About this property

Cozy Packwood Ski Cabin near White Pass and Mt Rainier

Fantastic cabin in Packwood, WA about a half-hour from White Pass Ski Resort, 15 minutes to Mt Rainier National Park, and about an hour to Paradise.

1 queen bed, 1 bath plus a futon for kids.

- Firepit in back,
- Charcoal BBQ grill with real mesquite charcoal on hand, -
- Free super-fast wifi,
- Netflix and a high-definition 4k TV.

Summers are awesome up here, with tons of fishing and hiking, and it is a great little mountain town to poke around in.

Perfect for photography, wildlife viewing, and bird watching. Walk the creek, walk the lake. Fishing, Hiking, and State Parks are all nearby.

Even though it's small, our updated cabin is about as nice as you will ever find in this low price range. The cabin is beautiful and fully equipped with everything you'll need except food which you can pick up on the way.

About your dog: It's okay to bring your potty-trained, medium-sized dog, but only if you clean up after it. Only one dog and no other animals are allowed. If it's a barker, then please leave it at home. There is a $50 non-refundable pet fee.

It's really important to us that your stay is comfortable, easy, and meets all your expectations.
Thank you.

Great base camp to ski White Pass
We found a spot on the calendar for a quick two-night trip to ski white pass with the kids. This cozy little cabin was just right. Simple, clean, easy access to Packwood and a quick drive to the top of the pass. We will be back!

Cozy Cabin Next to Mt Rainier
We spent 3 days in Packwood at this cozy cabin celebrating our anniversary. We chose it because of its proximity to the national park. The check-in process was easy and it had all the basics thus allowing us to spend more time in the outdoors.

Great Spot to Get Away
This cabin is cute and cozy, and located in the woods, but still close to town. It’s a great place to get away from the busyness of life and just relax.

Absentee owner/unresponsive relies on neighbors to fill in
The issues noted below were also written in the host's guestbook by other renters (and were not torn out yet) 1) Ants crawling all over the tub, numerous dead ants on the windowsills 2) Instructions to enter house had 2 different door codes in the email, that took a bit to figure out 3) Caretaker/cleaner (Beverly) listed in the instructions has not been under contract with the owner for at least 2 years. However they were very kind and brought us a portable heater for the bedroom. She said this happens every so often as the owner has not updated the information in a long time. VRBO said "heat" is not listed in the property amenities so they could not do anything for me. 4) The biggest issue I have is with a host who lives 2 hours from the house, sending outdated/incorrect information and unreachable to resolve even minor situations. VRBO was also unable to contact the owner, and at the time of this review no communications or apologies. This property has potential, but until the owner steps up and makes things right, I would not recommend anyone renting this property.

Cozy Cabin!
This cabin was absolutely perfect! It was cute, clean and had everything we needed. We stayed here to be close to Mount Rainer and to explore the local trails. It was great to be able to sit outside on the front porch at night. We also loved watching the elk just down the street. We had a great stay! Thanks for sharing your cabin with us!

Nice comfortable cabin
Nicely set up cabin. We did some great hikes nearby and relaxed on the big comfortable couch in the evenings and drank coffee around the fire pit in the mornings (we didn’t make a fire) The WiFi worked great and we watched a couple movies on the big screen that was available.

Perfect Rainier basecamp
This place is a little bit rustic, but has a ton of charm and everything you could need for a great trip to Rainier. All the necessities to make yourself a great meal, a fire pit to relax by, and great wifi too! Host is very responsive and helpful

Dusty place
This place needs some TLC and a deep cleaning. Dead bugs on the window. We had to kill about 10 giant flies that would not stop buzzing. Very dusty and pans could use an update. They had lots of asian condiments and a rice cooker, which was nice.

It’s “ok” for the price…
Over all the property was fine to stay at and the host was easy to communicate with but I was a little disappointed. The listing says there is a hot tub, but there is no hot tub. The property was moderately clean but still some cobwebs. Also the shower window instead of curtains (for privacy) was spray painted?. It should also be noted that the cabin is I between two busy roads. I do t want to be harsh, it just didn’t live up to the listing

Rugged cabin
This older cabin met the requirements of our short stay and was affordable. We’re a bit spoiled, so we didn’t quite fit in with the wilderness aspects. I’m sure those who go mainly to ski or enjoy winter sports will enjoy the cozy, rugged cabin.

Quiet retreat
This was a cozy little cabin. We had everything we needed for a longer stay. There is only a washer, no dryer. This was in the property description, but just wanted to make that known. Very quiet area. We could hear a loud neighbor down the road for a bit, but that did not disturb our quiet time at night. There was some clutter around the outside, but that was not a deal breaker. Nice spot to stay for a couple days.

Perfect Getaway
My partner and I really enjoyed our stay at this Packwood cabin. It was perfect to come back to and relax after spending long days in Mt. Rainer. The cabin was equipped with all the essential and then some, it’s close to town, hiking trails, and the BDR. Nights were super peaceful with the outdoor/indoor fireplace (wood provided), cold a/c, and an extremely comfortable bed with lots of blankets to keep warm. Thank you John for being an amazing host!
