Property Description
44.3 private acres. A handcrafted log cabin. Your own four-season basecamp in the mountains. Twisted Pines Retreat combines privacy, recreation, and established off-grid living within the gated Sun East community. Near over 300,000 acres surrounding the Wenatchee National Forest, this is a place to ride, hunt, hike, snowmobile, explore, or simply unplug. Built from scratch in 2002, the cabin features Canadian spruce log walls, Arkansas yellow pine flooring, tongue-and-groove knotty pine ceilings, and handcrafted log furnishings that give it authentic mountain character. The off-grid infrastructure is already in place with solar power, backup generators, propane appliances, and a water catchment and year-round storage system. A protected basement keeps the mechanical systems accessible and sheltered. Bring family, friends, and the toys. A detached sleeping cabin adds guest accommodations, while the garage provides storage for ATVs, snowmobiles, motorcycles, tools, and outdoor gear. Outside, the naturally wooded acreage delivers privacy, territorial views, wildlife, and established spaces to gather and relax without extensive landscape maintenance. More than a cabin, this is a recreational headquarters for weekends, extended stays, hunting season, winter adventures, and time away from the noise. If you've been waiting for a mountain property where the infrastructure is established and adventure is outside your door, Twisted Pines Retreat is ready.
