The Space:

Skywood – Mid-Century Modern Retreat with Sauna | Fireplace | Forest Views



Tucked into the peaceful Snowline Community in Glacier, Washington, Skywood is a thoughtfully restored mid-century modern retreat designed for quiet mountain escapes. With warm textures, vintage character, and views of the surrounding forest canopy, this two-bedroom cabin offers a cozy yet refined basecamp for exploring the Mt. Baker area.



Backing onto a peaceful ravine and framed by towering evergreens, the home feels immersed in nature. On clear days you’ll even catch glimpses of Church Mountain rising above the trees—a beautiful reminder that the mountains are never far away.



Inside, Skywood blends retro charm with modern comfort. The space is styled with rich browns, deep blues, and natural wood tones, accented by glossy green cabinetry and custom lighting that gives the cabin its distinctive personality. The living room centers around a wood-burning fireplace, creating the perfect place to gather after a day of skiing, hiking, or exploring the North Cascades.



For an extra layer of relaxation, the home features a built-in indoor sauna—ideal for warming up after a winter day on the slopes or unwinding after a summer hike.



Sleeping Arrangements:



The cabin comfortably sleeps up to four guests across two bedrooms:



• Primary Bedroom: King bed

• Second Bedroom: Queen bed

• Two full bathrooms for comfort and convenience



Whether you're enjoying morning coffee overlooking the trees, cozying up by the fire in the evening, or spending time in the sauna after an adventure, Skywood is designed to feel both grounding and memorable.

Location

Skywood is located in the Snowline Community, just up the road from the restaurants and shops of Glacier, WA and about 35 minutes to Mt. Baker Ski Area. From skiing and snowshoeing in winter to hiking, mountain biking, and river adventures in summer, the surrounding wilderness offers year-round mountain experiences.



After a full day exploring, returning to the quiet of Skywood—surrounded by trees, with the fire going and the sauna warming—is part of what makes a stay here so special.
