Thanks for helping in making great memories

The house was very well stocked and comes with a beautiful piece of property around us. It felt very cozy even though it had lots of room for our group of 4 to spread out. So close to Nisqually entrance into Mt Ranier Park which made it super convenient. Highly recommend this house for your stay while visiting Mt Rainier Park.

Wonderful location & cozy house

Great Weekend by the Mountain

We love Mt Rainier so much! And this cabin was a perfect home base for exploration. Nice indoor and outdoor space and close walk down to the river. My little niece left behind an iPad in a drawer in the cabin and Christy was very kind and helpful in getting it back to us. Thanks so much!

Great Family Getaway

The descriptions are spot on. The house was actually more spacious than I thought. The amenities were perfect. The kitchen is well stocked and we had all the tools we needed. The beds were comfortable. The hot tub was exactly what we needed and no chlorine smell was a plus. Thank you for a very comfortable stay. Definitely one of the best stays I’ve had with a vacation rental.

Beautiful cabin in the best location

We had the best time during our stay! The house is beautiful and PERFECTLY located literally a minute from the Nisqually entrance. It’s well equipped with everything you need- kitchen supplies, bedding, even sticks for s’mores by the bonfire. The host is super responsive and we loved the contactless check in /check out process. We had the best stay.

Doorstep of Mt. Rainier National Park

What a nice place! It was right outside the Nisqually Entrance to Mt. Rainier so it was easy to get to the hiking trails early. The house had a nice layout with enough room for everyone. The hot tub was appreciated after a long day hiking. We would stay here again if we are in the area!

Mt Ranier Awesomeness!

I can’t say enough good things about this beautiful home! It is everything described and so much more! The host is super helpful and communicative. The home is gorgeous and has plenty of space, from the rooms to the large kitchen and dining room table! We used it as our “home base” since it is right by the entrance to Mt Ranier. The salt water hot tub was perfect after hiking in the snow and rain. This has become my new favorite national park and I would only want to stay at this amazing home!

Awesome experience overall. The owners where very communicative and had all the information we needed before we even got to the home. The location is awesome and is less then a mile from the park. I would come here again if we came back to Rainer. The house rules where also very easy to follow.

Truly beautiful cabin just outside the gate of Mt Rainier. The cabin was fully stocked with everything you need. My whole family, who were visiting from abroad, enjoyed it so much. Make sure you make smores at the fire pit. The kids loved it.

Amazing property and stay!

Christy’s cabin was the hub of our elopement and it was absolutely perfect! The cabin was very clean, had the essentials we needed for the week and we loved the outdoor area with picnic tables, firepit and hottub! Christy had great communication from the start! There was plenty of parking and the proximity to the park entrance doesn’t get much better! The bed and sheets were super comfortable! Thank you for sharing your space Christy! We had an amazing stay!
