We loved our stay at the Elk House. The house was very clean, and everything worked properly. The location was perfect for visiting Mt. Rainier National Park. We would definitely recommend this property.

Great place to stay. Very clean fully stocked kitchen. Nice fireplace area. Grill was clean and fired up right away. Quite area with gas and food close and only 20 minutes from rainier entrance. Hit very little traffic going in and out at Steven's canyon entrance. Definitely staying here if we come back. Only issue we had with GPS was it did not find the road as trail even though the street sign says trail. After arriving we found if we put in lane it worked. But instructions from host were perfect and explained how to get there.

Perfect for our stay.

The layout and the roominess of the house gave all of us adequate space to enjoy our stay. The location was close to Mount Rainier and gave us an opportunity to visit the park. The neighborhood is quiet we were able to do a little walking in the area on our first day of arrival. All in all we had a great stay And enjoyed ourselves at the home home imp Packwood.

The great outdoor break

We had a wonderful time during our stay and even extended an extra day. Enjoyed Mt. Rainier and White pass. The house is well equipped and clean and our evening were spent building puzzles and playing cards and enjoying our family time away from the usual business of work and school. Will definitely come back.

Everything we wanted was there!

From the outside it didn’t look bad but omg when you opened the door and came in we were blown away. I’ve never stayed at such a gorgeous place! Everything we could have wanted or needed was there. We held a family reunion and all my siblings and mom stayed there and it was wonderful. Thx

Hiking

Place was great! Clean and everything we needed. Just wish we would have known that the nearest enterence to Mt Rainier was closed Mon.- Fri. and we had to enter in a different enterence over a hour away.

Great base for hiking Mt Rainier NP, Goat Rocks Wilderness & Mt St Helens

We found Elk House to be very clean, modern with a fully equipped kitchen. The location was quiet. Check-in was efficient and management responded when the AC went down during a heat dome. Unfortunately, the AC couldn't be repaired, so we tried to cool the house off at night. The beds were comfortable and the showers had great water pressure. The linens were very nice. Washer/dryer available onsite. We enjoyed our 5 night stay!

Serene place in the woods...

We greatly enjoyed our week in the Elk House, very clean, well appointed and spacious. It's situated in a quiet neighborhood in the woods, loved our evenings by the fire (s'mores!). I'd recommend a stop at the Safeway in Enumclaw on the way as the Blanton Store in Packwood has a very limited assortment. Re access to Mount Rainier NP, very important to book admission online, there's timed entry and you may not get in if you just drive up to the park entrance. We went on many great day trips (Mt St Helens) and Packwood is a great base camp. Highly recommend the Elk House!

Stay in Packwood, outside Mt. Rainer

This property sits in neighborhood of rentals outside the Mt. Rainer park. Roads were still closed into the park in late April. Restaurants are conveniently located nearby. The house itself was well stocked with everything you might want or need. There was a couple items that kept me from giving a 5 star rating. The upstairs shower leaked on the floor. We took care of it by placing towels on the floor. The other was a missing remote for the upstairs TV. When brought to management's attention, they said it would be taken care of for the next guest. A 5 star response would be for them to get us one for our stay.

Dear Future Guests, Just for some clarity, there is no TV upstairs. What you will find is a computer monitor with a HDMI cord for you to hook up your laptop to stream movies off your laptop and onto the monitor. We apologize for any confusion, but there is no remote to be provided for the computer monitor. Additionally, the monitor has been labeled to avoid any confusion in the future. Thank you, - TMC Vacation Rentals

We had a great stay at Elk House! The place was clean and well equipped for our 4 nights stay hiking Rainier NP. Very comfortable beds. The house is in a quiet and serene setting. The location is great if you are visiting Rainier NP. Not sure what other reviewers' comment about Stevens Canyon entrance only open on weekend, We were able to use that entrance both weekend and weekday. Park ranger did indicate that Stevens Canyon Road is closed starting November. It is great that the house is less 50 minutes to many top hiking trailheads. One recommendation, get grocery and supply before you head into Packwood. There is only one "grocery store" and expect to pay double for everything and selection is pretty limited. Overall, we loved our stay at this place.

We had a great stay and would definitely recommend this property. Great location near Rainer. The home was very clean, well-maintained, and had plenty of space for our group to spread out and relax. The beds were comfortable, which made for a great night’s sleep after lots of hiking. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we would happily stay here again.

Holiday break

The house is larger than what the pictures shown on the website. We found the house to have good quality amenities. Its just outside of Packwood and in easy reach of White Pass, which is why we selected it for our family ski trip. The host provided a cell number to text and was responsive to all our communications. We had also asked for one or two items not listed and the host had those on site before we arrived. As it was winter we did not experience the back yard or have any contact with neighbors. Had a great time with family in an enjoyable get away home that we will consider again.
