Cascade Mountain Inn

W e l c o m e   t o   t h e   N o r t h   C a s c a d e s !



     Cascade Mountain Inn is located in Birdsview, a small farming community in the beautiful Upper Skagit Valley. Nestled in the foothills of the Cascade mountains, it is a wonderful place to visit all year long.

     Come and enjoy the casual elegance of our Country Inn. Our barn-style Inn opened its doors in 1984 as a bed and breakfast having been specifically designed for that purpose. Relax in front of one of our fireplaces in the living room or in the solarium, breathe the fresh mountain air in the orchard, spoil yourself with a soak in the hot tub, or just relax in the sun room and enjoy the views of the beautiful North Cascades.

     We offer five individually-decorated guest rooms with private bathrooms, and a secluded one bedroom suite with a kitchenette. A home-cooked breakfast is served in the light and airy atmosphere of the multi-windowed sun room, with an extraordinary mountain view.

     Add to your enjoyment a relaxing massage from one of our licensed massage therapists. Techniques include Swedish, Trigger Point or Deep-Tissue massages.  Advance reservations are required.

     The Inn is located just 11.8 miles from the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest with hundreds of hiking trails, ranging from the 1/2 mile Shadow of the Sentinels trail to all day hikes along Baker Lake or to Rainbow Falls.

     Rasar State Park is a short 2 miles away and has some good short trails along the Skagit River. It's a nice bicycle ride to the park from the Inn.

     The turn off to Sauk Mountain Trail is 12 miles East on Hwy. 20 and the trailhead is 7 miles off of the Hwy. The hike up is about 2 miles and takes some endurance, but offers a 360 degree vista of the Cascade mountain range that stretches all the way to Mt. Rainier.

     The North Cascades National Parks Visitor Center in Newhalem is located 35 miles east of the Inn on Hwy. 20. The center features interpretive exhibits, a gift shop and a slide program about the North Cascades and several walks on easy-going trails. A must while in Newhalem is the Trail of the Cedars, a short walk through old growth cedar trees.

     Some highlights of the city of Concrete, 6 miles East of the Inn on Hwy. 20: the Hub Tavern with its 100 foot long back bar that's carved out of one piece of wood, the Concrete Department Store right out of the 19th century, take a picture in front of the standing bear and visit the Indian museum at the end of the Thompson bridge.

     Bring your bicycle, fishing pole, snowshoes, cross country skis, hiking boots and most important your camera and binoculars!  For those of you traveling with horses and horse trailers, we offer facilities to park and store trailers and accommodations for your healthy horses for an additional fee.

 

    

 We are looking forward to welcoming you at the Inn. In the meantime, enjoy a wander through our website... it's easy to navigate, and you can click on any photo for a larger view. Thanks for stopping by! ~
