The Master Bedroom and Kitchen:
The master bedroom includes a king-size Englander mattress with 400-plus thread-count sheets. The luxurious bed and tranquil silence ensure restful nights, from which you will wake to stunning views of the bay and wildlife. The kitchen has an amazing view! Prepare the day's catch with a complete view of the bay and stream. The kitchen includes top-quality appliances, commercial grade cookware, a professional knife set, as well as complete sets of wine glasses, cups, plates and silverware for six.
The Deck and Wildlife Viewing:
The deck is just a few feet from the stream and provides the perfect vantage point for wildlife viewing (especially birding).
For anyone who has never experienced a true Alaska-style salmon stream*, it's pretty incredible! The freshwater stream is very clear. You can see the fish right from the deck. And of course, the eagles are there for the salmon as well. The Salish House is also home to cranes, osprey and other bird life. It's the Discovery Channel right outside your door.
i 'We saw at least five Bald Eagles! It was pretty incredible to see the eagles, salmon and other wildlife. I felt like I was in a National Park. It's my dream home. It really is.' -Guy Smith, Spokane, WA /i
