The location was great. Very close to the park, we had minimal cell service but the WiFi supported our party just fine. The beds were comfy and the lodging was clean. Hottub wasnt very hot, and the TV was a bit wonky with getting hooked up. The stove is gas and this did cause some hiccups with cooking but that could be user error. Overall good place.

Loved the fact this place was right at the entrance to Mt. Rainier. When visiting national parks and hiking all day it's nice to not have a long drive back to where you are staying. Also the hot tub was a nice bonus to relaxing in after a long day of hiking.

Hot tub was amazing and the location was phenomenal. Unfortunately, when we arrived the towels were unclean and almost all of the regular towels smelled of stale water or sweat.

Perfect basecamp for Mt Rainier

We loved our stay here! It was the perfect location, literally a couple hundred yards from the entrance to the park. The nearby Nisqually river was fun also. Well-stocked kitchen, fun fire pit and hot tub, comfy beds and plenty of room for our group of 9. Highly recommend!

The cabin was incredible. We loved the spaciousness of it. The hot tub was wonderful after a day of hiking. The place was clean, beds were comfortable, water pressure is shower was great.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

We really enjoyed our stay. Very spacious, clean and comfy beds. Well stocked kitchen/house. Tap water was refreshing/great for drinking - so nice not to have to but bottled. Enjoyed our beautiful evening walks along the river a black away and great location to Mt Rainier entrance. Enjoyed close by casual restaurants.
