Great cabin for a weekend of skiing

We booked this about two weeks in advance of a trip from Oregon to Washington to ski at White Pass. From the get-go and throughout our stay, Mike and Grace were amazing in terms of communication and responsiveness. The cabin was super clean, well-stocked and very comfortable. It was also ideally located just 25 minutes from White Pass, which made for the perfect home base for a weekend on the slopes. Just what you want from a Vrbo!

Cozy cabin!

Mike and Grace were lovely to work with. They communicated all the information that we needed for our stay in their cozy cabin. Their cabin was just right for our ski weekend needs and was perfectly comfortable. We hope to stay at their cabin again!

About the host

Hosted by Mike and Grace Childs

Recently retired in Packwood and purchased this cabin as an investment as well as a nice way to stay busy!

Why they chose this property

This property is ideal for us to use as a rental. We live next door. We have been coming to enjoy Packwood since late 70s and finally retired here.

What makes this property unique

This cabin is not in a flood zone. It sits on a hill with a nice view. It has a covered porch with a covered barbeque so it can be used all year around. This cabin also has air conditioning which most cabins in this area do not! There is fishing and hiking nearby. Or there are lots of elk to watch so one can just sit on the deck and relax!

The cabin is located in a nice subdivision out of any flood zones (Skate Creek Terrace). In the event of of snow we recommend a 4 wheel drive as the driveway is steep.
