Property Description
Mountain Tower Cabin is a rare, income-producing retreat in Easton, Washington—an unforgettable 5-story craftsman tower set on a private 4+ acre hillside just blocks from Lake Kachess. Rising approximately 55 feet into the trees, the cabin captures sweeping views of the Cascades, Lake Kachess, wildlife, sunsets, and snow-covered peaks from nearly every level. Designed as both a secluded luxury escape and a destination-style short-term rental, the property offers multiple living and sleeping areas, a remodeled kitchen, updated baths, warm pine interiors, a fireplace, loft lounge, window-seat view deck, washer/dryer, and flexible space across five levels. Guests can unplug in total privacy, explore the property, walk 5 minutes to the beach, or access nearby hiking, boating, skiing, Roslyn, Cle Elum, Snoqualmie Pass, and year-round Cascade recreation. For STR investors, Mountain Tower Cabin offers what ordinary cabins cannot: instant brand recognition, a proven guest-favorite track record, and a truly differentiated stay that photographs, markets, and books like an experience—not just a house. The cabin has appeared on unique-stay and vacation-home platforms and generates $70k+ in annual revenue. Minor upgrades provide value-add opportunity and boost character appeal with unlimited possibilities on the sprawling 4.14 acres. A turnkey opportunity to own one of Washington’s most recognizable mountain rentals—private, architectural, scenic, and impossible to duplicate.
