Very nice place. Everything was very clean and comfortable. Close to both Mt Rainier and the town of Ashford. We had 6 in our group and never felt crowded or cramped. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

We spent the night at this cabin to celebrate my daughter’s 16th birthday. The teens loved the hot-tub and s’mores around the fire pit. The house was well set up. We had everything we needed. The house was clean and decorated thoughtfully. The living room offered a comfortable place for the kids to lounge and watch TV. The Nintendo game set up was a hit!

The cabin was fantastic. It was better than the pictures described. Beds were very comfortable; everything was clean and tidy. Only drawback was we couldn't get the fireplace to come on, and the coffee maker could have been cleaned better. Lots of Peace and Quiet. Overall, the house met all our needs and then some! I will definitely stay again.

We loved this place! 6 adults had plenty of space. Beds were comfy, showers were hot, WiFi was solid! Plenty of kitchen utensils for cooking and eating in. We loved the French press. When the windows were open, there was a great breeze, so no need for AC. It was a short drive to MRNP—which was incredible. Thanks for the heads up about stocking up on groceries before getting to town. The hot tub and back yard space were really nice for relaxing. Besides hiking in the park, we also did the Mount Rainier scenic railroad ride and paddled around on Alder Lake. We are already discussing a return trip to the area and would definitely stay in this rental again.

Response from VrboOwner on 16 May 2026
Unfortunately, this guest did not actually stay at our cabin. Due to a VRBO reservation system error, the property was double booked and we had to ask for the reservation to be canceled before check-in. While we understand the frustration this caused, the guest did not experience the cabin, amenities, or stay itself. We are currently working with VRBO regarding the removal of this review, as it does not reflect an actual guest stay.
