Amazing. My dog loved being able to chase her ball all over off-leash.
The river is beautiful and so is all of the property.
Would be great if you could get the state to move the highway so it doesn't disturb the peacefulness of the cabin.
Enjoyed the hottub and the riverside seating areas.

Wonderful, cozy cabin...everything you could want/need for a very fun time. Beds comfy, plenty of seating. Train noise could keep little ones up.

Such a wonderful house and property! We made use of all of it! Kids loved the river. Dogs loved their ability to roam on the large lot. There was even a fully fenced dog run if your pooch can't be trusted on voice commands. Adults loved relaxing at the gazebo and listening to the river roll by.
It was warm during our stay so we slept with the windows open. The bugs weren't an issue because of the screens but definitely pack earplugs for the highway and train noise.
All in all it was a terrific stay!!

In short, overall it was a very nice stay - beds were comfy, hot water was ample, spacious living room, nice hot tub, was able to stream live soccer matches, access to the river was great, and it was good for cooking and eating with a group. Cons were the huge glob of hair clogging the downstairs shower we had to extract with a bbq skewer, the incessantly beeping fire alarm we had to buy a 9V battery for (none in utility closet and we had to swap it out from the very very high ceiling, which was challenging without a ladder), and the lack of salt in the kitchen. Besides those things not being addressed, we had a pleasant time. Like all the other reviewers, bring ear plugs if you're sensitive, the train can get loud in the upstairs bedroom.

Well appointed cabin on the Skykomish river, with comfortable beds and large back yard abutting the river. The view from the large picture window at the back of the house is astonishingly beautiful! The house itself is clean, comfortable and cozy, although if you're planning on using the wood stove, bring a couple of bundles of firewood with you, as the property supplies only a small amount. The property sits just off the highway and across from train tracks, so there is traffic noise and occasional train rumblings. If you're looking for a quiet get away, this house may not suit your expectations, but the sound of the rushing river does a fairly decent job of masking some of the highway noise. We usually travel with earplugs on hand, so we were able to sleep without much disruption.

Wonderful property, easy access to skiing, roomy accommodations and picturesque backdrop on the river. I saw several comments on the train and noise- barely noticeable if your family talks or like any volume level of music. My biggest “complaint” is that there wasn’t a step-by-step check-out guide with all expectations of guests. There was quite a bit of snow so finding the trash wasn’t easily accessible but totally doable. We saw a few inches of snow and enjoyed the view of the river and mountain from the hot tub. Would love to stay again.

Great stay with friends who wanted to go snowboarding on Stevens pass! We had no signal and had a difficult time contacting host during our stay via text, but check in and check out procedures were very easy and well laid out for us to follow. Nice views of river as well during the daytime

The home is well maintained, and the property is beautiful.
The gazeebo are outside is maintained nicely and there is plenty space in the yard to have a park like feeling.
Although the property is on the river, you have to climb down a rocky hillside to access the water. .. and the rocks move, somewhat dangerous..
The house was well equipped with supplies, and there is a mini mart/gas station within a few miles away.
The full wall of windows in the living room/ den lets in lots of light, but the windows really need to be cleaned to better enjoy the nature view...
Also note, the train across the street runs many times during the night and is extremely loud. Earplugs would be helpful..
Overall it was a beautiful place.. plenty of furniture both inside and out..

This place has all the amenities plus some! We loved the outdoor space! It was a really great place to stay! However, as others have mentioned the house itself is right off of hwy 2 and gets very loud. It should be mentioned because even at night time the traffic stays loud and there’s a train that comes by often. Since the cabin doesn’t have AC we left windows open making it pretty hard to sleep with the noise, the second night we kept the windows closed and that helped some. Earplugs aren’t normally something I use but there was some available which was nice and is only necessary at bed time. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Our family had a wonderful time here. We got to be outside around the fire and listen to the river the first night and then were blessed with a full day of snowing and got to enjoy the hot tub in the snow. Loved building a fire in the wood burning stove in the mornings. As others have said the traffic and train can be heard, we didn't mind it at all because we knew to expect it. We didn't need earplugs or anything like that. If you have more sound sensitive people in your group you would need to bring a white noise machine (they actual have ear plugs available if you need them).

It was clean and full of fun stuff to do. Plenty of kitchen stuff to cook a full meal. The hot tub view is amazing. Even the weather decided to cooperate for most of our stay. It was lovely.

Everything was as advertised. We have rented several houses before and this was the cleanest, maybe because of extra cleaning due to COVID-19. As others have mentioned, there is now a gazebo near the river that is not mentioned in the listing. It has lights and a power outlet, although it is too far from the house for the WiFi if you want to use a laptop. We had a picnic there with day guests. A nearby fire pit was well stocked with wood. We enjoyed the trains. I was actually wishing they would come more often. There was heavy traffic on the highway when we arrived on a Sunday evening and during the weekday afternoons. The high speed WiFi worked throughout the house. AT&T did not have a strong enough signal for our phones, but there is a land line phone available. Our dog enjoyed the dog run. The only negative we found was the open design along with wood floors caused every sound to be heard throughout most of the house. The rental management company was great. They responded very quickly to questions sent by e-mail. Overall this has been our best vacation rental experience.

This was not my favorite place to stay. Fairly clean, had all the basics... but I was surprised by the property. It just looked very different from the pictures and I wish the deck would’ve actually accommodated us all for a dinner outside without trekking down the hill to the gazebo... which is not in the pictures (super cool lit with Edison lights)

Our family stayed for 2 nights. Wonderful property with a dog- lots of space. Our favorite spot was the gazebo by the water- it has lights and a fan to keep the bugs away. The train was not a bother to us at all and we slept with the Windows open. Would go there again.

We had a wonderful stay at Galena's Getaway!
The home was very comfortable with lovely accommodations and amenities. The property was very private and peaceful and was a beautiful spot in the mountains close to the river where there is a great place to sit and take in all of the beauty.
We look forward to another "getaway" visit in the future.

We stayed here for two nights. Here are the positives and negatives:
Positives: house was clean, kitchen semi-well stocked, towels were nice.
Negatives:
1--This house is literally a few car lengths from route 2, a very busy and loud highway.
2--The owners must have forgot to mention this, but this house is situated a very short distance from a train track. Trains come through at all hours of the day and night. It is so loud that when I first heard it I thought a jet airplane was coming through the window. It is so close it literally shakes the bed in the upstairs loft. You will not sleep in this house, unless you are a very deep sleeper, and don't mind loud cars, trucks and trains when trying to sleep.
It would have been nice to know that what we thought was going to be a peaceful stay in nature, by a quiet river, was actually going to be a little house on the highway, complete with extremely loud trains at all hours of the day and night.
My wife and I had a good chuckle out of this, though: when we got there we read in the "welcome book" that there was a train track nearby and that we should "try to hear the train at least once" and it explained that there was "rich history" of trains in that area. We heard the train 4 times before we went to bed that night, each time it shocked us! Then it woke us up at 12:45 AM, and then when it woke us at 3:45 AM we both looked at each other and said, "rich history!" So it was good for a laugh! Even at 3:45 AM.
Summary: you will not want to stay here unless you are prepared for a very loud experience. I wish someone would have warned us. Good news, since we hardly slept for the 2 nights we were there thanks to the "rich history", tonight we will no doubt sleep for 12 hours straight in our own bed at home!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will come back again. The setting on the river is great. Soaking in the hot tub after a day of skiing was need. Thanks for letting us stay.
