I didn't mind the spiral staircase to the upstairs bedrooms, but someone with physical disabilities may not be able to handle the staircase

Very nice home with good outdoor space; hosts that anticipated travelers' needs and communicated very well; very clean, comfortable, and well furnished

I wouldn't like to carry a baby up the spiral staircase and one shouldn't have any mobility issues when staying upstairs. The wifi connection was good most of the time, but suddenly stopped late in the evening during 2 of our 3 nights here. There is good mobile reception for some networks, but apparently not for all.

Cute cottage up a small hill in a small cluster of houses a few miles outside Packwood. The fact that it has three bedrooms was important for us. The master bedroom is downstairs and is wonderful, the two other bedrooms are up a narrow spiral staircase that requires some caution, but these rooms are fine for both kids and adults. The house is a good base for exploring Mount Rainier National Park: the Sunrise and Paradise areas are about a 1 hour drive. Packwood itself has several restaurants and a decent supermarket. We enjoyed our stay and would gladly return to this cottage if we were to visit the area again.

Great proximity to Mt Rainier NP, and close to town with good restaurants and groceries. The cabin was very clean, comfortable, and cozily spacious.

It was a home away from home! Lovely touches all over, and had everything we needed for the 3 nights we stayed … kitchen was well stocked with lots of condiments, cooking and BBQ items, etc. Super love the view from dining table … bonus was we saw the Northern lights from there!

The only negative was the downstairs bed. It is very creaky and made alot of noise every time we rolled over

Quiet, good kitchen with staples, great communication with hosts, wildlife around

Slightly precarious edge on fire pit, in the dark hard to see the hill side, so maybe a bit of light there or retaining wall, but we LOVED having a fire, AND watching the night sky and roasting marshmallows!

So cute! Great for a couple kids, and an additional 2 bedrooms, wow! All we could need was already there, super well stocked for a family getaway. Would stay again!!

The water pressure on the shower could be higher. The shower is a convenient telephone style so it still is better than most showers.

The location and facilities are excellent.

Everything. Very nice equipped and decorated with love. You can find probably everything what you can need. Mike, the owner, is a very kind and helpful person.

Our only things that could be improved upon were that the knives for cooking were very dull, which made it a little harder to prepare dinner, and the bed was so soft, which just isn't to our liking.

We had a wonderful stay here! We especially appreciated the cabin's ability to stay cool, after many stays in Packwood over the years with subpar AC during heat waves. The cabin is incredibly well-stocked with just about anything you could think to need (dishware, spices & condiments, bathroom supplies). It's on a quiet street convenient to town & Mt. Rainier and the hosts are very available and helpful should you need something.

Location is awesome

Slightly scary driveway, but we figured it out.

Very well designed space with everything we could possibly want. Great view, nice loft for our son, comfortable master bedroom. Easy distance to Mt Rainier and other hikes, etc. Town has all the basics.

the bathroom would need a little update

great hosts, the cabin was waiting for us open (we were notified by text message), great view, nice neighborhood, we found everything we needed

Bed and pillows can use a refresh.

Excellent location, quiet neighborhood, glad for the washer and dryer. Easy access to Mount Rainier entrances. Fun public river access to cool off.

It was a wonderful getaway. The door was unlocked for us on when we arrived, and the heat was on. It was a lovely place and I would definitely go again.

Enjoyed the cabin like feel, the quietness it brings being in the woods. Along with exploring the great outdoors.

The driveway up to the cabin is quite steep with a sharp turn where you have to back up. The spiral stairs up to the loft are kind of treaturous. It's a bit scary to go up and down. The top railing is coming out from the wall, so be careful not to pull on it.

Cozy, beautiful views. Cabin had a lot of supplies to make you feet at home.We made dinner and breakfast. It was very peaceful there

Cabin was well stocked. Everything was well cleaned and maintained.

Absolutely fantastic atmosphere! We felt at ease and welcome. The cabin is very well equipped. We have spent a good time at the property - definitely too short ;-)

The stay was perfect!

Really well stocked. Appreciated all of the condiments and dishes, especially exceptional for cooking meals. Very comfortable bed and pillows!

Like I said, the steps up to the loft bedrooms are pretty adventurous, but if you don't need to get up in the night, or you're pretty handy on a spiral staircase, you'll be fine. We managed the driveway just fine if you follow Mike's instructions.

The setting for the cabin is spectacular and the host Mike, was beyond helpful and went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable, including recommendations for our next stops. Highlight were sitting on the terrace with deer grazing nearby, and the views down the track from the breakfast table. Clean and well equipped, this is a smallish place, but plenty for the two of us. You'd want to put kids or more athletic group members up in the loft area because of the steps, but we stayed on the ground floor and honestly, could not have enjoyed it more. Close to Packwood and a range of walks nearby, wish we'd had a week instead of a few days and it still wouldn't have been enough.
