About this property
AIA-Honored Mountain Retreat · Modern 3BR Design Home with Big Views
Seasonal: Roads and driveway are plowed in winter, but all-wheel drive is strongly advised for the driveway. After Thanksgiving, the home is decorated for the winter holidays with a lighted tree, holiday fireplace décor, and holiday lights. Upholstered patio furniture is stored for the season, but durable seating and tables remain.
Welcome to 320 Palouse, a modern mountain lodge set high above Cle Elum at 3,000 feet—where the air is clear, the nights are cool, and the design blends stone, cedar, and glass into a single peaceful retreat.
Designed by Seattle architect Lane Williams, this distinctive three-building home connects living, sleeping, and recreation wings through enclosed breezeways. Granite-clad walls and floor-to-ceiling windows frame evergreens and distant views of the Stuart Range, creating a sense of calm and connection with nature.
Inside, a vaulted great room anchors the home with comfortable seating, a gas fireplace, and a chef’s kitchen equipped for family meals or entertaining friends. Step through the breezeway to the bunk-room wing, where you’ll also find the game room with ping-pong, air hockey, Pop-A-Shot, a dartboard, and a Nintendo Switch with family-friendly games—a space for friendly competition after a day of hiking or skiing.
The Private Suite offers a king bed, sitting area, and ensuite bath with a walk-in shower, jetted tub, dual towel warmers, and a washlet-style bidet for spa-like comfort. The Bunk Room features two queen-over-queen bunks plus two Twin XL beds that can combine into a king—perfect for kids or flexible groups. A spacious bath includes dual towel warmers and another washlet-style bidet. A Den / Flex Room doubles as a second lounge with its own gas fireplace, built-in window-seat daybed, two roll-out twin beds, and a dedicated workspace.
Two full bathrooms serve the home, both with modern fixtures, towel warmers, and washlet seats. A high-capacity washer and dryer support longer stays.
Comfort features • AC, central heating, two gas fireplaces • Fast Wi-Fi and three large smart TVs with Netflix, Disney+, NFL+, and Spotify • Fully equipped kitchen with Dacor range and quality cookware • Private well with filtered water • Ample parking and level driveway access
Outside, stone terraces and native landscaping frame the surrounding ridge. Enjoy morning coffee in the breezeways, sunsets over the pines, or the hush of a winter snowfall—the lodge is designed to make every season feel special.
Location 320 Palouse is minutes from Roslyn’s restaurants and Cle Elum’s shops, 15 minutes from Suncadia Resort, and about 90 minutes from Seattle. Nearby trailheads for the Teanaway and Iron Horse Trail offer hiking, biking, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing.
Whether you’re gathering family, reconnecting with friends, or seeking quiet time in the mountains, this lodge balances architectural style with relaxed Northwest comfort.
