Check in directions were excellent. The property is inviting, clean and cozy. Several restaurants and cafes are close by. The property manager was super responsive in replacing an empty propane tank for the outdoor grill.

Cute cabin near Mount Ranier SW entrance

Cute, clean room close to Mount Rainier National Park's SW entrance. Easy access to park entrance, in a nice town with a grocery, restaurant, and shops. The hot tub was a delight after a day exploring the park, and the grill was handy to cook a quick supper.

Great little room for a short stay

My wife and I wanted overnight accommodation so that we could enter Mount Rainier National Park early the next day and this was exactly what we needed. The room was well appointed and comfortable. The directions were very clear. No complaints.

Super cute convenient place to stay for access to Rainier

We loved it. Used the grill and fire pit as well as the hot tub. It was a bit small but perfect for what we needed for a little weekend getaway.

Wonderful stay!

We had a great time staying here. Perfect location for access to Mt. Rainier all of the outdoor adventures nearby. The room was exactly as described and will gladly be returning in the future. It was warm and cozy. The fire pit was perfect for hanging out, cooking dinner over and meeting the other guests. Thank you for a wonderful getaway!

What s cute little place! Not individual cabins, but still very private and comfortable. The hot tub was perfect for the cold weather. And it was really nice to wake up to a light dusting of snow. Select places to go to for food or drinks. But perfect for a quiet weekend.

Peaceful stay in a great location

Had a lovely, cozy cabin stay in the snow. Owners kept the property so well maintained and were very accommodating. Very convenient location to Mount Rainier National Park and not too far from main roads & shops in the Ashford area. Can't wait to return in warmer weather and get into that hot tub!

As advertised

A snug little room, just big enough for the queen sized bed, no other furniture, exactly as pictured in the ad. Nice bathroom with a good shower. We stayed there in the winter and it was well heated. The hot tub was great! Note that the entrance to the driveway is slightly offset from the driveway itself -- mind the ditch!

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Scott, from Washington State, USA! I'm a hiker, traveler, and professional pilot who also has a love for cabins and fixing up old houses. Nature and local history are two of my greatest passions, so it's a privilege to be able to host folks from around the world to show them what the Pacific Northwest has to offer!

Why they chose this property

Ashford is a sleepy little mountain town with a long history dating back to the logging days of the late 1800s, and long ago, was the terminus for the railroad bringing visitors in to see the majesty of Mt. Rainier, or "Tahoma" as the native peoples called it. It is an area of immense beauty, history, and serenity, surrounded by nature, friendly folks, and sitting humbly below our majestic Mountain.

What makes this property unique

The main house at Ashford Lodge was built in 1917 out of the immense old-growth Douglas Fir trees that once covered the landscape, and as such, is truly connected to the land itself. Over the years it has been the home of loggers, farmers, and more recently, has welcomed visitors from near and far looking for a rustic mountain escape at the base of Mt. Rainier. The guest house, garage, and barn were built in the 1980s by the Osterhaus family, who owned the property for many years and turned it into a beloved local bed and breakfast. I bought the property in 2021 and have done my best to honor its history and rustic charm while giving it some modern updates and giving visitors a great place to stay while visiting The Mountain. Walk the trails of our property, crane your neck at the towering trees (a veritable botanical garden with dozens of species), breathe the fresh air, chat with our friendly staff, meet our adorable lodge cat "Dude", and relax by the fire... You will see why this place is special.
