Jaybird Retreat: 2 cozy cottages, riverfront & mountain views from hot tub

Jaybird Retreat is a pair of adorable cottages in a gorgeous riverfront setting, so peaceful you'll forget your just an hour from Seattle. The main Jaybird Cabin has everything your group will need; a full kitchen, dining area, and enough seating to all sit around the electric fireplace. Enjoy outdoor meals from the propane grill on the riverside deck- just around the corner from the sparkling hot tub where you can relax and gaze at the stunning view of the Cascade Mountains. Chickadee Cottage is a sweet studio snuggled on the side with a kitchenette and queen bed in a cozy living space. The spacious and private yard offers plenty of space for each cottage to feel very private while still being able to enjoy the company of the group when everyone's ready for the campfire or board games.

My husband and I had the perfect weekend getaway at Jaybird Cabins last weekend. It was exactly what we needed to rest, refresh and reconnect in the midst of our busy lives!

Loved our time at the cabin.
Clean, well set up, comfortable bed, plenty of seating in all the areas we wished to relax. Had fun just sitting and relaxing on the deck seeing the beautiful scenery.

Cute pet friendly cabin overlooking the river with view of the mountains
My husband and I and our pup spent a long weekend here. It was comfortable and such a welcomed getaway. The cabin was clean, easy to get to and had super detailed instructions. Will definitely stay here again!

Cozy cabin on the river
We always enjoy coming to the Jaybird retreat. On the river and with an excellent hot tub is a huge bonus, and although the cabin is modestly sized, it's always very clean and and is a nicely laid out space. A great location to get a head start on some of our favorite hikes.

Anniversary Getaway
Our stay was amazing! Quiet, relaxing, and beautiful views. The cabin was clean, cozy and well stocked. We felt right at home. Enjoyed time in the hot tub and in front of the fire place. The furnishings were in great condition and Christmas decorations were a very special touch!!

Cozy Jaybird
Great view, hot tub and facilities in general. Both cabins are great. The only negative that we could come up with is that the blinds need replacing, at least in the main cabin; some of them are bound up or broken, and you'd hate to miss any of that view!

Loved the Jaybird Retreat
Loved the multigenerational ability for some folks to stay up late and enjoy the hot tub, and others could go to bed, and enjoy an early morning coffee watching the eagles and ospreys across the river. Staff were quick to respond to questions.

Relaxing River View
I thoroughly enjoyed my time at JayBird Retreat. The proximity to the river, views of the cascade range from the balcony, perfect hot tub scenery, all made this so relaxing. This house might be small, but it’s cozy for a couple looking to escape the city. We had everything we needed.

A shining gold nugget in Gold Bar
The cute Chickadee cottage was a perfect, restful retreat for a couple after weeks of busyness. The big cabin had good Wifi connection for our Zoom meetings, yes even while on a break. The kitchen far exceeded our expectation and the place was spotlessly clean. We had a great time listening to the roaring river and gazing at the magnificent mountains. Highly recommended for folks who need a refreshing and recharging time.

Perfect Fall Getaway
This was a perfect cabin retreat. Beautiful view, fantastic weather, cozy inside. It was close to many hikes, restaurants, grocery but also felt like we were a million miles away. The only suggestion would be to have a heat lamp for the outside so we could've sat outside in the cool weather to enjoy the outdoors. The only complaint is the main bedroom- the bed was not comfortable. Overall, could not say any bad things about this trip. I loved how clean everything was upon the arrival and how many dishes there were for meal preparation. Thank you for having us!

Weekend getaway
Overall the view, the yard and hot tub made up for the little things. We spent most our weekend out on the deck and noticed it needs some TLC. Our 1 year old got splinters and scraped up and the board right when your about to enter the house is broken. We were really disappointed that the path down to the river is overgrown and you have to crawl over branches. There is ac in the main house in bedroom which was nice. But unfortunately there were spiders everywhere inside and dead bugs and cobwebs in both main house and other little cabin. The blinds were missing on some of the windows and one set of blinds fell on my head when I was trying to lower them. We felt like the cleaning was mediocre at best. The rug in the living room smelt of urine. This place wasn’t the best but wasn’t the worst just needs some extra love and a good deep clean.

river song
Cozy inside, and we could hear the sound of the Skykomish River all night and day long. It rained the whole time, and we were happy as clams, reading, singing, eating and walking in the woods. A real retreat for us. A very nourishing stay. stay after

Cute cabin with great view!
4 of us stayed at the cabin for a long weekend and it was a great spot! The main cabin is nice for hanging out and relaxing with a gorgeous view of the river. The kitchen is incredibly well supplied and made preparing meals easy. The beds are comfortable and everything was very clean and cozy.
