Property has everything you need. The location was very central for going into Packwood and heading to Mount Rainier. The hot tub was a wonderful treat after hiking all day. And the wood-burning stove was very nice. The home interior is very dated and needs some updates as far as the couch and the bathrooms.Shower in the downstairs master very small.The beds were very comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed..Would suggest a new couch! And some towel racks in the bathrooms. And a light above the sink in the downstairs bathroom.. overall, the property was OK and met all of our needs.
We had an awesome time here relaxing and enjoying our time at the mountain

The first thing to know is that there is no cellular coverage at this location. You need to record both how to access the place and how to access the internet somewhere where you don't need to depend on cellular coverage. I had to drive to town to get some coverage so that I could get the info I needed. Even then, for some reason, the password given for the WiFi did not work. The beds were comfortable. The shower on the first floor was very small. The living room and dining room were comfortable. We weren't there long enough to use the kitchen nor any of the outdoor amenities.
It was a good spot for visiting Mt. Rainier. Bathrooms small and a bit outdated. Same with Kitchen. Beds were not the most comfortable. Very soft and older. Hot tub was not filled and chemicals not up to date.
This was a super comfortable property. Very spacious with large bedrooms and beds. Great proximity for both sides of Mount Rainier and White Pass area to the east. Would love to stay there again.

Property was not clean when we arrived. Apparently, the cleaner had an emergency and neglected to inform the property owner. It was later in the evening upon our arrival, but owner reached out by phone immediately to address our concerns. She apologized profusely and refunded our money. She offered to send out cleaners first thing in the morning as well. The remainder of our stay was uneventful. Location is great, convenient to Mt Rainier and Packwood. Packwood is a great little town, several restaurants and a good little grocery store. The only other comment is that in the listing there is a loft area with bunk beds, which was nonexistent. There were 4 total futons, 2 in one room, 1 in another room and the 4th in a small open area near the front door. There were 3 bedrooms, each with either a queen or king bed, so plenty of room for sleeping.
Overall had a great experience staying here with family when visiting Mount Ranier. Our grandkids really enjoyed playing on the playground that’s nearby.

Look for a rust red color house, not blue. That confused us as to whether or not we were at the right place. The keypad is on the deck door. The outdoor furniture needs some updating - table, chairs, and hottub needs some minor fixes like the cover has tears and the headrest on one spot is missing the other falls off. Nothing that would hinder you from using it. There are a lot of little bugs in the house, but you are in the woods. The main floor shower is small for average size people, so bigger individuals should plan on using the upstairs shower. In all fairness we had just stayed in the best VRBO in Winthrop we had ever stayed in just before this, so we might have been a little jaded.

We did a quick two day trip to Mt Rainer. Location was great to get in and out. We were able to go in SE entrance on Sunday and then the North entrance on Monday. Hot tub was a bonus too!
My wife, friends and myself stayed for our anniversary weekend. We had a great time soaking in the hot tub and taking a short trip up to Mt. Rainier to enjoy the wonderful scenery and waterfalls.
We found the property to be comfortable and well stocked with needed items. When a couple issues came up, the host responded within just a few minutes.
Thank you for a great time, it was much appreciated.

The house was not well cleaned when we got there. The fridge was not well cleaned and had buildup along the edges. The freezer had red appearing crumbs in the ice box and the freezer drawers inside were dirty appearing. Very unwelcoming to put my food into. The house was not well cleaned with dirt and general house dust in all the rooms and nightstands. Some of the plates and bowls in the cabinet were not very clean appearing compared to some of the other dishes. I had to wash a pot before using it, as there was still residue from the last time it was used. The listing stated kids dishes, which there were none. It listed a toaster as an amenity, which there was not. There were only pots, no frying pan to cook with. I messaged the host asking if there was a pack and play available and never got a response. When I messaged her about the house being dirty she asked if I wanted to cleaner sent again. We asked for a toaster since it was listed, which they offered to have dropped off, which was delivered at 10:45 pm. Overall not a good experience. The house was a great location to town and the mountain. Each room had comfortable beds and a futon couch for extra sleeping space.

