The owner's communication of the booking process, property access, and how to get the most out of your experience was fantastic. It made the whole experience easy and incredibly simple. The property itself is absolutely gorgeous and a fantastic space for groups to get together and includes enough space for people to break off and relax on their own. Everything you could possibly need to have a fantastic day is in one place.

This property is Heavenly! The Lodge itself is lovely. It is rustic in appearance, but has all the comfortable amenities.
It offers plenty of rooms and bathrooms for a large group. The kitchen is fabulous and extremely well-equipped. The drawers are helpfully labeled. Instructions were provided for any of the less common features, such as the home's indoor/outdoor stereo system.
Our group enjoyed the pool (a little chilly for the adults, but the kids didn't seem to mind)! All of us loved the hot tub. We enjoyed hanging out and eating meals on the deck.
The surrounding property is so beautiful!. We observed a variety of wildlife during our stay! We saw deer each day out by the pond. The kids loved seeing the pollywogs in the pond! Amazingly, none of them ^accidentally" slipped into it! Haha We saw many kinds of birds, including a turkey! Little snakes & lizards, chipmunks, and some "evidence" of a bear!!! We all took walks along the river.
This property feels like a very private retreat. The surroundings are beautiful and peaceful, and the weather during our stay was great.
Last, but definitely not least, our Host Shannon was awesome. She quickly answered any of my questions from the time I first rented the property til up to and during our stay.
My family would happily choose to stay here again! I highly recommend.

We loved our stay. Everyone had plenty of room but also lots of places to come together. The kitchen is better stocked than any rental I've ever seen. The setting is beautiful and secluded. We had planned to go into Leavenworth for more meals but ended up staying at home because it was the best venue!

This is such a great spot for a family escape! Our kids had such a great time on the property between the pool, the river and the kids club that they never wanted to leave! The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is very well supplied. I highly recommend this place!

We really enjoyed a peaceful few days at the Lodge. The views and location cannot be beat! The home was clean, comfortable and very accommodating. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with everything we could possibly need. The large dining table worked well for eating together & family games, too. It was perfect for our large family of 12. Overall, great home where we made a lot of memories! Highly recommend.

Perfect house for our family of 12. Ages 7 months to 60. Kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals. Love the pool and hot tub. Kids loved the game room and kids room. If you are going anytime soon pack insect repellent. The mosquitoes were relentless. We tried to play basketball or take kids to sandbox area but mosquitoes were significant. They did spray around the house the day we arrived and that made it so we could use pool and hot tub. Owner was super communicative . House was everything as listed. Super clean too. Thanks so much for allowing us stay in your beautiful home!

This lodge has *all* the little details that make an amazing place for a group: beautiful private property; three (yes, you heard right: three!!) fridges; two dish-washers!!; every kitchen tool you can imagine; every board game and puzzle you could desire; great sound-system; massive TV room with great movies; even laundry! The hosts are fabulous and every bedroom is great. There is a pretty impressive little children’s house built on the property too, so plenty to keep littles happy.

What a beautiful, well stocked home! Everything we could have possibly needed was there and there was so much space that everyone could be together, or alone. Such a fun weekend getaway - we didn’t want to leave!

My father in law celebrated his 70th birthday at the HCW lodge. This rental was well equipped with everything we needed to cook, play and relax. The grounds were covered in snow and the view from the main room out to the river was incredible. We spent each morning in the hot tub watching the snow fall!

We were visiting the Heaven Can Wait with a group of friends and it was absolutely amazing experience!
The lodge is beautiful with all amenities you just need. Very comfortable, clean and has lot of space! Sauna and hot tubs are just a great addition to a tennis court and chess play area :-). The nature around is breathtaking! Shannon was very helpful in answering on our requests and it was pretty easy to get around.
Looking for a next stay at HCW :-)

Excellent stay at an excellent home
Everything we experienced in and around HCW Lodge was of the highest quality. Comfortable and well-appointed without feeling stuffy or uptight. Very clean and lots of room for 14 of us to be together or spread out. The location was beautiful--we loved watching the river rolling by. And near good hiking and mountain biking. Highly recommend

HCW is just as great as last time we stayed there a few years ago. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves from 85 year old matriarch to the newest at 6 months. What a special place!

The property had tons of amenities. The kitchen was well stocked and perfect for multiple families. There were lots of activities like tennis, trails, a playhouse, a pool table, and of course swimming to keep the kids entertained. We had a great time!

Lodge was beautiful and so well stocked. The grounds had so many fun things to discover, and the pool was a hit even this early in the season. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect trip away.

Heaven *can* really wait!
Amazing property, maintained *impeccably* with gorgeous details. Our favorite part was the large kitchen—three fridges (!), two sinks, two dishwashers, two coffee-makers, two long dining tables, and practically endless kitchen utensils/cups/plates//gadgets. A better kitchen for a group of 12 has never been found! Every bedroom was beautiful with comfy beds & bedding. The living room with fireplace has a breathtaking view of the river. Plus, the property itself is on 12 private acres right next to the river and 10 minutes away from cross-country skiing. The TV room was packed with movies to watch; there were extra towels for the spacious hot tub; and the kids loved the foosball table, kids’ play-room, and mini cabin. Extremely gracious owners. Can’t think of a better place for a group to create memories. We hope to come back soon.

Perfect Winter Hideaway
We had 10 total adult children and spouses visiting the Seattle area for the holidays. We wanted to ski and this was the perfect winter hideaway near Stevens Pass ski resort, with all the amenities to relax and recuperate and play as a family between days on the slopes. Thank you Shannon for sharing this wonderful home.

Heaven Can Wait Lodge was situated in a very charming & serene location. Waking up to the view of the river and frosted trees was peaceful and enchanting. The lodge has everything we needed for entertaining. We will definitely come back again, likely during the summer to enjoy all the lodge has to offer.

We had a large family group gathering and stayed at the Heaven Can Wait Lodge. It was so much fun! Our group varied in age from young children, teens, parents, and grandparents. There was plenty to do for everyone! The property owner was very communicative and answered any questions we had throughout the process in a very timely manner. The kitchen was awesome with 3 refrigerator/freezers, 2 dishwashers, and 2 sinks amongst plenty of dishes, cooking accessories, and room to sit! The deck and backyard is plenty big enough to accommodate large groups. The river is fairly easy to access directly from the backyard. We loved our visit and would definitely love to go back!
