Grace E.’s Mini Forest Cabins

12 sites · Lodging12 acres · Arlington, WA
This property is supposedly one of the first homesteads in Jordan Road. This information is based on stories from some old timers my husband had spoken to in the past when he bought this property in 2002. The owner back in the old days sold off parcels and parcels of lands back then. The property is all fenced in, a place where your fur buddy can run free so you don't have to worry of the baby getting lost! Hopefully you'll get a visit from a deer and hear the hooting of the owl. :) You are welcome to check out our goats too if you want (they're in their enclosed space). The surroundings are peaceful and private, you will enjoy exploring the trails all around the 9 acres out of 12 we are sharing. Stroll down the hill to listen to the sounds of the creek and fish ladder. Our campground cabins are about 4.9 miles from the 'Granite Falls Fish Ladder'. Visit this beauty at Mountain Loop Highway if you fancy a little hike. Drive around 7 miles to the 'Lime Kiln Trailhead. The trail is full of amazing views and history. Our place is only about 45 minutes from Seattle. Why not pack your tent and sleeping bags then drive here after work, then leave in the morning. Leave your worries behind.. enjoy nature.

Family-friendly cabins near Bellevue guide

Overview

Across Lake Washington from Seattle, Bellevue makes a good base if you want to be near Seattle but also want to be able to head east into more natural areas without having to fight traffic. There’s not much in town in terms of outdoor adventure, beyond boating on Lake Washington to the west of town and Lake Sammamish to the east. That said, you won’t have to go far to find some excellent hiking opportunities, particularly if you head southeast to Cougar Mountain Regional Wildland Park, Squak Mountain State Park Natural Area, and the Tiger Mountain State Forest.

Where to go

Around Lake Washington

There are plenty of spots worth checking out in the Lake Washington area, both in Bellevue and in nearby cities. Lakefront parks worth checking out include Seattle's massive Seward Park and the similarly sized Saint Edward State Park on the northeastern shores of the lake. If you want to fish, head north to Kirkland, where there are lots of public piers (just make sure to get a license first).

Mount Rainier National Park

Featuring miles of hiking trails, fantastic rock climbing, and a bounty of colorful springtime wildflowers, Mount Rainier National Park is ideal for both day trips and overnight stays. There are four campgrounds in the park, and while they're only open seasonally, there are a few private spots in the area where you can camp year-round.

Leavenworth

East of Bellevue in the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest sits one of Washington's quirkiest destinations: Leavenworth. Modeled after a Bavarian town, complete with hand-painted signs, timber-beam facades, and a beer garden, this popular tourist destination draws in wintertime crowds with its annual Christmas market and light display. Year-round camping is available in the nearby Lake Wenatchee State Park.

When to go

There's plenty to do in Bellevue throughout the year, from a summertime art fair to the annual Bellevue Jazz & Blues Music Series, held every October. The weather here is temperate, and while winters are mild, the region gets a ton of rain from late autumn well into spring. If outdoor activities are on your radar, it's wise to come in the summertime, when highs are usually in the mid- to upper-70s and there's generally not too much rainfall.