Great location, solid home, but not exactly what we expected
First off, we had a nice holiday weekend in the Rainier area and this home allowed us to do that. Great location. Plenty of room. Comfy furniture. Fully stocked kitchen for cooking. Nice deck with good seating areas. Fun neighborhood area. Unexpected sweet treats at Santo Milagros. About 40-45 minutes from the park entrance.
The part that wasn’t what we expected was some slight cleanliness issues (cigarette butts left in trash), misinformation in check-in guide around WiFi, but the biggest issue was with the hot tub that is a prominent part of the listing. It was not on when we got there, was about 73-75 degrees, and wouldn’t turn on without resetting the breaker. After a process of getting it up to an acceptable temperature, it required a number of additional breaker resets before we just gave up the last night of our stay. The owner was very responsive on the minor issues, but there wasn’t much that could be done about the hot tub.
Again, great location, solid home, and only minor annoyances that I’m sure will be fixed for future visitors.
My first impression of White Pass Wonder was a bit lacking from the photos. I did not recognize the house due to its different brown color. Once inside, the house was very clean and comfortable. It is VERY well stocked with kitchen and bathroom essentials. I have to say, most places we rent these days go a little cheap on the toilet tissue, but White Pass Wonder did not. The beds were clean and comfortable. The couch offered a comfortable place to rest after a long day of hiking. Location to Packwood is great. We enjoyed every place of business in Packwood and highly recommend them all. The Visitor Center is a perfect first stop and, hopefully, you will meet the lovely volunteer, Dawn, who is very knowledgeable and passionate about the area. She marked maps for us that we used every day of our stay. The Mountain Goat coffee shop had great coffee and pastries, the Packwood Brewery had great craft beers and nachos, the Blue Spruce Tavern/Saloon had great hamburgers and fries, and Nacho's Mexican Restaurant was delicious and authentic. Be sure to hit Tuesday Bingo night at the Saloon. It's a hoot!We fell in love with Packwood and all the beauty of the Mount Rainier National Park. Breathtaking! I will say the photos show a bit more of a bright and modern atmosphere in the house, when it actually is more rustic than we expected. The back patio could use some work. These small negatives would not deter me from renting this house in the future.
This place had everything we needed for a convenient foray into Mount Rainier area hikes, plus the hot tub with strong jets for aching feet afterwards! Cant' say enough about the healing power of strong jets on hiking feet! Hot tub had a full-on lounger seat with jets all along the legs, feet, and back.
We are a set of family friends -- 2 moms bringing 4 teenage sons -- to the park area for a 2-night getaway, and we were so pleased with the accommodations here. Foosball table was a hit with the boys. The place was roomy for sleeping, with 4 little futons around and bedding provided. Three comfy King beds in 3 bedrooms in the main house. Fully equipped kitchen. (Coffee pot is a mini pot, so if you're a big group with more than one coffee drinker, plan to brew several in a row, or just pack your own large maker from home.) Nice knife set, cutting boards, pots and pans, big fridge and freezer, dishwasher. We just had everything we needed for cooking our meals. Oil, salt and pepper, napkins, and the basics are all there. Also, there is a dispenser in the shower with shampoo, conditioner, and soap, which is convenient if you're packing light.
When we had questions on arrival and throughout, the hostess was promptly responsive and helpful, via text. There is no cell service, but the Wi-Fi worked great for us.
From here, there is immediate access to Packwood Lake trail. Fairly quick to Stevens Canyon entrance to Rainier (closed while we were there) and just around an hour each to Nisqually / Paradise entrance along Skate Creek Road and to White River / Sunrise entrance. We hiked at all of these and were able to beat the long lines in the morning.
At this price point, this place is a big win. All other places in the area are ridiculously expensive, so I hope White Pass Wonder remains affordable for families like ours! Hope you get to enjoy it!
The property is well located within reasonable driving distance of Sunrise, Paradise, and other sightseeing (if you are not at the local lodge). Best for a family with three bedrooms (2 upstairs and one downstairs). Well-equipped home/kitchen with all new appliances.
Deepa is very particular and a good communicator. I recommend staying at Packwood!
