History
"Luxury in Logs" best describes these rustic log buildings. We offer 14 rooms - each uniquely designed and decorated around a different person or theme. Each unit has a kitchenette area (microwave, compact refrigerator and bar sink), direct dial phone, cable TV and a choice of fresh or Soap Lake mineral water for your bath. Five of our rooms also offer in-room whirlpools. Each room is individually furnished and appointed including beautiful epoxied tables and vanities with artifacts and memorabilia worked into layers of epoxy making each a separate work of art.

The original Notaras Lodge two-story building (opened August 1983) was lost in a fire June 5th, 1998. Before its construction, the owner, Marina Romary enjoyed collecting hundreds of pictures and mementos for decorating the lodge rooms and the epoxied slab tables from local residents, relatives, neighbors and friends. Many of the items on the walls and in the tables were irreplaceable artifacts, primitives and antiques. A lot of the decor from the original Lodge building was salvaged andis being used in the newer rooms.

The design and construction of each Notaras Lodge building and room was accomplished by local tradesmen. During the construction of the different buildings, logs were shipped from the Methow Valley and Nespelum in Washington and from Northern Idaho. Many of the ideas for the decor of the rooms were added as the work progressed. You will find different rooms include tooled leather light switch covers, beds made of logs, cistern pump water faucets and many other unique touches.

Whether you have a compact vehicle or an 18-wheeler, Notaras Lodge provides plenty of off-street parking to accomodate our unique rooms.

Conferences, large group meetings, classes, special events can be held here.
