Anniversary Trip

This house is so cute and cozy and feels like a home away from home. This was the second time we have stayed at this property for our anniversary and plan to continue booking here for anniversaries to come. We very much enjoyed the hot tub and the jacuzzi tub, very relaxing. They do a very good job at the upkeep of the property and provide little extras that make the experience/vacation even better. Cant wait to come back next year!

Stayed 4 nights in May 2023

Would absolutely visit again!

This was a perfect place to stay for our 20th Anniversary getaway! The table was large enough for puzzles and board games. The hot tub is very private and easy to set at the desired temperature - something I no longer take for granted at rentals. The whole place was just the right size for us, and felt light and airy. The kitchen was well-stocked, letting us cook several meals easily. (Do make sure that you only drink and cook with water from the filtered tap, as indicated.) Location: Even though other units are on the property, we always had great privacy. We really loved that we were only minutes from Mt Rainier National Park - no long drive after a day of hiking. We also recommend the nearby Ukrainian restaurant - they had really delicious food, especially the Borsch and the Galushki!Overall this rental was fantastic, and we would absolutely visit again!

Relaxing Vacation

We had an amazing time! The home was perfect and had everything we needed. It was clean, close to the park entrance and other amenities, and quiet. We hope to return!

Wonderful Cottage in Winter

This cottage was just wonderful for our 10-day snowy winter stay. Electric heat, gas fireplace, and hot tub on the deck, all stayed toasty during our stay. Local power was out for 4 hours one day due to downed line during a windy snow storm, but the cottage generator kicked on seamlessly and everything worked great. The driveway was plowed for us too! The cottage was well stocked with everything we needed and then some for our long stay. At the Ashford town park, there is a really nice 1-mile nature trail for walking or snow shoeing. We also discovered there are miles of trails nearby for cross-country skiing, snow shoeing or hiking that are groomed & maintained by the Tahoma Trail association. We found more trails at Longmire in the Rainier Nat'l Park. We had hoped to get up to Paradise in the snow but the road there was closed due to fallen trees. So...we have reason to return! We would definitely stay in this cozy cottage again. It is in a great location for outdoor activities any time of year!
