About this property

Spacious Family Vacation Retreat!

The home is located in the small town of Packwood, Washington. Its remote location and small-town charm have a relaxed vibe and is a great place to relax and recharge from your busy life.

Our home is close to Mt. Rainier National Park (12 miles), Gifford Pinchot National Forest (5 miles) and White Pass Ski Resort (20 miles) where you can enjoy many outdoor activities including, hiking, skiing, snowboarding, hunting, fishing, snowmobiling and bird & wildlife watching.

There is a fire pit and wood burning fireplace, but you will need to provide your own wood. During the summer a burn ban may go into effect for all of Lewis County. During this time, the use of the fire pit and fireplace may be prohibited.

We do not allow smoking inside of the home or near the open windows.

Beautiful Mountain Getaway

Our stay was wonderful at this spacious home close to downtown restaurants and coffee. We were greeted by elk in the yard and beautiful mountain views steps from the front door. Cannot thank Jason enough for providing us this lovely place to stay and his quick responses to all of our questions!

Really great accommodations. Very classy. Clean, roomy, very comfortable. Backyard is wonderful, fire pit, grill, and jacuzzi. Game boards, puzzles and playing cards for the family. Two TVs. Comfy furniture. Most importantly we had an emergency (hit a pot hole coming back from hiking and bent a rim, blew a tire) hosts were very friendly and accommodating. We are very grateful.

Amazing place with great amenities. We were three families with kids and lots of games and activities to do. We had bought few games from home but realised the property had large collection of board games with table tennis and arcade as well. Our kids enjoyed a lot and we because of the hot tub. Overall I’ll definitely be booking this in future if I’m staying near Mt. Reiner. Personal recommendation, book for two nights. We only did one night and felt it was too short

Stayed for 2 nights 9/1-9/3, just 2 of us and it was better than advertised. Well equipped, well stocked, very comfortable beds. The owners have gone beyond in making it a wonderful rental. Could easily hold 6-8 people comfortably. Owners were fabulous with communication. A no stress rental!!

This Packwood house was a perfect place for a Mt Ranier hiking trip. We were well situated behind and near the restaurants in town and were less than a 20 minute drive to the Steven's Canyon entrance into the national park. The yard was full of fruit trees and bushes, which both we and the neighboring elk families enjoyed. The patio deck was a perfect place to relax and enjoy the perfect weather and nice scenery. The house was so comfortable- a real standout for a group or large family. Plenty of seating, a stocked kitchen, double washer /dryer with ping pong and pac-man in the garage, comfortable beds and bedding, good shower pressure, and other personal touches to make us feel welcome. There were even hiking books and maps to use. This was an exceptional property and we would visit again in a heartbeat!

Our experience was fantastic. The property was well maintained, with very clear instructions. The walk ability around Packwood was also a bonus. We enjoyed our time on Mt. Rainier and all the side trails on the way up. The owners were very receptive and responsive to questions. I would highly recommend this property.

Comfortable, spacious home

We loved our stay in Packwood. The house felt like a home and had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, the linens and towels were clean and nice. Some rentals feel like you are not supposed to cook there. This place has everything you need to make and serve a meal. We enjoyed the hot tub after skiing at White Pass. The location was nice, you can walk to the brewery, restaurant and grocery store. The ping pong table was fun and the area is beautiful. We would love to come again .

The property was exactly as described. Every part of the process was well documented and the owners had labeled everything that might cause confusion. There was more than enough kitchen supplies, sheets, towels, and blankets. Can’t recommend this property enough.

Wonderful Home in Packwood

My group of 8 had a wonderful stay. The photos and description are very accurate. Although no questions came up during our stay, communication from the hosts was clear and timely. The home was a short walk into town with a grocery store just down the road. I would highly recommend this home for any groups visiting the Packwood area.

About the host

Hosted by Jason Schultz

Host profile image
We're from the greater Vancouver, WA and fell in love with Packwood when visiting to ski at White Pass. We now take every excuse we can to visit and enjoy everything Packwood, Mt. Rainier and White Pass have to offer.

Why they chose this property

We love being walking distance to town! Once we arrive, we walk everywhere (grocery, dinner and brewery), only using the car when heading out to our next adventure.

What makes this property unique

The 2,000 sq ft home sits on a large corner lot 2.5 blocks off the main street. Our home is on a quiet lot with a large, wooded area across the street. You are walking distance to all the shops, restaurants & bars Packwood has to offer, while still enjoying the relaxing mountain town, including the resident Elk who often wander through the yard.
