Stella is a sweetheart, (unless you are a racoon), she doesn’t start fights, but if your dog is prone to aggressive behavior it is best to reach out before booking. Stella is safe with children and respectful, but she has a job to do on the farm and her access is not limited.

Weekend Trip to Wild Hearts on Whidbey

We enjoyed our stay at the Glasshouse! The concept is really cool and we enjoyed the large space. Rochelle was responsive and quickly was able to find someone to fix the woodstove when we were having problems. If you are not confident in starting a fire I would definitely bring a fire starter. I am confident in my fire making skills, but we were not able to get a fire going, which made for a chilly stay. It feels relevant to note that the weather forecast was incredibly rainy so while the wood was dry, the humidity definitely had an effect (nobody's fault). Luckily there is a baseboard heater in the bedroom space as well as electric blankets so we were plenty warm at night! The dishwashing/handwashing station wasn't super obvious to us, and we hope in the future there will be a sink space to do these things.

Staying here was lovely. Very relaxing and beautiful. There is no running water, indoor toilet or shower, but there's a portapotty. The hosts were very kind. It's close to Langley which is cute and has good food! Definitely will be back.

Absolutely amazing spot! Quiet, beautiful, and a setup with every detail truly thought through. It also felt the perfect balance of glamping; you’re keenly aware of being in the middle of a forest but with the creature comforts of home.

It’s a very unique place! You can’t tell in the pictures but the building is right next to a rental. He was very friendly but it lacked privacy. Overall nice place, easy to find.

Staying here felt like stepping into a dream. The property is absolutely stunning, every corner seems to have its own quiet magic. It’s one of those places that makes you slow down, breathe deeper, and just take it all in. What makes this spot so special is how unique the experience is. It’s not just a place to stay; it feels like its own little world, tucked away from everything. If you’re looking for beauty, peace, and a truly memorable escape, this is it.

Wonderful! The site was beautiful. The bed was super-comfortable. The hosts thought of everything in terms of supplies provided. (including smores!) Jenn was helpful and highly responsive to texts. I loved being out there in the woods. I had planned to use this as a base from which to take a couple of day trips, but it was so relaxing and pretty that I ended up just staying there.

The best glamping pods near Kirkland guide

Where to go

Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest

Soar above sea-level at Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. Just over an hour north of Kirkland at the edge of Mount Rainier National Park, Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest boasts glacial landscapes, old growth forests, and mountainside meadows. Year-round activities await as the national forest offers onsite campgrounds, trailheads, sno-parks, and water sites. For those hoping to summit Mt. Baker, glacial-climbing gear is a must. Due to its high elevation, the park sees snow well into the year, so prepare for cold weather until late June and even July.

Belfair State Park

Wander west to the pebble beaches of Belfair State Park. About two hours from Kirkland in the Hood Canal, Belfair features wetlands and beaches. Known for its gentle winds, this park is ideal for wind-surfing, kite-flying, and kayaking. With three camping loops, waterfront sites, full hookups, and first-come, first-served primitive camping, this state park has campsites for everyone. There are also three restroom locations with showers.

Bridle Trails State Park

Built into the landscape of Kirkland itself, Bridle Trails State Park brings equestrians, hikers, and horses together. Known as “the wilderness in the city” and as one of the top equestrian parks west of the Mississippi, Bridle Trails is home to four sporting arenas and 28 miles of trails. Campers can enjoy the day-use picnic area featuring BBQs, water, and restrooms, though it is encouraged to get there early—especially on weekends. Despite the lack of onsite camping, there are nearby campsites in Kirkland, Redmond, and Bellevue.
