Welch Cabin on the KALAMA ~ A License to Chill~

This one-of-a kind Welch Cabin is 90 feet above the fabled 'Holy Waters' of the unique Kalama River. Nineteen acres of preserved forest includes easy access to the gin-clear river. For over 20 years Welch Cabin was 'off the grid'. In 2022 we completed renovations to retain the wilderness aspects but add important modern conveniences; processed water from our creek, 'his' and 'her' Bio-Toilets along with hot showers, WI-FI and a modern kitchen.Welch Cabin is 10 miles from the village of Kalama WA on the paved, curvy Kalama River road. Our 19 private acres are in a full conservation easement and while no neighbors are within sight, other homes are less than a mile away. The forest is made of huge trees: Douglas fir, western red cedar, giant sequoia and hemlock, plus a variety of hardwoods and wild flowers. If you slow down you will hear nature: song birds and eagles, water gurgles through the rocky rapids, a cougar scream or a bolt of lightning arcing into the nearby mountain tops. And best of all, a gentle mountain breeze in fir trees soaring 50 feet directly above you.
