It is a very nice hotel. Just a little run down, but the staff was great. And it was only a few yards from the entrance to RMNP. Which was great. We went in early and was able to get parking easily.

We loved the cabins. They were clean and enough room for the 2 of us. The grounds were well maintained. Great location to the park entrance, a 2 minute walk to the welcome.sign. The only downside was they did not have any ice machines, extra toilet paper and we had to ask for a hair dryer.

This is a step up from camping outdoors. I wanted to put a show on for my kids but literally only one channel worked. I found multiple bugs in the room. The beds are very shaky. Location is great! Literally feet from the entrance of Mount Rainier. Parking was easy and we were fortunate to have quiet neighbors. The furniture and decor is super random in these rooms.

Cabin was clean and roomy. The street light and noise were a bit too loud. Bees were comfortable, shower hot. As close to the park as you can get.

Great location and had amenities needed for a visit to a National Park. If you're use to luxury hotels you likely won't agree with this review, but it's everything one needs after spending time in nature.

It is dated for sure. The bed was okay and the pillows were poor. Found some Frito crumbs in the rug. Conveniently right at the entrance to Rainier National Park. Good communication.

Great location

Place was only surface clean and beds were okay. We had a mouse problem on one night that kept us awake. We liked the layout of the cabin and it made it easy to get into the National Park

Accomodation ok for mountains, close to Mt. Rainier.The cleanliness was however quite poor, we found 1 dirty towel, left underwear and mess under the beds. The fridge was in very poor condition and leaking. Beds were fine.

The location is great, close to paradise, and only about a 30-minute drive away. The cabins look nice from the outside, but if you’re looking for a truly clean place to stay, this may not be the right choice. There were tons of dog hairs on the bed — I love dogs, but if the linens were properly cleaned, it shouldn’t have been that bad. The carpet and floors also felt very dirty. As for WiFi, I understand the limitations in remote areas, but here it was literally nonexistent. They gave us a password, but the network never connected at all. Overall, the setting is great, but the cleanliness and basic amenities need serious improvement
