Moosehead Lodge
"Luxury log living. Riverfront serenity. A timeless retreat on the Wenatchee River."
Overview:
Welcome to Moose Head Lodge, a hand-hewn log cabin tucked into the heart of Ponderosa Estates along the Wenatchee River. This ultra-comfortable mountain escape offers low-bank riverfront access, high-end craftsmanship, and a rare sense of peaceful seclusion—just minutes from Lake Wenatchee, Plain, and Leavenworth.
Thoughtfully designed for relaxation and connection, this two-structure property includes a beautifully maintained main cabin and an adjacent guest cabin with its own private deck. Soak in the 6-person hot tub perched just above the river, gather around the custom firepit, or stroll down the stone staircase to the sandy beach for a riverside picnic.
Living Spaces:
Inside, rustic charm meets thoughtful comfort. Vaulted wood ceilings, quality finishes, and warm, lodge-style décor create an inviting space to unwind after a day outdoors. The layout supports togetherness while still offering quiet nooks to read, nap, or take in the view.
Guest Cabin:
Perfect for extended stays or extra privacy, the guest cabin (built in 2015) features a children's sleeping loft and its own deck facing the river. Ideal for families, friends, or a peaceful creative retreat.

Nothing short of spectacular.
by KailaOur stay at Moosehead Lodge was nothing short of spectacular. The views from the cabin were stunning. The access to the river was incredible. And the fire pit and hot tub were exactly what we needed. Our host was kind and communicative and allowed an early check in to get our vacation started early. It’s a short 25min drive to Leavenworth too—which we were happy to spend time in such a lovely town. We definitely would book again. Thanks for hosting us!
Everything was exactly as described
by KatieOur family thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Everything was exactly as described and we felt like we had our own private oasis even with homes/cabins on either side. Things to note: There is access directly into the river from the property. The river is pretty fast right now (early June) but there is a shallow area to wade, skip rocks, and splash around for kiddos. We tried to get all the way in on the hottest day of our stay, but the water was still too cold. The hot tub fixed that! There is a queen bed and bathroom on the main floor, with 2 bedrooms upstairs. One has a queen, and the other has a twin bunk and another twin bed too. Guest house has a queen bed and bathroom too. If you need complete dark to sleep, then the main floor queen is for you. The 2 upstairs bedrooms have semicircle windows without shades above the regular windows. The house was very clean and had lots of cookware. Just bring your own foil/saran wrap. Overall, 5/5 highly recommend. We will be back!
One of my favorite places I've stayed so far
by NicoelI had a little trouble figuring out how to get a hold of someone but that could also just be my inexperience with navigating the Airbnb app and Company serving the rental. overall our stay was amazing and it was a super special trip. the place was peaceful in a beautiful setting fully stocked with everything that we needed and more. it was incredibly clean and comfortable and homey with pretty much all the amenities that I was looking for. I think this is probably one of my favorite places I've stayed so far on a mini trip in our beautiful state of Washington and I hope to come back again in the future
