The combination of the Ovenells' hospitality, local knowledge and recommendations along with a spotlessly clean cabin (with one of the best mattresses I've slept on outside my home) made for an exceptional 4 days of hiking in the nearby Cascades. If you're interested enough to be reading this review, go ahead and make a reservation! If you don't want to cook your meals, there is great pizza in town, the Red Apple grocery has very good sandwiches to go, and there's an oustanding brewpub 10 minutes up the road.

We stayed in the Fisherman & Woodsman cabins while touring the North Cascades National Park. These small cabins were clean, cozy and well-equipped with microwave, refrig, 2-burner stove, a/c and heater.

The cabins are in a very small town with only a burger place and a pizza place for restaurants. You may want to stock up on food on your way to the cabins because it's a 15-20 minute drive into town. Be sure to bring a couple of jugs of water. During our stay the tap water had a strong smell and a metallic taste. It was okay for cleaning, but I didn't want to drink it or make coffee with it.

Otherwise, it's a beautiful location, very peaceful and a good night's sleep.

We rented the Wrangler cabin at Ovenell's. The location of the cabins is very nice with a nice view and a nice front porch on which to sit and enjoy it. The cabin itself is very clean. The linens in the bedroom and bath are surprisingly nice given the condition of the stove and kitchen furnishings. It was not an inexpensive place to stay, but the only one in the area. If this were my only choice, I'd stay again, but I think I'd try to get on the other side of Cascades National Park instead.

My family just returned from Ovenell's. The cabins were great and clean. The scenery was beautiful, and my kids even fed the livestock. But checking in was a nightmare (they messed up my debit card charge and took an hour to fix it-but they didn't fix it-they ended up double-charging me. I notified the owner Monday, when I found out. She said there was only one person that could fix it that wouldn't be in that day. I have called multiple times since then and it seems like they are completely ignoring this mistake and so far still have $319 of mine. The mistake I don't even mind so much, but the owners apathetic attitude toward it, I do. Off to get back on the phone with them to get my money.
Oh, and maybe I'm just used to hotels, but I hadn't known you were expected to pay at the beginning of your stay.
