Nice stay

We stayed in junior suite. Room is clean but little bit dark. Shower room is very tight. No internet connection. After seeing the mixed review, overall experience is better than my expectation. Location is good but 4 miles away from restaurants.

I stayed here for my first time the first week of August 2025. The front desk guy was so kind and welcoming. I drove from over 6 hrs away and arrived much earlier than i anticipated. They coordinated so I could get into my cabin earlier than my check out time. I was so thankful as I had been up and driving for a long time. The cabin was clean, the lighting was soft (I am audhd and hate big lights) and the mattress was very comfy. the frame was squeaky but the mattress outshined that small detail. I have nothing bad to say about this property. I travel for work and really value a quiet space to relax after a long day. I often encounter loud people but this place was so serene. It is not fancy and the wifi goes out because of the remoteness of the cabin. There is no cell service there. If you go closer to the lodge part, you get better wifi signal. I personally enjoyed no service. I was able to disconnect and enjoy the peace and quiet without distraction. 100/10 stars.

Did the trick for a one night stay close to Paradise! Stayed in Deluxe Cabin and it was clean and shower worked well. Small fridge and microwave w/ coffee maker/coffee made it convenient for simple meals. Easy parking as well.

Reserved 2 cabins, received two rooms. Bed squeaked horribly, lousy wifi, thrift store furniture, noisy dripping shower, uneven sagging floors. Totally not what the website showed. Extremely disappointed. Only good thing was the location.

there was no power the first night I stayed. No light, no flushing toilets. no running water and was told it was due to the weather. however, the weather was fine and other properties around us had power. when the power was restored the next day there was no Wi-Fi or television. it's clearly listed that it's available on the website

Hotel loses power regularly and have no backup

The hotel had no power, heat, running water and no estimate for when it would come back on when we got there at 5PM. They told the patrons that they were going home in 30 minutes :-( ! We left due to cold and safety concerns but the hotel insists on charging us and there is nothing hotels.com can do about it after your investigation.

Good for a night

Good for a night or two. Stayed in cabin 8 and the sheets and towels were clean and the bed was comfortable. The floor is crazy slanted and the decor is really old and dated. Needs a good deep cleaning and some serious updating. Staff was nice, and being close to the park was amazing.

Great location... seconds to the Nisqually Gate. We stayed in cabin number eight. Other people's cars were parked right in front of it both nights. The cabin was dark, ugly furniture and decor, dirty and not flat meaning it was slanted...the floor is not level which is really unnerving and the bathroom smelled awful like a sewer... needs a new seal or something was up with the plumbing.

This was a great place to stay. We booked the family cabin to fit 4 people for 2 nights and it was spacious and very clean. The bathroom was clean and the beds were very comfortable. Check-in was fast and easy. Parking was easy and right outside of our cabin. Our cabin backed to a stream - which was quite beautiful and relaxing. They also have areas for tents and RV’s. The property is safe to walk around. This place is a quarter mile from the Mount Rainier entrance sign so getting to the park is a breeze. Staff were friendly and nice.

Closest to Mt. Rainier NP without having to pay for a premium and limited lodging inside the park. Convenient access to the NP after hours (i.e. free entrance). You can sleep up to 6 in a cabin. Great staff service.

This place it literally at the gates of Mount Rainier and we LOVED it. The staff was all very nice and everything went smoothly. The only cons we had was the beds were very....well we will just say they've seen a lot of travelers. The only other thing food options are very scarce in the area and the ones available can get pretty busy. If they just used a little of the office space for some general snacks and microwave meals, I would imagine that guest would buy them as fast as they could stock them. That being said I would stay here again in a heartbeat and just hope it was just our mattress, and I'd pack more food.
