About this property

Come and stay at the Knotty Lodge in Glacier, a one of a kind rustic mountain retreat, with luxury amenities, custom built by NW Reclaimed in 2013.

As you walk in you are immediately greeted by huge 8x8' rough sawn exposed timbers that come from an old illinois barn, built in 1898. A pleasant mix of barn beams, reclaimed wood walls and sleek drywall creates an extremely cozy and inviting space. Looking across the expansive white granite kitchen counter, a giant stacked stone wood burning fireplace with a 55' flatscreen takes center stage in the main room. Custom wood floors in living areas, slate in kitchen and lower bath, and plush carpet in the bedrooms. Main floor features a queen sized bedroom and main bath with large walk in shower and laundry closet. 2 queen bedrooms upstairs are separated by a large bathroom done in travertine. Double sinks on a custom made walnut slab vanity, glass frame walk in shower with double shower heads and exposed wood beams create a spa like atmosphere. Large upstairs loft area with cozy sectional couches overlooks the living area with the fireplace and hand made antler chandelier.

Our place was designed and built in an eco friendly manner, with our guests ultimate comfort in mind. For this reason we went with all energy star rated appliances and lighting, high grade wood windows, premium insulation, and no voc paints and finishes. Our top of the line trane heating system is amended by a 99.9% HEPA filter and an HRV unit that constantly circulates air through the home to maintain clean and fresh air.
Landscaping around the home was done using all native rock that was excavated during construction. Hot tub, fire pit and storage shed in private backyard setting surrounded by tall trees. Sunny front patio is a perfect place to enjoy an afternoon drink while taking in the view of slide mountain.

PNW Spring Break

The owners of Knotty Lodge provide an absolute top level of service and experience. The home was immaculately clean, check in seamless, and communication with the host was rapid and informative. Our family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our stay (5yr old and 9 yr old children). The kitchen has every item one could possibly need to prepare a meal. The home is equipped with games, books and even a small toy box for young children. The neighborhood is quiet. Mt. Baker is about a 30 minute drive away. The Skagit Valley with the Tulip Festival is about an hour away. Glacier, WA itself is small with limited resources therefore we recommend shopping for groceries and sundries in Burlington (Costco, Target, Haggan’s, Fred Myer Grocery). Overall, you and absolutely cannot go wrong selecting the Knotty Lodge for your accommodation needs. Truly a remarkable home.

A magical stay!

My family and I stayed at the lodge over Christmas. It was beautifully decorated with all things Christmas - including a tree! The hosts also left little surprises which my little boy loved discovering. The property itself is well taken care of and very clean. It's well stocked and has everything you need for a home away from home. Top notch appliances etc. Thank you for making our Christmas away from home magical - we highly recommend to all guests.

Amazing Trip to the Lodge

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Knotty Lodge. The accommodations were perfect for our family. The lodge was beautiful and no detail was missed. We certainly will be back when we come to visit our family again in Washington!

Beautiful & Unique Cabin

Our family of 6 adults, one infant, and a dog, stayed here for 10 days for our annual family Christmas getaway. Everyone loved the cabin, the big fireplace, the hot tub, and proximity to Mt. Baker recreation. Csaba was indeed a super host with great communication, thoughtful follow up on how we were doing and even an extra load of firewood when we ran out. We found great local coffee shops nearby including the Wake & Bakery and Grahams in Glacier. Both were top notch for food and service. Crossroads in Maple Falls turned out to be a great little grocery store for picking up little things to cook dinners. The hike near the grocery store to see the falls was great too. Two of us were working throughout the week and the wifi / bandwidth was plenty fast for all of our remote meetings, movie streaming, phones, etc. If Mt Baker is your destination then definitely consider this property, you won't be disappointed. The construction of the interior of the cabin is very fun and uniquely done, there are little treasures to be found in cubby holes all over the cabin so my wife left a handmade Christmas ornament to be found by future guests.

About the host

Hosted by Csaba Mundi

We are the Mundis, more specifically Csaba and Rosemary and our little boy, Baxton:) Rosemary works a physical therapist in Blaine and Csaba is a contractor/reclaimed wood fanatic working all over the place.
We grew up in Whatcom County and have been a huge fan of the mountains and snowboarding for all our lives. Ever since we first met in 2006 we both agreed that we wanted a place in beautiful Glacier WA. We got married in 2012 and decided to build our first dream home all at the same time. The foundation for the knotty lodge, was poured on the day of our wedding. -talk about crazy :)
We love meeting new people from all around and sharing a slice of the mountain lifestyle with each and every guest we welcome at the Knotty Lodge.

Hope to se you soon!

Csaba & Rosemary

Why they chose this property

Csaba rescued an old barn from Illinois that was built in 1898, knowing that he wanted to build a reclaimed timber home using all the wood he had salvaged. Two years later we acquired our beautiful southern facing lot in the glacier springs community. We had been looking for years at this awesome little neighborhood near Mt. Baker with a laid back lifestyle and the best water in the state.
After we bought the property, we designed the home around the timbers Csaba had salvaged, and built it ourselves with the help of our great friends and family. Our appreciation for using reclaimed and eco friendly materials is evident throughout the home from the native stone fireplace to the hand made barn wood furnishings.
The Knotty Lodge has become a much appreciated get-away destination for many guests since we entered the vacation rental market in Dec 2013
The Knotty Lodge is our first vacation property, and an exceptional showpiece for Csaba's business in log and timber homes and wood working.
We are proud to have one of the nicest places in Glacier, we keep it clean and new and love welcoming all our guests to enjoy it as well.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy the feel of a historic 115 year old barn frame resurrected into a beautiful home, top of the line finishes through out, and user friendliness of a modern home are just few perks our property offers. Not having any immediate neighbors makes it a very private and peaceful place. Unwind from the busy city life, or a long day on the slopes in the brand new hot tub, or sip a glass of wine in front of the Rumford fire place.
