The living room features three large sliding windows, opening onto the deck, and facing west with views of the mountains.

Mazama Haven is 500 yards from the access point to John’s Way winter-time ski trail, and the Methow Community Trail just over the road. It’s 0.6 miles to the Mazama Trail head, giving you plentiful options for cross-country skiing in the vicinity.
It is also one of the few area cabins with private community riverside access to one of the best river beaches and swimming holes on the river; the perfect spot to cool off on a hot summer day. There is a well-maintained woodland trail from in front of the home leading to the river.
