  • Fall is for fires and marshmallows

    My family headed over to the Skyline Chalet this week and tried out the fire pit while toasting some yummy marshmallows.
    Did you know that in Glaicer there are such strict fire rules that most properties are not actually allowed to have fires in their yards while complying with the rules?
    The Skyline Chalet is one of the few homes that actually complies with the rules. The large fire pit in the yard is open year round except during specific burn bans, so bring your marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers and enjoy this beautiful fire pit outside of our luxurious home!

  • New Place To Stay By The Mt Baker Ski Area Coming Soon!

Baker wilderness, and is among the closest lodging to the Mt. Baker Ski Area. It has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and comfortably sleeps 6. It has a private hot tub, and a community swimming pool in summer, and it’s dog friendly.
