UPDATE: We now offer an amazing outdoor shower overlooking our ponds as well as a private seating area with a chiminea and bbq!!!
Newly remodeled studio cabin that was originally a 1900's Lineman's Shed from the Willapa Harbor branch line of the Northern Pacific railroad company that ran from Chehalis, WA to South Bend, WA. That line has now been converted to a 56 mile long biking, hiking and equestrian trail that follows the beautiful Chehalis River. The working Willaway Forest and Farm is 87 acres, and with a direct private access road leading to the trail, the property would be a great stay over or starting point for a beautiful few days of bicycling or hiking this part of the Chehalis River Basin. The Lineman's Studio Cabin has a plush queen bed, 1/2 bath and full refrigerator and sink with basic utensils as well as an electric skillet , microwave and coffee maker. Electric heat is available as well as a beautiful woodstove. A large sliding window in the sitting area offers a beautiful view of the ponds where you may be lucky enough to see one of our frequent flying visitors such as Canadian geese or blue heron. Willaway is a largely wooded area with a few clearings where you will see blacktail deer, eagles and barn owls near daily. The Lineman's Studio sits next to a few small ponds that hold catfish and blue gill and some very soothing sounding bullfrogs. A network of trails throughout the property give you ample opportunities to see wildlife and forage off of the land. Yes please help yourself to some of those quarter sized blackberries, pick a few of the young Douglas fir tips in the spring to nibble on as you walk or try a few different salal berries. Don't forget to look down as you peruse the trails or play in the river as Adna area is famous for it's beautiful deep red to bright orange carnelian agates! For winter stays bring your fishing pole and try for the elusive winter steelhead or acrobatic silver salmon. And come warmer weather bring your favorite flotation device and spend the day soaking up the all important Vitamin D on the river! Located on property we are available when needed but allow you all the privacy you require.
We are located about 15 minutes from the town of Adna which is the closest small grocery and are about 20 minutes from I-5 and the city of Chehalis.
