Alpine Lake Escape on Fish Lake
Alpine Lake Escape is the ultimate cabin retreat right on the shores of pristine Fish Lake. Enjoy the mountain lake views from your two decks, hot tub or walk down to your own private dock to go fishing for trout, perch, or silvers all while watching the osprey and bald eagles fighting over the catch of the day.
This 2300 square ft. cabin sleeps 4 and has three levels. On the main floor, the fully stocked kitchen, eating nook, and spacious living room - with a fireplace and flat screen TV - all have gorgeous lake views. There are also two bedrooms on the main floor, one full and one queen sized, and a full bathroom. The large comfortable open loft has a bathroom with a shower, a king-sized bed, and a sitting area. The newly remodeled lower level has a wet bar, French doors, large windows, and cozy seating with spectacular lake views. The lower level also has a full-sized bed, with a foosball table, comfortable couch and a flat screen TV for DVDs or streaming movies from your own personal devices.
Enjoy the kayaks or paddle boat at the house or rent a boat just a few minutes away at the Cove. You can also bring your own boat, with access to the community boat launch just one block down. Small boats suitable for shallow water can dock at your own private dock; fish all day and tie it up until you are ready to take a relaxing evening sunset cruise.
When the sun goes down, barbecue your catch of the day and then sit around the fire pit while roasting marshmallows or soak in the hot tub while gazing up at a sky full of stars. During the spring, summer and fall months you will enjoy any of the local activities: fishing, biking, boating, white water rafting, tubing, horseback riding, ziplining, hiking, golfing, mushrooming, rock climbing, swimming, or head to Leavenworth to go shopping or to float the lazy Icicle River. In the winter, enjoy the many snowshoeing and cross-country ski trails around the cabin, ice fishing, or head to Stevens Pass - just 30 minutes door-to-door - to downhill ski.
