Cabin history: This historic cabin was built by Otto T. Trott, M.D. who was co founder and physician of Mountain Rescue of the U.S.A and a Ski Patrol doctor at Mt. Baker for 44 years. Dr. Trott was also an original organizer of the National Volunteer Ski Patrol. He was a famous diagnostician, surgeon, epidemiologist and tuberculosis expert and his teaching lectures are still being used today in hospitals and Universities. A ski run "Ottobahn" is named in his honor. Our family remembers and honors Lou Whitaker who passed away this Spring who was a friend and one of Otto's early climbing students.

Life in the Forest
This cozy, clean, and solidly built cabin is an ideal location for a ski trip to Mt. Baker. Well appointed kitchen, host even supplied ground coffee for the coffee maker. Lovely living room space with all you need to build a fire. We enjoyed the old school receiver, speakers and CD player, great collection of old CDs. Internet was quite serviceable for our needs. You are truly in the forest here with no evidence of neighbors although you are just a couple minutes from the local bakery. Really could not ask for a better situation for our group for the long weekend!

Beautiful, private and clean
We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the Trott Cabin!! We definitely want to come back and stay another time! What a perfect and peaceful place for us to just unwind in this majestic, private place! Renate is amazing to communicate with! We loved reading about the history of her dad! Skiing, snowboarding, hiking or just want privacy and a lil getaway … This is the place to come! Thank you so much for the memories with our son and daughter in law! Tina Riggins

Lovely Forest Preserve With Awesome Views!
Me and my guests just completed a wonderful trip to this delightful forested preserve of a property. It was cozy and inviting, with comfortable beds, piping hot showers in demand, and a gorgeous view of Church Mountain. We cooked delicious meals together with a full kitchen, and played on the large rotating Scrabble board both nights. We could have watched some fun looking titles of the film selection, but had too much fun just playing and reading. It is great to have good reading lights above each bed. We discovered the long railway easement road across the highway opposite the cabin which takes you through a lovely moss covered walk all the way into Glacier, where we enjoed a muffin and coffee at the Wakenbake Bakery and Cafe. The helpful signs the host put up gave us good instructions about how best to manage this lovely secluded cabin in the woods. And it was SO quiet, we could hear owls!

About the host

Host profile image
I am one of the daughters of the late Otto T. Trott M.D. who was a Mt. Baker Ski Patrol physician and co founder of Mountain Rescue. Seattle Mountain Rescue just celebrated the 75th year anniversary honoring the three founders. Dr. Trott was an early founder of the national ski patrol as well.
I volunteered as a ski patrol at Mt. Baker. We maintain the rainforest property for wildlife and our guests. This lovely property is a pleasure to explore. I hope you will enjoy this historic, rustic and charming cabin. Views of Church Mountain are stunning and giant cedars and wild berries grow here. This cabin is in the banana belt which is why Mt. Baker gets record snow falls. The weather off of the Straits of Juan de Fuca also keeps the rain forest lush and green throughout the Spring and Summer. I love this cabin and property in an unspoiled rainforest which my husband and I maintain for wildlife and for our guests, it is magical!

Why they chose this property

My family used to have a cabin at the ski area before the area was developed. The old cabin at the ski area was built onto the dressing room used in the movie "call of the Wild" with Clark Gable and Loretta Young. We had the cabin for 25 years and when they tore it down we built another cabin in the town of Glacier. It is a shame that they did not preserve the old cabin as a museum because it was so cool. We had to dig stairs down in the deep snow ( 40 feet ) to reach the door to the cabin. Back then there were wolves, bear, cougar, marmots, martins, owls, ravines and all kinds of mountain creatures. It was heaven.

What makes this property unique

The property has lovely mountain views and is private and in a large with intact rainforest and wildlife use it. When you visit this place it feels like the world is far away and the peace and natural beauty creates relaxation. Sometimes wildlife will visit and leave a variety of animal prints after a fresh snowfall. I love spending Christmas and New years at this cabin. The views of Church Mountain are breathtaking.
