Roam+Board :: Rolling Huts

[trip style = weekend getaway + camping & glamping]

{Editor’s Note: As we mentioned on Monday, in addition to Travel Beauty, Roam+Board is now publishing every other Wednesday! Your mid-week just got a little more dreamy, we *hope.* Re: this property, I’ve never stayed here, but I hope to in the next year.}

What
If quiet was a sound, you’d find it at Rolling Huts. Tucked into the Methow Valley between the North Cascades mountains, a herd of six warming huts stake a claim on the farmland below. Boxy bungalows with basic kitchenettes, wood-burning fireplaces and platform beds host your trip style = glamping + weekend getaway.

Replace your morning commute with a 6km cross-country ski to the nearest espresso bar and TV watching with stargazing. This is a place to mentally unplug and surround yourself with nature.

I first came across Rolling Huts in Sunset Magazine {<—Love} in an article about “The West’s best romantic getaways“, and though getting far, far away from it all at a property bathed in minimalism won’t be everyone’s version of a sultry weekend, you’d have no choice but to cozy-up in your cabin with hot cocoa!

Where
Methow Valley, Washington; six hours from Vancouver, four hours from Seattle. During winter the WA-20 Washington Pass connector is closed, so you take a slight roundabout route to arrive. In the summer take 2.5 hours off the above-mentioned travel times.

When
Year-round. Cross-country ski in winter, explore nearby towns in shoulder season, and hike and bike in summer.

Who/Why
Modern, sparse architecture is your thing, or want to clear your head. You like to get away from it all, and don’t mind a communal potty/shower barn that’s a few steps from your pad.

Cost
Cottages from $125. During holidays add a $10/night. Huts comfortably sleep two, and can be configured to sleep four. $25 pet fee per stay. Includes wifi.
