"We could not have asked for a better experience than we had at this cabin. The work that has gone into it's restoration is clearly a labor of love. From the physical setting to the well appointed kitchen, it was everything that we needed. Our only regret is that we didn't have more time to savor sitting on the porches and decompressing. As an added bonus, the location is the perfect jumping off point to Goat Rocks Wilderness Area, as well as elk viewing from the back porch!"
"Great little affordable stay! Unfortunately the restaurant wasn’t open when we stayed, but otherwise, felt like we got what we paid for. Great for a night’s stay before we went to Mt. Rainier."
"Stayed one night in order to do some hiking nearby. Cabin was clean, comfortable, and quiet. Loved the whole vibe of the place. The only inconvenience was the restaurant is not open for breakfast. They did prepare some egg sandwiches for us the night before and we heated them in the microwave. Pro tip- the gas station/coffee shop across the street serves freshly prepared grab-and-go breakfast burritos and good coffee. They open at 7 am."
"We stayed here for my wife's birthday with a few friends. Its a really nice house with easy lake access and very secluded. There's lots of space for people to lounge both inside the house and on the deck which has great views. We really enjoyed swimming and paddle boarding on the lake, and lewis falls was also less than an hour away and a fun easy hike. This is a great place for a large family and friends get together."

"We are a family of 3 visiting the Mt Rainier National Park. This place was very conveniently located between Randle and Packwood. The to-and-fro from the park was a breeze. We had a bit of a hitch reaching the property initally but the host was very much reachable and pointed out the right direction. The property itself was well equipped with all the amenities and we were sad that we couldn't experience the hot tub. The path to Cowlitz Creek was a bit messy, with a small creek running through and muddy soil. But we had a good laugh going to the river. Could have been less of a mess if some logs were placed to cross it. The WiFi signal could have been better because it was very weak and the calls wouldn't connect properly. Otherwise, this was a beautiful location, and we would definitely come back to this property if we need to visit Mt Rainier again."
