Welcome to Skagit River Resort...

The "Loop" is a Loop Once Again! Highway 20 - The North Cascades Highway opened early this year April 16th. Kudos to the Highway Department they got the highway open before fishing season started, just like the old days and the travelers are once again eager to visit the communities along the Cascade Loop.

Spring is a colorful time of year to get out and explore the mountains. This last week was our "Eighty" shades of green week...an awesome sight. Tulips and daffodils are in full bloom and folks are having lots of fun at the annual Tulip Festival in the Skagit Valley. There are lots of great things to do, while visiting and photographing the flower fields. Balsamroot blossoms are appearing on the mountain trails and hillsides surrounding the Methow and Wenatchee Valleys. And in the Puget Sound, whales begin their annual migration in the Puget Sound. Spring is an exciting time of the year!

Tootsie's family accompanied her up to the opening of the North Cascades Highway pass this year again. We took 90 of her cinnamon rolls, and everyone really enjoyed the rolls, coffee and the company. The weather cooperated and the sun peeked thru, and at the top of the pass even a little round of snow flakes. We measured the snow and there was just a little over a pickup in height of snow, thats' the way our family measures the snow up there. We remember when it used to be 2 1/2 to 3 pickups high.

Do make plans to come to the Skagit River Resort on your trip over the pass. The cabins are waiting for you. For reservations call 1-800-273-2606. If you want a cinnamon roll just call and reserve it at the Eatery at 1-360-873-2041 just to make sure one is waiting for you and you aren't disappointed when they are all gone.

Grant thanks for all you have done and Jeff for keeping us all posted about the pass conditions.

Ladder Creek Falls in Newhalem on the hillside behind the Gorge power plant is really great to see when you are here, especially at dusk and just after dark. Seattle City Light has put 1.5 million dollars into new lighting along the trails and watercourse, and the effect is magical!.

Judi is still doing weddings at the Wildwood Chapel. It really is a wonderful place to have your special day. as the oh so tiny chapel is quite memorable when all the wedding decoration are up. Don't forget the Eatery can host your wedding dinner and the cabins are also available for your wedding party, so book it and make some wonderful memories. Now is the time to book space for your summer family reunion. Our economy cabins, RV spots in the Sun & Forest Courts, plus tent camping on the Lawn Court, means families can get together inexpensively for a memorable family gathering.

Review Trail Conditions and view our huge wall-mounted Trails Map, and find guide sheets to specific trails at the Resort Office. Or for the very latest info we suggest you talk to folks at the US Park Service info building just east of us on Ranger Station Road in Marblemount.

Plan to enjoy one of the Bullerville Trails on your next visit, whatever the season. The River Trail is always popular, leading from the Chapel down to and along the bank of the Skagit. And the new Upland Trail, in the forest west and northwest of the resort's cabins, should be a very nice trail for year-round use also. It is about a 2.5 miles long, meandering through our forest, with several connecting loops for people who might want to make the trek shorter. Regional lowland trails are usually accessible all or most of the year.

The Clark Family

Skagit River Resort, on Highway 20 near Marblemount at the western entrance to Washington State's fabulous North Cascades mountain range, awaits your visit. Situated at the historic village site of Bullerville, the Resort is the perfect place to unwind. It has been described as one of the most restful, relaxing, feed the rabbits, best place to kiss, listen to the frogs, places in the North Cascades. Open year round, the atmosphere is homey, the rates are reasonable and the unique accommodations are ideal for just two, families or larger gatherings.

Located on the western approach to the North Cascades National Park , we house many folks who stay to enjoy our majestic mountains, whether by hiking, rafting, mountain climbing or just driving the highway or back roads to absorb the splendor of the alpine forest, abundant waterfalls and glacier-covered peaks. We are less than two miles from the park's Back-Country Information Office where you can inquire about the many things to do and see in this young park. Backpacking permits and trail maps are available. The Park's boundary is about seven miles east of us.

We hope you will join us this year. Pick the season, there are things to do and see at any time of the year. Come have a restful stay with us at the village of Bullerville and Clark's Skagit River Resort, the only resort with cabins on the west side of the Park accessible by Highway 20. Our bunnies would like to vacation with you, too!
