Beautiful property. Convenient to Hwy 12 for exploring the area, but remote enough to have dark skies for gazing at the amazing stars and Milky Way from the hot tub and deck. Great house. Hit all the boxes for a family experience.

The visiting elk around sunset were amazing. We loved stargazing from the hot tub after a family dinner at the big dining room table. Great location for hiking in the National Park and then coming here to relax!

Great homebase for our Mount Rainier hiking excursions. There were deer and elk in the immediate neighborhood each morning at sunrise, a wonderful plus. The house was great, beds comfortable, everything clean - great stay. Thanks so much.

Lovely home!

We had a wonderful stay! It is always fun when your family sees a home for the first time and says, "Wow!" We loved the sitting area with the giant windows. The home was very clean and comfortable (however, the bed upstairs was too soft for us, so we slept downstairs). It was a great base for exploring Mount Rainier NP. We would definitely stay here again.

The house was an absolute dream. The fireplace was massive and beautiful. The setting was perfect at the base of Mt. Rainier. We came back from hiking to be greeted by 15 elk sitting in the front yard.

Prior to our stay we traveled across the Olympic Peninsula so we were hopping from hotel to hotel. It felt so nice to land in a home for a few days. The house was clean, cozy, and perfect for our short stay. We loved watching the elk graze in the yard on our first night while relaxing in the hot tub!
Beautiful view of the stars!
Cozy spot for morning caffienation!

Quiet and Peaceful

Just what my niece and I needed after 2 weeks land and sea Alaska. Also, the hot tub was great after hiking at Mt. Rainier. Could have used instructions on how to turn on surround sound speakers but all-in-all a relaxing stay. Thank you.

This is a very lovely property in a wonderful HOA neighborhood with beautiful walks available right out your front door! My husband really enjoyed the expansive yard big enough to practice his disc golfing in! :) It felt very private and just sitting on the deck was a joy! We loved how the out-of-doors is invited into every room with all the big windows! The kitchen was very well equipped with a large island, great refrigerator, and a gas stove. We enjoyed doing jig saw puzzles and playing games on the large kitchen table. Packwood and nearby nature is at your fingertips! Enjoy!

Comfy country living

Really enjoyed the homey style of this property! A wonderfully kept yard and nice deck for hanging out, this place felt like a home away from home. The comfiest beds and lots of fans and heaters were provided if needed. We really appreciated the level of thought put into providing comfort, not just looking nice or modern.

Our stay went off without a hitch. The property was easy to find at night. The house was just as advertised and exceeded our expectations in person. The house was clean and well stocked and nicely decorated for the holiday season. We would definitely stay here again.
