Knotty Shack Cabin-Unique Log Cabin with Hot Tub Stay, Explore, Retreat & Repeat
Escape to the Knotty Shack, a unique tiny log cabin with its own private hot tub, perfect for couples seeking a romantic retreat. As you enter, you will be struck by the intricate handcrafted custom woodwork, showcasing the attention to detail put into creating this one-of-a-kind tiny home.
Despite its size, the cabin boasts all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay. Relax by the indoor fireplace or catch up on your favorite shows on the 24-inch smart TV, with access to your own Netflix or Prime accounts. Whip up your favorite meals in the fully-equipped kitchen, featuring a full-size stove, refrigerator, Keurig coffee machine, and all the cooking essentials you need.
Take advantage of the community lake, where you can fish, swim, or just soak up the sun. Explore the surrounding hiking trails and enjoy the stunning natural beauty of Ashford.
Please note that there is no dining table or dishwasher in the cabin, but alfresco dining is available on the patio, complete with a BBQ grill and fire pit for cozy evenings under the stars.
Unwind in the hot tub, the perfect place to relax and unwind after a day of adventure. And if you need anything during your stay, our local contact is just a phone call away.
Come experience the charm of Paradise Estates, a neighborhood of eclectic homes and camping sites. Please note that there is no public transportation in Ashford, so we recommend purchasing supplies prior to your arrival, as the nearest grocery store has only the basics. But don't worry, beer and wine are available! And should you need it, firewood can be purchased at the general store or the firewood vending machine.
Book your stay at the Knotty Shack, as featured on the Visit Mt. Rainier website, and experience a unique and unforgettable getaway with your loved one.

About the host
Hosted by Patrick Buchignani

Raised as a "military brat", I was lucky to travel the world. No surprise my family decided to settle in Washington State. My trips to Mt. Rainier have always held a special place in my heart. My husband Patrick came for a visit in the mid 80's and fell in love with the mountain. Now we are lucky enough to have a cabin near the Paradise entrance. We recently also acquired the "Knotty Shack" and are happy to continue to rent it as a short-term rental.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with this adorable cabin and were excited to continue it as a short-term rental. Paradise Estates is our home-away from home and we are excited to share this unique log cabin with people who will appreciate it and Mount Rainier.
What makes this property unique
*****Please note that power/internet can go out often due to the weather conditions in the mountains; however, the Knotty Shack has a built-in generator installed, so no more power outages! You can even enjoy the hot tub during a power outage****.
