Near North Cascades National Park

Within a 60-minute drive from the North Cascades National Park Complex Headquarters and Visitor Information.

Drive down this shaded two-track road through the forest, cross the bridge over Maple Creek, and emerge into a meadow surrounded by woods. A hand-crafted tiny house is on your right, and a camping area is ahead of you, where you may choose the spot you like for your tent or rig. To get there: In Maple Falls turn Left on Silver Lake Road. In 2 miles, turn right onto Independence Lane, then shortly after, at the T, turn right again onto Full Moon Way. After the second house on the left, keep going a short distance, following the Maple Creek Meadow signs, turning Left onto the good two-track road to the Meadow. It's about 800 feet, (passing a small building where water is available at a hydrant). The road crosses a bridge over the Creek, and leads into the clearing. You will see the tiny house on your right, with its woodshed, and, looking to the left, an accessory building (The Tool Shed), where the composting toilet is located, along with a place to hang your sun shower (provided). If you are renting the Tiny House, you my park directly behind it. There are two picnic tables which may be used for cooking, eating, and washing dishes. The open meadow has room for two or three tent and camper sites. Just upstream from the bridge is a beaver pond, the beavers often busy though seldom seen. There is a trail to the pond, which is a good place to view bird life and hear frogs sing. The vegetation includes many large Sitka Spruce, Red Cedar, and Bigleaf Maple trees with their common understory plants, which now include trilliums, bleeding heart, and the less-loved stinging nettles. Two miles north from my place, on Silver Lake Road, is Silver Lake Park, a lovely large County park that offers swimming, fishing, trails, and small boat rentals. Two miles to the south is the community of Maple Falls, with its own trail network as well as shopping for groceries, hardware, treats for your pet, local art, and as of this writing, a food truck. Maple Falls is the second to the last town heading east on Mount Baker Highway, which ends at Artist Point in the heart of the mountains. Many hiking trails are to be found in the area along the highway. Maple Falls Visitor Center is a good place to get info on the endless attractions available.This is a tiny house that can accommodate 2 or 3 people.. Additional guests in your group may use the camping area nearby. There is room for 3-4 camping vehicles and/or tents in the dispersed camping area. An outbuilding contains a composting toilet and sun shower alcove for campers. There's also a hammock and a couple of picnic tables. This is a fine getaway for a couple with a child, with room for a larger group of family and friends. In the cabin: There's a 3-burner propane cooktop, a little bathroom with composting toilet and a shower stall in which to use a sun-shower. (the water can be heated if the sun isn't hot enough). There's a smalll drop-leaf table, closets and drawers to stow your things, a stained glass window and a tiny wood-burning stove for warmth. There's no electricity or running water, but several portable solar lights can be used when it's dark. Potable water is available in 5 gallon containers on site, and those can be refilled at the beginning of the driveway near the open gate. In addition to the sleeping loft, there is a storage loft. The same ladder can access either one. A front porch is nice to sit on in the afternoon sun. When I lived in the cabin, I did most of my dishwashing on the outdoor table nearby. 2 miles to the north is Silver Lake Park, a county park with a large lake where you can swim, hike, and rent small boats and paddle boards. 2 miles to the south is the village of Maple Falls, for groceries, local crafts, and information about hiking and exploring the Mt. Baker area. Additional people in your party can camp in the Meadow. There is room for about 4 camping vehicles (van or pickup size) and tents. The camping guests have their own facilities--a bathroom with composting toilet and sun shower place, in back of the building called The Tool Shed. The Tool Shed has a front porch too, a nice place to sit and watch the day go by.

The Tiny House Cabin

Perfect secluded spot! The tiny house was adorable and it has great access to Silver Lake. We will definitely be staying here again in the future!
