Lodge at "HeirBee&Bee."
